Chapter 1 My face pressed against the damp, muddy earth, my fingers plunging deep into the mire, I found myself in a desperate situation. The monster who had my leg in his grip possessed strength far above my desire to flee. Despite my sadness, a spark of resolve burned within me, prompting me to resist. I managed to flip onto my back by twisting my body with all my power, taking advantage of the chance to toss handfuls of muck at his face, temporarily disorienting him.The stakes were enormous, and my life was on the line. There was little chance of survival, and I didn't have time to catch my breath or seek relief. I was racing against the unrelenting passage of time, straining my weary legs to carry me along the perilous path in quest of a haven.I propelled myself forward, pushing through the murky waters, and navigating the hazardous terrain covered with the wreckage of the rainstorm. Though my body screamed in pain, I continued, seeking safety behind the shade of a gigantic tre
Chapter 2 As I returned to the mansion with Adam and Edward, the pack's home where the rest of our kind lived, I encountered a hostile environment.Ruth Lane, the silver-haired woman with a heart as cold as ice, grasped my neck in a vicious hold, her desire to kill me. Ruth had always had feelings for Levine, but her desire to spend the night with him had gone unfulfilled since he had never given her the opportunity. In her view, I was nothing more than a threat."I will end you," Ruth screamed, her rage boiling over."Show some restraint, at least until the truth is revealed," said Adam, moving quickly to keep her at bay."There's nothing left to uncover when everyone already knows the truth," said Ruth, her tone mocking.Ruth was not alone in her hatred. Other pack members glared at me with venom, their gazes like scorching arrows searing my heart. I could only avert my gaze, avoiding any type of eye contact with the gathered crowd. As the crowd gathered, Adam stepped forward, putti
Chapter 3 I made my way towards the designated area where the accused stood, guided by the Omegas, and entered the courtroom filled with the entire pack. The air was thick with suspense and judgment, and the tension was apparent.The judge's seat was taken by Xavier Ronan, the Alpha of the Oak Pack, who was dressed in a deep brown cloak. Despite his youth, he radiated authority and leadership. Aside from him, another judge named Leia Gamora piqued my interest. She appeared to be around thirty years old, with her blond short hair, golden brown brows, and pale skin.I was unprepared to face my husband, the guy who professed love for me, seated as the judge presiding over the trial that would determine my destiny under the Oak Pack's statutes.Xavier arrived, his cloak wrapped over my cold figure. It protected me from the pack's probing eyes, which could see through the tiny gown that barely covered me. Many were surprised and upset by his actions because they had expected him to treat m
Chapter 4 I lay on the chilly floor of the poorly lighted dungeon, encircled by my thoughts and the weight of a broken heart. The pack members' heated protests pierced the air as their voices rebounded through the walls. To keep my sanity, I concentrated on filtering out the angry voices, instead of delving into the depths of my psyche.I did not know how the other day had arrived so quickly; I felt someone's presence in my half-sleep; if that person wanted to harm me, he would have done it sooner; why did the person take a risk to come by?A soft creaking sound entered my ears, jolting my frozen body awake. I struggled to catch a glimpse of the stranger before he vanished into the darkness, my vision fuzzy.My attention was drawn to the door for a brief moment, and my interest peaked. I rose slowly, ignoring the throbbing anguish in my damaged body. My actions were led by determination as I approached the door with caution, opening it slowly and deliberately, aware of the creaking so
Chapter 5 Back in time seven months.Reality morphed into genuine dreams in the blink of an eye, a concoction of anxieties and elation swirling within me. It was undoubtedly real, but it felt like a dreamâa dream full of amazing beauty.Have you ever felt the enthralling ecstasy of love? It's an indescribable emotion, a profound connection that sweeps you off your feet and envelops you in a cocoon of care and devotion. And there I stood, on the verge of a life-changing event, preparing to go on a journey with the man who had stolen my heartâLogan Jareth.He was more than a boyfriend; he was my soulmate, the one who adored me flaws and all. The level of his affection left me wondering what made me so special in his eyes. The anticipation was mixed with joy and a tinge of dread as I prepared to present myself to him, dazzling in a bridal gown.I walked down the aisle with a bouquet of lovely blossoms, an immaculate white maxi dress, and an exquisite long veil cascading around me, touchi
Chapter 6Logan, who was about to take his last breath, was still looking over me with teary eyes. This was a traumatic experience for both of us.We were just celebrating the best moment of our lives a few minutes ago; who would have predicted that things would go so wrong? Our hopes and dreams were crushed.Xavier moved in closer to kiss me. How could I let strangers kiss me so soon after the meeting? My eyes were welling up with tears.When their gazes were fixed on us, they were all waiting for the kiss. I held my breath as Xavier leaned in closer, looking into my eyes for a brief moment.His scent was unfamiliar to me, and he was too close to my lips. I clutched my hand, wanting to beat him, but any wrong move would result in Logan's death.Xavier leaned in closer to my ear and said, "Our kiss is due." before leaning back."Get the car ready; the bride wants to leave," said Xavier to Edward."Sure," said Edward politely, motioning for another member to leave.They all left while L
Chapter 7 I found myself in a room full of well-wishers congratulating me on a wedding that never happened. It took nearly two hours to welcome everyone while they continued to refer to me as the Alpha's bride, a status I had never earned.Though most of them appeared to be polite, there were a few who gave off an uneasy vibe. Perhaps it was my inexperience that caused me to be too ready to judge, but I was a great believer in trusting one's intuition.I couldn't help but think about the complicated game fate was playing with my life when I was alone in the room. The grandeur that surrounded me was both captivating and envious. The tiled floors featured elaborate designs in bright colors, Flowers adorned every accessible surface. The enormous chandeliers lighted the space, throwing a soothing glow on the surroundings. I sought refuge at the foot of the king-size bed, its plushness creating a sense of security.The aroma of fresh air was carried by a gentle breeze, as was the moonlight

Chapter 105"You will," he said firmly, even though he always wanted me to give up.His constant efforts to break me were wearing me down, leaving me weak despite my best efforts to appear powerful in his company.As the sound of Elodie's approaching footsteps aroused Xavier, I remained in the cell with Vera. She was casting spells that rendered Felix and Marina asleep and concealed their activities from curious eyes."I think we can discuss now in peace," said Elodie, turning to face Xavier on her right, who was slightly to her left."I am right here on your left side," said Xavier to Elodie, when she was too far away to notice his direction. "How are you doing, Hina?" Or should I call you Vera?" mocked Elodie."I'm better than you, at least I don't swallow the innocent's soul," answered Vera defiantly.Soul? The word grabbed my interest, and I noticed Xavier staring at me quietly. Though he tried to hide it, his eyes were filled with despair and anxiety. However, I could see the exp
Chapter 104 The mood in the room was tense and charged with emotion. I stood outside, seeing Xavier in an unusually vulnerable state. His tears streamed freely, and my heart swung back and forth between pity and bitterness.As Elodie feverishly tried to save Levine, her magical chanting filled the air. Despite her efforts, the outcome was bleak. My father's lifeless body flashed before my eyes, and the agony of loss resurfaced, forcing me to relive that terrifying moment.Tears flowed down my cheeks, and I struggled to keep them under control. The sight of Xavier crying elicited contradictory emotions in me. I detested him for everything he had done to me, yet witnessing him suffer stirred my long-buried affection.Elodie's remarks pierced the gloomy air, foreshadowing Levine's waking. "He will wake up soon."When his brother was saved, Xavier remained still, as if stunned by the mental storm. "Well done; now it's your turn to accept your price," he said, a tear coming from his eye.
Chapter 103 Sansa's Pov As Adam approached me warily, I kept saying, "It's not my blood; Bella was attempting to do something stupid."Adam gently grasped my hand and grabbed a handkerchief from his pocket, his face filled with concern. "You need to take care of yourself first," he chastised quietly as he gently cleaned the blood off my forearm. It was then that I realized I'd harmed myself while battling Bella, but the blood wasn't mine."We all want you to be healthy, you're the most loved member of the pack," he said as he wrapped the handkerchief around my arm.I said, "Thank you for saving my life from a wild creature back in the bush," and I exhibited the treated wound wrapped in his handkerchief, "For that." "We should be thanking you," said Adam with a grin. "You came to our aid just in time. I doubt Xavier is appreciative since he was one second away from death.""What do you mean?" I inquired, perplexed."He was there when wild monsters leaped on him, just an inch away fr
Chapter 102What would happen if the other members of the pack discovered them? When Amara's husband passed away, she became free and could be with Jerry legally. Why then did they keep their relationship a secret? Was it unlawful or against the rules of their pack to form a connection with a pack member? Something seemed off, something strange was happening, and as I began to have several questions at once, I started to leave.I looked over the pack members who were cleaning the mansion, arranging new couches, tables, and chairs, and removing damaged furniture from the inside. Nobody was ever prepared for the destruction, and when killing wild creatures became impossible, we all lost hope in life. I was fortunate to kill a wild creature that wasn't immortal; if it had been, Levine and I would already be dead.Members of the pack were acting normally, but I could tell they were all still traumatized. Their eyes remained alert to spot any approaching wild creature.I came to a halt i
Chapter 101 Sansa's Pov Back to the mansionXavier's actions perplexed and upset me. The simple bowl of banana custard had become a symbol of his mistrust or sadistic pleasure in seeing me suffer. He left me alone with a bang of the door, my tears falling nonstop, suffocating me with grief.Escape from this psychopath's grasp appeared impossible. Every breath I took seemed like a weight, as the walls closed in on me, emotionally and physically strangling me.Though I could have chosen Xavier and extended my life, I opted to accept my fate and confront death. The more he tried to dominate me, the more determined I got to resist, no matter what the repercussions were.Logan, my wonderful lover, was the driving force behind my decision. I had made the ultimate sacrifice to save him, gladly giving up my life for his sake. I could only hope that he would understand and forgive me for carrying such a great load on my heart.Walking was difficult in my ecstasy; each step felt like a massive
Chapter 100Sansa's Pov My gaze switched from the dropped knife to my grandfather's face, his eyes filled with a sickening mix of fury and loathing. He despised both my mother and me, and now that my father was no longer protecting me, I had become his primary target.I pushed back against his hard grip on my collar as he grabbed for the knife that had dropped. As he took a few steps back, dragging me closer by the collar, his goal to harm me became evident.I dug my sharp teeth into his wrist, creating imprints that drew terrible screams from him, summoning all of my strength. My actions seemed to aggravate his rage, and he tried to push me away with force.I gasped for air as soon as he let go of my collar, but my relief was fleeting as he flung me into the wall, causing my head to smash into the surface and sending me sprawling to the ground.He rushed toward me, tears flowing down his cheeks, bent on swinging the knife. As I lay helpless and terrified on the floor, he regarded me
Chapter 99Sansa's Pov Shadows danced on the walls as I sat facing my stern grandfather, anxious to solve the mystery of my parents' remarkable love. The air was tense because I knew how he felt about anything non-human, especially my mother, a werewolfâthe very kind he was famed for hunting."Lay me next to your mother when I close my eyes for the rest of my life, and I will rest in peace," my father's ultimate wish to be buried near the woman he loved, my mother, resonated in my thoughts.He recalled their fateful meeting in the bush, where he was hunting to protect the locals from wild animals. He discovered my mother there, injured and in werewolf form. He brought her home and cared for her wounds out of compassion for animals, unknowing of her true nature.When Grandfather Falkor was away, my father nursed her, and to his surprise, she evolved into a human in before of his eyesâa revelation that warmed his heart and spurred an ardent desire to learn more about her.Their bond gr
Chapter 98Sansa's Pov Back in timeAs the rain dropped gently from the twilight sky, each droplet carried the aroma of dust like teardrops, the atmosphere was heavy with sorrow. I was dressed solemnly in a black robe, clutching a half-moon-shaped pendant around my neckâa special present from my father, a keepsake I treasured. It was my habit to touch the pendant whenever I'm feeling down. My mother had given it to him on their wedding day, but fate had passed it on to me after she died shortly after I was born.I stood at my father's grave with my grandfather, Falkor Grant, under a weeping sky. I had hoped for sympathy from him, but his cold stare said it all, making me feel like a weight he refused to carry. The weight of his apathy destroyed my heart, leaving me feeling completely alone and abandoned.He was dressed in a black long coat and holding the umbrella that had previously protected me from the rainâthe same umbrella that my father had used to protect me. He remained there
