Why Did Jack Unfollow Mark

Five years ago, Wen Mian was branded with the stigma of climbing into her adoptive brother's bed, a finger pointed at her spine. Everyone said she was an ingrate, unable to appreciate the new life the Pei Family had given her, and instead repaying kindness with enmity. Only she knew that this so-called favor was nothing but an unfathomably deep hell on earth. After five years of grinding hardship, Wen Mian had almost died abroad. When she came back, she was a changed woman, swearing to make every member of the Pei Family pay. She had thought this was a desperate dead-end gambit. But unexpectedly, the adoptive brother who had sent her away was like an annoying piece of gum stuck to her shoe, following her everywhere. She killed, he handed her the knife, she sought revenge, he silenced the witnesses. Finally, Wen Mian couldn't help it— "What exactly do you want?" And that man, who had bided his time for so many years, finally showed his true colors, "Can't you see? I've been doing it all for you."

In her previous life, Lina Riley harbored an unrequited love for the Fifth Princess, Victoria Ashwood. Lina sacrificed everything for her—securing her place on the throne, protecting her borders, and losing her arm and sight in the process. Yet, her loyalty was repaid with a goblet of poisoned wine and the execution of her entire family. Victoria despised her, accusing Lina of cruelty and of orchestrating her elder sister’s death, deeming her unworthy of love. When the poison took effect, Lina closed her eyes in despair, only to awaken back in the moment they first met. On that fateful day, Lina had stumbled upon Victoria being beaten by palace maids, an encounter that set everything in motion. This time, Lina turned away, choosing a different path, but a faint fragrance of plum blossoms lured her in. One reckless night led to a moment of despair when she awoke to find the coldly beautiful face of her bedmate—Lucille Everard, the Princess Regent. Lucille, while outwardly uninterested in court affairs, was notorious for her swift and decisive actions that had seen emperors replaced with alarming frequency. Compared to Lucille’s power, Lina’s past dealings with Victoria seemed like mere child's play. As Lucille stirred awake, Lina's nerves were frayed. “Given the circumstances, Your Highness, what do you think of me now?” she asked, resigned to her fate. To her surprise, Lucille chuckled softly. “I think you’re wonderful.” Stunned, Lina could only manage a confused “Huh?” From that moment, everything veered off course. Lucille's palace soon bloomed with roses—Lina’s favorite. Amidst the swaying blossoms, the resolute Princess Regent would gently take Lina’s hand, her once-frigid gaze warm and tender. “My dear Lina, you are the finest woman in the world.” In her new life, Lina often dreamed. She dreamt of someone leaving a bouquet of roses at her grave, their robes trailing the light fragrance of plum blossoms. They sipped wine with a wry smile, murmuring, “Silly girl, I avenged you.” Victoria Ashwood was reborn too. She hadn’t expected that killing Lina would provoke her aunt’s ruthless revenge. Determined to avoid a similar fate, she resolved to feign affection for Lina, even if it took a lifetime. At a palace banquet, Victoria was taken aback by Lina’s beauty. Draped in fine silks, Lina was a dazzling sight, so different from the weathered woman Victoria remembered. Drawn to her, Victoria was about to approach when she noticed Lucille at Lina’s side, gently wiping her lips with a soft smile. “Take it slow,” Lucille murmured. Lina paused, then chuckled as she adjusted a strand of Lucille’s hair. Victoria’s heart twisted in fury. When her desperate attempts to win Lina back failed, she demanded, “Why won’t you love me?” Lina sneered. “Show some respect, Fifth Princess. You should address me as Aunt. Besides, your hypocrisy and cold-heartedness make you unworthy of love.” Years ago, a young Lucille Everard encountered a lost girl in the palace gardens. The girl declared that Lucille was beautiful and promised to marry her one day. Thirteen years later, a fateful misunderstanding during a bout of poisoning entwined their paths. What began as teasing quickly turned Lucille from a hunter into prey, helplessly ensnared by the woman she never forgot. Tags: 1.

Blurb Liana has lived in exile for years because of a birthmark, known as “The Mark of the Forsaken,” which her pack believes brings a terrible curse. But when Ryker, an Alpha in need of help, finds her, Liana has a chance to prove that her mark might be the key to saving his pack. As the two work together, Liana uncovers secrets about her heritage—and a power within her that she never knew she possessed. But with her heart and her life on the line, Liana must make an impossible choice: embrace the power that could save everyone at the cost of losing her fated mate or risk everything to find another way. Exposition The story begins by introducing Liana’s life in isolation, with flashbacks revealing how her birthmark led her pack to fear her, forcing her into exile. Rumors about “The Mark” swirl among the packs, and Liana’s life of loneliness and survival has shaped her into a wary and hardened soul. Inciting Incident Liana’s quiet life is shattered when Ryker, the Alpha of a nearby pack, arrives at her door, seeking her help. His pack has been plagued by an unbreakable curse, and after hearing legends of “The Mark,” he believes that Liana may be his only hope. Initially reluctant, Liana agrees, seeing a chance to finally be accepted and find purpose. Rising Action As Liana and Ryker work together to break the curse, they grow close, their fated mate bond intensifying their connection. Liana begins to unlock strange powers tied to her mark, which allow her to hold sway over the supernatural forces behind the curse. However, she discovers dark truths about her family’s past and the curse’s origins, which reveal that her ancestors created the curse to protect against a greater evil. Meanwhile, Ryker’s initial secret intentions to use Liana as a possible sacrifice to break the curse come to light. Liana struggles to trust him, and her conflicting emotions create tension between them, making their bond even more precarious. Climax Liana faces a devastating choice: use her powers to fully defeat the enemy causing the curse, which could save Ryker’s pack but may cost him his life, or attempt a riskier, untested path that could save everyone without sacrifice. At the height of her internal struggle, Liana must confront the part of herself that longs for acceptance and the part that fears her power. Denouement In the end, Liana’s choice has lasting consequences on her relationship with Ryker, her understanding of her power, and her sense of belonging. Whether or not she finds a way to save him and the pack, Liana finally understands the truth about her heritage and accepts herself fully, stepping into her role not as a curse, but as a force of hope for her people.
