The Quiet Betrayal

I was an Omega, but my partner was an Alpha. Even though I didn’t have a wolf of my own, I could hear the voice of his.

Through his wolf, I learned many of his little secrets. For example, he was secretly preparing a grand bonding ceremony. In three days, he was planning to propose, and I pretended not to know.

However, that night, Harry Tarrington brought his childhood sweetheart back home. I was just about to ask what was going on when I heard his wolf growl furiously,

“Isn’t the ceremony in three days meant for Lianne? Why is it now for Chloe?”

So the ceremony I wasn’t supposed to know about… was never meant for me at all.

I kept pretending I didn’t know. Quietly, I gave up my room, my most precious belongings, and even Harris himself. Then, I bought a ticket to the South.

Carrying the twins in my belly, I left Fangtooth Pack forever on the very day they held their bonding ceremony.

When Harry Tarrington brought Chloe Finley home, he only said one thing to me.

“Chloe just came back and doesn’t have a place to stay. I told her she could stay here for a few days.”

I froze for a moment. Although it was supposed to be temporary, this was the first time Harry had ever brought a friend home, and it was a woman.

Just as I was about to speak, I suddenly heard the confused voice of his wolf in my head.

“Harry, why are you lying to Lianne? You clearly plan for Chloe to live here long-term. And earlier outside, those wolves called Chloe your Luna. Why didn’t you deny it?”

I didn’t know what Harry said back to him, but the wolf suddenly let out a sharp cry.

“What about the bonding ceremony in three days? Weren’t you planning to propose to Lianne? Why is it Chloe now?”

As if lightning had struck me, my body went stiff, my mind blank.

Even though I was just an Omega without a wolf, I had a secret—I could hear the voice of Harry’s wolf and had never told anyone about it before. With that ability, I had always gotten along well with Harry, who was usually so silent and reserved.

His wolf was lively and talkative. Through its conversations with Harry, I learned what he liked, what he wanted, and how he truly felt. It was from his wolf that I learned Harry loved me. He had even secretly prepared a grand bonding ceremony.

I had overheard every detail of the proposal, the date, and the surprise. However, I pretended to know nothing, keeping the joy inside me, waiting patiently for that day to come.

Now, his wolf was saying that the ceremony in three days wasn’t meant for me anymore?

I steadied myself, forcing my voice not to tremble, and carefully asked, “If it’s just a few days, should I prepare a guest room for her?”

Harry went silent
