Chapter 8 On the way home , Alpha Lucass phone wouldnt stop ringing .
I glanced at the screen .
The caller ID read just two letters : Claire .
Feigning curiosity , I asked , Who keeps calling ? Arent you going to answer ? What if its urgent ? At the red light Alpha Lucas seized the Chapter 8 + 5 Points At the red light , Alpha Lucas seized the moment to power off his phone .
He pinched my cheek and said with a teasing smile , What could be more urgent than driving my luna home ? I stared at the black screen in his hand and muttered playfully , Lucas , you didnt even come with me to try on my wedding dress .
What if you stand me up on the wedding day too ? Suddenly , the car braked sharply .
I lurched forward and hit Alpha Lucass arm .
He immediately shielded me and asked if I was okay , then held my hand tightly , sighing .
Honey , last time I didnt come because of work .
I just didnt want you to worry .
Tomorrow , Ill go with you to pick the dress , okay ? I forced myself to nod and smile .
Chapter 8 + 5 Points But Alpha Lucas , tomorrow isnt for me its for Claire .
Thatll be your big day with her .
As for the return of Eclipse packs real daughter , my father had already arranged an official statement .
It would say he felt guilty for neglecting his firstborn and , upon learning of her love for Alpha Lucas , his younger daughter had voluntarily stepped aside .
Eclipse Packhouse would also transfer 2 % of its shares into Claires name effective immediately .
Tomorrow , the financial news channels would break the story .
The public would rejoice that the Silver Claw Pack and Eclipse pack were finally becoming one .
The wedding would be held within a week .

Thats why Claire kept calling Alpha Lucas- she could barely contain her excitement .
Once Alpha Lucass car disappeared down Chapter 8 + 5 Points the street , I grabbed my suitcase and hurried downstairs .
In the living room , I saw my father his hair completely white overnight and my mother , teary eyed and pale .
I opened my arms and embraced them both .
Mom clutched my hand tightly , her voice trembling with worry .
Josephine … I saw the report in your room .
I gently patted her back , comforting her .
Ill handle it , Mom .
You and Dad take care of yourselves .
If anything happens , just call me .
Ill come back with a degree and something to show for it .
My nose burned .
A wave of grief rose in my chest .
Afraid my tears would make her feel even worse , I quickly grabbed my things and got in the car Chapter 8 + 5 Points At the end of the street , I changed the route .
Their little love nest was in the same direction as what used to be my wedding house .
I had the driver stop by the roadside .
From the car window , I saw Claire rush toward Alpha Lucas the moment he stepped out .
She was smiling ear to ear , no doubt sharing todays great news .
Under the warm yellow glow of the streetlights , I couldnt make out Alpha Lucass expression .
I only saw the two of them locked in a tight embrace .

The dull ache in my chest twisted into a stabbing pain , sharp and relentless .
My hands began to tremble uncontrollably .
Lowering my head , I swallowed the bitterness threatening to spill from my eyes .
I took a deep breath and said quietly , Chapter 8 Driver , turn around .
+ 5 Points One last visit to the home that held two years of my memories .
I packed up everything that belonged to me .
Wiped away every trace I had left behind .
Before leaving , I placed two handwritten pages of my love diary on the living room table .
Alpha Lucas this is the final countdown .
I watched with my own eyes as you shattered the dream you built for me , piece by piece .
You showed me exactly how deeply you could hurt me .
And I uncovered something painfully ironic .
The boy who saved me when I was five … was you .
Chapter 8 + 5 Points But fate twisted everything : you mistook Claire for that girl .
She stole my necklace , my photo .
Also , you said that the one who didnt deserve happiness was Claire , not me , the real eldest daughter of Eclipse pack .
My phone was filled with messages from professors and seniors .
> Josephine , thank goodness you didnt let me down .
I hope your studies go well may everything be smooth from here .
> You finally came to your senses .

+ 5 Points Flipping through the thick book filled with our sweet , loving memories , I couldnt help but sigh .
Five whole years of youth just like that , wasted .
No future .
I left the love diary on the main table .
Tucked between its pages : the crumpled medical report and an old childhood photo .
Then I powered off my phone and went straight to the airport .
-Everything unfolded exactly as I expected .
Just as the news report aired , my flight landed and I headed straight to the hospital .
Chapter 8 + 5 Points Lying on the operating table , a sharp , drilling pain shot up from my uterus , bringing tears to my eyes .
I had refused anesthesia .
I needed to feel it .
I needed to carve away the last of my weakness with my own hands .
I accept that I loved the wrong person .
And Ill never walk that road again .
Alpha Lucas , I wonder what kind of expression you made … when you finally learned the truth .
I bet it was a sight to see .
At last- You and I are truly , completely over .
