Chapter 42
They say the deadliest thing in a wolf pack isn’t fangs–it’s deception.
Noah Greaves had always been good at hiding things.
He could smile and walk Aria down the red carpet for the cameras, while I lay in a pool of blood, phone call unanswered, and post a memorial for me the next day.
“May the deceased rest in peace. You deserved better in your next life.” – @NoahGreaves
The comments section went wild.
“You’re too kind.”

“Let’s hope she won’t disturb you and Aria anymore.”
“Finally, you and Aria are official!”
Meanwhile, I was in the Southern Moonscar Tribe’s valley, piecing my shattered soul together after severing my Alpha bond.
“They buried me well,” I muttered, scrolling through trending topics.

The last one was posted by Kara Venn, a Beta, Aria’s best friend, and now self–proclaimed “Chief Organizer of the Engagement Committee.” She even released

a falsified DNA report claiming my child didn’t belong to Noah.
I clenched my jaw and closed the screen.
My son Caelum–barely six weeks inside me -had already been judged and condemned by the world.
“You really want to go public?” Rima Sola, the healer, stood by the window, looking concerned.
“I have to,” I said.
“But your awakening isn’t complete. Your spiritual core is unstable.”
“Exactly,” I smiled coldly. “Let them see that I’m no longer the docile, obedient ‘contract mate.“”

“What are you planning?”
“A broadcast.”
That night, I stood atop the Moon Shrine, dressed in the tribe’s white ceremonial robe, and activated the live stream.
Over eight million viewers flooded in within minutes.
【Wasn’t she dead?!]
【What is this–some rural ritual cosplay?)
【Wait… if she’s alive, what does that say about Noah?】
I stared into the lens, voice cool and sharp:
“My name is Sadie Hale, Omega. I’m the one you called missing, unstable, or dead.”

“I didn’t die. And I’m not insane.”
“I was betrayed.”
Two minutes in, the tide began to turn.
[She’s pale. Looks desperate.】
[She’s lying for sympathy. Noah’s a good guy.】
【Wait, is that a healing sigil on her belly?!)
I calmly lifted the protective charm from my abdomen, revealing the glowing symbols and a stabilizing fetal rune.
“I’m alive because I had to protect my child.”
“You said he wasn’t Noah’s? Then explain this spiritual resonance report–authorized

and verified by the Elder Council.”
I displayed the documents in full.
The stream glitched for several seconds. Several major accounts disappeared from the viewership list.
In the North, chaos exploded.
Noah went from “beloved Alpha fiancé” to “predatory scumbag,”
Aria was labeled “homewrecker moonlight,”
and Kara got every one of her platforms banned.
They hadn’t expected me to fight back- certainly not like this.
But most of all, they hadn’t expected me to

survive.
Three days later, a formal request arrived from House Greaves.
“They’re asking for mediation,” Rima said grimly at the council meeting. “Claiming you’re mentally unstable and must be ‘re–admitted‘ into treatment.”
I laughed. “Then let’s show them how unstable I can be.”
That night, I sat in my meditation chamber when my head split with agony.
An unauthorized psychic connection tore through my mental barriers.
“Alpha imprint detected–attempting reconnection.”

“Noah,” I hissed.
He was forcing a bond reactivation–trying to awaken old subservience buried in my Omega core.
“Don’t you dare…” I gasped, sweat pouring down my face.
A sudden surge exploded from within me–my child’s energy fused with mine, awakening something deeper.
A flash of silver.
I unleashed my spiritual energy with a
scream-
Boom.
The chamber shook. Devices cracked. Rima and several Deltas rushed in.

“She’s countering it!” Rima shouted. “But the overload-”
“I said, don’t touch me!” I roared.
When I opened my eyes, the link had been burned away.
Alric arrived shortly after, his expression unreadable.
“Sadie Hale,” he said, “as of this moment, you are officially recognized as a Silvertail Awakened–provisional heir.”
I looked at my hand, the silver lines glowing faintly.
I wasn’t a victim anymore.
I was a threat.

And then Riven brought news.
“There’s a Lunar Bonding Ceremony next week. The Council wants you to attend.”
My brows furrowed. “That’s an Alpha–Omega pairing ritual.”
“Yes,” Riven replied. “But this time, you’re the ‘exception.“”
“…What does that mean?”
He hesitated. “Noah will be there.”
I turned toward the distant sky, moonlight slicing across my face.
Fine.
If he wants to see me again-
