Riley’s POV

“How many times have y

on Peads

you made a scene in the one month since you were released from prison?” Karl’s voice rang sharply. through the hospital room, cold and full of judgment. “The whole family has been spoiling you, tolerating you, loving you- yet you keep pushing us away, again and again.”

His words were like sharp needles, pricking at my ears.

“Why did Mom inject you with the suppressant, huh? Wasn’t it because you attackeil Scarlett at the banquet like a feral roppan You shoved her in front of the whole Pack and disgraced our family. Then you had the audacity to strike her again after we got home.”

“You were in the wrong, Riley. Don’t tell me a mother doesn’t have the right to discipline her own daughter”

I sat there, staring at him in silence. My mouth curled into a slow, bitter smile, but my eyes remained icy. What was the point in arguing? In this house–this pack–they never cared about the truth. Scarlett was always the saint in their eyes. The victim. The golden child.

And me? I was the rabid white wolf no one wanted to claim.

So I said nothing.

But someone outside the room couldn’t bear it an

The door burst open, and Mia stormed in. Her usually kind face was tight with fury, her eyes bloodshot, breath unsteady.

She shoved past Zara and Kael, heading straight for me. The insulated container in her hands slammed down on the bedside table with a sharp thud.)

“I’ve had enough,” she growled. “Enough of this cruelty.”

My chest clenched as I watched her trembling hands and the quiver in her voice. I knew what was coming–Mia never raised her voice. Not unless it truly mattered.

“Last night, if it weren’t for that kind gentleman who helped carry her out of the estate, your daughter would’ve died from infection and blood loss. She hasn’t eaten a bite, hasn’t sipped a drop of water since waking. And what do you do? You show up here to yell at her? To scold her for fighting back?”

She looked like she might shatter from sheer rage.

“What kind of Alpha family treats their blood like this?”

Kaci opened his mouth, but she cut him off

“Don’t you dare. You think the whole Pack loves her? That you’ve tolerated her? What a joke.”

“She was tortured in prison for five years. I saw the scars on her back with my own eyes. Not one of you visited her. Not once.. And the last time your father beat her with a belt until she bled, who stopped him? No one.”

She turned to Zara, voice rising with righteous fury. “You forced your own daughter to cut off a finger to repay a debt she never owed! And you still stand there and say it was for her own good?”

Zara’s face had turned ashen, her lips parted in silent horror.

Even Karl was stunned, looking at me like I was a stranger.

“Every time she’s wronged, you defend Scarlett without asking a single question,” Mia continued. “You scold Riley, punish her, humiliate her. And now you dare to say it’s out of love)”

I couldn’t speak My throat was tight.

I reached out and gently touched Mia’s hand. “It’s okay,” I whispered. “They’re not worth your anger

Because they weren i

Zara finally seemed to come back to herself. Her voice was shaky as she tried to explain, “Mia… we didn’t mean to hurt her. Riley is just… so impulsive, so disobedient. We’re trying to help her-

“Help her?” Mia laughed, and the sound was raw, “Look at her now. Is this what ‘help‘ looks like to you?”

“You never loved her. Zara. At least admit that. You didn’t raise her–you never bonded with her–and maybe that’s understandable. But not loving her doesn’t give you the right to destroy her.”

I gave her nothing.

Not a flicker of emotion.

Instead, I turned my eyes to Mia–the only one who had ever protected me. And I looked at her like she was my mother.

Because, in every way that mattered, she was

And Zara? She meant nothing to me anymore.

That was when she truly started to panic..

I slapped hers away. “Legally, I have nothing to do with the Vale family.”

The words landed like a thunderclap. Zara froze, eyes wide with disbelief.

Kael’s face contorted with anger. “Riley, must you say such cruel, pointless things?”

I turned to him, calm as ever. “Pointless? I don’t think you understand. The Pack registry–the official family ledger–has never listed my name. Isn’t that right, Zara?”

His gaze snapped to her. “Mother? That’s not true.. right? She came back eight years ago. Her name should’ve been added. long ago.

Zara’s lips trembled. Her hands fluttered uselessly at her sides,

She couldn’t deny it.

She wouldn’t dare lie.

Karl’s

s jaw clenched as the truth hit him like a hammer. “You never added her to the Pack–record? She’s not even registered

as one of us?”

Zara crumbled, sobbing into her hands. “I’m sorry, Riley… I’m so sorry”

I stared at her, unmoved.

Sorry didn’t mean anything when the betrayal was carved into your bones.

And I’d spent my whole life learning to bleed quietly.
