Bryson’s POV

I looked at the woman who was taking steps away from me and wondered why I was frozen in

my spot. The pain was still cursing through my body, and yet I felt so numb as I stared at her

retreating figure.

Why was I feeling affected?

My eyes flickered when I saw Elena’s footsteps halting midway, but then my heart

immediately tingled with unexplainable emotions when she continued walking until she

vanished from my sight.

My heart cramped in pain again, almost making me crawl if it weren’t for Glenda, who hastily

supported me.

“Bryson, are you okay?” Glenda asked, but I kept silent.

‘No, I’m not,‘ I thought as I pushed her away and went back to my study room in hopes of

relaxing.

“Here, drink this, Alpha. The pain should subside and be more bearable in a few minutes.” One

of the pack doctors gave me a potion, which I immediately gulped down.

The drink burnt through my throat, but it was incomparable to the burn and pain the mate rejection had brought my body.

“What should we do now? A party is coming up this weekend! I need to buy a gown! My friends will laugh at me if I wear a cheap dress! Babe!” Glenda whined as she sat beside me

and pouted like a child.

“Shut up, Glenda!” My mother scolded.

I sighed in relief. I just got rejected, and the pain was still burning through my skin. All I wanted was to rest and not worry about the aftermath of what happened.

“But Auntie-

“There are more important things at hand,” my mother coughed. “Bryson, son, I need to see a doctor and take my medicine… Everyone who specializes in my illness is expensive. How will I

“Bryon, look what you’ve done!” Elyse stood in front of the living room, in the middle of all of

us, and looked at me with blame while she had her hands on her waist.

Sighing in frustration, she pulled out a book record from her shoulder bag and harshly dropped it on the table. “Look! We need a whole lot of allowance for the servant’s wage, not to mention our daily food and necessities! Where will we get all of these now?”

I raised my arm and pinched the bridge of my nose. “Can we not talk about this now?”

Elyse looked at me with disappointment before she shifted her gaze at Glenda and snickered. “Why did you even pick her?”

Looking at her from head to toe, she sarcastically asked, “How did you end up liking her?

There’s no other woman more suitable to be a Luna than Elena.”

“Elyse! Watch your words!” Though I’m not in good shape right now, I’m still the Alpha and

accept no disrespect.

Since the potion from the pack doctor already started taking effect, I stood up and warned her

further, “Glenda is my fated mate. Show her some respect.”

Hearing my tone, she backed away, but that didn’t stop her.

Angrily, she grabbed the record book and pursed her lips. Giving Glenda a quick, disdained

glance, she sarcastically added, “I doubt if she can even bring money in our pack in the future,

much more take care of

your mother.”

I glanced at Glenda, who remained silent at the side.

Before I could even observe Glenda’s reaction further, Elyse went on, “Look what you’ve lost!

Elena took care of Aunt Courtney without complaint for a year and provided for this pack, but

what did you give her in return?”

She pointed at Glenda. “You betrayed Elena for this woman here, and you let Elena get bullied!

I can’t believe you!”

I clenched my fist in anger. I don’t know where Elyse was getting her guts to scold me, but her

words hit me so that I couldn’t scold her back.

Suddenly, Elena’s eyes filled with betrayal, and pain flashed before me. The way how her lips

trembled when she asked me about my vow never to replace her with anyone. The sweet

woman who did everything for my pack on her own for the entire year I’m gone.

And then there’s Glenda… the woman who told me that we needed Elena’s money to keep the

pack running.

I sighed, my head aching more from all of the chaos.

“Let’s talk about this on another day,” I said firmly, giving no room for more discussion.

“Son…”

“Alpha…”

“Babe…”

I heard their calls, but I didn’t mind them further and went straight to my room, frustratedly and furiously slamming myself down in bed.

“Did I do something wrong?” I voiced out, but it was intended for Drake, my wolf.

When we got married, Elena’s smiles and the glint in her eyes kept replaying in my head,

mixing with Glenda’s fierce skills as we battled with the Rogues during the war.

“I don’t know. All I know is that I want to be with our destined mate, but…”

“But what?” I urged when Drake suddenly got silent.

I felt the pain that cursed through him as he sighed. “But I can’t bear to leave Elena either.”

I clenched my heart and closed my eyes, remembering the days I would tirelessly come to the

Ironpaw Pack to spend time with Elena.

“Aren’t you tired?” Elena asked while she stood in the middle of the meadows with a basket in

her hand as she caught the fruits I was picking for her from the trees.

I sent her a wide smile. “I’ll even wait for an eternity just to have you say yes to my proposal.”

I still remember how red her cheeks became then. No matter how exhausted I was from Alpha duties and wars, I’d still find the time to pursue her.

I sighed. It still felt like yesterday, but now everything changed.
