Chapter 8
Inside the envelope was a diagnosis for depression, showing that the condition had progressed to a moderate stage, and medication was no longer enough to control it. The doctor recommended surgical treatment.
There was also a record of my conversation with the pack doctor specializing
– Doctor, I’m really so tired. Every day, when I open my eyes, I just want to

die.
–
Can you tell me when you feel this way the most?
Every time Damon and I argue, I feel so much pain I want to kill myself, but I can’t die. I still owe the pack, and I need to give the pack an heir before I die.
– When was the last time you self–harmed?
It was when Damon brought Genevieve back to the pack.
As Damon read this, his lips d, his face contorted in pain.
That day, he had brought Genevieve back to the pack house.
Thad come out of the study and Genevieve fall to the floor.
He believed her lies and thought I wanted to kill her. He pushed me down and let me be cut by the knife across my wrist.
He even made me apologize to Genevieve.
I picked up the knife from the floor and slashed it deeply into my own wrist.
“Is this apology good enough for you?”
Damon pressed the papers to his chest, his eyes filling with tears.
It turned out I had already wanted to die back then, but he continued to rub salt into my wounds.
He said, “Elena, have you figured out a new trick now? You couldn’t catch me cheating, so now you’re resorting to self–harm to get my
attention, is that it?”
Damon’s tears flowed more fiercely.
He remembered when I was forced to apologize to Genevieve in front of everyone at the hospital. I hadn’t cried or made a scene, and I
even admitted I was the other woman.
“How could I have treated her this way? I’m not a person, I’m a bastard!”
He knelt on the ground, slapping himself repeatedly.

Everyone of the pack members knew that after I left, Damon refused to believe I was dead. He searched for me until he nearly went mad.
At that time, I had already made it to Azurith.
In truth, that night
I did jump into the sea, but I was saved by another pack member, Asher.
“Elena, I’ve your life?”

darkness, I couldn’t see his face clearly, but I knew he held me tightly, begging me not to die, asking me to look at him.
Maybe I didn’t want to drag anyone else into this, or maybe I was moved by his passionate confession. I agreed to go to Azurith with
him.
As for the sea–view video, Asher had bought it from the photographer at a high price and re–edited it.
To help me get back at Damon, Asher had even arranged for a high–end “fake death” service from the “fake death” agency, ensuring every detail was as realistic as possible, including using the latest skin technology for my body.
But I hadn’t expected Damon to remember the location of the red mole on my arm.
When Damon had the flights checked, Asher and I had already taken a private plane and left.
After arriving in Azurith, I learned that Asher ran a bridal shop there, and they were looking for a wedding dress designer.
I had majored in design in college, and my dream back then had been to become a wedding dress designer.
But after becoming Damon’s Luna, I had turned into the ideal inate and mother.
Now that I had the chance to pursue my dream again, I couldn’t let it slip away.
With Asher and I working together, two years later, our bridal shop became the hottest one in Azurith, and I became a well–known
designer.
Meanwhile, Raine had risen from a desk job to a supervisor with her dedication and grit.
Through her, I learned about Damon’s situation.
After I left, Damon discovered what Genevieve had done to me. He quickly signed a bond–breaking deal with her and threw her into a club to work as an exotic dancer, leaving her to fend for herself.
Over the past two years, he hadn’t given up on finding me, but he had become more disciplined. He had become the ascetic of the capital, never touching hands of any she–wolves, focusing solely on caring for their child.
I had thought that I would never cross paths with Damon again, but fate had a way of bringing us together.
