Chapter 22
I gently rested my hand on my belly, trying to feel the presence of my child.
I wanted to apologize to the baby, because for a second, I considered giving it up.
I had even considered giving up my own life.
A she-wolf who was disowned by her father and abandoned by her pack had no right to live in this world.
“That necklace.
You’re Elsie’s daughter, aren’t you?” Gale suddenly asked.
Following Gale’s gaze, I looked down at the necklace around my neck.
Since I had been running for my life, the necklace was no longer tucked underneath my shirt, but was hanging out in the open
“You knew my mother?” I asked in surprise.
When my mother was still alive, she had talked to me about everything, but she never mentioned that she had anything to do with Gale, the Alpha of Xeric Pack.
“I did.
” Gale Looked very calm.
“I was good friends with your mother, and I also know your maid, Vicky.
”
She paused, and her eyes took on a hint of sadness.
“I smell the death on you.
”
Being reminded of Vicky, my heart tightened in my chest.
Before I could explain, Gale sighed heavily.
“It seems that Vicky’s no longer with us.
Was she the one who told you to come here?”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Indeed, it was Vicky who asked me to go north with the necklace.
Only then did it dawn on me that she told me this because by going north, I could find my mother’s friend, Gale, and would have a chance of survival.
It turned out Vicky had been looking out for me until her Last breath.
“Yes… Vicky is dead… I lost her… She’ll never come back again…” I couldn’t help but burst into tears.

It turned out that the reason I made it this far wasn’t because I was lucky or capable, but because of Vicky.
Instead of comforting me, Gale looked at me with a cold expression.
“You should know something.
I drove those werewolves away not to save you.
I drove him away because I don’t like werewolves disturbing the peace at my pack.
If you want to stay, you have to join the Xeric Pack and give up everything you have in Silver Ridge Pack.
”
Sniffling, I wiped away my tears slowly and smiled bitterly.
What other choice did I have now?
The Silver Ridge Pack abandoned me.
My own father wanted to kill me.
The moment I left the Xeric Pack, I would spend a Life looking over my shoulder, wondering if my pursuers were closing in on me.
If I wanted to live, I had to accept Gale’s conditions.
“I agree,” I said with a serious expression.
“I’ll do what I have to do.
”
I had to live on-for my child and for myself.
