00:02the river would pack lived by one unbreakable rule no werewolf mates a human but my alpha
00:08ethan broke that rule for me he knelt before the moon goddess for three days and three nights
00:13begging for her blessing so his pack would be forced to accept me as his mate but in my fourth
00:18year as his luna i was caught cheating for the third time the beta she-wolf at his side smirked
00:23her voice dripping with malice luna the mate agreement is clear three betrayals and you're
00:30exiled you lose all rights to the pup ethan's eyes burned with anger and disappointment what's your
00:37excuse this time that you don't know him or that you were drugged again but this time i didn't panic
00:43i didn't burst into tears begging him to listen or forgive me for our pup's sake i calmly accepted
00:49the dissolution of our bond and even offered to never see our pup again for four years everyone
00:55said a plain human like me was never good enough for an alpha like him and now i was just
01:00tired but
01:01when i finally vanished from his world he tore it apart looking for me i pressed my thumbprint onto
01:06the agreement to dissolve our bond i'll move out of the river packs territory as soon as i can
01:11i'll take my grandmother with me as for leo you don't deserve to be his mother you are never to
01:18see
01:18him again i didn't flinch i just smiled i was about to say the same thing i won't be seeing
01:26him
01:26anymore ethan's brow furrowed he wasn't used to me being so final for the last four years our pup was
01:33my entire world in every fight he'd always threatened to keep leo from me and every time i was the
01:40one who'd
01:40bow my head apologize and beg him to let me see my son this wasn't like me at all selene's
01:47smirk
01:47widened and she covered her mouth in mock surprise kareen how can you say such a thing
01:53he's your own flesh and blood i ignored her i was used to her always at ethan's side acting more
02:00like
02:00his mate than i ever was all while finding new ways to drive a wedge between us ethan sneered at
02:06my
02:06calm expression faithless to the core giving up your own flesh and blood for some mutt outside
02:13kareen you truly are something else his words were daggers slicing at my heart but i was numb
02:21i'd endured this kind of humiliation for four years the first time i was caught the so-called lover
02:27vanished before ethan arrived the security camera only caught a blurry figure i tried to explain to
02:33prove my innocence but as a human i couldn't form a mind link with him i had no way to
02:39make him feel the
02:39truth in my heart ethan please believe me i don't know that man i'd cried begging him he didn't
02:47listen selene was right there adding fuel to the fire maybe kareen just prefers being with human men
02:54they are their own kind after all from then on as punishment i was forced to schedule visits with my
03:02own son through selene a week in advance watched by pack guards the entire time it was like a
03:07prisoner's visitation hour the second time was worse i was locked in the basement for a month
03:14i saw no one not even a sliver of sunlight i developed severe claustrophobia it took me a full
03:21week after they let me out before i could speak to people normally when leo saw me he burst into
03:26tears
03:26i was so thin i looked like a ghost now the third time i was done with this sick game
03:33so i let go
03:34i've signed it is there anything else if not please leave corinne you'd better not regret this
03:42don't come crawling back to me because i won't be merciful again he turned and walked toward the
03:47door my mind went back five years to when i found ethan injured and nursed him back to health during
03:54that
03:54time we fell in love he would press his hand over his heart and tell me again and again you
03:59are the
03:59most special woman i have ever known my heart my wolf they're yours until he finally confessed the
04:08truth he was a werewolf i hesitated i couldn't see myself as the luna his pack needed and i never
04:15believed he could break their sacred laws for me but he was relentless chasing me for an entire year
04:20until he finally knelt at the moon goddess's temple for three days and nights begging her to bless our
04:24union when a pale exhausted ethan told me he'd secured the elder's approval my resolve shattered
04:30i truly believed our love was strong enough to bridge the divide between our worlds but just six
04:35months after i became his mate i was found with another man the frame up was sloppy obvious even
04:42but it didn't matter something in his eyes changed that day watching his back as he left i felt my
04:48heart
04:48turned to stone i had trusted him and i had been wrong i would not make that mistake again
04:54celine paused at the door turning back to give me a fake smile enjoy yourself kareen you and your
05:01kind are better suited for each other aren't you her words were laced with venom but i no longer cared
05:06after they left the room fell into a dead silence i turned to the man still passed out on the
05:12bed
05:12and a wave of nausea rolled in my stomach i'd been awake for a while as the drug's effects wore
05:18off
05:18and i realized i'd been set up again i could have run only to be dragged back for an even
05:22crueler
05:22punishment but this time i chose to stay i waited for them for this whole drama to play out just
05:29to
05:29end this disgusting game for good that evening i returned to the river pax estate my former home
05:35when i pushed open the door to the master bedroom i found it empty my clothes my books even the
05:41jasmine
05:41plant i'd potted myself all gone a werewolf maid saw me and bowed her head awkwardly
05:46mrs kareen your things have been packed they're in the storage room miss selena said the master
05:53bedroom needs to be prepared for the new luna the new luna i let out a bitter laugh selene certainly
05:59worked fast the storage room was next to the basement a dark damp space filled with old
06:04furniture and junk my suitcases were tossed in a corner one of them broken open my clothes spilling
06:10onto the dusty floor i knelt and started digging through the mess i didn't care about the expensive
06:16clothes or jewelry those were gifts from ethan or rather gifts for the luna he wanted me to be
06:22i was looking for only one thing the emerald necklace my grandmother had given me it was the
06:27only treasure that was truly mine finally in a broken jewelry box i found it
06:34hey a small voice came from behind me i turned to see four-year-old leo standing in the doorway
06:40looking down at me at some point he'd stopped calling me mom now it was just hey auntie selena
06:47said you're not part of our family anymore you're an outsider you can't take anything from the pack
06:52my heart clenched leo these are my things not the packs no auntie selena says all lonely humans
07:02are thieves you can't take anything he lunged for the necklace in my hand his small fingers yanking
07:08hard on the chain leo let go this was from your great-grandmother i tried to protect it but even
07:14a four-year-old pop had unnatural strength in the struggle the necklace snapped and fell to the floor
07:20the crack of the emerald shattering was deafening in the small silent room i stared at the broken
07:26pieces on the ground my heart turning to ash the stone that held all of my grandmother's love was
07:31shattered it's your fault for not letting go leo do you have any idea what you just broke
07:39that was from my great-grandmother do you even know she's in a nursing home because of you
07:46i don't have a great-grandmother i just know about some burden who's draining our pack's medical
07:52resources auntie selena said she should have died a long time ago then dad wouldn't have to waste so
07:58much money on her auntie selena said that for a lowly human she doesn't deserve to be in our pack
08:06say that again lowly doesn't deserve my expression terrified him he bit his lip then found his courage
08:15a lowly old woman what i couldn't take i shoved him i couldn't stand hearing those vile words from
08:22his mouth caught off guard he fell backward and let out a pained cry dad mommy hit me leo wailed
08:30from
08:31the floor leo what's wrong dad she hit me make her leave i want auntie selena ethan's furious glare landed
08:43on me are you insane attacking your own pup i stood in the corner watching the father and son feeling
08:52nothing i didn't hit him i was fulfilling my final duty as his mother teaching him some manners
09:01teaching him what he should and shouldn't say
09:05manners
09:07you call shoving a four-year-old pup manners leo sobbed in his father's arms but still managed to repeat
09:13his
09:13earlier words dad auntie selena was right that old woman is just wasting your money
09:21she should have died a long time ago hearing it again from my own son's lips was like a knife
09:26twisting in my heart but what broke me was ethan's reaction he just frowned he didn't scold leo
09:33instead he defended selene selene was just stating a fact from the perspective of pack resources
09:39don't make a big deal out of it her medical bills are a significant expense i stared at him in
09:45disbelief
09:46after four years together he thought caring for my sick grandmother was an unnecessary expense
09:52ethan do you hear yourself enough i brought leo here so you two could talk about the situation
10:01don't tell him yet he's young he needs time to adjust he meant the bond dissolution i almost laughed
10:08in the last four years the total time i'd spent talking to leo was probably less than half the
10:14time he'd spent alone with selene and now he wanted us to talk i bent down and gathered the
10:19shattered pieces of the emerald not even flinching as a sharp edge sliced my finger
10:29i'm leaving in the living room selene was lounging elegantly on the sofa with a cup of tea
10:36as if she owned the place she gave me a perfect smile as i walked out i ignored her and
10:42headed
10:42straight for the main entrance stop
10:48you can't go you didn't say sorry to me used to being the center of everyone's world leo couldn't
10:54handle my indifference when i didn't immediately kneel to hug and soothe him he started wailing
10:59the sound was shrill and piercing down my coldness finally made ethan snap the full force of his alpha
11:05command crashed down on me making it hard to breathe stop apologize to leo now the alpha's command was an
11:13invisible chain binding my body to end it all i mechanically knelt and looked at the crying boy
11:19i'm sorry leo mommy shouldn't have pushed you leo stopped crying he glared at me with swollen
11:26red eyes then suddenly swung his little hand dot at4 leo could already partially shift his nails
11:33lengthened sharpening into claws blood rolled up instantly from three deep gashes on my arm
11:37lowly human you deserved it you reek of another male even a pup can scent it this is the punishment
11:47you deserve ethan i shot to my feet my shot fell in my eyes blazing with fury you say i
11:55reek of
11:55another male what about you for four years you and sualine have been disseparable you even sent our
12:01son to stay at her house so you tell me whose scent is more disgusting corin how dare you the
12:08alpha and
12:09i are innocent i was merely performing my duties as a beta helping manage pack affairs innocent you know
12:17exactly what's in your heart you enough corin you have completely and utterly disappointed me
12:26since you seem to think we're not so innocent i'll show you what real betrayal looks like
12:31ethan ordered the nanny to take leo away then he grabbed my wrist and dragged me back into the
12:36bathroom ethan let me go i struggled but a human strength is nothing against a werewolf's
12:41the door slammed shut he bound my wrists with a coarse rope and threw me to the floor
12:46tonight you're going to watch that hurts hurt you think this hurts do you have any idea how much it
12:55hurt when i found you with him he turned pulled selene into his arms and crushed his lips against
13:00hers the kiss was passionate fiery as if they were true mates the sight made me want to vomit
13:06ethan we dissolved the bond you can't humiliate me like this he didn't listen deepening the kiss
13:14selene let out a soft moan her hand slowly tracing the skin over his heart there tattooed in black ink
13:20was my name the mate's mark of loyalty now selene's fingers were stroking those letters
13:25alpha this tattoo can you change it to my name i closed my eyes silent tears streaming down my face
13:33of course selena a faithless mate doesn't deserve a place on my skin
13:39faithless the irony was suffocating he believed every flimsy setup against me yet here he was kissing and
13:45touching another woman right in front of my eyes just as my heart went completely numb my phone
13:50ringed i struggled to reach it and answer a nurse's trembling voice came from the other end
13:55i'm a nurse at saint mary's hospital your grandmother there's been an emergency
14:02what what happened to her your grandmother heard the news that you were being exiled from the pack
14:07this afternoon and she became very distressed during our evening rounds we found she had swallowed
14:11a large number of sleeping pills we're working on her now but but her will to live is very weak
14:16miss corinne can you get here right away she really needs you how could she know i collapsed
14:21the world spinning i never told her i scrambled to my feet
14:27ethan please let me go to the hospital my grandmother something happened to her
14:32what a performance corinne are you really willing to stoop this low just to escape your punishment
14:38it's not an act it's real my grandmother is in trouble alpha don't let her fool you
14:47this is just a pathetic attempt to run away i'm not lying she's really in the emergency room please
14:53believe me enough
14:57we just signed the agreement how would your grandmother know you knew she couldn't handle
15:02the shock and you still had to tell her who's to blame for that i didn't tell her just let
15:09me go
15:09there might still be time she was only injured because she saved leo from a rogue wolf please don't
15:16treat her life like a joke corinne you use your grandmother to get sympathy every single time
15:24i'm sick of it alpha forget about her come here in a final desperate surge i fought to my
15:31but with my hands tied i lost my balance and my head slammed hard against the door
15:38grandma i have to save grandma my actions finally pushed ethan over the edge he strode over grabbed
15:45my shoulder and dragged me to the storage closet in the corner of the room since you love lying and
15:50performing so much you can stay in here and reflect on it the closet was small and dark
15:55no don't lock me in here you know i have claustrophobia ethan please stay in there and watch
16:04closet door slammed shut plunging me into the total darkness the sounds of their coupling grunts and
16:10moans echoed in the suffocating blackness amplified and inescapable the next morning ethan came downstairs
16:16and called out by habit corinne make breakfast there was no answer the nanny reported timidly
16:22alpha the young master won't stop crying he spiked a fever last night 102 degrees and just kept crying
16:29for his mommy just then the living room phone rang ethan answered it a stranger's voice was on the line
16:35hello am i speaking to a relative of miss corinne this is saint mary's hospital we're calling about her
16:41grandmother's final arrangements the woman passed away during the night we were unable to revive her
16:47but no family has come to claim the body he suddenly remembered last night the phone call he had dismissed
16:53as a lie his face went pale he turned and bolted up the stairs with a trembling hand he wrenched
17:00open
17:00the closet door the moment the door swung open he froze the locker was empty nothing but a few blood
17:07stains and a broken rope she got out on her own she's really selling it ethan muttered to himself
17:13even bled for the part he was convinced this was all an elaborate act a sob story cooked up by
17:19corinne
17:19and her grandmother the goal was obvious to make him take back his decision to reject her to welcome
17:25the unfaithful woman back into his arms he truly underestimated a human's cunning ethan picked up his
17:31spare phone and dialed corinne's number the number you have dialed has been switched off switched off
17:38so she's going all the way with this act he gave a cold smirk and decided to drive to the
17:43hospital
17:44himself to see what kind of game they were playing half an hour later ethan stood at the entrance to
17:48saint mary's hospital work the sharp sting of disinfectant couldn't mask the cloying scent of death
17:53he wrinkled his nose alpha what are you doing here the doctor rushed over as soon as he saw him
17:59you called earlier about corinne's grandmother the doctor sighed a sudden dark premonition washed
18:06over ethan last night the old woman heard that corinne was going to be expelled from the pack
18:11she became hysterical crying and repeating things like i'm dragging corinne down and
18:16i shouldn't be alive ethan's voice was calm and and then we found her
18:23she'd swallowed a massive dose of sleeping pills when the nurse wasn't looking
18:30we worked on her for four straight hours we almost had her stabilized but her will to live
18:35was just gone she just kept calling miss corinne's name if corinne had been here then maybe what
18:44maybe we could have saved her the doctor said shaking his head with regret ethan's fingers
18:50curled into fists he remembered smashing corinne's phone on the floor last night he remembered locking
18:55her in that cramped dark locker are you sure she's gone of course we're sure the death certificate has
19:02already been issued we need the family to handle the arrangements and claim the body ethan felt a wave
19:07of dizziness so strong he had to brace himself against the wall to keep from falling if her
19:11grandmother was really dead than that phone call last night alpha please tell corinne this for me
19:18before her grandmother she kept saying don't blame corina it's all my fault for holding her back
19:26when i'm dead she'll finally be free it felt like a fist had closed around ethan's heart squeezing
19:32tight who who told her grandmother about the expulsion only one person has visited her these past few days
19:42your beta selena selene so she was here no wonder it felt so wrong corinne would never have told her
19:50ailing grandmother something so devastating he staggered back a step suddenly he heard corinne's desperate
19:57cries from the night before she was injured by a rogue wolf to save leo his mind flashed back to
20:05that night two years ago leo had playfully snuck out of the manor only to run into a vicious rogue
20:10wolf
20:11it was corinne's grandmother who had thrown herself in front of the child taking the claws to her stomach
20:16the attack had damaged her internal organs leaving her bedridden and frail ever since corinne had been
20:22heartbroken and he had held her hand swearing he would treat her grandmother like his own
20:26family from that day on he had broken his promise he had let the woman who saved his son die
20:32alone
20:32and in despair a wave of fear and guilt stronger than anything he had ever felt crashed over him
20:38alpha are you all right the doctor asked looking with concern at ethan's pale face ethan didn't answer
20:44he just turned and bolted from the morgue he had to get home when he sped back to the villa
20:49he found
20:50leo crying at the top of the stairs the four-year-old's face was flushed with fever as he sat
20:55helplessly on
20:55the floor mommy i want my mommy leo's sobs were heart-wrenching the nanny stood beside him wringing
21:02her hands the young master keeps asking for his mother he won't even take his medicine the moment
21:08leo saw ethan he ran to him daddy where's mommy why isn't she back looking at leo's fever flushed face
21:15a storm of emotions churned inside ethan i want mommy where is she mommy mommy had to go out for
21:24a bit
21:25she'll be back soon ethan said the words feeling like ash in his mouth in that moment he didn't
21:31know if he was lying to leo or to himself he didn't even know where corinne was hearing this
21:37leo suddenly balled his small fists in anger it's all because she's human it's all her fault
21:42if only she wasn't a human but as soon as the words were out the little boy broke into choked
21:48sobs again but but i want my mommy daddy when is mommy coming back does she not want me anymore
21:54he remembered a time when corinne would dissolve into tears at the first sign of a sniffle from leo
21:59she'd hold vigil by his crib all night no matter how exhausted she was back when he was just a
22:05toddler
22:06leo had been her little shadow clinging to her leg and crying for mommy if she was out of his
22:10sight for
22:10even a second mom but somewhere along the line everything had changed leo began to treat her love
22:17like a meal he craved yet was disgusted by i wish auntie celia was my mommy corinne had just broken
22:24tears streamed down her face silent and unending and he lost in his own fog of perceived betrayal
22:31had offered no comfort he twisted the knife compared to celia you're not fit to be his mother anyway
22:37after that as leo's cruel words became more frequent corinne's heartbreak slowly hardened
22:42into a quiet numbness the barbs stopped hurting her now remembering the ghost of those tears in
22:49corinne's eyes and seeing that same awful conflict mirrored in his own son ethan's heart felt like
22:53it was being torn in two who the hell had poisoned a four-year-old's heart to twist love into
22:57such
22:57hateful knots he handed leo over to a maid and walked into his study alone the mate rejection
23:03papers were still on his desk corinne's handprint was a glaring red stain on the page the space for
23:09the alpha's signature was still empty he had never intended to sign them he thought corinne was just
23:14throwing a tantrum but in a few days she'd be back on her knees crying and begging him for forgiveness
23:19like she always did but this time she had actually left she'd left so cleanly as if their four years
23:26together had been nothing the thought filled ethan with anger but underneath it something else was
23:31stirring panic he picked up his phone and sent corinne a text i've had someone handle your
23:36grandmother's funeral arrangements no reply he sent another leo has a fever he won't stop crying for you
23:45still nothing the minutes ticked by ethan sat in his study staring at the phone screen a feeling of
23:52desperate urgency growing inside him he had never waited this anxiously for a message from anyone
23:57just then a terrified scream came from outside alpha the young master has collapsed ethan shot out
24:06of the study and saw leo lying limply on the floor his small face crimson his eyes closed he was
24:11unconscious he roared scooping his son up quick get the pack doctor the heat radiating from the boy's
24:18body sent a fresh wave of terror through him auntie selena said mommy's a lowly human while they
24:24waited for the doctor leo started muttering in his sleep that grandma's a burden she said if i scratch
24:32mommy she'll get sent away and i can have a new werewolf mommy the little boy's voice was weak and
24:40broken she said the other cubs laugh at me because my mom's a human that she's an embarrassment to our
24:47family if mommy leaves no one will laugh at me anymore ethan's hands clenched into fists his
24:55nails digging into his palms every word was a hammer blow to ethan's heart so that was it
25:01selene had orchestrated all of it but but grandma isn't a burden grandma was nice to me she made me
25:09cookies mommy mommy mommy i'm sorry please don't leave me i won't ever say you're a bad human again
25:17please come back auntie selena lied to me she said a new mommy would love me more but i only
25:24want my
25:25mommy ethan's eyes burned he finally understood why leo had acted so strangely toward corinne a child not
25:31even five years old manipulated by an adult's malice forced to choose between loving his mother and
25:37despising her and he the boy's father had not only failed to protect his son and his mate but had
25:42allowed it all to happen daddy why doesn't mommy want me anymore is it because i scratched her with
25:48my claws it must have hurt a lot i'll never do it again mommy come back i'll forget all the
25:55bad things
25:56auntie selena told me to say he finally understood why corinne had been so resolute about not wanting
26:01leo that day because she had lost all hope in her son too that's why even now with leo so
26:07sick
26:07it wouldn't be enough to bring her back ethan couldn't help but wonder what about him had
26:12corinne given up on him completely too the pack doctor arrived quickly and began treating leo
26:22alpha i heard leo was sick how is he is it serious she said trying to step closer ethan took
26:28a step back
26:29selena tell me what did you teach leo selene's eyes flickered with panic alpha i don't understand
26:35what you mean you don't understand ethan stared at her deceitful face his rage finally boiling over
26:40lowly human a burden of a grandmother who taught a four-year-old child words like that
26:47selene stammered trying to find an excuse i was only only what ethan stalked toward her
26:55only encouraging a cub not yet five years old to attack his own mother with his claws
26:59only telling him that if he hurt his mother she'd be cost out so he could have a better
27:05whale wolf stepmother alpha i i did it for leo's own good a human is not fit to be the
27:11luna of a
27:12wolf pack for leo's good you twisted him up with so much guilt and longing that he passed out crying
27:17for his mother in his sleep you call that for his own good ethan please let me explain i truly
27:22love
27:23you i only want get out as of this moment you are no longer my beta and don't you ever
27:27let me see
27:27you again selene stared at him in disbelief you're casting me out for that human ethan i've given so
27:33many years to the river pack your contributions your contributions were to destroy my family
27:38manipulate my child and drive my mate's grandmother to her death get out selene stumbled backward her
27:44eyes filled with a toxic mix of disbelief and resentment but against the absolute authority of an
27:49alpha she had no choice but to turn and leave ethan leaned weakly against the wall he thought about the
27:55night before how he'd been so provoked by corinne's words that he had impulsively slept with selene
28:00looking back now he realized he hadn't been punishing corinne he had only defiled himself
28:05he immediately dialed the number of his most trusted subordinate
28:08marcus i need you to reinvestigate at every detail of corinne's three past infidelities
28:13find those three men i want to know exactly what happened alpha you suspect i suspect i've been
28:18played for a fool for four years
28:21if selene was capable of doing this to leo then none of the evidence she provided can be trusted
