Story: The Rejected Alpha
After several years, I rejoined the Silver Wolf pack alongside Asher. My Alpha father and brothers greeted us at the gate.
“Violet’s back! From now on, when your Alpha brother handles pack affairs, take Asher with you,” my dad told me.
The pack in front of me had returned to its former prosperity, with all of the gifts Maverick had given me converted into funds to rebuild the pack.
My return revitalised the Silver Wolf pack, and my father promised to assist Asher in establishing his own pack once he reached adulthood.
Given all of this, why should I cling to the position of bearing Maverick’s heir?
On the day I returned to the Silver Wolf pack, I drank the potion that broke the mate bond. The pain began in my heart and spread outward—unilaterally breaking the mate bond made it even worse.
Despite the pain, I felt a sense of liberation.
Shortly after, I took over the Silver Wolf pack’s affairs.
After ten years as a Luna, I was well-versed in internal affairs, but I needed to learn more about external cooperation and expansion.
To learn, I read documents until the early morning and awoke early for meetings with my subordinates.
Physical exhaustion couldn’t keep the satisfaction I felt inside. I felt like I had reclaimed control of my destiny and discovered myself.
I also had to guide Asher. I had to teach him how to be a qualified Alpha.
I saw Maverick again two months after rejoining the Silver Wolf pack. Without a pass, he couldn’t enter the Silver Wolf pack’s territory at will; this time, he used the excuse of collaboration to join several other packs’ Alphas. “Violet, can we talk?” he asked.
Maverick stopped me outside the conference room; he appeared broken, a far cry from the aggressive arrogance he used to coerce me into accepting him.
I agreed. “Fine. What do you want to talk about?”
“Why can’t I feel our mate bond anymore? What did you do?” he was wondering.
After two months, seeing Maverick again evoked no emotion in me. I just wanted to dismiss him quickly and get back to work on the cooperation documents.
“I took a potion to break it. You can choose a new Luna now,” I told you.
He stood stiffly, as if someone had drained all of his strength.
His eyes welled up with tears as he said, “But I love you.”
Maverick stopped bothering me after I told him about the broken mate bond.
However, the Silver Wolf pack was close by, so I heard about him from time to time.
Forest resources were limited, and the Silver Wolf pack continued to expand after my return, inevitably encroaching on Maverick’s pack’s resources.
In comparison to the rising status of the Silver Wolf pack, Maverick’s pack began to decline.
Stella, in an attempt to get back at me, spread rumours about Maverick’s affair throughout the pack, and the story eventually spread.
Maverick’s reputation plummeted after he cheated during his marriage and betrayed Luna, who had always supported him. Many packs blacklisted Maverick and refused to work with him.
