Chapter 1


    FREYA’S P.O.V


    The world around me was a blur, my limbs ached and pain had be my silentpanion,


    always waiting and lurking just beyond the surface. My body felt like lead and my head felt like


    someone was doing construction work inside of it. I couldn’t believe that this was what my life had


    turned to- a meaningless void of pain and sorrow.


    The only reason for this pain was that my mate betrayed our mate bond to getid with another she-


    wolf, and this was the third time this week. Some days, I wondered what they had that I didn’t that


    made him keep going back to them. In the earlier days of our marriage, I even tried to be more like


    them but it never worked.


    I had been married to Alpha Jaxon for three years and things had only gotten worse from there. I


    was treated like trash by him and his mistresses alike. I wanted to go back so many times but a part


    of me thought that I could change him.


    Maybe it was the initial touch and warmth he brought to me that convinced me that there had to be


    a kind gentleman under that hard exterior and that was why despite the pain coursing through my


    body, I still managed to set up a beautiful candlelit dinner.


    When I first met my mate, I thought he was the most handsome man in the world. I was arranged to


    be mated to another- one more cruel than I could ever imagine. He was the Alpha of myst pack


    and he had treated me like trash.


    Jaxon arrived at the pack for a meeting but one look at him and I knew that he was my mate. He


    was my savior. We met in deserted hallways and those first few days were like bliss. I knew


    instantly that I wanted to be with him


    I didn’t leave a note to tell my family where I was going, I didn’t care about them. I just wanted to be


    free but little did I know that I was walking into a trap. His kindness was all a facade. He waited until


    we had gotten married before he showed me his true side.


    But I believed today was different, I had some good news that I hoped would change his affection


    towards me. A few days ago, I felt nauseous and I had taken myself to the doctor only to find out


    that I was pregnant. One thing Jaxon always wanted was an heir and if he knew I was to give him


    one then he would have no other choice but to love me. The thought alone was enough to keep me


    moving as I lit the candles and waited.


    I waited for the first hour but he didn’t show and I began to worry. In our three years of marriage, he


    had never failed toe back, even if it was to remind me that I belonged to him and to fuck me.


    “He wille,” I tried to assure myself. “He alwayses to me at night, especially on our


    anniversary.”


    I didn’t have my wolf yet so I could not mind link him. I decided to try calling but it went straight to


    voicemail. I began to worry and I had decided to go and find him myself when I felt pain in my chest


    like I had been punched. I knew what that pain was because I had experienced it many times


    before. Tears gathered in my eyes as I realized the situation at hand.


    Not only was he with one of his mistresses, he chose to do it on our wedding anniversary. I couldn’t


    stop the tears that spilled from my eyes as sobs wracked through me. The pain never ceased and I


    had to drag myself over to the bed. I was used to the pain but for him to do it today of all days was


    downright insulting.


    I tried to call him once more hoping that I was mistaken and the pain was something else. This time,


    he picked up and there was no mistaking the moaning I could hear on the other side of the call. The


    tears fell even harder.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    “Where are you?” I choked out and he swore.


    “Fuck off, I’m busy,” he hung up without another word and heart wrenching sobs ran through me.


    I thought I was used to his indifference and cruelty, and I thought the pain of betrayal was bearable,


    until today, when I truly realized I couldn''t continue to lie to myself.


    I trailed my hands down and wrapped them around my stomach as I thought about the child that


    would be brought into this. My baby did not deserve this. I had willingly walked into this life but they


    had not and they deserved more than a father who would disrespect their mother like this.


    Despite the tears in my eyes, I grabbed the first bag I could see and began shoving things inside of


    it. I was not going to stay here any longer. I had tried everything possible under the sun and I could


    now see that there was nothing I could do to make him love me. Jaxon Eaton was incapable of love


    and it was about time that i saw that.


    I waited until the pain ceased after an hour. I knew the guards schedule by heart seeing as I would


    take food to them. I knew that Jaxon would be training and the guards would be taking a rotation.


    Once the coast was clear, I took off from the pce. I didn’t look back once, I knew there was


    nothing to be missed.


    I halted by the pack border though, I stared at it for much longer than necessary and cast a


    backwards nce towards the pce that was standing tall.


    “Goodbye, Jaxon Eaton.”
