Betrayed by My Fated Alpha

It was just one night, yet I managed to quickly regain my composure. I wasted no time in calling someone to change the locks on the door. After that, I gathered my belongings and moved into the hospital.

The healer told me Jax’s condition wasn’t great. There were still remnants of sleeping herbs in his system. This moon cycle, my pup would need to undergo a stomach cleansing. Sleeping herbs... Every wolf knows that consuming too much can lead to severe complications. I couldn’t believe Elodie had dared to harm him like that!

A ten-meter-long tube was inserted into his stomach; Jax squirmed in agony. I covered my mouth, unable to bear the sight. He’s only eighteen moons old. How could he endure such a harsh ordeal? The procedure lasted over ten minutes. When the healer finally brought him out, his little face was flushed purple, looking alarming. I held him close, soothing him until he drifted into a deep sleep.

As I gently stroked his tiny face, memories of the past overwhelmed me. During my pregnancy with Jax, Alpha Jesse treated me incredibly well. He wouldn’t let me work, accompanying me everywhere. He even learned to cook from the pack’s chef. The night I gave birth, I nearly lost my life. When the healing chamber doors swung open, he didn’t even glance at Jax but rushed to my side, his eyes red, gripping my wrist tightly. “You’ve been through so much. What do you want to eat or buy? I’ll get it right now.”

Watching him flustered, those nearby envied me, whispering, “The Luna truly found the perfect mate.” My heart was full of happiness.

When Jax was a year old and crying loudly, Alpha Jesse stayed by the bed late into the night. To let me sleep peacefully, he bought me earplugs and held Jax all night, sleeping on the couch. Time and again, seeing his devoted fatherly demeanor, I would marvel at my good fortune in meeting such a wonderful Alpha.

After Jax turned one, Alpha Jesse assured me, “Feel free to be yourself; I’ve got everything else covered.” It was this reassurance that made it easy to ignore Elodie’s presence when she eventually appeared. I had to admit that with him around, I felt safe. I could fully trust him to support me.

Looking back now, those promises he made in moments of genuine passion were only true in those fleeting moments. Now, they mean nothing. The bond we once shared, the vows we whispered under the Moon Goddess’s gaze, felt like ashes scattered in the wind. And yet, the pain of it still lingered, a constant reminder of what once was—and what could never be again.
