In a split second, my hair stood on end, and I froze with my hand on the doorknob.
Inside, Damien's mocking voice continued: "Sera's such a dumb bitch, I wouldn't bother marking her in a million years."
"Why not just let those outsider wolves have their way with her? Save us the trouble of her chasing other Alphas later."
Someone cautioned: "What if she finds out?"
Damien's tone turned icy, and as he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Sera's more gullible than a lost lamb."
"You wanna bet? After those outsider wolves have their way with her, I'll shed a few fake tears, and she'll probably end up comforting me!"
The pack erupted in raucous laughter.
But some were puzzled.
"Alpha, if you don't want her, why not just kick her out of the pack?"
"Aren't you afraid of breaking her heart by playing games with a she-wolf?"
Damien sneered: "She-wolf?"
He leaned down to kiss Lilith, their tongues intertwining: "Lilith is my only she-wolf. Sera's nothing more than a glorified babysitter."
"If it weren't for her, Lilith's brother would still be alive."
"If I didn't need her to look after my pups with Lilith, I would've already...""Alpha, Sera may have escaped the death penalty, but she won't escape punishment. I'll make sure she pays for what she did to Lilith for the rest of her life," Damien said coldly.
But when he mentioned me, a hint of softness involuntarily crossed his eyes.
Sera loves me so much. I'm just asking her to do some trivial tasks, but I'm allowing her to stay by my side.
Even if she finds out, she'll be grateful and won't get angry.
The other wolves, seeing this, realized that Damien still had some feelings for me in his heart, so they didn't dare to continue stirring up trouble.
Lilith, however, was seething with jealousy, almost grinding her silver teeth. She gently caressed her barely noticeable pregnant belly and whined.
"Alpha, Sera owes my brother a life. How can she ever repay that debt by just being our caretaker?"
"Why don't you make her pay me back with her life too, hmm?"
"How do you want her to pay?" Damien asked.
Lilith smiled slyly, pointing at her womb.
"Let's make it so Sera can never have children of her own."
"If she can't bear children, she'll treat our little wolf cubs as her own!"
Lilith's smile was innocent, but her words were venomous.
Damien always spoiled her.
Hearing this, he nodded without a second thought.
"Outsider, did you get all that?"Make sure to damage her uterus after you mark her. Lilith doesn't want her to have children."
