I closed the Advanced Pharmacology textbook in my hands, my fingertips tapping lightly on its
spine. That woman, now demoted to Omega, should be lying in the infirmary recovering.
“Aubrey, be careful. | think she might be up to something!” The female classmate who called out to
After the family recognition banquet, word spread through the Shadowmoon Pack about how
Mariana had stolen credit for saving my life. Students at Ocean University also learned they had
wrongly blamedbefore. Now, they either avoidedout of guilt-afraid I'd use my identity as
the alpha’s sister to take revenge-or they bent over backwards to please me, hoping to be my
friend.
But | don’t need any of that.
1 glanced at her. “Thanks, | know.”
1 was about to leave when she quickly caught up, walking besidewith an easy grin. “Aubrey, my
name’s Tammy Birkin! Can | be your friend?”
My steps faltered. The word “friend” immediately remindedof Mariana. She had fooledso badly before,
but I'm no longer that naive little girl. | know how to judge people now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis Tammy looked simple and straightforward, her bright eyes fixed onwithout any hint of malice.
“Friend?” | tilted my tone slightly upward.
“Yes, yes! Friend!” Tammy looked atwith open anticipation.
“Sorry, | don’t need one.” My lips curved faintly. Leaving her with a cool smile, | turned and walked away.
By the t| reached the school square, it was already packed with werewolf students-because Mariana was on
the ground.
She really was a clever woman. She knew that without making a tic sacrifice now, there would be no way
to salvage her situation.
Head lowered, she seemed deaf to the whispers and pointing fingers around her. Her long white dress spread out
across the ground, her long curls hanging down, making her look fragile and pitiful.
In front of her was a sign with large, bold words: “Aubrey, I'm apologizing to you. Please letgo! Ask the alpha
to restore my beta rank!”
“Who's this Aubrey, to push someone this far?” one uninformed werewolf asked.
“Poor thing-demoted to omega and now forced to grovel in public. That's worse than killing her outright.”
Someone else who knew the story chimed in from the side.
“Aubrey’s the alpha’s former omega fiancée-now his sister! She's using her position to bully others...”
It wasn’t hard to guess who had sent them to twist the story like that.

A few onlookers sneered. “The moment she gets power, she humiliates people like this? That omega
Aubrey must be incredibly petty.”
“Exactly. We’re all women-why make things so hard for another woman? Just for one mistake, she
stripped her of her beta status, demoted her to omega, and now makes her grovel in the square?
That’s too much!”
“Right? Who doesn’t make mistakes? Holding onto it like this is just cruel.”
By the tI arrived, that was all | heard-Mariana milking her victim act for all it was worth. Add
her pretty face to the mix, and she was stirring up plenty of protective instincts. In the end, despite
her being the one in the wrong, somehow I was the one who should feel guilty for not forgiving her?
Amusing. Even her apology is a trap.
“Aubrey’s here!” someone shouted. The crowd immediately parted to make way, and | walked
forward without hurry.
The werewolf students’ sharp, judgmental stares amused me. Most of them were barely twenty-one
or twenty-two-too young to have seen the real world. Their thoughts were still idealistic, the kind
that made it easy to criticize when it wasn’t their problem.
But it didn’t matter. I’ve never cared what others think of me. All I care about is whether I'm
satisfied.
So | looked Mariana in the face, studying her with a playful smile, and asked,
“You were looking for me?”
