Blythe, the Luna of the Fresh Meadows Pack, is trapped in a loveless marriage with Alpha Vito, her best friend turned husband. Bound by duty, shackled by expectations, and ignored by the very man she was forced to marry, she craves something she never had—passion.

What starts as a forbidden affair quickly turns into something deeper, something dangerous—a love that could ruin them both.
With every stolen moment, the risks grow.
The pack must never know.
Vito must never find out.
And Ceres? She can never uncover the truth.
But secrets never stay buried.
Who is Xavier Clarence?
What happens when love becomes an obsession?
And when the truth finally comes out…
Who will survive the fallout?

Chapter: Chapter 13The Glimpse of Guilt.The late afternoon sun dipped low across the Fresh Meadows Pack, bleeding gold over the rooftops, but the air was sharp and cold inside Luna's private chambers.Blythe sat stiffly at her writing desk, the velvet pen trembling slightly between her fingers. She hadn't intended to call for Xavier, yet here she was, scanning the long list of omega duties, wondering if she could "accidentally" assign him nearby.Foolish, she scolded herself.She shouldn't even be thinking about him.But the memory of his steady hands, the strength hidden behind those soft eyes, gnawed at her. Xavier hadn't just awakened her body; he'd unsettled her soul.A soft knock at the door jerked her upright."Enter," she called, breathless. She hastily smoothed the creases of her gown, trying to mask the disquiet swirling within her.It wasn't Xavier.It was Helena—one of the senior omegas—her expression carefully blank, yet her steps betrayed a hint of urgency. She carried a silver corresponde

Chapter: Chapter12The Pull of StrengthBlythe's POVThe day passed in a haze.Even as I sat through endless council meetings, listening to petitions about border disputes and trade agreements, my mind drifted back to that note.'He is not what he seems.'"Beware the wolf in sheep's clothing.The words gnawed at me, chewing through the fragile defenses I had built around my heart.Who had sent it?Why now?And most importantly... what did they mean?Xavier.The boy who saved me.The boy who kissed me like a drowning man desperate for air.What secret did he carry beneath those solemn eyes and calloused hands?The late afternoon sun bled across the horizon, smearing the sky in gold and bruised purples.I escaped the court because of "needing air" and headed toward the Pack's training fields—a secluded stretch of land bordering the forest. It was one of the few places untouched by court politics.As I neared the open grounds, the sharp ring of steel meeting steel reached my ears.Curious, I slowed my step

Chapter: Chapter 11BLYTHE'S POVThe mornings in Fresh Meadows were always crisp and scented with pine and wildflowers.Today, it all smelled like loneliness.I stood at the edge of the stone balcony of the Western Tower, arms folded tight around my body. Below, the park stretched in golden stripes of sunlight and long shadows, where life carried on without me. My gaze wandered across the training grounds below. Warriors sparred with one another, their movements a blur of muscle and precision. Omegas ran errands, heads bowed low. Life buzzed, unbothered by the storm brewing inside me.But he wasn't there.Not where he usually was.She didn't see him. Not yet.But she felt him — a gnawing ache tucked under her ribs, like a wound that refused to heal.Xavier had been avoiding me.Deliberately.Painfully.At first, I thought about how he took a longer route around the courtyard.I thought I was imagining it.The way he volunteered for assignments at the farthest corners of the park.The way he kept his hea

Chapter: CHAPTER 10Blythe's POVThe morning after the wedding dawned cold and gray, as if the heavens themselves mourned the passing of my old life.I stood before the grand mirror in my new chambers, the silk of my hastily made bridal gown whispering around my legs. I barely recognized the girl staring back at me—crowned, wedded, and yet... hollow.I pressed my palms against the cold glass, searching my reflection for answers.Had I done the right thing?Behind me, the chamber doors creaked open. I didn't have to turn to know it was Vito. His scent—clean pine and rain—filled the room before his quiet footsteps reached me."You're awake early," he said, his voice gentle, hesitant."I couldn't sleep," I murmured. "I didn't even try."A silence stretched between us, thick with everything we didn't know how to say.Then he spoke, softer this time. "Blythe... we did what we had to do. You saved the throne."I closed my eyes. Saved the throne. But at what cost?A lifetime tied to a friend, not a mate.A futu

Chapter: Chapter 9Blythe’s POV“What can I do?”My voice was urgent, desperate, as I stared at Elder Moses.He gazed at me intently, his expression heavy with meaning—a meaning I wasn’t ready for.The silence stretched between us.Then, he spoke."Find a man to marry.""What?!"I staggered back, my breath catching in my throat.Marriage?At seventeen?The thought terrified me.I was still mourning.Still trying to process my parents' deaths.And now he was telling me to—Get married?“You need to listen, dearest,” Elder Moses said, his tone firm but kind.“Your heart is clouded with grief. That is why you cannot see the danger right in front of you.”I stiffened.“The aristocrats and court officials are desperate for the throne,” he continued.“And they will do whatever it takes to remove you from the picture.”A cold chill spread through my chest.“If you wait until you turn eighteen, it will be too late.”His words hammered into my brain.“No one will wait for you to grow into your position, Princess

Chapter: Chapter 8Blythe’s POV Beta Vegas is a first-class busybody, and I despise seeing him anywhere near me. And I have a legitimate cause. He’s Vito’s closest friend—which means he knows. He knows what my spouse has been doing behind my back. How Vito has been banging omega slaves for years while coming home professing to be too exhausted to touch me. How he never once questioned our lack of closeness, since he was obtaining fulfillment elsewhere. Vegas knows. And I wouldn’t be astonished if he did the same. Maybe that’s why I’ve never liked him. Maybe that’s why his false care and intrusive inquiries make me nauseous. Not like I care if people talk about me. I mean, I once overheard Vito telling Vegas that I was not good in bed. That was years ago, back when I still cared about our marriage. Now? Now, I know Xavier thinks differently. Warmth suffused my chest at the idea of him. He doesn’t just make me feel alive—he makes me grin. My body desires his contact i
