Chapter 14

The operating room was chaotic when I entered.

Through the transparent glass, my attention was immediately drawn to the electrocardiogram monitor. It was emitting warning sounds, sending a nerve-racking sensation down my spine.

Faye's condition was even worse than I had anticipated.

Damn it!

We hadn't withdrawn any blood from her yet today. She was such a fool!

But I also blamed myself. I should have noticed that something was off about her, but I chose to believe her nonsensical words.

I couldn't believe that I had thought she would want to trade the secrets of the Orthodox werewolf Pack for her own salvation.

What a fool I was!

In hindsight, I attributed it all to my instinct.

Although I didn't want to admit it, deep down, I wanted to believe in her and get close to her. She was, after all, my second mate!

However, my true mate, Sonja, was still alive.

The Moon Goddess had played a cruel joke on me by arranging for me to have a second mate!
