Chapter 31
“It’s a very important social occasion at this time of year when the wolves throw a grand party that only the Alpha and Luna of each pack can attend,” Leo stated.
I hit it on the head.
You should probably get Aria. She’s going to be your Luna soon.”
Leo seemed a little annoyed.
“We haven’t completely broken MATE ties. My Luna is still you, not Aria.”
I shook my head. “I’m not obliged to play ‘Model Alpha and Luna‘ with you anymore,
Leo, on the other end of the line, was clearly dismayed by my defiance.
I hung up.
It was the first time I had ever rejected Leo.
Leo.”
Once upon a time I’d always responded to whatever he said, and I could hear that he was angry at me for refusing, but I felt a sense of excitement and freedom that I’d never felt
before.
E
Rolin came out and gently hugged me.
I didn’t know how much he had heard, but he remained sweet and didn’t ask anything, just
comforted me.
“Do you need help?” he asked.
I shook
my
head. “No, thank you. You’ve helped me enough.”
After saying goodbye to Rolin, I left the piano store and headed to a jewelry store with the intention of selling my wedding ring.
The act felt like closing a chapter, a necessary step to reclaim my life and move forward.

The jeweler examined the ring with growing admiration.
“This is a truly exquisite piece,” he declared, his voice filled with genuine awe.
As he held it up, the other staff gathered around, their eyes widening at its beauty.
Their surprised glances shifted to me, unspoken questions hanging in the air about why I was parting with such a treasure.
Are you sure you want to sell your wedding ring?” one of them asked, repeatedly confirming
I nodded. “Yes, I’m sure.”
The clerks were quick to estimate the value, and I was surprised to find that the ring was far more expensive than I had imagined.
Collecting the money, I realized that Leo had been very generous with his money.
All the gifts and jewelry he gave me were top of the range and expensive.
The only thing he never gave me was love.
With the
money, I rented a house near the piano shop, ready to start a new life.
That night, unable to sleep, I turned on my lamp and began working on a new song at my
desk.
My wolf, Lena, appeared at my side to keep me company.
She was a strong black wolf with emerald green eyes, always kind and gentle by my side.
She disappeared briefly for a while when she sensed that Leo was beginning to get distracted in this marriage, and then she never appeared to Leo again.
For this reason, Leo’s wolf Zane and Leo had a big fight, and he had been asking Leo to go look for Lena, but Leo thought that I had deliberately hidden Lena away, and that this was just my little trick to get him to return to his family.

As I finished the last note, I began to hum the tune I had just written.

“Is this a tune you wrote yourself? I’m glad you’re back to writing songs again.” Surprised, Lena said, “It’s very nice, I really like the tune.”
I recently signed up for an account on the video site and am going to try to run it. This song is going to be my first, and I’m going to spend this next period of time organizing all of my previous compositions.
I have a feeling that the track will get a good response.
arly the next morning, I went to the piano shop and rented a room from Rolin.
I played the piece I had composed the night before.
The melody flowed effortlessly, When I played the last note, Rolin applauded.
“Elizabeth, you’re a genius,” he said, clearly shaken and sincere. “You will be a success.”
“Thank you.” I asked him to record a video for me and post it to my online account.
After posting it, I quickly forgot about it because I had a lot of things to do to start my new
life.
A few days after, I was about to go shopping for some necessities, I saw a familiar car
outside my
flat
Leo was smoking a cigarette by the side of the car.
I wasn’t sure if he was just passing by or if he was here for me, but I sure as hell didn’t want to see him.
He saw me and came striding towards me.
He was as handsome as ever.
Without asking, he took my hand and led me to the car, which held an elaborate gift box.
I was puzzled. “What is this?” I asked.
“Open it,” he said, his expression unreadable.

I opened the box to find an exquisite evening gown and a matching set of jewelry inside.
“Why are you giving me this?” I asked, confused.
He looked deep into my eyes. “I still need you, Elizabeth. I need you to attend the party with
me.”
