The entire pack knew my story: I was Alpha Lucian Black's staunchest follower, and his fated mate. Ninety-nine times, he tried to break our bond—all for his delicate childhood friend, Violet. I left a pregnancy test proving I carried his pup, then vanished in a cruise ship catastrophe. Five years later, I returned to this North American metropolis as a renowned top designer. Our old story was now a silly joke, passed around in hushed whispers. Word had it Lucian went mad. He threw himself into the freezing sea for me, found nothing. He emptied every resource he had to search, in vain. We met again at a charity auction. His bloodshot eyes locked on the boy by my side. His voice was hoarse and ruined. "A miracle… He's my child." I sipped red wine calmly, a cold smile on my lips. "Lucian, there are no miracles for traitors." The hundredth rejection? I'll be the one to make it.
