Chapter 2

• 【Sunna's POV】
• The caring words from Lycan Viserys made my nose tingle, almost bringing tears to my eyes again.
• I realized that I hadn't been truly cared for in so long that even a little warmth would move me deeply.
• Looking back, I felt even more foolish, always helping Simon achieve his dreams without any demands of my own, to the point where I ended up in this situation.
• "Thank you, Your Majesty, but I can handle these things on my own."
• Simon disappointed me so much that I didn't even have thoughts of revenge, I just wanted to leave this man I had loved for years as soon as possible.
• In fact, my calm departure would be the greatest punishment for him - I managed the daily affairs of the Sky Pack, and I was also in charge of the core drone project of the Sky Group. When I leave, both the Pack and the Group will immediately fall into chaos.
• By then, Simon will realize how important the "burden" in his eyes was to him, he may even lose everything.
• "Yes, I forgot, you were once a member of the Empire's Blade: the Wolf Tooth Special Forces, not a delicate little girl."
• Viserys smiled slightly and took my hand, leading me outside. "I'll take you to meet your parents."
• On the square of the military camp, the flag of the Empire of Helin fluttered in the wind. A burly figure stood under the national flag, holding a sandalwood urn, with an endless line of Empire soldiers behind him.
• Viserys took my parents' ashes and solemnly handed them to me. Then, he bowed first: "The entire Black Flame Legion of the Empire of Helin salutes the hero!"
• Among the salute of thousands of soldiers, I held my parents' ashes in my arms, tears welling up in my eyes.
• Dad, Mom, your daughter is taking you home.
• Viserys personally escorted me to the gate of the military district. As we parted, he solemnly told me, "If you need any help, you can come to me. The Empire will never mistreat the family of any national hero!"
• I thanked him sincerely again and then drove away.
• "Simon, you should cut ties with Sunna as soon as possible. That woman is not worthy of being the Luna of the Sky Pack. Only outstanding werewolves like Caroline are suitable mates for you."
• As soon as I returned home, I heard Simon's mother, Luna Hoyle, speaking in the living room.
• Her tone was full of disdain when she mentioned me, and pride when she talked about Caroline.
• "Mom is right! What qualifications does Sunna have to be Luna with Caroline? Her presence will only bring shame to Caroline and our Sky Pack!"
• This was Simon's sister Elis speaking, her tone more aggressive than Hoyle's. "Caroline comes from a powerful family and is an excellent werewolf herself. Sunna? Just an orphan from a destitute family! She can only survive by attaching herself to our family, a woman like her deserves to be nothing more than a plaything!"
• Simon calmly replied, "Although Sunna may not be very useful, she hasn't committed any major mistakes. How can we just strip her of her Luna status and drive her away? Once she becomes a stray werewolf without the Pack's protection, she will be better off dead."
• Hoyle chimed in, "I don't care! Didn't she go to get her parents' ashes? Well, I won't allow her to keep the ashes at home. She can only do so if she throws them in the trash!"
• Elis clapped her hands, "That's a good idea! That useless woman seems to have deep feelings for her parents, she definitely won't do that. Let her roll with her parents' ashes when the time comes!"
• "These vicious bitches!"
• My wolf Diana roared furiously inside me.
• I felt even more sorrow for my past self - I treated Simon's mother and sister as family, always going out of my way to help them whenever they needed it, even at the cost of my own discomfort. I never expected them to see me in such a despicable light, to the point of pushing me to a dead end.
• At that moment, Elis noticed me and angrily pointed at me, "Shameless! You were eavesdropping on our conversation!"
• I used to avoid conflict with Elis, not wanting to trouble Simon, but now I wouldn't bend over backwards for them anymore.
• "This is my home too!"
• I stared into Elis's eyes and told her, "I didn't hide or eavesdrop. Where did the eavesdropping come from?"
• Elis seemed surprised by my assertiveness, hesitated for a few seconds, then blushed with anger and shouted, "This is not your home! Simon just lets you stay here! You should know your place, realize that you're not worthy of Simon, let alone being Luna of the Sky Pack! You should leave him early and not delay his happiness with Caroline!"
• "Elis, that's enough!"
• Simon's voice was stern.
• As the Alpha, Simon's words carried weight. Elis, though clearly unhappy, just pursed her lips and didn't dare say anything more.
• Simon walked up to me and looked at the urn covered with the imperial flag in my hands, "Is this your parents' ashes?"
• I nodded expressionlessly.
• The next second, the piercing scream hurt my eardrums.
• "Oh my god! Ashes!? How could you bring such dirty things back home!?"
• Hoyle screamed, glaring at me fiercely: "Get out! Throw that dirty thing outside! Otherwise, just get lost!"
• Even though I had just heard their plan, this still angered me. My parents are the people I respect and love the most! I retorted loudly, "These are my parents' ashes, how can they be dirty!?"
• Elis shouted to Simon, "Simon! Mom just finished treatment, the witch doctor Marzaha said her emotions can't be disturbed, and you still won't let this woman leave!?"
• Simon frowned, hesitated briefly, and then said to me, "You better go out first, just find a place to put the ashes."
• At that moment, a strong sense of disgust dominated my emotions. I angrily shouted, "Simon! We've been together for three years, I've given everything to help you achieve your dreams, I've been with you from nothing to today!"
• I pointed at Elis, "Your sister encountered trouble that needed to be dealt with, no matter how difficult or tiring, I have never refused, never complained!"
• Then I pointed at Hoyle, "Your mother's eyes have a serious illness, her self-healing ability is almost gone, many witch doctors say she will go blind. It was me who ran all over Hunterston, used all my connections, and found the best witch doctor Marzaha in the empire to save her eyes!"
• My angry gaze swept over the faces of this family, and I questioned them soulfully, "I treated you all as real family, but am I not just a burden, a parasite, and not even worthy of basic respect!? Are you all cold-blooded animals!?"
• The huge house fell into dead silence, all I could hear was my own rapid breathing.
• I thought my questioning would make them reflect on their behavior and feel ashamed, but the reality proved that I had overestimated the bottom line of this family. They really were cold-blooded animals.
• "Don't flatter yourself!"
• Elis pointed at me disdainfully, "What helping Simon achieve his dreams, Simon can grow the company, become the Alpha, and expand the Pack's influence, it's his ability, nothing to do with you!"
• "As for me and my mother, our problems were solved, it was because of others looking at Simon, looking at the face of the Sky Pack, and because we have money! Don't act like you played a big role!"
• Hoyle screamed again, "Simon! What are you waiting for? Don't you make her throw that dirty thing out? Do you want me to go blind?"
• Simon's face darkened, and he said to me, "Sunna, you heard him. Don't make it difficult for me."
• I glanced at the hand he took out of his pocket and asked, "What if I don't? Are you going to lay a hand on me?"
• Simon replied coldly, "If you insist on pushing me. You know, I love my mother very much. If anything happens to her, I won't forgive you."
• At this point, I had nothing more to say.
• I admit, I was blind and foolish before, to silently endure so much for this family.
• I blame myself for being too naive, blinded by love, only now seeing everything clearly.
• After calming down the frantic Diana, I nodded and said, "Alright, as you wish, I will leave, taking my parents and my belongings, and never return here."
• I stared into Simon's eyes and declared with a firm tone I had never shown in front of him before, "I, Luna-Sunna-Konstanz, reject Alpha-Simon-Duke as my Mate! From now on, we have no relationship whatsoever!"
