I was the lowliest illegitimate offspring of the werewolf clan, bullied and shunned by my people since childhood. When my food was stolen once again and the clansmen cornered me, kicking and punching until I was ready to end my life, Jake Coolidge, the Alpha's Advisor, suddenly appeared. The clansmen who had been beating me were pinned to the ground by stronger wolves. Jake bowed respectfully and said to me, "Ms. Mackey, following the Goddess's guidance, I have come to take you to the palace for the mating ceremony with the Alpha King." Brandon Hancock, the Alpha King, was the leader of all werewolves. Becoming his fated mate meant no werewolf would ever dare to bully me again. I clung to this lifeline and went to the palace to become the mate of that handsome werewolf I had never dared to dream of. After the wedding, I was cautious and tried to please my husband in every way, terrified of making him dislike me. When Brandon noticed, he told me earnestly, "The Luna doesn't need to please anyone, Holly. You only need to do what makes you happy." His strength and reliability gave me great confidence. I smiled more and more often, and even dared to make all kinds of requests under his indulgent gaze. There was only one problem: due to my weak constitution, I had two miscarriages in a row, and each time Brandon had to take care of me for a long time before I recovered. When I became pregnant for the third time, I waited until the pregnancy was stable before quietly going to find Brandon to tell him the news. But instead, I overheard him talking to Jake. "This is the third one. After this, Jessica's body will fully recover. This is what I owe her. As for Holly, she's still young. She can have more children later."
