Ten minutes of sitting quietly at this huge dining table by myself, consuming and tasting almost all the delicious dishes here.And the tense moments ensued. I waited for the moment when I felt sick to my stomach, or my vision blurred, or my head hurt. Or whatever the symptoms were that indicated I had food poisoning.But, what a surprise. I didn't feel anything. The feeling of fullness and bloating in my stomach is common, after devouring so many dishes like a glutton.It's not like this food is poisonous. And Jackson may be away at work. Likewise, the waiters are busy with their duties. I seem to be the only one overthinking here."Elly," I called out to my Wolf, who had been silent. With my body strengthening, she also became calmer emotionally. I could feel that she was able to think clearly and help me accurately from now on."What if we stay in this place for a longer time?" I said, uttering what had been bothering my mind.'And here I thought you were ready to be homeless,' she

"If it's up to me, then I want to leave this place. I want to leave all of you and start a new life. And you two must promise not to come near me. Forever.""Then you're just going to leave your pack?" he retorted rhetorically. "Has living with Hilbert raised your ego level to a significant degree? I thought you still cared about your family, your pack that you loved so much."My forehead furrowed in annoyance at his reply. What does he know about me? He has no idea what I've gone through to get to this day. Countless times I've died near death from starvation.And other people too. For all he knows, I'm tired of hurting the people around me. Wherever I was, David and Hilbert would come after me.And I started thinking. Perhaps leaving my pack in Hilbert's hands was the best course. There was no guarantee that my subordinates would live a quiet and comfortable life even if I managed to let them go.As long as Hilbert was around, he would be after me and torturing me. And I can't let t

"I can't. I can't lose that baby. Do everything in your power to save her!" David yelled at all the doctors in this room to heal me immediately.At the far end of the room, he stood biting his own lip. I could feel his panic. He was so afraid of losing this baby of mine.My act went on for the next few hours. The doctors were still falling for my trick until after a while, they took me to the operating room. David became an emotional Alpha like I'd never seen before.He got angry over trivial things. And refused to wait outside while the doctors examined my pregnancy. This incident made me realize one thing, he really wanted my baby.And his desire seemed unnatural. Who would have thought that my idea this time could uncover two things at once? That David made me his Mate not only because he loved me.But because there was something else he wanted.__________[David's Mansion][7:00 AM]"From now on, one doctor must take care of her every day. Take turns, for a full twenty-four hours.

"Get out of here while I distract him!" he said again, ignoring my confusion that was still hanging high.Jackson then ran into the mansion through the exit door. His strength was so great that he kicked a pair of doorframes to pieces.In his hand, a long sword was thrust forward. His eyes looked angrily at David. I didn't know Alpha, who was so weak in front of his wife, could have a face as fierce as a tiger. It showed that he came very prepared."I thought by killing your life expectancy, you would come to your senses. But I see killing one person is not enough, huh," David said, smiling down at the seriousness with which Jackson faced him.Teresa, who had been in his arms, was pushed roughly just to face Jackson."What crazy thing makes you think you can win a fight against me?" he continued, sarcastically. In contrast to Jackson, David was only armed with a thin split blade in his right hand.But with full awareness, I could read the flow of this fight where David would win. Jack

"Your Majesty, the harbor we're going to will be arriving soon. So how about we take a little rest?" The Beta looked so anxious watching my face so pale with the pain in my belly."The harbor is in sight?" I said, trying to ignore the pain in my belly and trying to think clearly. "If that's the case, just keep going. Don't waste time. I can't let your friends' sacrifices go to waste."He was silent. But I knew something in his heart was pierced with pain. After hearing my decision, the Beta continued to maintain the speed of the horse he was riding at maximum speed.Occasionally, I looked at the road behind us. There was no one lurking, so I could finally breathe a sigh of relief.Their struggle will not end in vain. Whatever happens, I will leave this place. Maybe if I go to a good person, there will be someone willing to help me save Jackson.'Or maybe, I can even save my pack.' I thought, great hope starting to build up in my head again since I was able to escape David's bondage."
