The Pack's Daughter (Aysel and Magnus) novel Chapter 305

Chapter 305

Third Person’s POV

Finished

Because the fire had ignited too close to their chambers, when the bodies of the second-branch couple were discovered, they were already charred beyond recognition.

Ivy had spent her entire life failing to earn Ulric’s love. Yet in the end, Ulric had chosen to die with her. Whether that could be counted as another twisted fulfillment of her wish-no one could say.

The servants had been deliberately sent far away. None were injured.

Magnus watched as the bodies were carried out beneath white shrouds. His expression was cold, distant- like a wolf staring at the remains of an old battlefield.

When he was young, trapped in Greenboom Court with his mother, he had imagined countless times that his father would descend from the sky like a savior Alpha, tearing through fate itself to rescue them.

But once he was old enough to understand the world, he knew the truth.

That wolf had abandoned them long ago.

Magnus hated his father’s weakness—his cowardly retreat.

He hated his greed, his lingering attachment that poisoned everything it touched.

And when Magnus grew up, he repaid him with the same brutal methods-locking him within a confined territory of despair, forcing him to taste the suffocating agony of being trapped, unable to escape.

They were father and son in name only.

In truth, they had been enemies.

Now that death had settled the debt, Magnus no longer wasted time on hatred. His father faded into nothing more than a dim, lifeless symbol-no longer worth gnawing at.

Amid the blackened ruins, a pair of warm hands reached for him.

Aysel clasped his fingers.

Magnus pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to her neck, breathing in her familiar scent—warm, clean, alive-drawing strength from it like a wounded wolf returning to his mate.

“I won’t become a father like him,” he said hoarsely.

Aysel smiled, lifting a hand to gently stroke his hair, soothing him the way one calms a restless wolf.

“Of course not. Our Magnus will be the best father there is.”

Not having been loved before didn’t matter. Who in this world didn’t stumble forward, learning step by step in the dark?

She would walk beside him.

Chapter 305

They would learn together how to love-how to be mates, how to be family.

They would start over, and relearn the world from the beginning.

“Alpha, Miss Vale-would you like to hear Master Ulric’s will?”

The family lawyer, who had been waiting nearby for a long time, stepped forward only after they released each other, his tone gentle and respectful.

Ulric had drafted his will long ago.

To everyone’s surprise, he left none of his assets to Magnus. Instead, everything was willed to Aysel

He made only one request.

If possible, he did not wish to be buried in the Sanchez ancestral cemetery. He hoped a place could be reserved for him on Southmount Ridge,

Aysel refused without the slightest hesitation.

The dead should not disturb the peace of the living.

Ulric had no right to intrude upon the rest of the Raya’s kin.

In the end, all of Ulric’s assets were used to establish a charity fund for orphaned cubs, as well as scholarships across major music academies throughout the packs.

At Magnus’s instruction, Ulric and Ivy were buried together.

Just as Ivy had once said—after a hundred years, the name carved beside his on the gravestone would inevitably be hers.

May they remain tightly bound, even beneath the earth.

The day after the engagement ceremony was canceled, Derek piloted a helicopter alone into the skies.

He circled the clouds for a long time-like a wolf soaring beyond the pack’s borders-before releasing the controls and plunging into the deep sea below.

The authorities later ruled it a suicide driven by depression.

Ulva was sentenced to prison for kidnapping and murder.

Everything Derek left behind was given to Bella.

The next time Aysel saw Bella was in front of Derek’s cenotaph.

The waters where he fell were too deep; his body was never recovered.

Still, the Sanchez family held a grand funeral for him.

Some matters had no absolute right or wrong-only opposing positions. The moment one stepped onto th battlefield, everyone knew the cost.

12:22 Wed, Dec 24 MG.

Chapter 305

No matter who won, no one would leave the other alive.

Derek had chosen his own ending.

Aysel handed Bella the ring the servants had found while cleaning Derek’s room.

Dressed in black. Bella held it for a long time. Then she smiled faintly, bent down, and placed the ring back before his grave.

He had loved her.

She had always known that.
