The Alpha's Silent Divorce (Haley and Skylar) novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 Hearing Skylar’s voice, Mark no longer cared about me. He stood up and threw out one final remark.

“Go pray in front of the photo. When you finally realize your mistake, then you can come out.”

He had his beta throw me into the dark room, the place where I was usually punished.

The wall separating us was the one that led to Mark’s bedroom.

Skylar’s coquettish voice rang out.

“Mark, I wasn’t even hurt. Why are you so harsh on Haley?”

“She scared you. That’s entirely her fault. Besides, she’s tough as nails, so no matter how long she’s locked up, she’s fine.”

The rustle of clothes sounded as she spoke in a teasing tone.

“Mark, you’ve already sealed the mate bond with Haley. What we’re doing isn’t right.”

Mark’s voice was filled with affection.

“You don’t know how much I hate that omega scent on her. Just a touch makes me feel disgusted. For all these years, my heart has only been for you. Don’t worry, I’ll never let you feel pain…”

Their flirtatious voices pierced through the cracks in the door, each word like a dagger in my heart.

I stared at the moon outside the window, thinking about the Moon Goddess. I longed to know what I had done wrong to deserve such torment.

Mark had completely forgotten about my existence.

I spent three days locked in the dark room, while he and Skylar carried on together without a care.

The pieces of shattered porcelain in my wounds had still not been removed, nor had they been treated.

In the heat of summer, there was a faint, sickening stench.

By the time Mark finally remembered me, I was exhausted and starving, having fainted multiple times.

The door opened, and a maid immediately splashed a bucket of cold water on me.

“What’s that smell? It’s disgusting!”

Several of them grabbed me with looks of disgust, dragging me out.

“Haley, I get car sick. You don’t mind if I take the front seat, do you?”

I ignored her provocation and silently opened the back door.

Mark, however, frowned and shot me a glance before saying to Skylar,

“You’re too kind-hearted, always thinking about how others feel. The front seat is reserved for you, and no one else can sit there.”

At the dinner party, I sat alone in a corner, watching Skylar loop her arm through Mark’s as they weaved through the pack members.

Around me, people cast mocking looks, but I didn’t care.

After all, for the past seven years, I had become a joke to everyone as the “Luna.”

Now, all I could hope for was Alpha Frank finally letting me go.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in my line of sight, and my heart tightened in panic.

“Haley, how dare you still show up at the pack gathering!”
