“I, Alpha Daniel Caldwell, reject you, Amber Osborne, as my mate.”
On the day of my wedding, my destined mate, Alpha Daniel, publicly severed our bond.
And then, he completed his marriage registration with Camelia Hodges.
As the crowd erupted into mocking laughter and ridiculed me, Beta Theodore West stepped forward, pulling out a diamond ring. With heartfelt sincerity, he proposed to me.
Even if he wasn’t my fated mate.
Feeling moved, I nodded and consented to marry him. When I was seven months pregnant, I was ambushed by a rogue wolf pack. In the end, Theodore arrived with his army, saving my life.
When I regained consciousness, he was sitting beside me, his eyes filled with sorrow. He told me that the baby hadn’t made it and that I would never be able to have pups again.
Devastated, I broke down. He wrapped his arms around me, and with tears streaming down his face, Theodore apologized for not being able to protect me. He swore to stay by my side forever.
Six years later, however, I unexpectedly received an audio recording of a conversation between him and a colleague. “Theodore, you helped Luna Camelia forge a fake pregnancy certificate and even staged a rogue attack to force Amber Osborne into premature labor, so you could give her pup to Luna Camelia. Do you have any regrets about it?”
“Camelia has been infertile since birth. Do you expect me to watch her be ridiculed by her in-laws for the rest of her life? My only regret is that the baby was a girl. If it had been a boy, her Luna position would’ve been even more secure,” Theodore replied.
What I had thought was his deep love for me turned out to be nothing more than a carefully orchestrated scheme.
