Chapter 6

Before I could speak, the person next to me couldn't hold back any longer.

Garvin let out a derisive snort, a ghost of a smile playing on his lips.

"So what if Gareth is dead? You still have me, don't you? What's the rush?"

He raised an eyebrow, his eyes glinting with mocking amusement.

"Besides, Sylvia is my mate. You want to marry her? Not a chance!"

"You… how are you back?" Gareth's father froze, his gaze fixed for a few seconds before he guiltily looked away.

Garvin was an illegitimate son.

After the Graymane family took him in, they never truly acknowledged his status.

He and his birth mother were constantly oppressed.

The Graymanes forced them to eat spoiled leftovers and drink cat urine, making their lives a living hell.

Later, they even drove his mother to her death.

Garvin went berserk that night. The Graymane family, seeing no other option, sent him abroad to fend for himself.
