Chapter 1

My daughter, Cecilia, died on her fifth birthday.Her dad, the Alpha King, Liam Pearce, had promised to spend the day with her, but he went missing on that day.I had to arrange for Cecilia's funeral alone. With an exhausted body and a broken heart, I brought her urn to the amusement park—her favorite place when she was alive.The park was tranquil at night. I had planned to find a quiet corner to cry my heart out. My beloved daughter, Cecilia, had truly left me…"Darling, you can open your eyes!"Before I could shed a tear, a familiar voice rang in my ear.I clenched my fist and covered my mouth when I recognized Liam's voice!"Hm? It's just the Ferris wheel. We've been here many times." The woman beside him pouted, clearly displeased.When the woman turned around, I was beyond shocked to learn that she was a human. Did Liam seriously cheat on me with a human?"Wait a minute, darling. Three, two, one! Sweet Mia, look up! Be ready for my surprise!"Following Liam's countdow

I fell to the ground, looking disheveled, as blood trickled out from the corner of my lips. I couldn't believe this was Liam, whom I had loved since a young age.For him, I took my responsibility as the Luna of Snowdrifter Pack very seriously. I even used my inheritance from my late parents to expand the influence of his pack, only for him to lay a hand on me for a human."Drop it, Liam. You know I don't care about titles and status. All I want is to stay by your side," Mia said to Liam with affection. "Don't hurt your marriage because of me."Once again, she shot me a gleeful smile."Liam, even if you don't love me—even hating me to the point you do not want to see me—our daughter is innocent! Didn't you agree to spend time with Cecilia on her birthday?" I shouted at Liam between sobs when I thought of Cecilia's unfulfilled final wish."It's just a birthday! I'll make it up to her. As for you, you really didn't have to stalk me in the middle of the night. It's cold out here. Go h

Chapter 3

You Were Never There/Spring Sun

I returned to the palace of the Snowdrifter Pack, where Liam and I had been staying after our marriage.Liam and I were childhood friends. He was a prince of the Snowdrifter Pack, while I was the daughter of the richest member of the pack.My parents tragically lost their lives in a rebellion within the pack. Before my mother passed, she begged Liam to shelter me, which he agreed to. Only then did she draw her last breath.Since I had had a crush on Liam from a young age, I mustered all my courage to confess my love.To my surprise, Liam rejected my confession. I had thought he loved me back because he was the one who helped me through the grief of losing both parents. He had hit back at those bullies who harassed me or insulted me because I was an orphan.I could have misinterpreted the intentions behind those actions, but what about the times he'd dried my hair, bought me underwear and pads, and even kissed me on the cheek? I thought he loved me.I was left confused and frustra

"Are you out of your mind?" Liam happened to come downstairs."Liam, help me! Sofia says she wants Cecilia to be the only princess of the Snowdrifter Pack. She doesn't want my child to be born!""Sofia, you never learn your lesson, do you? I've had enough of you and your vicious schemes!" Liam carefully picked up Mia and yelled at me.Looking at the two of them, I suddenly burst into laughter. "Haha... Liam, you fool!" I shot Mia a hateful glance. "Fine, I'll grant your wish! Liam, inform all members of the royal family that we're getting divorced tomorrow!""Good! Remember—you said that! Don't back out at the last minute! You think rejecting me will make me care about you again?" Liam sneered. "You'll regret this! Mia, let's go!" The two of them slammed the door and left.Without time to calm myself down, I packed up the belongings of my deceased daughter and used the werewolf spiritual power to erase every trace of the life we had shared. I swore never to return to this disg

"How could this be? This isn't real!" Liam ignored his phone as it slipped from his hand when he got up, rushing to check Cecilia's urn."Liam, as your wife, I had no choice but to accept that you fell in love with someone else. But as a mother, I will hate you forever, and I will never forgive you." I stepped aside, blocking his way. "You are not worthy of touching my daughter.""Don't be like this, Sofia. I had no idea. Why didn't you tell me? You should have told me—this is a serious matter!" Liam stammered, his words incoherent. "Please, just let me hold Cecilia one last time, I beg you." His eyes were filled with tears. How ironic—and I thought Liam would never shed a tear.I hesitated. After all, Liam was Cecilia's father and the man she had longed to see one last time before she passed away.Just as I was about to hand over the urn in my arms, a voice rang out."My dear Liam."Mia had arrived without me noticing. She gently wiped away Liam's tears. Her voice was filled

"Sorry, Liam. I had wanted to bring this secret with me to my grave, but I can't stand Sofia slandering me…" Mia sobbed and buried her face in Liam's chest.I sneered and watched their act coldly, knowing very well that Cecilia was definitely Liam's child."Just speak, Mia. Don't worry about Sofia's reaction. I will take your side if you have evidence." Liam gave Mia a reassuring look."I saw Sofia and Cecilia meeting with a man—even my werewolf guards saw it too! The three of them seemed very close as if they were a family."Mia responded with a determined look. "And it happened not just once."Liam turned to the guard beside Mia. The guard nodded with an uneasy expression."Liam, I can't believe that you did not grieve when you learned about Cecilia's death. Instead, you tried to snatch her ashes from me! You've been suspecting me all along, haven't you?" I chuckled coldly."Mia, as a human, you might not be aware of the rules in the werewolf world. When a child dies, her pa

"Sorry, I don't need that. I will never repeat the mistake of being the mate of a dimwit." Since I had already completely severed my mate bond with Liam, I was ready to leave this noisy place. "By the way, as the mighty Alpha King of the Snowdrifter Pack, I trust you wouldn't embezzle your former mate's wealth. Please return, with interest, all the inheritance funds of my parents that the Snowdrifter royal family misappropriated over the years."With that, I turned and left the hall without looking back.Returning to the house where my parents and I once lived before their passing, my once hardened heart suddenly softened. I recalled their wishes for me—to simply live a happy life.Before, I had placed all my hopes for happiness on Liam, and that was the biggest mistake I had ever made.I thought I should take Cecilia's ashes and leave this place for good to start a new life.So, I booked a flight for next week. I decided to visit my mother's homeland, the Lowland Pack—a place

"Sofia, you can just take with you the initial investment you made with your inheritance." Liam said shamelessly."What did you say?" I was shocked by the extent of Liam's audacity."What—are you not satisfied? But Sofia, wasn't it you who pressured my parents with your money and forced me to marry you in the first place? You've achieved your goal. "Now that we're separating, we owe each other nothing if I return the initial amount to you. Right?""Liam, you're despicable!" I cursed angrily."Please wait a moment, honorable Alpha King and Ms. Tinsdale. Could there be some misunderstanding?" The royal treasurer interjected with a puzzled expression, "Wasn't your marriage to save the Snowdrifter Pack?""Save the Snowdrifter Pack? What are you talking about?" Liam was equally confused."Back then, the Snowdrifter Pack faced a century-long winter, and the other wolf packs—our allies—refused to help. Some even imposed economic sanctions on us. "So, the former Alpha King and Luna d

"Wait a moment, Sofia! Are you planning to reclaim all your properties? Could you give me a ride on the way? I'll pack my things and move out—I promise I won't trouble you," Mia said, stopping me."Aren't you afraid I'll take this chance to kill you and avenge my daughter?" I lowered my voice as I met Mia's gaze."My dear Liam, I want to go back with Sofia. She has suffered all these years. I want to move out as soon as possible and return the villa to her. This is my way of apologizing to her," Mia pleaded softly with Liam.Liam had no time to respond to us; he was still lost in thought, processing the words I had just said to him.Mia dragged me out of the Royal Treasury."Sofia, I didn't expect to witness such competency in a werewolf like you. You're an orphan, yet you managed to fulfill the role of Luna so well." Now that we were alone, Mia dropped her pretense."I'm not as capable as you—a mere human who played the Alpha King of the Snowdrifter Pack like a fiddle," I shot b
