I laughed bitterly shaking my head as I looked at Thorne. “It doesn’t matter hymore, Thorne. I give up. Sophia won fair and square. I’m done trying to save a marriage he clearly doesn’t want either. I don’t care about his excuses or is mistakes. I’m leaving.”
‘Leaving?” Thorne’s voice cracked, as he looked horrified at what he just head.
‘Lumina, you can’t just leave. Where would you go? You can’t leave the city without Xenois’s permission – pack law-”
“That’s what I’m here for,” Zade interrupted, his voice, carrying the authority of an Alpha as Thorne looked at him with anger. “To give her that
permission. To take her somewhere safe.”
I watched as understanding dawned in Thorne’s eyes. He looked at me with a mixture of shock and betrayal as he looked between the both of us,
probably wishing this was a prank. “You’re leaving with him? Lumina, you can’t be serious. You have a life here, a family—”
“What family?” I snapped angrily, infuriated that Thorne wasn’t approving me to leave and still wanted me to suffer in this city.
“My husband just admitted to having a child with another woman. His mothe accused me of attempted murder. They want me to apologize for
defending myself when that woman has been doing all she can, trying to destroy my marriage for months.”
“This is insane, Thorne said, running his hands through his hair. “You’re making a huge mistake. Xenois loves you-”
“Xenois loves the idea of me, I corrected him. “He loves having a docile wife who doesn’t ask too many questions and doesn’t interfere with his
relationship with his ex-girlfriend, who will look pretty in a public setting but stay away from his privacy life. Who would look the other way and allow
Sophia to do whatever she wanted whether I tolerated it or not. But the moment stood up for myself, the moment I refused to be a doormat, he turned on
me.”
“That’s not true,” Thorne protested. “He’s confused right now, trying to process everything that’s happened. Give him time-
“Time?” I laughed harshly. “Time for what? Time to figure out how to finally blend his illegitimate son and his ex-girlfriend into our family? Time to
decide whether he believes his wife or the woman who’s been playing mind games with us for months?”
Zade stepped closer to me, his presence, a source of support and comfort to me. “Lumina doesn’t have to explain herself to anyone,” he said quietly.
‘She’s made her choice.”
“Her choice?” Thorne’s voice rose with anger glaring at him. “She’s running away from her problems instead of fighting for her marriage. That’s not a
choice, that’s cowardice.”
“Don’t you dare call me a coward,” I snarled, my grief transforming into angel “I’ve been fighting for my marriage for months. I’ve been watching my husband get pulled back into his ex-girlfriend’s orbit, I’ve been dealing with his mother’s constant criticism and hatred, knowing that she will never see me
as anything else but the woman who killed her daughter and ruined her family, Ie been trying to be the perfect wife while everyone around me treats me like I’m the problem.”
‘Because you are the problem, Thorne shot back. “You’re jealous and insecu, and instead of trusting your husband, you’re running to his biggest rival.
The words hit me like a slap. “I’m jealous? I’m insecure? My husband has been lying to me about having a child with another woman for five years, and
I’m the problem?”
“You don’t know the whole story,” Thorne said desperately. “There has to be explanation-*
“There is an explanation,” I said coldly. “The explanation is that my husband heated on me and lied about it. The explanation is that he’s been keeping

‘That’s not- Thorne started, but I cut him off.
‘It is exactly what happened,” I said firmly, not budging on this. If Thorne w friendship, then that was his business but I won’t play along on this mockery of his son. I watched him defend Sophia instead of supporting me. I saw him ask m
