His Secret Affair Unleashed The Alpha's Fury
Chapter 3
After a long, exhausting afternoon, Adelyn’s wound inevitably reopened, forcing her to stay in the pack’s healing center for ten days. She had initially planned a trip during the lull, but her enthusiasm waned as the pain and fatigue set in.
During those ten days, Clover, her former packmate and close friend, visited her several times. Clover had been with her from the start, witnessing Adelyn and Miles transition from being in love to establishing their mate bond, and now, to the brink of rejection. Each time Clover visited, she would launch into a tirade against Miles, as if venting her frustration was the only way to cope.
“Let it go, Clover, it’s behind us now,” Adelyn would say, though deep down, the sadness lingered. She and Miles had been in love for four years and mated for one. She never imagined they would end up here, and so quickly.
Her phone screen was frozen on a bank transfer she had made to Miles, and his words echoed in her mind. In that moment, she felt utterly foolish.
Back during her training years, her parents, Phillip and Nova, respected elders of their pack, were keen on toughening her character. They not only restricted her access to pack resources but also forbade her from flaunting their family’s status. When they found out she had found her mate, they insisted she keep it discreet, even going so far as to demand a formal agreement before the marking ceremony. They openly expressed their doubts about Miles more than once. They were brutally honest; they feared a lower-ranked Gamma would drag her down.
This led to a major argument between them, as Adelyn was determined to prove to her parents that Miles genuinely cared for her. Adelyn and Miles had established their mate bond in their second year of training. After completing her studies, Miles chose to skip further advancement and jumped into a role within the pack’s trade division. He wanted to prove himself quickly. Adelyn didn’t see anything wrong with this; in fact, she fully supported him. He was a trainee from a modest background, and his mother, Julieta, had worked tirelessly to secure his position within the pack. During their training years, he was always driven by his goals and ambitions. This drive is what drew Adelyn to him.
Miles was always proud and had a strong sense of dignity. Within three years of completing his training, he clawed his way up to a Gamma position, earning a respectable share of the pack’s resources. After they established their bond, Julieta urged Adelyn to step back from her responsibilities and focus on starting a family. She advised that having pups while young would make it easier to maintain her strength and status. But Adelyn never anticipated reaching the point of rejection.
Her initial agreement to Julieta’s suggestion and her current lack of pups became tools for Miles to manipulate her, his dominance and arrogance growing with each passing day.
