Chapter 7
Looking at the bond–breaking deal handed to him, Mark still hadn’t fully processed it and couldn’t help but ask,
“Dad, what bond–breaking?”
Alpha Frank responded irritably,
“After everything you’ve done to hurt Haley, are you going to keep her
to you for
or the
e rest of her life?”
Mark’s face showed a hint of confusion, and he instinctively turned to look at me.
Haley, are you going to break the mate bond with me? You don’t want to be my Luna anymore?”
I palled my coat tighter around me, calmly replying,
“Yes, I do. Don’t worry, I won’t make you suffer from my poor background anymore.
Mark’s face turned pale, and he lowered his voice,
“That was all just a moment of anger. Why are you taking it so seriously?”
“Haley, I know I’ve done some things wrong before, but that was because I misunderstood you.
“Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, I know you love me. Can’t we just live happily together from now on?”
I looked at Mark, stunned that he could say such things.
H
Seven years of bonding, and all the torment I endured, he thought it could be brushed off as a simple misunderstanding?
The way he downplayed it almost made me laugh out of sheer anger.
I pulled my hand away from his and said coldly,
“Mark, you might be mistaken. I don’t love you at all.”
Mark immediately rebutted, his voice full of confidence.
“If you don’t love me, then why have you always been so obedient to me? Why do you forgive me no matter how wrong I am?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll make it up to you from now on. Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.”
I smirked, my lips curling in sarcasm.
“Since Alpha Frank has jaid everything out for you, I won’t keep anything from you”
“The only reason I sealed the mate band with you back then wasn’t for money or for anyone else, but out of gratitude.”
“Gratitude for what?”
Alpha Frank shook his head.
“At the time, I took her in to the pack and asked Haley to seal the mute bood with you, using her omega status to become the pack’s Lama. This was to cover up the fact that the bluemoon pack had broken off the engagement. It was to divert attention and protect the pack, ensuring the pack member! practions remained under cYDLENÍ

Mark pressed his lips tightly and replied stubbornly.
“I won’t sign it!”
He stared hard at me; his eyes filled with reluctance
“Haley, I don’t believe you don’t have feelings for me. Do you really want to break the mate bond with me?”
Mark wasn’t wrong. After seven years together, I had indeed felt something for him.
But those feelings were short–lived.
After being met with his repeated coldness and neglect, my heart had been wounded beyond repair.
- me.
Before I could say anything, Skylar couldn’t hold back and interrupted, her eyes full of resentment and jealousy as she looked at 1
“Mark, haven’t you always wanted to break the mate bond with her? And you just heard it. She only stayed with you out of gratitude. Now that you’re apart, it’s exactly what you wanted.”
“From now on, we can be together openly, and let the past be the past. I promise I won’t leave you this time.”
But Mark, who once treated her like a treasure, didn’t even glance at her. Instead, he stepped forward, pulling me into a tight embrace and promising
“Haley, I truly realize my mistakes. Can you give me a chance to make things right?”
“I swear, I won’t be with any other she–wolf ever again.”
When he hugged me, I fell a wave of nausea rise in my stomach and pulled away violently.
“Don’t touch me. You make me sick ”
Before I could finish, a wave of dizziness overcame me
Having been locked in the dark room for three days without food or water, my body was already at its breaking point. The sudden shock caused me to faint.
Before I lost consciousness, I could still hear Mark’s panicked voice.
“Beta, get a pack doctor, quick!”
