Chapter 4 The man's voice was rough with desire . " I'll be gentle . I'd never hurt our pup . " Moments later , the sounds of their passion filled the house - moans , gasps , the rhythmic creaking of the bed that had once been ours . They were in our bedroom . 7 . I stood frozen in the hallway , clutching the urns to my chest , unable to move forward , unable to escape . My body trembled , but I didn't make a sound . I just ... listened . Let it hurt . Let it remind me why I can never look back . Time blurred . Eventually , the noises ceased . Footsteps approached . The bedroom door swung open . Hannah's eyes lit up with triumph the second she saw me . " Oh ! Luna Lena , you're back ! Why didn't you say anything ? We had no idea you were home . " She giggled , pressing a hand to her still - flat stomach . " Blake just couldn't help himself - I told him no , but you know how Alphas are .

Something inside me shattered . I sank to the floor , clutching the photo to my chest , sobbing so hard my ribs ached . For five years , I'd shielded them . Never spoke ill of Blake . Never let them see my tears . But they knew it . They'd known their father didn't love me . And still , they'd hoped . By nightfall , it was done . 4 The pack warriors loaded the last box onto the truck . " Anything else , Luna ? " I shook my head - then paused . Turning back , I placed a single sheet of paper on the coffee table . Bond - Breaking Deal . Signed in my blood . As the truck pulled away , I cradled the urns close , feeling something foreign settle over me . Peace . Then , methodically , I removed my phone's SIM card , snapping it in half before tossing it into the night . Next came the silver dagger . The blade glinted as I dragged it across my palm .
