Chapter 7

Author: Margot
Charlotte didn't realize that the world didn't revolve around her.

Those who insulted Enzo and her could generally be divided into two categories.

The first group was Enzo's enemies, mostly from rival packs or those who eyed his Alpha position. They wanted to use this opportunity to create trouble for Enzo and wear him down.

These people weren't much weaker than Enzo in ability. They were like a pack of hyenas lurking in the dark, watching intently, and would never pass up a chance to bring Enzo down.

The second group was Enzo's friends and subordinates, but they were completely disillusioned with his character because of my death. The fact that they dared to express their stance openly showed that they would no longer support Enzo as their leader.

These two groups had one thing in common—they were not to be messed with.

Charlotte's fans gradually grew unsatisfied with attacking me alone. They looked at the earlier messages, found those who had previously criticized Charlotte, an

    Charlotte was nearly driven insane by public opinion. The more arrogant she once was, the more regretful she was now.All of her former fans had turned against her and begun cyberbullying her.In addition, countless righteous werewolves condemned her. They didn't just curse and condemn her—they dug up everything about her. They cursed at every family member, friend, ex-boyfriend, and ambiguous relationship one by one.No one was perfect. Beneath a seemingly flawless surface, there could lie filth beyond imagination.Charlotte once claimed her parents were loving and that her family was wealthy and happy.It didn't take long for someone to discover that she wasn't her father's biological daughter—she was the product of her mother's affair with an ex-lover.Charlotte's father was furious and rejected her mother that very day.In her rage, Charlotte's mother slapped her over 30 times and damaged her hearing.Most of her close friends were similar to her—good at twisting the truth

    Charlotte exclaimed in surprise, "Enzo? How did you end up like this? Do you still recognize me?"Enzo had just taken a suppressant for his aggressive tendencies, and though his emotions were extremely dulled, he still recognized her.Enzo slowly turned his head toward her and said, "Charlotte."Charlotte nodded frantically, then threw herself tearfully into his arms and aired her grievances during this time."Enzo, please get better soon… Without you by my side, they've all been bullying me."Enzo's gaze was vacant. He seemed to be half-listening, half-ignoring her as he remained lost in his own world.Perhaps due to all the fear and anger she had bottled up during this time, Charlotte snapped and disregarded the fact that he was a patient. She yelled at him, "How long are you going to keep lying to yourself? Lynn is dead! She's not wandering out there, and you will never find her again!"She deserved to die. She came between us and plotted to get pregnant with your child! Sh

    Enzo Chetson drove me to a prenatal checkup in the eighth month of my pregnancy. On the way through the hunting grounds, he received a phone call."Enzo, I'm back from my trip. Did you miss me?"I recognized that voice as Charlotte Wilbur's—soft and sweet, each word captivated him. This was how she always talked to my mate.I held my breath and looked at Enzo. Sure enough, his expression suddenly changed—he looked excited and expectant.Charlotte continued, "My friends are throwing me a welcome-back party. You're definitely coming, right? I'll be waiting at our old spot."Enzo replied without hesitation, "Okay, I'll be there right away."When I realized he was about to leave, I instinctively grabbed the hem of his shirt and looked at him with teary eyes. "Enzo, don't go. You promised to accompany me for the checkup. You said you had forgotten her and only wanted to live a good life with me. Have you forgotten?"Enzo mercilessly shook off my hand. Without even looking at me, he s

    With a mix of nervousness and excitement, I told Enzo the news.It felt like my heart was being split in two. One half told me not to be delusional. Enzo would surely make me get rid of the pup. He didn't love me—he loved Charlotte.The other half asked what if—what if he allowed me to keep the pup? After all, I was his true mate.A true mate meant a resonance of souls, a call of instinct—it was the only tenderness werewolves couldn't resist. Was I truly that unappealing to him?Enzo stared at me with a deep gaze, and I couldn't read his thoughts. After a moment of silence, he said, "I'll claim you. Let's get married."I stood frozen, overwhelmed with joy and excitement. I even cried tears of happiness.After years of unrequited love finally being fulfilled, I threw myself into his arms and sobbed uncontrollably.Enzo cupped my face and gently wiped my tears away. "You look ugly when you cry. Don't cry anymore once you marry me."I was so overwhelmed that I couldn't say a word

    Enzo slammed the door and left, and I had no idea how long it took me to catch my breath again.In a daze, I walked out of the house without taking anything with me.I stared blankly ahead as I wandered aimlessly through unfamiliar streets.Then, it started raining. I didn't bring an umbrella, and I also had no idea where to hide. The "home" that once brought me warmth and contentment now only suffocated me.Without realizing it, I arrived at the lakeside. My reflection was shattered by the raindrops—just like my broken soul.Perhaps the rain was coming down too hard, for I slipped and fell into the lake. The icy water rushed into my lungs, and I struggled for a moment before stopping.What was the point of struggling? What was the point of living?Maybe dying like this wasn't so bad. After all, I was just a burden to everyone else.But the Moon Goddess must not have heard my plea—because somehow, I opened my eyes again. I hadn't died. When I woke up, Enzo was right there by

    I felt an exhaustion that reached the depths of my heart, so I said nothing and just turned to return to the bedroom.After a while, Enzo came in as well. He hugged me from behind, rested his head on my shoulder, and whispered in an extremely gentle voice in my ear, "Lynn, what you just heard isn't true. I was busy, and it was just something I said to brush them off."I love you, Lynn. That's the reason I'm willing to do all of this for you."That was the first time I'd heard the word "love" from his mouth, but I didn't feel the joy I had imagined—because I no longer dared to believe him.Was his love real or fake? I couldn't tell.Maybe my silence made him notice something, and he continued, "Don't overthink it, Lynn. I told you, I'll treat you well from now on."I know you mind the relationship between me and Charlotte. I promise I'll never think about her again. I'll only think about you. The two of us will live our lives—she'll have nothing to do with it."I really wished I

    My spirit followed Enzo home.…After that, Enzo never attended any gatherings again, nor did he look for Charlotte. Aside from handling some pack affairs, he locked himself in the house.He only did two things at home—drink and try to contact me."Lynn, hurry home. Didn't you want to go watch the moon with me? I'll go.""Lynn, where have you been? Don't test my limits like this.""Lynn, you actually dare ignore my calls? Do you really want me to reject you?""Lynn! If you don't come back soon, I'm throwing out all the flowers you planted!"He sent me hundreds of messages like this every day. He acted like the demon in a mythological bottle—at first, he tried to lure me back with promises, but when I still ignored him, he started threatening me.But I still never responded.Even so, Enzo didn't give up. He thought I was just throwing a tantrum.He kept wrecking things at home. Not only did he throw out my flowers, he also destroyed the nursery I had carefully prepared—the baby clothes

    Sofie snapped, "You were the one who left her in the hunting grounds without even assigning a single guard to protect her!"You were rushing to attend Charlotte's welcome-back party—you couldn't even wait a single minute. Even though your Luna had always been frail and even though she was going into premature labor, you didn't care.""You threw her out of the car!" Sofie emphasized every word through gritted teeth.Enzo's lips quivered uncontrollably as he staggered to his knees.He stammered, "I-I didn't know there was such a deep trap there. She said her stomach hurt, but I thought it was…""You thought she was faking it just to throw a tantrum," Sofie said mockingly. "She never once lied to you in her entire life, and this is what you thought of her. Her death was truly in vain."In your heart, Lynn must have been nothing more than a dog you raised, right? She would come when called and go when dismissed. Even with the pup, she still didn't matter as much as a single strand of
