Ever since my mate and I became fated partners, his wolf had been deeply obsessed with mine. Every night, he would lose himself in me, keeping me tangled beneath him until dawn. But everything changed after I gave birth to our first child. Little by little, he lost interest in my body. Worse, he began rejecting my scent, as if it disgusted him. I asked him countless times what was wrong, but he never gave me a real answer. He would only brush me off and tell me to seek help from his father—the Supreme Alpha of the pack and the highest-ranking healer. Humiliated beyond words, I finally forced myself to stand before his father. Before I could even speak, though, he seemed to understand everything. His gaze softened as he looked at me, and shame burned through my chest as I lowered my head. But then, to my shock, he started walking toward me. My wolf let out a trembling whimper. And instinctively, I squeezed my eyes shut.
