By the time the sun began to rise, I had become a joke among the pack, my mother’s lifeless body a silent testament to the tragedy of the night. Her heart, already weakened, couldn’t bear the shame, and she passed away that very night.

The image was intimate, their faces close, and their bodies touching. Trembling with rage, I took a screenshot and sent it to Trent. "Is this why you missed our wedding?"
