“You're giving him too much credit! Alpha Henry has power and influence-changing his mind is
nothing for someone like him. And that Mariana isn’t sinnocent flower either. Everyone in the
Shadowmoon Pack says she’s the one who actually deserves him. You think that’s a coincidence?”
Mateo sounded irritated. He yanked the blanket up and tried to mufflewith it.
I shoved it away and stubbornly asked again, “Do you know what kind of injury Alpha Henry has?”
“1 don’t know!”
Mateo’s scowl deepened, and his tone got harsher.
“The Miguel family isn’t receiving visitors. No one gets to see your Alpha Henry except Mariana.
He bit hard on her name. “But if he’s not even going to the hospital, it can’t be that serious.”
But the more he spoke, the more my brow furrowed. If Alpha Henry’s condition was being kept quiet
even from someone as well-connected as Mateo, and if he’d gone so far as to dismiss all the
servants in the house...
The answer was obvious.
He had a dangerous illness-likely something contagious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd that whole tic performance he put on for me? It only made sense if this illness wasn’t curable.
He had returned suddenly from the Stella Pack, and the biggest outbreak there recently had been T-Flu- but that
had already been handled. That left just one possibility: highly dangerous, highly contagious, and without a cure.
| wanted to laugh, but I couldn't. In the previous timeline, Alpha Henry lived a charmed life. He never got
infected. How could he have it now? And the K-Virus didn’t even appear until after the Alpha King’s death!
Could it be... my existence had triggered a butterfly effect?
The thought joltedupright in bed.
Since my
rebirth, I'd never felt this lost, | had battled the K-Virus for years in my last life-and now, in this life, Alpha Henry
was the one suffering because of me?
“...Mateo, if someone was trapped because of you-and you were the only person in the world who could save
them-would you do it?”
Mateo paused, then said, “Depends on if they're worth it.”
His lips curled into a cold, indifférent smile.
“Even if he got stuck because of you, it's not like you asked him to. He made his own choice. One gives, one
takes.

And if saving him comes with a lot of trouble, you'd have to weigh his value.”
I nodded. “Exactly. Value.”

I had been clouded before-worn down by Alpha Henry’s relentless pursuit. I'd let myself falter, let
my feelings slip. But now that those fragile emotions had been shattered, my mind was sharper, my
clarity stronger than ever.
I hadn’t dared to reveal my true abilities so far, because | had no one backing me, and Ella’s
condition was still unstable. If | made a move too soon, | could end up suffering the sfate as
last time. Mateo alone couldn’t protectfrom the southern werewolf factions behind Bailey.
But Alpha Henry, as the leader of the northern wolves... was a solid choice.
I knew how to extend his life. After all, the K-Virus serum in my past life had been developed from
my blood-it took the research institute three years to make it. So if there was anyone in this world
who could save him, it was me.
But this time, | wouldn’t save him for free. And my heart wouldn’t waver again.
Third-Person POV
Miguel family estate.
Alpha Henry’s parents, Sean and Adelyn, rushed back the moment they heard he was critically ill.
Thankfully, by the tthey arrived, Alpha Henry had stabilized. But everyone in the Miguel family
still looked grim.
Because this brush with death had cost him dearly-he had originally been expected to live another
month.
“I’m sorry, sir, ma’am. The alpha... may have less than a week left,” said Xavier, the wolf medic, his
face full of anguish.
