Chapter: Chapter 6—LYSANDRA—* “My dear sister….I wake up with a gasp, clutching my fingers around my chest, knowing I just had the weirdest dream.My eyes are shut, and I take a deep breath to help me contain the pangs I feel coming from my chest.“It’s okay… you’re okay, just breathe.” My eyes snap open at the unfamiliar voice, and I flinch at the huge, unknown man sitting beside me. Judging from his demeanor, though I’ve never seen him before, only heard of him, I can tell he’s the alpha of the Ironcrest pack.I want to scream and ask what he wants, but the pain emitting all over my body is too intense for a scream; so I just glare at him like my looks could kill while I catch my breath like it’s the last thing I’ll ever do.“Don’t worry, I’ll never harm you.” The man says gently. His voice is thick and heavy, with a tinge of authority, and even a simple word like ‘I’ll never harm you’ feels too powerful to be… genuine. He gets on his feet and walks away, probably to get something.It gives me

Chapter: Chapter 5—LYSANDRA——With my bags in my grasp. I look at the pack house one last time as the night draws nearer before taking a turn and finally leaving. This wretched house will never be missed.I should probably just set the pack house on fire, maybe that way I’ll do them a favor of even becoming families in their afterlife. I glare at the mansion for a while, thousands of memories flooding into my mental screen until I shake my head and make my move. As I wander more into the night, I decide to visit Dr. Lyeon and thank him.Even if everyone does. He doesn’t deserve to be left in the dark about me leaving.I knock on the door of his small wooden infirmary where I know he spends most of his nights sleeping on piles of research papers.It takes three good knocks before I hear the door rattle open to reveal him, looking as sleepy as ever.He studies me for a moment before tilting his head and letting me inside.“You’re finally leaving him,” is all he says, shocking me as if we’ve both planne

Chapter: Chapter 4—LYSANDRA-I stare into the vile eyes of the child I gave birth to on this day six years ago, bright blue eyes that once looked at me with adoration, are now glaring at me with fury and disgust. It looks like he’s about to spit on me. “I’m sorry.” I apologize, like I always do. It’s his birthday, I shouldn’t be mean. “I actually only wanted to give you this,” I rush my words. My fingers tremble around the little wooden horse.Henry’s furious breathing fills the corridor while my own chest struggles painfully for air. Slowly, I lift the gift toward him.“I made this for you,” I whisper.The anger on Henry’s face falters slightly in confusion.“It’s a horse,” I continue softly, forcing warmth into my voice despite the tightness in my throat. “You said one day, when you become Alpha, you would ask for a black war horse. So I carved one for you myself.”Hope flickers weakly inside me as he listens.“It took a while but—Henry shuts me up by snatching the wooden horse and smashing it on

My chest hurts and my stomach drops. “Henry wh—“You’re too ugly,” he snaps, cutting me off, eyes burning as they rake over me. “You’ll scare everyone. I. Really. Don’t. Want. You. There!” He carves his words one after the other and it hits harder than any blade ever could.I stand frozen in the middle of my room, fingers still trembling against the soft red fabric stretched over my body. The dress suddenly feels foolish now. Childish and desperate.Henry points at me with so much disgust it hurts everywhere.“And Aunt Eliza is going with Father,” he continues. “She’ll be there as my mother, not you. She’s pretty and not like you.”There’s a look he’s giving me, one between pity and disgust. Eliza? Mother?. The word should belong to me.I carried him inside me. I nearly died bringing him into this world. I stayed awake through feverish nights holding him against my chest while Edric slept peacefu

Chapter: Chapter 2—LYSANDRA’s POV-Edric looks at me the same way one would look at a child throwing an unnecessary tantrum and proceeds to scoff. “You,” he begins with a snarl. “Always looking for ways to get my attention when I am in the middle of something important. Always”I want to roll my eyes, but I don’t. Grinding his dick into the walls of another woman is somehow more important than his dying wife. How original. I try to speak but his thick voice layers over mine immediately. “I know you, Lysandra.” His gaze sharpens. “I mean, pretending to be sick was one thing, starving yourself and trying to make me look ruthless and buy your lie was another. But now lying about your death. It gets to a point. Enough with your juvenile tricks” He ends his words with a bitter scoff.“I am not lying!” My voice comes out flaccid and I hate it so much.I pull out the thick rolled paper from my sleeves, containing the report Lyeon has recorded. “This is the report from Dr. Lyeon” I huff out a breath.

Your wolf is fading,” I grip the sheets beneath me and look at the old man in front of me.“What?” I say, my voice trembling“There is damage to your bond with your fated mate," He says very carefully like I might shatter right there. "It's the prolonged betrayal from your mate, it has weakened your wolf bond beyond repair. And it will worsen over time and take everything from you if it continues.”Lyeon looks at me pitifully and it kills me. I hate sympathy. But lately I've been a magnet for it.I heave a breath, fluttering my eyes to shoo my tears away.It's no news that my husband of seven years, and Alpha of the Shadowmoon pack is severing our bond as fated mates by fucking his mistress.My marriage has been tragic since the very first day; and has become worse since Eliza Crowe showed

Oh wait.The party, Arthur. I’m at Vanessa’s!My head hurts so badly, and I am trying to recall everything that went down last night so I know where to begin my day.Crap.Why did I drink so much?So much happened at that darn party.I look down at my body and let out an actual scream.Why the heck am I in a robe? I was in a dress last night.The door to the room opens and Arthur walks in holding a spatula and wearing an apron. His hair is tousled and he looks like he’s wrestling a bear.Okay, that’s new.“What! What’s wrong?” He asks, looking at me all worked up.“M-my dress,” I say. “Why am I in a robe?”He lets out a sigh of relief and his tensed shoulders drop.“I thought you were in danger, you screamed because of your robe?

Just what did he do for her that I can’t top? Why is he her entire personality at this point?I sigh, pondering whether I should give up on my search for Leon. Whoever he is, he wins. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to stop trying to get Eleanor to love me.I need her to understand I want her to want me the way I want her and it’s not something I can do in one day. But I’ll get there. “I’m not sleepy,” Eleanor rebukes sighing, she places her chin firmly on my chest and starts looking straight into my eyes.“I’m bored.” She announces. “Go to sleep,” I mutter internally reprimanding myself b

Chapter: Chapter 46—ARTHUR.-I swallow the jealousy burning in my throat as I help Eleanor out of the bath, her skin warm and damp beneath my steady hands. The steam clings to her like a second skin as I wrap a thick robe around her body, securing it snugly against the chill of the room.She’s awake now, but her eyes are glassy, her gaze unfocused, as if she’s moving through a dream. It’s not clear if she knows where she is or who’s beside her — maybe in her mind, it’s not me at all.In the bedroom, she collapses onto the bed, restless, tossing from side to side. Words spill from her lips in half-formed sentences, nonsensical and random… until they’re not.Her hangover will be merciless come morning, and she’ll probably remember none of this, none of the stumbling, none of the bath… none of the moment her voice softened in that drowsy haze and she mumbled a name I’ve grown to despise.Leon.The sound of it still clings to the walls in my head.I hate that bastard. I hate that he’s always one step ahead

Chapter: Chapter 45—ARTHUR.-I’ve never seen Eleanor this drunk. Not once in all the years we’ve spent together as husband and wife. Not at weddings. Not at rowdy office parties where everyone else is swaying and spilling their drinks. Not even during those rare nights when we were alone and she might have let herself loosen up a little.She’s always so composed, so deliberate about her public image, the type of woman who holds a champagne flute for hours without ever actually emptying it. People probably think she’s allergic to alcohol, the way she avoids even the smallest sip. I’ve never questioned it—it was simply who she was.And now? Now she’s leaning heavily against me, her skin warm and flushed, her eyes glazed and struggling to focus. Her hair is damp from splashes of water she probably didn’t notice. The faint smell of wine clings to her breath. Something’s broken her tonight. Something strong enough to pull her past her own rules. My mind immediately goes to Brianna, to that simmering situati

You can make your decision now that my grandma’s not here”I sigh.“Thanks but I feel bad. I don’t think I’ll leave until she gets back. I ruined this dress and if I just leave like that. She’ll hate me”“Again. She’ll never hate you” He says.“Yeah right,” I scoff as I get out of the car.I almost stumble and fall flat on my face but thankfully I don’t. So I take off my shoes and push my heavy body towards the grey house.As I get inside the house I thank the heavens I haven’t left yet because why..

My hands clutch at the ruined silk of my dress, shaking slightly as I realize the damage.This isn’t just a tear. It’s a massacre.

His sudden presence startles me, and before I can say anything, his hands are on my dress— ripping.“What the hell are you doing?!” I scream, clutching the tattered fabric tighter around my body.“I’m helping,” he says flatly, as if he isn’t currently committing a crime against couture.“Are you crazy?” My voice rises an octave.

The clock ticks closer to dusk, and the pressure mounts to complete the decorations before our party guests arrive.I lend a hand where I can, expertly arranging a centerpiece of fresh flowers. Hades burst into the room, Jason perched on his broad shoulders, giggling uncontrollably."You'll make him throw up again," I warn, eyeing Hades's energetic swinging."Aw, he likes it," Hades replies, grinning mischievously, as he makes another sweeping arc."Mommy, I love it!" Jason squeals, his tiny hands grasping Hades's hair.I shake my head, concealing a smile. "If you throw up, don't expect me to come to your aid."Jason's face sets in determination. "I'm four.

The word "home" echoes through my soul, resonating with a depth I never knew I craved. Every step carries me closer to a sense of belonging.As I wander through the pack's grounds, a somber atmosphere envelops me. The usual bustle seems muted, with fewer pack members in sight.

I've yearned to hold my children close, to see the spark in their eyes. And Hades...my mate, my rock.The pack house comes into view, its wooden facade weathered to a warm, golden brown.

The familiar scent of home and family offers little comfort, as the ache within me grows with each step.Until now, I hadn't grasped the depth of great sadness. The hunt, once fueled by determination and hope, has yielded nothing. No sign of Jasmine, no hint of Denzel's whereabouts. The abyss of uncertainty gapes wider, threatening to consume me.As I enter the pack house, my gaze falls upon Enora and Ezra, their hushed conversation halted by my arrival. Their eyes, attuned to my emotions, widen in concern.Ezra, one of our pack's strongest members and a trusted ally had opted to remain behind, watching over Enora and our children while I pursued the hunt. His presence provides a sense of security, allowing me to focus on the search.Now, as Enora and Ezra take in my worn, defeated appearance, they sense the outcome without needing words.
