The footage showed me confronting Mira about where she’d gotten my mother’s bracelet.
Every moment of Mira’s mockery, slander, and manipulation was captured on camera.
The entire surveillance footage hit Ronan like a lightning bolt to the heart.
He collapsed to the ground, gasping for air.
“АННН!”
From learning of my death to now realizing how deeply he’d misjudged me, days of suppressed emotions finally exploded.
His eyes turned bloodshot as he pounded the ground with his fists.
“Why! Why didn’t I believe her!”
Ronan returned home in devastation. The neighbor couldn’t help but call out harshly.
“The day of the first snow, your Luna ran out of the house crying. Do you know how heartbroken she was?”
“I don’t understand why you’d deceive a she–wolf who loved you so much. You deserve everything you’re going through now!“****
Ronan hung his head, not arguing, tears silently streaming down his face.
He remembered that day–how I sat in the pavilion wearing thin clothes, staring blankly at the first snow.
It should have been a happy moment.
But my eyes had been red and swollen.
News of the Cross Pack Luna’s suicide quickly hit the headlines.
Online users dug up all our past romantic entanglements.
Soon, the video footage Ronan had worked so hard to suppress resurfaced on social media, with countless users pointing fingers at Mira.
They exposed how Mira had faked her suicide attempt, clearly a strong swimmer, yet deliberately pushed down the woman trying to save her–obviously murder.
Others revealed that Mira’s current mate was my ex–boyfriend of five years, and that Evan had bonded with my sister before we’d even broken up.
Users even discovered that my current Alpha, Ronan, had pursued Mira multiple times before.

Suddenly rumors exploded everywhere.
People believed these predators around me had gradually pushed me toward depression, toward the abyss of suicide.
When I received this news abroad, the New Year had already passed back home.
Yes, I wasn’t dead. From the moment I decided to sever our bond, I’d contacted the rogue network.
Seeing those news reports, I just watched with detachment.
I’d let go of my love for him. Now, I just wanted to watch them suffer.
Preferably until they destroyed themselves.
Maybe my mother’s death would never see justice, but I’d use public opinion to ensure they never knew peace.
The Northern Territories‘ harsh winters and isolated wilderness created a lonely existence, but it suited me perfectly.
To adapt faster to life among the northern packs, I enrolled in a language school to systematically learn their dialects and customs.
Leaving hadn’t been as difficult as I’d imagined.
Instead, I felt lighter than I had in years.
But ever since my “death,” Alpha Ronan–once so confident and commanding–had completely changed.
He locked himself in his room all day, drinking himself into oblivion day and night.
But no matter how many times he drowned in alcohol, I never once appeared in his dreams.
Just as he was crying helplessly, a pair of hands grabbed his wrists.
The woman looked at him with concern: “Ronan, you need to stop drinking. The dead can’t come back–you have to
learn to let go.”
He violently shook off Mira’s hands, his bleary eyes gradually clearing.
His gaze filled with disgust and hatred.
The next second, he reached out and wrapped his hands around Mira’s throat.
The hatred in his eyes became tangible.
“Mira, why did you lie to me? Why did you desecrate Lyra’s mother’s grave? How could you be so fucking evil!”
With that, he threw her hard to the ground.
The woman stared in disbelief at Ronan approaching her step by step.

“Ronan, what’s wrong with you?”
“I’m your beloved Mira!”
Ronan watched her coldly, his eyes no longer holding any trace of their former adoration: “Still going to keep pretending? You think I didn’t investigate you after I found out I’d been played?”
“How could you do something so vile? You killed Lyra!”
Hearing her former lapdog tear into her so brutally, Mira froze completely.
She laughed bitterly, throwing caution to the wind.
“You think I killed her?”
“Ronan, what the hell are you pretending for? She and I never got along. The one who really killed her was you–the
one she trusted.”
“You’re the one who offered to claim Lyra to help me torment her. Now you’re pinning it all on me? Like it’s my
fault?”
Ronan’s expression gradually turned ashen as he collapsed weakly to the floor.
“You’re right… it’s all my fault.”
The situation continued to escalate, the impact growing more severe.
“Alpha Cross, we have a problem. The pack’s territories are being challenged by rival Alphas.”
