Chapter 3
When I was a teenager, I thought this was love. I tried so hard to get closer to him, to understand his likes and dislikes, to become the
person he would want.
At 18, I wore my first sexy dress and high heels.
At the mate gathering, just a future Alpha from another pack spoke to me for just a few moments, and Sebastian immediately pulled me into a corner and kissed me forcefully.
Under the messy strands of hair, his eyes flickered with the wolf’s shadow. He pressed his forehead against mine and whispered,
“You’re mine.”
At the start, it was always him giving me hope. He acted like he liked me in every possible way.
But now, he said I had been the one bothering him.
I left in disappointment, unable to hold back my tears by the time I reached the door.
Shaking, I took out my phone and checked the latest message from Sebastian: “Harper, happy birthday.”
When he sent the message, I was in the middle of saving a pregnant woman, covered in blood, having gone without sleep for a whole
day and night.
But seeing his message, I felt re–energized.
Wiping away my tears, I tapped the voice call button and dialed him.
“Harper, what’s wrong?”
Sebastian’s voice was as gentle as ever.
He must have found a quiet place to take the call, since it had taken a while for him to pick up.
I wanted to speak, but my mind kept replaying the image of him holding a child and standing with another she–wolf.
“Harper bear?”
He called me that again.
He had always called me “Harper bear,” and I had once loved the nickname.
But now, it suddenly made me feel disgusted.
“Sebastian, I’m back at the pack”
If he listened closely, he could hear the slight tremor in my voice.
But Sebastian didn’t seem to notice the difference. He paused for a moment before asking, “Why did you come back?”
“Where are you now? I’ll come pick you up.”
To be honest, my heart had already shattered when I saw that scene in the garden of the pack house.
But now, he was speaking so gently.
“I’m at the packhouse’s door.”
I replied softly.
This pack house had been a gift from Sebastian when I turned 18.
He had said to me then, “Harper, no matter who you’re with in the future, this house will always be yours because this will always be your home.”

“My people must have confidence.”
But now, he was living in this house with another she–wolf, and they had a child..
But now
By the time Sebastian came out, I had already composed myself.
He stepped through the show, walking toward me, his gaze filled with concern.
When he reached me, he immediately pulled me into his embrace, his warm breath tickling my ear.
“Harper bear, it’s been three years. You’ve lost weight.”
A peach–scented fragrance filled the air.

understand the differences between men and women.
“But I’m still your future mate. Please don’t be distant with me, okay?”
He used to be the light in my life.
The reason I said this wa
was because when I first joined the pack, I was very introverted.
I was often bullied at school, and once, after school, I was cornered by other pack members in an alley.
It was then that Sebastian suddenly appeared. He drove a Maybach, cornered the bullies, then got out of the car and pulled me behind
him.
I’d never forget the cold way he spoke to them, “Harper is my sister. If anyone dares to bully her again, I won’t let you get away with
it.”
