                    I had a secret.
Before I turned thirty, every thousand times I made love to a man, I can shed a single tear that crystallizes into a pearl.
Each pearl grants one wish for the man.
My Alpha mate Thorne Nightfang was insatiable desire. Day and night, we had sex over and over again and he still couldn't get enough of me.
Over two years, I produced two precious pearls.
For the first one, he wished for unbreakable strength and health.
The second, he wished to become the richest man in the werewolf realm.
Finally, he got what he wanted and became richer than even the Alpha king.
But Thorne still remained obsessed with me—so much so that even during territorial business trip, he'd bring me along, unable to bear a night separation.
The day before my thirtieth birthday, his female Beta Amaris Emberhowl posted something on her Instagram:
"Luna howls so loud every night. I'm so jealous... I want a turn too~"
Thorne was furious. On the spot, he stripped Amaris’s Beta rank in the pack.
That night, he claimed me with desperate intensity, over and over, until I produced the third pearl.
This time, he wished we would have both a son and a daughter and remain bonded for life.
But just a month later, Amaris was pregnant.
Thorne knelt before me, eyes red, begging me to break our mate bond.
"Liora, the pack healer says you're torn up badly—can't handle my size right now... She’s just your stand-in, nothing more."
“She’s innocent, terrified others will call her a homewrecker, and worse the pup will be labeled a bastard. I can’t just abandon them. Please.”
"I already wished to be bonded with you for life. I'll temporarily reject our bond just until the pup's born. Then we'll rebond, I promise."
I smiled serenely and agreed.
He doesn't know that once he broke the mate bond with me, every wish he made through those pearls will unravel.
But I never expected Thorne couldn't wait a single day.
He impatiently pushed me toward the car, "The bond-breaking deal’s inside. Just sign it on the way.”
I steadied my emotions. "I'm not available today. The Moon Artisans’ Blessing Awards—I’m an awardee and can’t miss it.”
He froze for a moment, as if suddenly remembering the event.
Amaris in the car burst into tears, making a dramatic show of reaching for the door handle. "Luna, are you regret it?"
"It's alright, Alpha. Luna might not be willing to step aside, but I do—I don't make things harder for you.”
"I'll... I’ll get rid of the pup and give you both my blessing."
Such a pathetic performance, yet Thorne believed every word.
He gently stroked Amaris's hair, then turned to me, his eyes full of venom.
"Liora, I hate how calculating you’ve become.”
"It's just some stupid award. If you want recognition so badly, I'll buy you ten next year."
I looked up at him, watching the man before me overlap with the boy who once promised in my memor, "When you win The Moon Artisans’ Blessing Awards, I'll light up the entire pack with fireworks to celebrate."
I swallowed the bitter ache in my throat. "You know how important this award means to me. All I’m asking is just one more day.”
Amaris blinked innocently. "Today's Friday, Luna. Don't you know the Pack Registry Office is closed on weekends? You won’t be able to break the mate bond then.”
"Liora, if you don't want to break the mate bond, just say so. Alpha Thorne, go chase dreams with her. Don't worry about the pup and me."
“A bastard like that is a mistake. I’ll end it myself.”
With that, she covered her face and turned to leave, only to dramatically collapse after her very first step.
Thorne rushed toward her, but Amaris shoved him away.
Tears streamed down her face freely. "This must be the Moon Goddess punishing me for being a homewrecker."
"Alpha Thorne, I was wrong! Please, just let me go!"
Thorne's face filled with heartbreak as he pulled her into his arms, gently wiping away her tears.
"The one who deserves punishment... is someone else entirely."
