Reborn Duchess,I Destroyed My Cheating Husband and His MistressChapter 1

After my mate consolidated the secondary bloodline succession, he took his brother's former mate and her two pups to the capital to build a new life.

My daughter and I survived on scraps and foraged roots outside pack territory, waiting for him in that freezing den for five long years.

The only news that ever came was that he'd inherited the Thornwood Alpha title.

I carried my daughter a thousand miles to find him, and the guards at the gate beat us with wooden clubs like we were feral rogues.

"Showing up at the Alpha's territory claiming to be pack? You must be tired of living. Don't you know how our Luna deals with stray she-wolves who come sniffing around?"

I lay in a heap of my own blood. "...Luna?"

When I lifted my head, I could just make out Edith Ashvale in the distance, dressed in a Luna's finery, her two pups raised as the young Alpha heir and she-wolf of the house.

Edith greeted us with a warm smile and set out a plate of pastries. They were laced with wolfsbane.

My daughter was starving. She wolfed down a piece and dropped dead on the spot.
