Chapter 401

Third Person’s POV

“What has Adelaide ever done for you? Managed the Bloodmoon Pack’s finances and internal affairs? Sent your family small gifts and clothes? Cared for your mother? Aren’t these all part of her duties as your Luna? And those tasks aren’t even specifically for you–they’re what she’s obliged to do. So where exactly have you wronged her?”

“Is it because you failed to honor your commitment to Airella?”

A bitter taste filled Ulrik’s mouth as he connected the dots, realizing Velda might be right.

“You’ve wronged me. You had Adelaide first, then mated with Gloria. Yet I never caused a scene. I stayed within the Bloodmoon Pack, waiting for a chance to regain honor and working toward our future.”

After a long while, she spoke through her tears, “Do you have any idea how hard each day is for me? If I were any other woman, enduring what I have, I would have taken my own life long ago.”

Velda’s cries struck Ulrik’s heart like hammer blows, leaving him both bewildered and distressed.
