Scarlett Reed, a once-gifted deaf moonstone totem carver of the Southern Lycan Continent, endured a miserable childhood neglected by her biased parents. After suffering endless betrayal and harm, she met Zane Reed, the powerful Alpha of Shadow Pack. For four years, Zane chased and protected her, vowing eternal loyalty and even sacrificing his heritage for their bond. Scarlett gradually opened her heart and mated with him, only to discover his secret affair with Cecilia Spencer, the pack’s healer.
On her 28th birthday, Scarlett witnessed Zane’s infidelity with her own eyes. Months earlier, her dormant wolf soul had awakened, restoring her hearing, letting her catch all his deceptive words and secret conversations. Cecilia kept sending provocative messages and intimate photos to humiliate Scarlett, flaunting her pregnancy with Zane’s pup.
Crushed by endless lies, Scarlett secretly applied for a fake death plan to erase all her identity records. She recorded solid evidence of their affair and scheduled it to play at their four-year mating anniversary. Right before the ceremony, she severed their soul bond and fled to the Northern Continent under a new name Monoria, to rebuild her life free from heartbreak. Zane, consumed by regret and grief, hunted her relentlessly after learning the truth.
