Doctor Luna: The Alpha’s Forsaken Bride
“I have no idea why we don’t feel that attraction that mates do for now, but you will be my luna, whether the moon goddess likes it or not.”
Fire flashes in her eyes. “Don’t be ridiculous, Kai. What about me? Don’t you care if I want to be your luna?”
“Oh I don't! Because I know you would. Resisting me is impossible, Valerie Manchester. Don’t bother trying to.”
A human Luna of the BloodCrest Pack, Valerie was despised by many. She lived through it- until a cruel lie shattered her world. She was branded a traitor who poisoned her father-in-law. Pregnant and powerless, she was cast out of the pack and left to be ravaged by rogues.
But fate has other plans. With her child, she rose from her troubles. Not as a Luna, but as a self made doctor. When a deadly virus threatens the pack that exiled her, she returns as their only hope.
Now face to face with the man who cast her aside and suddenly wants her back, she must make a decision to help or let him drown.
But there’s someone else who will do everything to make Valerie his. Fierce and loyal, ready to burn the world for her.

Chapter: 134: ETHAN’S LORECelesteI have allowed myself to turn soft for Sebastian. This isn’t me. The weak woman who would let him walk over her without making a complaint is nothing like me. How dare he try to turn me over to the council? Like everything we have experienced together never happened.This matter involves more than just Bloodcrest. Every pack in the region has a say in any issue that concerns the creation of the Moonblight antidote. I knew all that before choosing to sneak into the lab, which was why I made sure precautions were put in place to prevent them slamming a serious crime on my head. But my precautions weren’t enough. Best case scenario, it will end with a banishment. I’ll be cast out of the region, never to be seen again. Worst case scenario, I’ll be killed. It will most likely be the wodst case scenario. Sebastian knows this, yet he has no intention to cover up for me.“Think about it,” I sneer, the corners of my lips curved up in a dangerous smile. “That mother of yours who you lo

Chapter: 133: MISTAKES TO REGRET.“It’s about the Luna, and the lab infiltration. I think she is responsible, Alpha.”I scoff, looking at Celeste. “What made you come to that conclusion?”She was identified in the CCTV footage. Worse, she wasn’t alone. I haven’t identified her accomplice, but she had one. They snuck into the lab together.”My hands clench. What has Celeste done? How am I supposed to tell the alpha council that the person who was behind the infiltration is my own Luna? They already think I am the worst member on the council, and this isn’t helping things in anyway.”I push bike down my throat. “I have heard everything you said, Seven. I will do my own investigation and get back to you.”“How do you want me to proceed?”“Continue with the findings. Dig till you find out what she took. Keep it under wraps for now, and report to only me.”“Yes, Alpha.”The call ends. I place the device down on my laps, my eyes on Celeste. Judging by the panic forming in her eyes, she has figured out the truth that she has

Chapter: 132: LOSERValerieAn hour later, I am physically ready to go to the lab. Mireya had given me another herb, one to increase my strength and keep me intact. Kai holds me up, his hand around my waist as we move into the building. “Valerie,” Sebastian calls as soon as he sees me. “I didn’t expect you to come.”The place is scanty. The alphas have left, fortunately. I am in no mood to listen to them bicker at each other right now. “I have to inspect my work.”“We’re investigating,” he says. “There’s no way the person behind this didn’t leave any traces. The council has agreed to produce a talented sheriff from each pack. We are also combing through footages on every street to check for clues.”“I appreciate your effort. Can I go in now?”He hesitates, his gaze dropping to Kai’s arm in my waist. His Adam’s apple bobs as he swallows. I can almost smell his rage at what he’s seeing.“You can. But Alpha Kai,” he turns to him. “We need to talk.”Kai frowns, his grip on me tightening. “We have nothing t

Chapter: 131: MONOPOLYValerie. Kai holds me back just as I try to go to the door. “What’s the emergency?” He asks. “If Mireya is aware of this, she wouldn’t make you go out to them.”“I need to know.”Oh god! I had been so certain that I wanted to just relax today. Who knew that a single sentence would be enough to ruin everything. There’s no way in hell that I’ll be able rest and be calm if something really happened at the lab. It could be a bio security breach, one that will end up dangerous for everyone. “Who is there?” I yell out. Anna’s voice is quite louder as she replies. “It’s me, doctor Manchester. It’s Anna.”Of course. Mireya had ordered the staff of the hospital to keep mute about the fact that Kai and I have been discharged. Only Anna knows the apartment unit we’re in. I get off the bed and grab a robe, shrugging it on. “Kai, let me speak to her.”He gives me a nod. In thirty seconds, I have made my way over the door, the robe tie knotted securely around my waist. Anna is panting, hands on

Chapter: 130: SEX AND KISSESValerie The area the studio apartment is situated in is eerily quiet, and we are taking advantage of that. The window curtains are drawn, the city lights bleeding through tiny spaces and falling carelessly on the tiles. My fever is fast returning. Just when I thought I had a chance at a quick recovery, things are getting a lot worse. I’m still buzzing from the fever that knocked me down, but it’s fading, replaced by something hotter. Need. Kai’s been hovering since he carried me back from the worst of it, his worry turning into this protective heat that balances us out just like Mireya wanted. I’m wearing his black t-shirt, the hem brushing my thighs, no bra, just soft cotton panties underneath. He’s clad in gray sweatpants that hang low on his hips and a worn white tank that shows off the hard lines of his chest and shoulders. We start in the kitchenette. I’m reaching for a glass of water when Kai steps up behind me, his body pressing against my back. His hands settle on my hips,

Who knows just how bad it will get later. I want to shut Aryan’s mouth up. Tell him that to keep whatever bad news it is for later, but it’s too late.“If you have something to say concerning the antidote, say it,” Alpha Luca says. Nothing will surprise us anymore. At this point, we know the Alpha of Bloodcrest isn't to be trusted at all.”Aryan looks at me, silently asking if I give him the go ahead to say the words. The dumbhead. Couldn' t he have asked for a signal before yelling and alerting everyone?“Alpha Sebastian!” his voice cuts through the lingering murmurs, sharp and breathy, like he’s trying to catch his breath after running for so long. He strides forward without waiting for permission, boots echoing sharply on the stone floor. “Bad news. The main lab… It’s been broken into," of he stutters.“What lab?”“The same one doctor Mancheste

A Scandalous Marriage Deal With Mr Manchester
“One year, Miss Vaughn. Once it’s over, take the fall and leave.”
I flash him a smile. “I’m glad we understand each other.”
“I will draft up a new contract with your terms included.” That said, he closes the distance between us, his hand falling to my waist. A jolt of electricity shoots through my body at the contact. I back away, a protest building on my tongue.
“There are reporters in the hall. Smile, Mrs Manchester. The performance starts now.”
In the city of Raven Heights, hierarchy is the order of the day. Selene is the youngest member of the Vaughn family. Cast aside by her grandfather who hates her, she has endured sixteen years of abuse from her family.
A scandal breaks out when her cousin, Vivienne, has a one night stand with Rain Manchester- the illegitimate son of the most influential family in Raven heights. She’s made to cover up for Vivienne and marry Rain in her place. To make matters worse, she discovers Vivienne in bed with her boyfriend. Furious, she agrees to the marriage for revenge, only to be plunged into a world of hatred.
Rain despises her. He’s in love with someone else — Ava, and a marriage to Selene has ruined his chances of being with her. They agree to stay married for a year, with him swearing never to fall for her.
But can his resolve withstand the test of time? Or the sharp mouthed wife he has married? Can they stay a year as a married couple without falling in love?

Chapter: 025: REJECT THE MERGER~~Selene~~“I know you had a long day yesterday and deserve some rest, Selene, but this breakfast is a long standing tradition of the Manchester family,” Roman hums the next morning. Rain and I are in his villa, seated around the table with Ava and David. After what happened at the banquet yesterday, I expected him to be awkward around me, but he seems incredibly happy.“Every new bride is to have breakfast with the family after the wedding. I am more than happy to have you here.”“Thank you, Mr Man–” At his stern expression, I correct myself. “Thank you, Roman."He nods, evidently pleased. I fiddle with the food in my absence. Across me, David scrolls through his phone, looking like he wants to be anywhere but here. Ava, on the other hand, keeps scowling in my direction. I am not blind to the hostile energy between her and Rain this morning. They must have gotten into a big fight.As for Rain, he seems really pale today. “You aren’t eating, Selene," Roman observes. “Is the food not

Chapter: 024: JUST GOT MARRIED~~Selene~~“GET AWAY FROM THERE IMMEDIATELY, SELENE,” Kiara's scream tears through the room. I look up instinctively, and I freeze in place.A chandelier dangles above me, the massive crystal structure swaying violently. A chain snaps, loud enough for everyone to hear. For seconds, my body forgets its function. I can’t move or breathe or think.Everything happens too fast. Rain’s strong arm wraps around me, his hard body slamming into mine. In one swift movement, he sweeps me off my feet with a force that sends us crashing across the room. The chandelier falls just as I am removed from beneath it, glass shards flying in all directions. My ears rings violently. Goose bumps sprout on my skin at the magnitude of the crash.It was heavy enough to crush me underneath. If Rain had been a second too late, I'd be dead by now, my body shattered into pieces all over the room. Rain pulls away from me, scanning my frame.“Are you okay?” he asks, his voice laced with concern. His eyes dance in th

Chapter: 023: POISON TASTERIn ten minutes, I walk into the private room that had been booked for the banquet. The guests are only members of the two families, as the patriarchs wanted it to be a private reception. David is nowhere to be found. It’s just Roman and I against the dozen people from the Vaughn family. I scan the table, from Langston Vaughn, to his three children, children in law and grandchildren in attendance. Selene is the only one without her parents. It’s no news that they have never treated her well, and I wonder if they hate her to the point of wanting to kill her.I think back to the car accident and her eating disorder. Is someone in this room responsible for those incidents?“Congratulations on your wedding,” Langston announces, raising his glass in a toast to me as I sink into the seat beside Selene. “Our families have become one, and I can only hope that it will always be peaceful like this.”Roman studies Langston for a second before agreeing. “I will make sure your granddaughter is we

Chapter: 022: DISCREPANCIES022~~Rain~~“I just want some money. If I have even one percent of your shares, it will help a lot. I gave them to you, why can’t I take them back?” Ethan Anderson's words ring in my head over and over again, and I keep trying to make sense of it. According to what Vivienne told me, Selene maintained her affair even while engaged to me. That information was proven to be false when Tony reported that Selene’s relationship ended before our engagement.Now Ethan wants her shares. If he was the innocent jilted lover whom he has been painted to be, then why does he want her shares? There are too many indiscrepancies to this case, and the deeper I think, the more Selene Vaughn seems innocent. What if everything I thought about my new bride was wrong?I glance at her frail frame beside me. The encounter with her ex boyfriend had shaken her up pretty badly. My blood boils just thinking about it. If I didn't arrive when I did, how much would he have hurt her?I shove the thought to the back

Chapter: 021: ENTITLEMENT~~Selene~~I didn’t expect to see Ethan here. The thought that he’d show up had crossed my mind, but I didn't dwell on it because I thought he’d have the basic decency to stay away. But here he is, ambushing me outside the door of my hotel suite. I scan the corridor, there's no one else. If anyone sees us alone like this, they’d get the wrong idea.“How dare you!” The words leave my throat in a strained tone. Ethan arches a brow, slipping his phone into his pocket. “How dare you show your face at my wedding?”“Our family was sent an invitation, just like every conglomerate family in—”“I don’t give a damn about that. Even if you were personally invited by Roman Manchester, you should have declined. That is the sensible thing to do.”My blood boils. My hand is clenched around the knob, prepared to slam the door in his face if he tries something funny. Ethan raises his hands in mock surrender.“You left me with no choice, Selene. You weren’t picking my calls.”“Can you give me one tangib

Chapter: 020: THE KISS~~Selene~~I could say no.One word. That’s all it would take to call off this sham, to dash my grandfather’s hope and let Rain Manchester know that I never intended to marry him in the first place. I could turn around and walk out of this hall, leave grandfather to deal with the consequences. Leave Rain Manchester and his beautiful ex-girl for each other.The temptation is way too much for me. My gaze is fixed on the bracelet sitting on his wrist, and it only causes my chest to tighten a lot more. “Miss Vaughn,” Rain whispers. “People are watching. Focus.”I blink, taking a deep breath to quell the anger running inside me. What if Ava wears a wedding dress to my wedding? It means nothing. This event is all for show anyway. I can just ignore it just like I have been enduring the other things I have had to endure.But how long will I keep enduring and ignoring till I snap?The priest looks at me, repeating the vows. “Do you, Selene Vaughn, take Rain Manchester to be your lawfully wed

What the hell was she planning now?“I’ll make sure this doesn't die down,” she continued. “I will do all I can to bring you down. You’ll regret ever messing with me.”“What is your problem, Lina? Haven’t you done enough? What else do you want from me?”“I want you gone,” she yelled maniacally. “I want you to suffer double of what I suffered. You have such a peaceful life. You don’t deserve to, Arya. You deserve the worst things on earth?”“Who the hell is that?” my mom snapped. She snatched the phone from me and placed it against her ear, but it was pointless, as lina already ended the call. With a deep scowl, she demanded. “Who on earth was that?”“It was nothing, mom,” I replied hastily, getting off the bed. “I need to go now."“Where do you think you’re going?” my dad thundered.

Lucien isn’’t the right person for the job. I will do better—” his voice broke. He bit his lips, tears rushing to his eyes. “You already made a promise to me. You can’t just go back on it now.”“Edgar Sinclair, what promise did I make?”“I did everything!” Edgar took a few steps back. “I tried to make you see me for the real me, but you don’t care. What on earth do you want me to do?”“I thought you did all those things because you care about my daughter.“I do care about her,” he yelled. “I know I made mistakes in the past, but I love her.”“Edgar,” my father whined. “You have to understand that you’re still on probation.

Chapter: ~HUNDRED-TWELVE: POWER OF ATTORNEY~Arya~“Yes sir, I think that’s the perfect way to go too,” Edgar's eager voice was the first I heard in my sleep. My eyes fluttered open. I stared at the blank ceiling, listening to their conversation subconsciously. I had no idea how or why I was in a hospital all of a sudden, but I was. And I had every member of my family with me.Regina and my mom were hurdled together, staying quiet as Edgar and my father spoke. I trailed my gaze to them. My father’s brows were pulled together, deep in thought. Edgar had his back to me, but I could tell that he was deeply engrossed in whatever they were talking about by his little mannerisms that gave him away.“Arya should be relieved of her duties,” he huffed. “She’s doing a lot for the company, but her health should come first. I haven’t been able to have this conversation with her because things are quite rocky between us now, but…” he stopped, scratching his nape idly. “I hope to, soon. Right now, she thinks I'm out to get everything she has

I lurched forward, panting. The car in front of us slowed to a stop, and both doors were flung open.My father and mother stepped out, their expressions mirroring each other. They stormed to the car and pulled both doors open, their eyes blazing with anger.“Arya!” my mom pulled me into a tight hug immediately. I wrapped my arms around her, letting her scent fill my nostrils. She squeezed me to herself, rubbing her hand over the small of my back. “I rushed here as soon as I heard the news. Are you hurt?”“Just a little.”She pulled back, assessing my arm. “Oh, this is bad. Who could have done this?”“The police are investigating,” I replied. “I don’t know anyone who could have done this mom, but hopefully, we’ll find out soon.”Her eyes drifted over to Edgar. “You,” she snapped. What are you doing there? Why didn’t you take her to the hospital?”

He was used to making me scared of him, so he could feel great about himself and do whatever he wanted without fail. This time, I refused to give him that satisfaction.“You can’t determine that, Edgar.”“We’re married. The law recognizes us as a couple. How do you expect me to feel when you keep hanging around your ex.”“I don’t even remember him.”“That’s what gives him the audacity to do all those things to you.” Edgar inched towards me, desperation flashing in his eyes. “I have said this countless times, and I won't get tired of saying it anytime soon. You can’t keep encouraging Lucien to do what he wants with you. He thinks he has the right to do whatever he wants because you give him leeway.”“Lucien is a good person."“That’s just what he pretends to be.”“He’s better than you,” I snapped, unable to stop myself. “Lucien is a

I stretch my uninjured arm wide, putting some much needed distance between them.“We’re in public, Lucien," I whispered to him. “With so much cameras around, we can’t give people a reason to gossip about you.”Fuming, Lucien backed down. Regina, on the other hand, took his place. She took slow steps towards Edgar, causing him to retreat in fear. “Who the hell do you think you are?” she questioned, her voice dropping to a whisper. “You dare to raise your voice at me?”“I…” Edgar cleared his throat, looking down at her. “I just think that you and your son should stay out of my business.
