O
His father had once said, “Every Alpha dreams of having a respectable mate to solidify the pack’s status, and a beautiful lover to keep him happy.” 1
“If you have feelings for her, perhaps you can keep her as your mistress!”
Wyatt had assumed that since Liliana had feelings for him, she would be happy to be his mistress even if she couldn’t be his mate. To his surprise, she had married Jaxon instead.
Wasn’t she infatuated with him? How could she just marry someone else?
Wyatt slammed his fist into the wall in a rage, startling his Beta assistant.
“Alpha, what’s wrong? Are you unwell?”
Wyatt snapped back to reality, realizing he was thinking about Liliana again.
No, he was supposed to love Willa.
An unfaithful Omega like Liliana was not
as not worthy of his love.
Just then, the steward of the Mistwood pack
urned
to report that Willa had gone into the
forest yesterday to visit her mother’s grave and had not yet returned.
Upon hearing the news, Wyatt immediately went out to look for Willa. He vaguely remembered a small cabin in the forest. Perhaps it had gotten too late, and Willa had decided to rest there.
Following his memory, he quickly found the cabin.
As he approached the structure, he heard a series of shameless moans coming from inside.
Wyatt stopped in his tracks and quietly peeked through the cabin window.
Inside, Willa was naked, wrapped around another man. His hands roamed freely over her body.
“Miss Mistwood, it’s been a while. I thought you had forgotten about me!”
Willa looked at him with a seductive gaze, then replied angrily, “You’re the one who forced me to take that wolfsbane stimulant, saying it would do
my pleasure. But after taking it, I almost really did lose control!”
མ
“Today is the last time we’ll meet. After I bond with Wyatt, we won’t see each other again.”
The man rolled over, hovering above her body.
!
“Then today, I’ll have to get one last good taste of the future Luna of Ravencrest.”
Wyatt immediately recognized the man–it was her music tutor, Silas. An uncontrollable rage surged within him.
The unfaithful bitch! How dare she bond with me while carrying on with another man? This is an insult to my family!
He would make her pay.
Wyatt turned and left in a fury. After returning home, he summoned his assistant and whispered

his instructions.
The next day, as soon as Willa returned home, she received an invitation from Wyatt, saying he had prepared a surprise for her at a five–star hotel downtown.
She remembered it was her birthday and assumed Wyatt must have prepared a grand celebration for her.
That evening, Willa changed into an expensive gown and put on her diamond necklace and earrings. To complete the look, she also carried a pricey designer bag and called her friends to show off her outfit.
In the ballroom, Willa watched Wyatt approach, her cheeks flushing with excitement.
He smiled at her. “Happy birthday, Willa. I’ve prepared a big gift for you.”
Willa’s eyes sparkled with anticipation and surprise. “Oh, you shouldn’t have. I’d be happy with anything you gave me.”
With a clap of his hands, Wyatt’s men dragged in a man covered in blood and bruises.
As soon as the man saw Willa, he fell to his knees and begged, “Save me, Willa… please!”
Seeing that it was her lover, Silas, Willa began to panic. She forced herself to remain calm and asked Wyatt, “What are you doing?”
Wyatt stared at her coldly. “Carrying on with scum like this, have you no shame?! You’re a disgrace to our pack! What do you think I should do with you?”
Willa, with tears in her eyes, shook her head.
“This must be a misunderstanding, Wyatt! I’ve been framed! I don’t even know this man…”
Wyatt glanced at him.
“Since Miss Mistwood claims not to know you, I suppose you’re deliberately trying to ruin our pack’s reputation! Chop him up and feed him to the wild wolves!”
Facing the threat of death, the kneeling man shouted, “Miss Mistwood, you were the one who took a liking to me when I was teaching you music. You made the first move! If you don’t believe me, I know you have a round, blue birthmark on your hip and a mole on your left breast!”
As soon as he finished speaking, all eyes turned to Willa.
One of her friends exclaimed in shock, “How does he know that, Willa…”
This seemed to confirm the truth of the man’s words.
Willa’s panicked reaction only exposed more of her misdeeds. Not just the affair–she even admitted to framing Liliana multiple times.
Willa’s father rushed over after hearing the commotion. Enraged by the shame brought upon his pack, he grabbed a knife, intending to kill the adulterous pair. In the end, the crowd managed to subdue and restrain him.
The injured man was taken to the pack’s disciplinary hall, while Willa was exiled to the remote Convent of Penance, where silver–lined walls would be her home for the rest of her life.
