My mate, Simon Knightley, came to me with a sullen expression and said, “Zora, Laila has been in poor health since birth. She’s an Omega with the weakest healing ability. 

“One of her kidneys is failing, and she needs a transplant to survive.” 

He pulled out a Mate Bond Breaking Agreement to dissolve our mate bond. After hesitating for a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, “Your kidney is the best match for Laila. But if you refuse to donate your kidney, you’ll have to sign this agreement to break our mate bond. 

“Laila doesn’t have much time left… And she wants to experience the marking ceremony before she dies. After talking to your parents, they agreed that I should be the one to do it. 

“I love you, Zora. We’re only doing this to make sure Laila doesn’t die with regrets. 

“Once she’s gone, we’ll get back together. Okay?” 

I stared at the agreement in Simon’s hands. Ever since Laila Thorne’s kidney failure, everyone in my family had been expecting me to donate my kidney to her. 

But what they didn’t know was—I only had one kidney left. 

When they found out I refused to donate, they were utterly disappointed. They kept saying how ungrateful I was. 

“Zora, your sister’s dying. All she needs is your kidney to survive. How can you just stand by and watch her die?” 

My parents wouldn’t listen to my explanation. Instead, they kicked me out. 

“An ingrate like you doesn’t deserve to be part of this family. If you won’t save Laila, then get out!” 

And now, even my mate was forcing me to either donate the kidney or he’d mark Laila instead. 

But I was dying anyway. At this point, what difference would it make? 

“I agree,” I said airily. 

Stunned, Simon jerked his head up. “Really? That’s amazing! Laila has a chance now!” 

He tore the agreement and hurried me to the healing hut.
