A smile touched my lips.
In my past life, I was delirious with fever at this time; I’d never known this scene would unfold.
Emily jogged over, eager to grab my paw.“Isabella, are you feeling better? Come in.
Apologize to Jared, and he’ll forgive you, let you return to the den.”
Her scent, usually sweet and comforting, now carried a note of desperation.
I dodged her grasp, and then I heard Jared’s cold voice cut through the air.
His wolf’s scent was sharp, laced with anger.
“She’s not allowed in! This isn’t a den where you can just waltz in and out of
We kindly atoned for your transgressions, and you’re ungrateful and throwing a tantrum. I don’t want a sister like that.”
The intensity of his wolf’s rejection was almost physically painful.
“Don’t flatter yourself; I’m just passing by your territory on my way home with my mate.” My wolf felt a thrill of defiance, a surge of power from standing beside Grayson.
A tall, imposing figure appeared.
Grayson, his breathtakingly handsome face holding an amused expression, casually strolled up, his aura both rebellious and domineering.
His wolf’s scent – strong, musky, and utterly captivating – filled the air, a potent challenge to Jared’s alpha status.
My own wolf responded instantly, a wave of heat washing over me.
He reached out with his long, elegant fingers, his touch sending a jolt of electricity through my body, pulling my wrist with an undeniable force, a wicked grin playing on his lips.
His touch felt like a claiming, possessive act, staking a claim on me.
“Remember the direction to our den, don’t get lost, causing misunderstandings.” His low, magnetic voice held a playful tone, yet his gaze was sharp, piercing the Miller pack members.
The confidence of his wolf was intoxicating, a balm to my wounded pride.
I nodded obediently.“Okay.”
My wolf purred with a low hum, basking in Grayson’s protective presence.
I let Grayson lead me through the gates of the Hayes pack territory.
The scent of the Hayes pack hung heavy in the air, a constant reminder of my rejected past.
Jared’s face turned livid; he bared his fangs, ready to attack.
His wolf’s fury was palpable.
Emily stepped in front of him, her face serious.“Jared, don’t go.

Her wande ignited the fire in Jared’s bean/Teabella is getting more and more out of line! I’m taking my sister home, let’s see if Grapon
dares to stop me!
His wolfe roar echoed in my ears.
Emily, knowing I’d cut ties, felt imitated when he still considered me his sister.
She let go of his paw
Jared, just talk to leabella nicely. Don’t blame her. It’s because I took the brothers‘ love that she is acting out and calling Grayson
brother”
Her eyes were red, and her voice choked with tears.“Jared, please bring Isabella back.
I’ll leave the Miller pack; then she will calm down.”
Jared’s anger flared, and he shouted, “If she doesn’t want to come back, then good riddance! Who needs a venomous sister like that?”
He returned to Emily, hugging her fiercely. “You’re my real sister! What’s so good about Grayson? When she suffers later, if she begs to come back, we won’t take her in!”
From across the courtyard, I heard every word Jared said,

Since my rebirth, I’d already resolved to cut ties with them.
My wolf, however, felt a flicker of sadness, a final goodbye to the pack that had once been home.
