Older Isn't Always Better

Arealis City's elite wolf packs have a secret—the head of the Ferguson family, Evan Ferguson, worships his wife but also has affairs with other women.

He treats them like princesses and satisfies all their desires. He only has one rule—they must never allow his wife to learn about the affairs.

After all, she was the one who'd nursed him for three years after his family had betrayed him. She'd even gone on the run with him for 48 days, almost giving her life to restore him to his rightful place in his family.

Evan's newest lover is bolder than everyone else, though. She brazenly taunts me, emboldened by his feelings for her.

It was at that moment I decided to leave Evan.

When I was packing my stuff, an ancient emblem with a simple design fell to the side of my feet.

That was the emblem of the Ferguson family—an item that the pack leader offered to his wife.

Evan had offered me this emblem when we were dating. I believed it was time to return the emblem to its rightful owner.

However, the emblem went missing after I found an exquisite box for it. Instead, a young boy sat in the place of that emblem.

With one look, I could tell that it was 17-year-old Evan. He gazed at me tenderly with his clear blue eyes. "Why are you leaving me, even when I love you so much?"
