Chapter 49

“What are you talking about?!‘

Daran grabbed Janet’s hand forcefully and snapped, “I paid your ransom! I thought those rogues would let you go, just like they set Harper free!”

“Stop fu cking lying!” Janet shook him off and growled back, “You only paid Harper’s share! Because you only cared about her! If we weren’t mates, you would marry Harper instead of me, wouldn’t you!”

She hated Daran for choosing Harper instead of her.

As her mate and lawful husband, Daran had betrayed her from beginning to end. She

could never forgive Daran for that.

But a long time had passed since then. Janet had a family now, a brother who truly cared about her. She didn’t give a damn about Daran anymore.

Why couldn’t Daran leave her alone?!

“There must be some misunderstandings between us, Janet.” Daran insisted firmly, “Let’s talk it out. I hate to see us like this.”

Janet found him unreasonable, “Are you fu cking kidding me now? You never showed

me the same kind of interest when I was married to you! Why? Because I am the Alpha’s sister now and you suddenly find me much more attractive?!”

Daran looked indignant, “Is this how you think of me? I have been trying to talk to you ever since you came back! It was you who pushed me out over and over again! Why can’t you just give me a chance!”

“BECAUSE-!”

Janet raised her volume.

She was basically screaming now.

“BECAUSE you threw away that chance already when you rejected me! If you really care about me that much, why did you reject me! Why abandoned me when I needed you the most!”

Daran’s face was pale.

He rejected Janet because he was told by many people–including Harper, Hellen, and many of his pack members–that Janet was not the Luna material.

Yet now he found out that all those people who he once believed in were not trustworthy. What they said about Janet might also be wrong.

So was it too late to win back Janet now?
