---- Chapter 1 When I was saved from prison by someone from another pack, my entire body was covered in wounds, still bleeding. The healer was stunned by my state. While quickly casting an emergency healing spell, she encouraged me by my ear, "Hang in there! Everything will be fine!" Days of torment had left me too weak to speak. All I could do was listen to the shocked, pitying gasps of the bystanders. I tried my best to reach for the healer's sleeve. I wanted to ask her to save my child first. However, I couldn't make a sound even though my mouth was open. My throat burned as if filled ---- with thousands of needles. Oh, I almost forgot. When Ross refused the enemy's requests and hung up the phone, they poured burning quicksilver down my throat, snarling. "You worthless woman, you can't even make your own Alpha fall for you? He won't even give up that tiny territory to save you. You're nothing but a useless piece of trash!" Pain still lingered in my throat, sending shivers throughout my body. When the healer pushed me into the emergency room, we passed by a patient who happened to be listening to an interview. "Alpha Ross, someone saw you and a healer, Jenny, enjoying a candlelight dinner at a high-end restaurant. May I know what your relationship with her is?" ---- Ross! cold voice sounded from the microphone. "I don't know her." It felt like I'd been struck by lightning-physical pain and heartbreak crashing together, leaving me breathless. Don't know me, huh...? Before this, no matter how much we complained about each other, I thought this resentment was just part of our love. I thought we still loved each other. I've always tried to make up for my mistake back then, no matter how much he ignored me. I thought that as long as I gave him my whole heart, he'd eventually give me his in return. Unfortunately, this was nothing but a hopeless fantasy. His hatred for me was so deep that he had hoped for my death, so how could he love me?
