Chapter 18%
The moment Maya saw the newborn–those clear, emerald–green eyes like polished jade–her pupils contracted sharply, and a look of pure terror and madness overtook her face
She completely lost her mind. To her, those eyes were the cursed remnants of Sebastian, a sign that she had been “defiled”
Terified of losing everything she had clowed to possess, she wanted to ensure the child would never open his eyes again–so no one would ever know whose child she had birthed.
Unfortunately, as an Omega, she didn’t know that Alpha–blooded newborns are often bom with green eyes–a noble sign of their lineage. The child was, in fact, Weston’s.”
But she didn’t know. All she knew was fear. All she wanted was to destroy the “evidence”
With her last ounce of strength, wearing a twisted smile, she reached out with trembling hands and smothered her own child
The infant’s tiny body twitched a few times under her palm before falling utterly still‚X.
Only when the baby had drawn his final breath did Maya begin to emerge from her haze of madness. She looked at the lifeless child, then down at her own shredded, blood–soaked abdomen. Her gaze brimmed with the desperate will to survive.
With fading consciousness, she cried out for Weston.
By the time he arrived, what he saw was a pool of blood, a dying Maya, and the cold, lifeless body of a newbom.
His hands trembled as he cradled her broken form, gently touching the child who had been murdered by his own mother the moment he came into the world.
That was the moment Weston shattered.
He knew Maya had taken my Alpha power. He believed I was the one who caused her death–the death of the woman he loved and the mother of his child.
Now, the once–proud Alpha who once commanded admiration from countless women knelt before me like a lifeless husk, babbling incoherently in grief and despair.8
But I felt no pity because Maya had brought this all upon herself,
Without a word. I pulled out a thick stack of documents I had long prepared and tossed them at his feet
“Weston,” I said coldly, like a judge handing down a final sentence, “You think she was an innocent victim? Open your eyes and see who she really was.”
Inside those pages was a detailed record of Maya’s every vile deed–8
How she seduced my father, how she conspired to harm my mother how she drove my mother to her death.!!
Her affairs with multiple men, how she used Sebastian’s bloodline, how she framed me, again and again.
How she kidnapped me and my family, and how she manipulated both Weston and Logan, using everyone she could to fuel her Insatiable greed.
Each page was like a knife, slicing away Weston’s illusions and delusions, laying bare the monster he had once loved.
Hands shaking, he picked up the documents and began to read. Page by page, the truth unraveled before him 3
He had fancied himself a sharp businessman, a rising star, but now those black–and–white words tore his pride into shreds.”
The gentle, pitiful Maya he had known was a cunning, heartless woman who used love as her sharpest weapon. The woman he had loved had dragged him, willingly and blind, into hell.
“No… No! That’s impossible!” Weston’s body trembled violently, his gaze hollowing out, his voice reduced to incoherent murmurs.
He couldn’t take it. Everything he had once believed in crumbled like aches.!!
His proud love story, his perfect family was just built on lies.
He clutched his head and screamed in anguish, the sound more beast than man.
Then, finally, he broke down.
Rambling nonsense, laughing and crying, snarling like an animal–he went mad. His mind, torn apart by the truth, had collapsed completely
My guards stepped in and dragged the deranged Weston away
As for Logan–his company had long been evading taxes and couldn’t survive a single audit.
As he left, he asked me, “Did you ever love me?“).
His question made me laugh
When I loved him, he treated me like garbage. When I left him, he clung to me like a leech
When I moved on, he tried to destroy me. And now that he had lost everything, he came crawling back with a pathetic question like that?? Men like them were nothing but a joke.
I rubbed my tired eyes and looked out through the tall glass windows.
It was finally over
Beyond the horizon, the mountains stretched endlessly, bathed in golden sunlight breaking through the clouds.
For the first time in so long, I felt truly at peace.
I once lost everything. But now, I had reclaimed it all
Me family, my child, and the one I love.

“Mom,” I whispered, gazing at the soft moonlight that reminded me of her smile, “I’ve finally avenged you. I have everything you wanted me to have. And I will be happy.”
At some point, Ezequiel had come to stand behind me. He wrapped his arms around my shoulders, pulling me gently into his embrace We stood together, looking out at the starlit sky!!
His hand rested on my growing belly, feeling the joyful flutter of our little wolf pup.
Under the moonlight, we shared a quiet smile.
The road ahead would be long–but we would face it side by side
And welcome every dawn, together.
