I’m the Alpha Female Now Chapter 07
Jacob stood in the empty room, completely dazed. He refused to believe I had left.
In his eyes, I had no family, no backing, and nowhere else to go in this world except by his side.
How could an escort team possibly come all this way just to pick me up?
Besides, for all these years, my entire world had revolved around him. I had always been the one chasing after him,
Jacob was convinced I loved him, relied on him, and that even if we fought, I was only acting out. I would never actually leave.
At that thought, he rubbed his tired temples and dragged his heavy feet toward my bedroom.
Pushing the bedroom door open, Jacob instinctively walked over to the wardrobe and pulled the doors open.
It was completely bare-not a single piece of my once tightly packed clothing remained.
Jacob’s chest tightened. A wave of panic and unease washed over him.
Refusing to accept it, he carefully searched every single corner of the room, obsessively looking for any tiny trace I might have left behind or any proof that I might still come back.
Yet no matter how much he searched, there was nothing.
Just then, his eyes caught a sealed wooden trunk tucked away in the most hidden corner of the bedroom.
The moment he opened it, he froze at once.
Inside were all the gifts he had given me over the past five years-jewelry, trinkets, and birthday presents. Not a single item was missing. Everything was carefully preserved as if it were brand new.
As he stared at the filled trunk, the words I had once spoken echoed thunderously in Jacob’s mind.
“If you ever treat me badly, I’ll leave everything behind and walk away without looking back.”
At that moment, reality finally hit him.
I wasn’t throwing a tantrum. I had truly gathered every last drop of disappointment and discarded him for good.
Jacob lightly brushed his fingertips over each gift. Suddenly, he felt all the strength drain from his body as he collapsed heavily onto the floor.
All that was left inside him was excruciating regret. However, no matter how much he repented, nothing could ever be undone.
…
By then, I had long since returned to the Darkmoon pack, which was thousands of miles away.
Here, I no longer had to act humble or swallow my pride, nor did I need to constantly compromise myself for love.
No one in the Silverfang pack ever knew that I was never a helpless orphan.
I was the sole rightful heir of the Darkmoon pack, the destined next Alpha Female, born of noble blood and meant to be revered by thousands.
Upon my return to the Darkmoon pack, I swiftly adjusted, taking full charge of pack affairs and unleashing the
natural authority of a born ruler.
Back then, for Jacob’s sake, I had hidden my sharp edges, concealed my noble identity, and willingly played the role of an ordinary healer.
Now, free from the chains of my past, I acted decisively and ruthlessly, restructuring the pack’s hierarchy and establishing a brand-new, elite healing system.
With my top-tier healing abilities and extraordinary leadership, I earned the reverence and loyalty of the entire pack in a short time.
As Dad looked at my transformed self, his eyes brimmed with relief. “I’m so glad you didn’t get trapped in love and knew when to pull yourself out. Someone as bright as you was meant to live on your own terms.”
Shortly after, Dad ordered the pack to prepare for my Alpha coronation ceremony.
On top of that, he kept his past promise, personally handpicking the finest alliance match for me.
My future mate came from noble birth, possessed immense power, and was gentle and fiercely devoted.
Dad only hoped for someone who would stand by my side for the rest of my life, protect my peace, and heal the wounds of my past.
