(Victoria's POV)

At the moment the silver-edged blade was about to strike, I did not close my eyes. I just looked at Ethan Stone.

Deep down, there was also a heart-wrenching pain. The Alpha King I deeply loved truly hated me, wishing for my death.

His amber eyes burned with such fury that my wolf whimpered and retreated deeper within me. The blade gleamed in the dim warehouse light, poised to end everything.

But amidst the complex emotions, the expected pain did not come. The silver- edged hunting knife did aim for my heart, but it stopped just as it was about to pierce my chest.

My eyes lit up, and I blurted out almost instinctively, "Ethan, you can't bear to kill me, can you? You still have feelings for me, don't you?"

Hope flared in my chest like a desperate flame. Maybe there was still something left of what we once shared.

Ethan sneered, his amber gaze towards me filled with bone-chilling coldness. He changed the direction of the blade, pressing it against my scarred wounds.

"I just don't want to dirty my hands. Death was too easy for you."

The silver burned against my torn flesh, and I screamed as fresh agony tore through me. My wolf cowered in terror at the Alpha's dominance.

"Victoria Frost, your tricks don't work on me. I will personally send you to silver prison and make you suffer more than death."

Although hearing about Silver Prison made me tremble with fear, hearing that I wouldn't die made me visibly relax. Everyone was afraid of death, especially someone as refined as me.
