Sorry, Alpha. I Don’t Love You Anymore

Every year when the first snow falls, Kane, the Alpha of Moonstone Pack, would "lose his memory" and revert to the time when he hated Irene the most. He would smash her medicine cabinets, burn her prescriptions, and lock her in the basement reeking of silver powder, all because he was convinced that Irene had caused Lia, the female lead, to lose her sense of smell. To save him, Irene brewed medicine with her own blood for five years, weakening the wolf spirit within him at the cost of her own lifespan. She believed that if she could just make it to the fifth year, he would finally take her as his Luna. But then she overheard it outside the council hall—the so-called memory loss had been a lie from the very beginning.​ Kane had been punishing her with a clear mind for five full years, all to get revenge for Lia. Even crueler still, when Irene's only brother Noah was gravely ill, Kane—just to appease Lia—forced Irene to confess her guilt in public, delaying the life-saving medicine and causing Noah's death.​ When the five-year contract ended, the witch Maeve took away all of Irene's love for Kane. She turned her back on him and fled to the Northern Werewolf Kingdom, where she saved Alpha King(Eli) and, with the royal court's apothecary, managed to revive her brother Noah. At the royal court trial, Irene used evidence to expose Lia's lies—her faked loss of smell, her theft of the prescriptions, and her instigation of the grave desecration—making all who had wronged her pay the price. Lia was stripped of her pack status and sent to the border labor camps. Kane was suspended from duty, lost control over the medicinal fields, and later truly began to suffer from memory fragmentation, forever trapped in the snowy night of searching for Irene. Irene, in turn, became the Northern Kingdom's Chief Apothecary and accepted Eli's proposal of marriage—one founded on equality and respect—truly stepping out of that first snow forever.
