I was curled up on my bed, writhing in pain. Every part of my body felt like it was on fire, and the agony was unbearable. I knew exactly why this was. happening, but that didn't make it any easier to endure. The punishment was cruel and senseless-the loyal partner suffers when the other finds their mate. How could this happen? How could Annika be Titus' mate? The thought alone drove me mad. But the searing pain ripping through me was proof. They were together right now, and this torment was the result of them sharing a bed. together.

I tried to focus on anything to distract myself, but it was useless. The pain was too strong, and there was no escape. My mind was a storm of emotions- anger, jealousy, heartbreak-all mixed with the physical pain.

The room spun around me as I gasped for air. I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms, trying to ground myself. Each minute felt like an hour, and each second an eternity of torment.

This punishment felt like a cruel joke. I had stayed loyal, yet I was the one suffering. The bond, meant to unite us, had become a source of unimaginable. pain.

"I'm sorry, my lady. I tried to ask for some medicine for the pain, but they wouldn't give me any. This is cruel. You did nothing wrong, my lady," Elara said as she was crying because there's nothing she can do to help.

Holt had already told me about what my father did to Titus. Even though I'm not sure if it's true, I still don't think it's fair for me to be held responsible for something I wasn't involved in.

"It's fine, Elara. I can handle it," I assured her, my breath growing more labored.

"Your wolf is gone. Any she-wolf would struggle with this pain, even with their wolf sharing the burden. But you're enduring all of it with a human-like body.

I'm not sure you'll be able to withstand it. I'm afraid you might die, my lady! I need to tell His Majesty," Elara said, her voice filled with panic. "N-No... argh!" I screamed in agony as another wave of pain hit my stomach, feeling like I was being run over by a thousand trucks repeatedly. "N-No, don't." I managed to gasp between breaths. "He's the one who wanted this. plea won't change anything." I told her, struggling to catch my breath. "My lady..." was all she could say.

I forced a smile, trying to reassure her. "Don't worry about me, Elara. I've been through worse. I can handle this-argh!" I curled into a ball, clutching my chest as the pain made it hard to breathe, feeling as if something was squeezing the life out of me. Elara kneeled beside me, her face etched with worry. "My lady, I can't just stand by and watch you suffer like this," she said, her voice trembling. "There must be something we can do."

I shook my head weakly, my vision blurring from the pain. "No, Elara. I can't risk putting you in the middle of this. I have no power to protect you. "Just stay out of this."

"But, my lady..." she insisted, her eyes filling with tears. "There has to be another way."

I gritted my teeth, trying to suppress another scream. "Once this is over, I'll find a way," I whispered.

Elara nodded, wiping her tears. She took my hand in hers, offering a small measure of comfort amidst the torment. "I'm here, my lady. I won't leave you."

The minutes dragged on like hours, each second a new wave of agony. My mind drifted, trying to find some escape from the relentless pain. Memories. of happier times flickered through my thoughts, but they only served as a stark contrast to the nightmare as enduring. Suddenly, a new, sharper pain ripped through my chest, and I cried out, unable to hold back. Elara squeezed my hand tighter, her own fear palpable.

"Hold on, my lady. Just hold on," she urged, her voice breaking.

1 clung to her words, trying to find strength in her presence. The room seemed to spin, and darkness crept at the edges of my vision. I knew I was losing the battle to stay conscious, but I fought to hang on. "Elara..." I whispered, my voice barely audible. "If... if I don't make it..."

"Don't say that," she interrupted, her grip on my hand tightening. "You will make it. You have to."

I tried to smile, though it felt more like a grimace. "If I don't, promise me that you'll take care of yourself, okay? I have few friends in this life, and you're among the few I consider part of my family."

Elara nodded, tears streaming down her face. "My lady..."

When I slowly opened my eyes, I was greeted by the familiar ceiling of my chamber. Every part of my body screamed in pain, even with the slightest movement. I pushed myself up despite the agony coursing through me. "My lady- I heard Elara's voice, but she quickly halted her words, as if someone
