Chapter 1: Transferred Like an Old Toy

[Can't wait to see you

After tapping send, I turned my phone face down, quietly waiting for his reply.

Since I was seventeen, I had been in a secret relationship with a guy named Knox. We made a pact to get into Hollowcrest Lycan University together.

We had never met in person. We only knew each other through a competitive werewolf game.

If anyone asked me what my ideal mate looked like, he was definitely the answer.

To meet him, I trained like crazy to lose weight, dropping from two hundred pounds down to a hundred and ten.

After slimming down, I had a slender, gorgeous body, delicate facial features, and an elegant, light wolf form.

I felt it was time.

It was finally time for us to meet.

Seven days later, freshman orientation. Our agreed-upon day to meet offline.

I picked up my phone. I didn't see a reply from him, but I saw a trending anonymous post on the campus freshman forum.

[Transferring my online girlfriend who I'm meeting soon.]

[Dated over a year. Great voice, sweet and kind, provides emotional value. DM if interested.]

Someone questioned: [If she's so great, why pass her off?]

He replied: [Looked up her info online. She's fat. I'm all about looks.]

Comments flooded in underneath:

[Was almost interested, but fat? Never mind. Pass.]

[Who wants a fat pig? Keep her yourself.]

Only one person replied: [DMed you.]

I took another look at the poster's profile picture.

It was identical to Knox's.

And the posting date was three months ago.

A chill ran through my entire body.

Three months ago, Knox really did seem to change a lot.

He suddenly became very cold, even bringing up a breakup once, saying he was tired of me.

I thought he was just bored for a bit, so I begged him for a long time before he reluctantly agreed to stay together.

Later, he suddenly registered a new Discord account, claiming his old account had too many messages, and since he was about to enter Lycan University, he wanted a fresh start.

So I followed his new account.

After changing accounts, he resumed being intimate with me again-even sweeter than before.

I thought he had just come back to his senses after getting tired. I never expected ...

The phone vibrated.

A message came from the account with the Fox Nick avatar.

"Babe, I checked the records and your period is coming up soon. I bought you raspberry ginger tea. Drink it warm in a bit."

"Looking forward to meeting you, babe. I'm a little nervous. Haha, babe, are you looking forward to it?"

I lowered my eyes, my fingers hovering over the phone, unable to move.

So, who was this person who had been chatting with me for the past three months?

And this person who was about to meet me-

Who was he?

When my best friend Tessa found me, she was hesitant.

"Did you break up with Knox?"

"What do you mean?"

She simply handed her phone to me. "See for yourself."

On the phone was a screenshot of a gaming group chat.

Someone asked Knox: [Knox, how come you haven't been playing games with your girlfriend lately?]

Knox replied: [Broke up.]

Everyone was shocked.

[No way? Weren't you guys good before? Why split all of a sudden?]

[Her voice was super cute. I originally thought she must be really pretty. Once she sent a photo, and her high school report card was exposed in the background. Number one student-very easy to look up.]

[Turns out she's a fat pig near two hundred pounds! I was totally shocked! I'm all about looks, almost threw up on the spot, so I broke up with her fast.]

someone joined in the mockery: [Lmao, no wonder her voice was so sweet. People online really can't be trusted.]

[But she practically held you in the palm of her hand! She was willing to be your dedicated healer every single match. Was she really willing to break up with you?]

Knox: [She didn't want to, so I transferred her out. She doesn't know my name anyway.]

Then he shared that thread: [Transferring my online girlfriend.]

[My god, you actually passed her off like a second-hand toy.]

[That move was crazy, Knox! Now that girl definitely won't cling to you. She must have hidden it from you on purpose. If it weren't online, how could you date someone like her for over a year? Serves her right.]

[Dating a fat pig for a whole year, Knox, aren't you scarred for life?]

Knox: [I've already set my eyes on someone else. Saw a girl during training-pretty, sweet personality too.]

Comments hype him up: [As expected of Knox, finding a real beauty so fast.]

[Only the prettiest she-wolf deserves Knox.]

[Any photos? Want to see!]

Knox sent a photo.

The girl in the photo wore a white camisole dress and an outer cardigan. Her flaxen hair was tied in a low side ponytail draped over her chest. Slim, fair-skinned, with smiling crescent eyes.

She was indeed very beautiful.

I recognized her in an instant. Elodie Snowe, the little princess of the Silvercrest Pack.

Having just entered Hollowcrest Lycan University, her background, looks, and sleek silver-grey wolf form made her a hot candidate for Moonlit Ball Queen.

Tessa was red with rage.

"Knox dated you for over a year, and just like that, he changed his mind and passed you off to a stranger! He's a total villain!"

"Besides, this Elodie isn't even as good-looking as you, and her training scores can't match yours either!"

"Nessa, send your photo out too. He'll definitely regret it!"

I lowered my head, not saying a word.

I just kept scrolling through those chat screenshots.

In the entire group, only one person had ever spoken up for me.

[Bro, if that girl really liked you ... you doing this to her is a bit too cruel.]

After a long pause, Knox replied casually:

[I'm all about looks, what can I do? Thinking about dating a fat pig like that for a year just makes me sick.]

[If she wants to blame something, she can blame her ugly face.]
