Lilith pov
My thoughts were scattered.
My gaze was distant.
My chest felt hollow.
For a long moment, silence filled the air in the car until—
“Lilith.”
Dravena’s voice slid through my mind.

For a brief moment, her image shed before me, and I saw her standing, her eyes fixed on me as she continued.
“Let me tell you a little secret about the Moon Goddess.”
Her voice carried a strange calmness.
“The goddess everyone loves… everyone respects. The goddess everyone relies on. The one they believe to be the most powerful being that exists.”
She paused slightly.
“But even she has a weakness.”
My eyes lowered slightly as I listened quietly, not saying a word.
“She has something she cannot fight against,” Dravena continued.
“And that… is fate.”
Her voice echoed softly through my mind.
“Once a human is born, their fate is sealed from that very moment. Their life and their death are already written in stone but it is not written by the Moon Goddess. It is written by fate itself. Fate is a force that must run its course, Lilith. A force that not even gods can truly defy.”
Her voice softened slightly as she continued.
“That means no one can change what has already been written.”
Silence lingered between us for a moment before she spoke again, her tone quieter this time.
“It was your mother’s fate to die from the very beginning no matter what you did… no matter how desperately you tried, she would still have died…You already knew that, didn’t you?”
Her gaze seemed to pierce straight through me.
“And yet… you still held on. You clung to that tiny thread of hope because you needed something to keep you moving forward. A reason to keep breathing.”

She paused again.
Then her voice grew softer, but the words cut far deeper.
“Lilith… have you ever realized something?”
Her golden eyes seemed to darken slightly.

“You have never truly loved yourself… not once. You lived for your father, then you lived for your mother, then you lived to endure humiliation for people who never deserved you.”
“You have spent your entire life living for everyone else… but never for yourself.”
And then she asked softly-
“Lilith… have you ever once asked yourself what you truly want from life?”
At her words, I froze.
It felt as if all the air had been knocked out of my lungs.
I could barely breathe.
What I wanted from life…
If someone had asked me that question two days ago, my answer would have been simple.
I would have said I wanted my mother to wake up.
So we could live together again.
But now…
Now I didn’t have an answer.
Now… I couldn’t respond.
And as I sat there in a daze, my eyes trembling slightly, I suddenly heard Abraham speak.
“Beta, we have arrived.”
Somewhere in the middle of my thoughts, the car had already stopped.
Abraham had stepped out and opened the door for me.
But even then, I didn’t move.
I simply stared at him nkly for a few seconds.
Then…
My gaze slowly moved past him.
And the moment I saw where we were, my heart skipped violently in my chest.
This ce…
10:55 am P
It was familiar.
Without another thought, I stepped out of the car, my heart suddenly racing as I looked around me.
And almost immediately, my eyes began to sting.
Tears gathered before I could stop them.
This ce…
It was a small waterfall hidden deep within the forest.
Clear water cascaded gently down smooth rocks, the soft sound of it filling the air.
Wildflowers grew everywhere around it, soft blues, yellows, and white petals swaying gently in the breeze.
It was peaceful.
Beautiful.
And almost no one came here.
But I remembered it.
Because this was the ce my father used to bring us.
Before his death.
Back when everything in my life had still been… happy.
So many memories were buried here.
Memories ofughter.
Memories of warm afternoons.
Memories of my parents smiling.
For a moment, I simply stood there in shock, my chest tightening painfully as those memories flooded back.
Then-
Voices reached my ears.
Familiar voices.
“Do you think she will like it? I’m worried she wouldn’t.”
Ss.
My head snapped toward the direction of the voice.
And that was when I saw them.
The three Alphas were standing together not far from the waterfall.

0:55 am Pppp.
Arge pic nket had been spread across the grass before them, filled with different tes of food.
And as I stared at them, my breath hitched slightly.
None of them were wearing their usual sharp suits.
Their clothes were simpler today.
Yet despite that….
Their powerful auras still filled the entire space.

“I’m not sure,” ude said, scratching the back of his neck. “But we had to do something. We couldn’t just let her stay locked in her room all day.”
He nced sideways at Lucien.
“Plus, this was Lucien’s idea. So if it doesn’t work out, we can just me him.”
Lucien didn’t respond.
He simply grunted softly and looked away, his expression as cold as ever.
But I saw it.
Beneath those cold eyes…
There was worry.
And as I stood there staring at the three of them in stunned silence, Abraham spoke quietly behind me.
“Last night, the Alphas asked The for a ce that would make you happy.”
I inhaled sharply and turned to look at him.
Abraham was watching the three men with a small smile on his face.
Following his gaze, I saw ude smirking proudly as he bragged to his brothers that his cooking would impress me fa more than theirs.
Abraham continued softly.
“You should have seen everyone’s faces when the Alphas entered the kitchen. The three men that everyone fears… the ones people call ruthless and cursed… were standing there wearing aprons while the kitchen staff tried to teach them how to
cook.”
As he spoke, something stirred faintly inside my chest.
Something warm.
Something unfamiliar.
Abraham paused for a moment before turning his gaze back to me.
“The Alphas have changed, Beta Lilith,” he said quietly.
10:55 am Pppp.
“I have been with them since before they took over and I can say this with certainty.”
His eyes softened slightly.
“You changed them.”
“Alpha Ss now knows how to feel emotions and allow them to show.”
“Alpha ude no longer hides everything behind a careless smile.”
“And Alpha Lucien…”
A faint chuckle escaped him.
“He now seems almost warm.”
Abraham looked back toward the three men standing beside the pic nket.
“And they truly love you. They truly care about you.”
At his words, I slowly turned my head back toward them.
Toward the three men standing beneath the soft sunlight near the waterfall.
For a moment, I simply stared at them.
And before I could stop it-
The first tear fell.
Then the second.
My vision blurred as more tears followed, quietly sliding down my cheeks.
But this time…
They didn’t feel as heavy..
Because in that moment, I finally understood the answer to Dravena’s question.
What did I want from life?
I now knew my answer.
I wanted to be loved.
I wanted to be happy,
I wanted to be cared for.
I wanted to live for myself.
I wanted…to be with them.
The three terrifying men who had bought me for my body, these men…I wanted to love them.

And as I stood there crying softly, the three men in the distance suddenly noticed.
ude was the first to react.
“Hey-hey, why is she crying?!” he said in rm, nearly dropping the te in his hands.
Ss immediately frowned and took a step forward.
“Did something happen?”
Lucien didn’t say anything.
But he had already started walking toward me.
His gaze sharp with concern.
And as they quickly approached me, my legs suddenly buckled.
Before I realized it, I had sunk to the ground.
I wrapped my arms around my knees and cried as the tears continued to fall.
But for the first time in a long time…
They weren’t tears of despair.
The Alphas immediately froze just inches away from me when they saw this, staring down at me in confusion.
Then, almost at the exact same time, a look of realization crossed their faces.
They thought I was crying because I didn’t like what they had done.
ude was the first to panic.
He quickly lifted his hand and pointed straight at Lucien.
“This was his idea” he said without hesitation.
Lucien didn’t spare him a nce.
Ss brows furrowed.,
But before any of them could say anything else…
“I think I love you…”
My voice was barely more than a whisper.
So soft it should have been swallowed by the sound of the waterfall.
Yet all three of them heard it.
They froze instantly.
Slowly, I lifted my tear-stained face to look at them.

My eyes were still wet, my cheeks damp, but as our gazes met…
A small smile slowly formed on my lips.
It was faint.
Fragile.
But real.
And the moment they saw it, the three men before me
wentpletely still.
Stunned.
“Am I allowed to love you…Alphas?”
I whispered again softly.
Because at that moment, what I truly wanted was to be with these men.
