The Moonmarked
TAEYANG SHIN
I was never meant to come here. The Alpha Court Academy is a place for heirs, leaders – not broken things like me. I keep my head down, lock my wolf away, and pretend I don’t feel the pull of fate tightening around my throat. Then I meet Ronan Blackwood. The connection is instant, undeniable… and I know what it means. But instead of claiming me, Ronan hates me. Bullies me. And yet, even when his words cut, his eyes burn. I wasn’t looking for a mate. Especially not one destined to ruin me.
RONAN BLACKWOOD
I’ve spent my life training to inherit a title I never asked for. Son of a dying Alpha. Heir to a bloodline soaked in expectation and control. I don’t have time for distractions – especially not a delicate, sharp-tongued outsider like Tae Yang Shin. The moment I see him, something inside me twists. A dangerous, primal instinct I refuse to name. I push him away, torment him, but the bond coils tighter with every cruel word. I can’t want him. Can’t need him. But fate is cruel — and it’s about to take away our choice.
In a world where bonds mean power, desire is weakness, and fate never asks for permission… two souls on opposite sides of pain and pride are bound to collide.

Chapter: CHAPTER 5TAE“Fucking Ronan.”I’m ripped out of the pages of the book I’m reading and glance up as Dorian slides into the seat in front of me. He’s scowling and staring behind him. And like the idiot that I am, I follow his line of sight and my eyes meet Ronan’s. I look away immediately.After what happened between us a week ago, I’ve been avoiding him, and coincidentally, he’s kept his eyes away from me too. But now, it meant that the other alpha heirs saw me as fair game. I really didn’t enjoy hiding out in the restrooms constantly.“That man has a death wish. He told my mom – “ He looks around the dining hall and leans into the table, whispering. “He told my mom to push the mating ceremony. Again. I swear, my sister is about to have her heart eaten by a shark.”Dorian takes an angry bite of his bread and turns to look back at Ronan, muttering profanities under his breath.Dorian is the son of Winona Cruz – President Cardenas' sister and the Alpha of the Legend pack, where Alpha court is loc

Chapter: CHAPTER 4TAE“Fuck.”I jerk my hand back just before the parrot beaks my skin. I almost laugh at how silly it is that Ronan owns a pet, and a parrot at that. My phone chimes again, reminding me that it’s been twenty minutes since I snuck into Ronan’s room.I listened to what Hyun said, to leave my need for revenge to him. I stopped looking into the Blackwood pack. I even got over my hatred for Hermes Ashford and his family – future Lycan King once his genocidal uncle finally kicked the bucket. But I wasn’t about to let Ronan destroy President Cardenas, just because I’d kissed him.“If I was Ronan, where would I stash my secrets?” My eyes rove eagerly across his space, moving about and getting a feel of the space. I needed to get any dirt on Ronan if I was to convince him to let his grudge with the president go.Ronan has his thing spread around like someone who been military trained – everything facing his exit routes, the windows and door. I check his bathroom and frown when I see that his th

Chapter: CHAPTER 3RONANI’m going to fucking kill him.Damon Cardenas knows exactly what he’s doing. He has so much to gain from messing with me that he’s going after the one thing I can’t help orbiting around.“Ronan.”Tae’s breathy call pulls my attention away from Damon's smug grin. Somehow, Damon has gotten to Tae before me. It’s what we planned – the entire court of the western territory chiefs – but still. Having Damon get a piece of Tae before I’ve wrapped my head around what I’m to do isn’t as ‘nonchalant' as I’d expected my feelings to be.“Get out of my office, Blackwood.”“So you can continue pawing your student.” I step into the office, shutting the door. The sound causes Tae to jerk, pulling away from Damon.“I don’t think the board would like hearing that their forty year old appointed president got together with his student who clearly doesn’t know better.”Damon bristles at my threat. It’s an empty threat – he knows it, but he’s also aware that this would derail his plans with Tae.“You

Chapter: CHAPTER 2TAE“Come into my office, Tae Yung.”I look up as President Cardenas strides past me, heading straight for his office. He seems to be in a terrible mood and whatever the reason, I don’t want to be in his space when his anger peaks. Despite him always looking out for me and basically being my saviour from Ronan, he was known to have a short fuse.“Sir.” I slink deeper into the office, warily watching as he takes a huge gulp of the whiskey in his tumbler. His hand runs easily over the decanter before he lifts it and fills his glass again.“Ronan Blackwood.”I blink a bit, confused as to why he’s discussing Ronan with me. I’ve not exactly thought of Ronan since the last time he’d cornered me in the alley.“I’ve seen him target you. I heard the reports, your former roommate, everyone, and I know you’re aware that Ronan is behind everything.”My eyes are spread wide open, curious as to where this conversation is leading. Ronan being the cause of my distress all these years isn’t exactly ne

Chapter: CHAPTER 1TAEMy pack believed that we were special. Hand picked by the Goddess and made protectors. They call it Hwansu in our tongue – Phantom beast. That was before they were attacked and shredded by marauders.If my pack saw me right now, cowering and hiding all because I thought I saw my tormentor, they’ll toast me for shaming our legacy. All because of Ronan fucking Blackwood.“Sunny?”I flinch at the mocking tone in Ronan’ voice and press my back against the wall, praying that the waste bin is large enough to hide my small frame.I’m not lucky enough as I see Ronan’s boots step into my line of sight. I slowly lift my head, my hazel eyes clashing with his light green ones. There it is again! Those darn flutters whenever I’m around him. I just want it to end.“Hiding from me?” His smirk is cruel, making his whole face appear menacing.“No. I was - stomach ache.”I stand as I say this, not wanting to be at a disadvantage around him. He’s never hit me before – in the two years that I’ve been
