For several days, Thome seemed to be extremely busy that he even forgot my birthday.
But at this point, I didn’t really care anymore.
Then, as if he suddenly remembered, he bought tickets for my favorite musical as a way to make it up to me.
The concert was the talk of the pack, with tickets nearly impossible to snag. I’d struck out on getting one myself, so when Thorne offered me a ticket and a chance to go together, I jumped at it, my heart racing with hope.
But on the day of the show, he never showed up. Instead, I saw Liora’s post on Moons, waving two tickets with a smug grin.
Even for a night as wild as this concert, having my forever mate by my side is everything,” she wrote.
Although she didn’t show his face, I immediately recognized Thorne’s scarred hand in the photo. The same scar he’d gotten years ago while saving me.
Suddenly, I felt like a clown.
There I was, standing in the rain outside the theater, worrying if he was soaked, while he and his omega were living it up in the VIP section.
The cold rain hit my face, and I could feel my heart and body slowly freezing
At that moment, my mom sent me a message saying the mating ceremony was scheduled for two weeks later. She said if that was too rushed, I could push it back
I shook my head. “No, it’s fine. Let’s keep it as is.
The heavy rain had paralyzed the city’s transportation, and after waiting for a long time, I still couldn’t catch a cab.
Then Thome called, late as usual. “Why aren’t you at the pack house?
My voice was calm, emotionless. “I’m at the theater.”
He paused for a moment, as if suddenly remembering something. “Sorry, something came up this afternoon. Wait for me, I’ll come pick you up.”
I didn’t refuse, but deep down, I knew he wouldn’t come.
Sure enough, the next second, Liora posted again:
“My Alpha made me hot soup so I wouldn’t catch a cold from the rain. There’s nothing more attractive than a man who cooks!

felt like I was dipped in honey.
It wasn’t about the food, but was about being remembered and cared for by someone you love–that sweetness outshines any flavor on earth.
But now,
looking at the cake, I found it more than ironic.
Just a moment ago, I saw Liora post her original private post as public, and after reading just a few comments, I couldn’t stomach it anymore.
That’s when I realized how foolish I had been..
This cake wasn’t for me–it was Liora’s favorite.
And not just the cake. All the snacks, the nuts, every treat Thorne had brought me were all things Liora liked.
What was even more tragic was that I realized this habit of his, bringing me food when he came back from pack business, had started after Liora joined the pack and began working closely with him.
So, Thorne, when you binging me these gifts, who did you see in your heart? Me? Or Liora?
I swallowed the bitterness and said softly, “I don’t like sweets. They’re too cloying. Don’t bring them anymore.”
Thome didn’t expect this reaction from me. His eyes were filled with surprise. “How come? You’ve never refused it before.”
After all these years together, if he truly cared about me, how could he not know my preferences?
When something was repeated too many times, it would just wear thin, until all that’s left is hollow compromise.
I didn’t argue further. I casually added, “My tastes have changed lately.”
