Chapter 4
“Good girl. That’s my Luna.”
“Once tomorrow’s over, we’ll go visit your grandpa together. He’ll be at peace.”
The next day, the press conference began.
I moved like a soulless puppet, forced under Harvey and Liam’s orchestration to bow and apologize. First to the so–called victim’s
family, then to Emily and Jeff.
After that, I faced a sea of bloodthirsty glares from the gathered wolves… And a barrage of vicious questions from reporters.
“We heard Walter used to abuse she–wolves in private. As his sister, did you know?”
“Word is, the girl Walter killed looked a lot like you. Was she your stand–in?”
“Did you and your brother have… an inappropriate relationship?”
The constant flashes from the cameras felt like knives flaying my skin, stripping me down piece by piece.
Jeff let out an exaggerated whistle, his tone full of filth.
“Oh yeah, that bastard was planning his sister’s birthday party right before he died!”
“Tell me that’s not creepy as hell.”
“Look at her. She shows up to a press conference wearing a skirt–tell me she doesn’t live for male attention.”
I trembled with rage, ready to leap at him and tear his mouth apart.
But before I could move, Harvey clamped a hand down on my shoulder and held his phone up again, the same live feed from the
nursing home blinking at me.
I had no choice but to dig my nails into my palms, forcing myself not to cry.
Emily, seeing me on my knees and about to collapse, walked over with a facade of kindness. But when no one was looking, she rolled her
eyes at me smugly.
Then she leaned down and whispered in my ear.
“You wouldn’t take my apology before. Well, now look at you–Alpha’s daughter or not, you’re gonna wear the label of ‘sinner‘ for life.”
And as if that wasn’t enough, she dug her fingers cruelly into my waist.
The sharp pain made me yelp, which only drew more displeased looks from the crowd.
“Look! She’s still acting defiant! This bitch still doesn’t know her place! Let’s teach her!”
That one shout set everything off. The pack warriors who were supposed to be on standby were instantly overwhelmed.
Victim’s family and random wolves from the audience surged onto the stage and began beating me mercilessly, kicking me from every
direction without waiting for anyone’s approval.
“Harvey! Liam! Help me!”
“No! Please! My baby-!”
But my voice was drowned in fists and shouts.
Right before I lost consciousness, the last thing I saw was Harvey and Liam… Shielding Emily through the chaos and safely escorting her away.
The blows kept coming until someone finally noticed the blood soaking through the lower half of my clothes.

Only then did the crowd scatter in panic. Two remaining staff members quickly dialed for help.
But when the ambulance arrived at the werewolf hospital, we were all blocked at the gates.
“Apologies. The hospital’s been sealed off today by order of Alpha Harvey and Liam.”
“The pet rabbit of Alpha Harvey’s lover is giving birth right now. He made it very clear–no risks, no distractions.”
The pack nurse was frantic.
“The woman in the ambulance is suffering from uterine abruption. She’s dying! She can’t wait!”
