Chapter 3
- 【Simon's POV】
- In my heart, Sunna is a good woman. I like her unconditional love for me and her compliance. Because of this, even though I feel that she, as Luna, has more symbolic significance than actual influence in the Pack or the company, I have never thought about breaking up with her.
- But today, she was acting strange. She was like a mad wolf, openly arguing with me and even wanting to reject me!
- After she said that, the invisible thread connecting us was about to break, but at the critical moment, a mysterious force prevented this disconnection - it was the power of the moon goddess.
- In the Heling Empire, the werewolf clan has absolute faith in the moon goddess. All werewolves who become Mates must hold a ceremony and invite the moon goddess to witness it in order to receive blessings. Similarly, if they want to break up, they must also obtain the moon goddess's permission.
- I am the Alpha, Sunna is the Luna. The ceremony we need to break up requires a higher specification and must be conducted by the high priest of the Hunterston Grand Priesthood. Only after that can we formally break up.
- I was angry. Just because I didn't allow her to put her parents' ashes in the house, she made such an extreme move. She knew that my mother couldn't handle the stress!
- No matter who her parents are, or what they have done, can the dead be more important than the living? She is so unreasonable, it disappoints me!
- My mother was also angry. She said to me excitedly, "Simon, do you see this? This is the Mate you chose. Haven't we been good enough to her? We let this useless woman live such a good life, but she doesn't know how to be grateful! How can a woman like her continue to be the Luna of the Sky Pack!?"
- Elis also advised me, "Simon, what qualifications does that woman have to reject you? If you two are going to break up, it should be you rejecting her! You must teach her a lesson and let her know that you are the Alpha, this is your territory, and only you can make major decisions here!"
- Their words made me even more dissatisfied with Sunna's behavior. I turned around and followed her into her room.
- "What are you doing?"
- I grabbed her hand as she was packing her clothes.
- "I think I made myself clear."
- Sunna's tone was cold and indifferent, unlike anything I had ever heard from her, and she didn't even look at me.
- "Are you out of your mind? Just because I won't let you put your parents' ashes in the house? Is that all it takes?"
- I held her chin with my other hand, making her turn her face towards me. "Look at me, do you have anything else to hide from me?"
- She smirked at me. "Simon, do you think everyone betrays their Mate like you? It's a good thing we broke up, isn't it? Now you can be with Caroline, the Luna you like. She can be your only Luna."
- I frowned, warning her. "I don't like the way you're talking to me, and you should know that I'm being kind by letting you and Caroline be Luna together. Now go apologize to my mother and sister, take back what you said, and promise me you won't go crazy again!"
- "Hahaha!"
- Suddenly, Sunna burst into laughter, sending a chill down my spine.
- "Apologize? Simon, why should I apologize!? What have I done wrong, what have I said wrong that requires an apology? The only person I need to apologize to is myself! I was too naive before, thinking that if I was good to others, they would be good to me. Now I know I was wrong!"
- Looking at Sunna, who looked wild, my heart inexplicably ached, as if something important was being pulled out of my life.
- My grip on her chin loosened subconsciously, and she easily shook me off.
- I couldn't help but think back over the years, many times I had left things for Sunna to handle, and she had always been diligent, even if not particularly capable. She never complained, even if she didn't get credit for her hard work.
- Maybe she was just tired - that's what I thought.
- "Let's have a baby."
- I said to her.
- Maybe becoming a mother would make Sunna more sensible, and she had always wanted a child. I had always disagreed, but now, if I gave in, she should understand and stop causing trouble.
- To my surprise, Sunna seemed to hear something extremely absurd, looking at me with an exaggerated expression. "A child? Simon, you really think the problem between us is not having a child?"
- She shook her head repeatedly, suddenly roaring at me. "No, we won't have a child, I will never have a child for you! It's over between us!"
- Sunna's behavior made me very angry. I grabbed her throat, squeezing tightly. "Never speak to your Alpha like that! It's only over when I say it's over, got it!?"
- "Roar!"
- Sunna roared and transformed into a wolf, breaking free from my grasp. "Simon, you may be the Alpha, but I am no longer your Luna, nor a member of your Sky Pack!"
- I was stunned. This woman, who had always been gentle as a little dog in front of me, when did she become so wild?
- Realizing this, my anger surged up and my wolf was restless, eager to come out and teach this woman a lesson.
- "It seems I've been too good to you, to the point where you dare to defy me now!"
- Just as I was about to act, the phone rang, with the special ringtone I set for Caroline.
- I took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing my anger, and said to Sunna, "I have something to attend to. You calm down and think it over. You better know that me coming to talk to you is an act of kindness. If I really kick you out of the Pack, you will live a miserable life."
- With that, I turned and left. But as I was about to exit the room, I heard Sunna's cold voice behind me, "Simon, we're done. Who will live a miserable life after the break-up, we'll only know after it's done. And I'm not afraid."
- 【Sunna's POV】
- Not long after Simon left, Hoyle and Elis entered my room.
- "Sunna, since Simon has decided to reject you and you have no objections, go ahead and press your blood handprint here."
- Elis handed me a document, "This contract to dissolve the Mate relationship is signed. We can contact the High Priest of the Priestess Group to conduct the ritual."
- In a condescending tone, Hoyle said insincerely, "We, the Sky Pack, value loyalty. Considering you were once part of the family, we will give you ten million. You can live comfortably for the rest of your life, on the condition that you never harass Simon again!"
- Ten million?
- I felt disdainful. The main asset of the Sky Pack, Sky Group, with a market value of billions today, owes much to me!
- But I didn't care. I cared even less about Elis's little plan to save face by saying it was Simon's decision to reject me. I just wanted to leave as soon as possible and never see this family again.
- Without any hesitation, I pressed my blood handprint.
- "Great! Finally rid of this parasite! As long as Simon also presses his handprint, the Sky Pack will have a new Luna!"
- Elis looked pleased and quickly put away the contract.
- From her words, it was clear that Simon was unaware of this whole situation.
- Hoyle was overjoyed and immediately went back on her word: "I've changed my mind. For a parasite like you, giving you ten million is too much. We'll only give you one million, no, ten thousand. That's all you're worth!"
- With a sly smile, she said to me, "It's too late for you to back out now. You've already signed the contract!"
- By now, I had packed up all my things. I dragged them along, holding my parents' ashes close to me, and told Hoyle, "I won't back out. I don't need a single cent of the money. Just make sure Simon cooperates to handle this matter as soon as possible. But I must warn you, if you regret it one day, don't come begging to me, because I won't show any mercy!"
- With that, I left the place where I had lived for so long without looking back.
- Outside, the sun was shining brightly, the air was fresh, and the world seemed more beautiful than ever.
