A woman in a black dress and hat watched him coldly from a distance,
Beside her, Caden held an umbrella over her head.
He noticed Evelyn staring at Dante.
“Feeling sorry for him?” he asked.
Evelyn frowned and met Caden’s gaze, her voice ley “I don’t feel sorry for him. I feel sorry for myself.”
She hadn’t slept the night Natalia sent her that first mug, voice message, but Dante had slept soundly beside Natalia that night.
On their fifth anniversary, her ‘celebration cake’ was just a photo. A rejected cake Dante couldn’t even be bothered to bring home.
She lay in a hospital bed after the crash, while he brought that woman into their home, slept in their
bed.
So tell her who deserved pity more than she did?
Caden looked away, then noticed the blank expression in her eyes.
“Want to leave?” he asked. “Get some air, Renata?’
Evelyn’s lips curled into a smile, a quiet triumph lighting her face.
“Sure.”
Just yesterday, she had finished registering her new identity.
Her name was now Renata Varnell.
A new life was beginning,
A month later, Rosalie and Silas publicly announced that their grand-niece, Renata Varnell, would be taking over the company.
The news shocked pack, big and small.
Back in Frosthaven, Dante had been spiraling ever since his return from Crisantia. He drank all day, mourning Evelyn’s photo, talking to it like she could hear him.
“Evelyn… You lied, didn’t you? You’re still alive, right? Please… come back…”
“I was wrong… I betrayed you. I never should’ve done that.”

While Dante spiraled into grief, the pack elders pulled out the agreement he’d signed five years ago.
They moved to strip him of his title and began the process of transferring his assets.
With Evelyn legally dead, everything was to go to Rosalie and Silas.
Rosalie didn’t show him any mercy. She emailed the elders: “List every damn thing under Dante’s name-the RV, the collectibles, whatever can be sold online. Cash it all out, don’t leave him a single
thing.”
She wanted him to understand: A man who cherishes his wife will rise to power; a man who betrays
her will lose everything.
“Alright, Luna.”
A week later, the pack elder arrived at the pack house.
He glanced at the man who had lost nearly sixty pounds, a flicker of surprise flashing in his eyes.
But only for a second, his expression quickly returned to normal.
“Dante,” the elder began, “according to Luna Rosalie’s orders, you are no longer permitted to enter the pack house. You must also sell off your other properties. Everything needs to be cleared
out.”
