Family's Spoiling Kills: Reborn, I Seek Wild Revenge novel Chapter 3

After the neighbor left, my father kicked me again. "Do you know what you've done?"

Normally, after such a beating, I would never admit fault, but this time, trembling like a scared rabbit, I quickly surrendered. "I'm sorry, Dad. I shouldn't have said that about Freya."

Still unsatisfied, he asked, "Are you still planning to report this?"

"No, I won't. I won't," I whispered, the pain in my body and heart overwhelming.

After repeated apologies, his anger finally subsided. I even knelt before my mother and Freya, begging for their forgiveness.

Mom coldly scoffed, "Enough. Go make dinner. I'm starving."

I obediently put on my apron and walked to the kitchen.

Just then, Freya's phone rang. She checked the screen and let out an excited scream.

"She's dead! Vivian's dead! I need to go to the hospital to comfort Alpha Derek!"

Her voice was manic with joy as she ran off to change, put on makeup, and slip into high heels before rushing out the door.

Worried for her safety, my parents grabbed the car keys and left with her.

The moment they left, I packed my bags, ready to leave this house forever.

Outside, I ran into a neighbor who noticed the bruises on my face. He frowned. "Your parents beat you again?"

His gaze flicked to the suitcase in my hand, and he clicked his tongue. "Good. Leave here. If you stay, you'll die."

I thanked him and walked away, hailing a taxi.

The radio played breaking news: Luna Vivian had died in a sudden rogue attack, and the entire pack was drowning in grief…

Alpha Derek had placed a ten-million-dollar bounty on the rogue pack responsible.

The driver sighed, his eyes flashing with sorrow and anger. "Luna Vivian was a good woman. She never flaunted her position as Luna, always taking on dangerous tasks herself… Once those rogues are found, we'll make them pay dearly."

I nodded in agreement.

The driver continued, "I heard Alpha Derek used to be cold-blooded and bloodthirsty. Luna kept him in check. Now she's gone... who knows where the pack will go from here?"

A heavy weight settled in my chest as I didn't know what to say.

Freya… she would get what she deserved.

In the following days, the pack was divided by two major news stories—one about Alpha Derek offering a huge reward for information on Luna's death, and the other about my sister's so-called heroic actions.

A video of her in white, covered in blood, kneeling as she desperately tried to save Vivian went viral. It was shared by millions, calling her a goddess.

Another video showed her crying in the hospital, saying to reporters, "My heart is broken, I couldn't save my teacher. I wasn't enough."

Behind her, Alpha Derek watched with a complicated expression.

She proudly shared the video in our family group chat.

"Did you guys see the way Derek looked at me? I can assure you he's in love with me!"

Every day after work, I saw Beta Cody, his face weary from constant investigation, checking over the clues again and again.

Two days later, Freya shared another chat screenshot in the family group.

Derek had invited her and my parents to his estate to show gratitude.

She @'d me.

"Fiona, do you see my charm now? This isn't just a visit—it's meeting the family! I'm about to be the new lady of Silver Moon Pack!"

I didn't respond.

She was so focused on seducing Derek that she didn't notice the oddities around her.

The news of Luna Vivian's death had disappeared from the internet.

The police had stopped investigating.

Even Beta Cody had stopped looking into the case.

This wasn't a thank-you dinner.

It was a death trap.

They had finally led themselves down a road to destruction.
