The person on the other end sighed. “And then? You’re just going to turn her into your mistress?”
at a time.”
Thome didn’t respond right away. He took a long drag from his cigarette before slowly exhaling After what felt like forever, he spoke, his voice soft. “We’ll just have to take things one step The ache in my chest was crushing. I lay in bed, tears clouding my eyes, feeling like a fool after seven long years. I’d never truly known you, Thome.
If you’d stopped loving me, why couldn’t you just say it? Why string me along instead of being honest?
My wolf let out a heartbroken whimper.
Was he afraid I’d cling to him? Is that why he tried to send me away during his mating ceremony with someone else?
The whole thing could be easier.
Thorne, I would disappear from your world as you wish.
I asked him, “When’s the flight?”
“Two days from now,
I smiled. “Alright, I’ll go.”
Thorne’s shoulders eased, and he reached to ruffle my hair, but I stepped aside without a word.
He hesitated, then forced a smile, “How about a meal together before you go?”
I considered it and nodded.
Tomorrow marked our seventh mating anniversary.
Let’s make this a proper farewell, laying everything bare, so this love can end where it began on that sacred day.
The next day, I arrived early at the restaurant we’d agreed on. He showed up as well. However, Liora was also with him.
*Ophelia, the Alpha and I were just nearby, so we swung by together, Hope I’m not crashing anything?”
I shook my head, but inside, I felt a sense of regret. This last farewell dinner would never be perfect.
Thorne ordered an entire table of vegetarian dishes,
Llora laughed, noticing the menu. “Alpha, you ordered all vegetarian. This probably isn’t Ophelia’s taste, is it?”
Theme shrugged. “You’re vegan. No meat for you.”
He called the waiter over and had her replace Llora’s meat sauce pasta with a plate of basil pasta
Liora pouted, grumbling about Thome being too controlling

Thome responded with a fond knock on her forehead. “If I didn’t keep an eye on you, you’d end up puking, and then I’d be the one dealing with it.”
Liora stuck out her tongue. “You’re overreacting. It’s because you care about me too much.”
The two of them flirted openly in front of me, and I watched silently, feeling nothing but cold detachment inside.
Just as we were eating, someone suddenly shouted, “Fire!”
“It’s on fire! Let’s get out of here! Come on!”
The crowd erupted into chaos, scattering in every direction.
As I stood up, I saw someone dart past me.
Then, I watched as Thorne wrapped Liora tightly in his arms, rushing toward the exit without looking back.
For a moment, time itself wavered–and there he was, that eighteen–year–old boy, standing in the same spot where he’d once shielded me without a second thought.
I stood frozen, watching them disappear into the distance. The truth struck me like a knife to the ribs: our mate bond had been unraveling long before I’d let myself acknowledge it.
“It’s time to let our mate go,” my wolf whispered.
I nodded, “But let’s get out of here first.
We didn’t stop until we reached a safe place, and Thorne finally turned around. He looked at me from a distance, dumbfounded
“I was in such a rush, I didn’t mean to ”
I smiled and interrupted him. “It’s fine, I understand.”
Soon, Thorne had confirmed my travel plans, and I had packed my bags.
After double–checking that this room no longer held any trace of in my palm
ace of me, I looked around the
ound the empty pack house, took out a silver knife, and made a small cut
“I, Ophelia Thornfield, reject Thome Ashen, Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack, to be my mate
Severing the mate bond wasn’t as painful as I had imagined. My wolf only felt relief
“We’re free,” my wolf whispered.
Once everything was done, I grabbed my suitcase and left without a second glance.
Of course, I didn’t go on that trip. Instead, I returned to my parents‘ house to prepare for my mating ceremony. After all, my wedding day was fast approaching.
Meanwhile, Thome was busy with companying Liora trying her wedding dress and had no time to think about me.
The wedding day came, and it was also the first time I met my betrothed, Alpha Xander
I had to admit, my parents had good taste. He looked even better in person than in his photos. Both his appearance and his build were impeccable
The wedding procession was a sight to behold. I got into the car, and our grand convoy rolled forward in a wave of celebration.
When we passed another bridal party heading the opposite way, both sides paused in unison so that the brides could exchange their bouquets.
The window slowly lowered. Inside the other car, Thorne turned around, then our gaze met.
A storm of emotions surged in his gaze. His voice trembled with disbelief.
“Ophelia, how can it be you? What are you doing here?”
