Rejected By My Mate, Claimed By Contract
Fiona thinks she has it all-love, loyalty, and a secured life-until her mate, Alpha Kael, leaves her for his first love, Laila. Abandoning her at the altar on the day of their bond reaffirmation before the moon goddess, Fiona watches helplessly as Kael dotes on Laila from the shadows without knowing how else to claim back her mate.
Fiona soon discovers she's pregnant and hopes the news will finally bring Kael back to her. But her world shatters when Laila, also carrying Kael's child, pushes Fiona down a hill during a heated fight, causing her to have a miscarriage that left her broken and desperate for revenge.
Just when all hopes seems lost, Fiona crosses path with Alpha Derek, the blind yet most powerful Alpha in the Eastern region. He offers revenge against her unfaithful mate and his mistress in exchange for becoming his Luna for a year.
She agrees. But Derek is no savior. He hides behind his dark shades and darker secrets. Worse still, he’s the very architect of her pains. Yet the closer she gets to him, the more her heart betrays her...because the most dangerous thing about Derek isn't his power or his schemes but the way he makes her want him, even when she swore she'd never risk her heart again.

Chapter: 81~ Fault Lines Derek’s POVZeal and I were making our way back from the pack clinic, our steps slow and dragged as we were both exhausted from the activities of the last forty-eight hours. The scent of antiseptic and herbs that still clung to our clothes clashed with the cool dusk air as we approached the packhouse.“How’s the rogue?” I asked in a low tone.Zeal folded his arms, keeping his voice just as low as mine. “He’s still refusing to speak. He hasn’t uttered a word since we captured him,” he said. “I had the healers clean up his wounds so we don’t lose him, thinking he would get talking once he is better, but he’s locked his mouth tighter than a damn vault.”“That won’t work for me,” I replied, grinding my teeth. “I need to speak with him myself and see how long he will be able to hold back.”Zeal nodded. “I knew it would get to this.”We kept walking in silence for a while before I went on to break the silence again. “Have you seen Fiona?” I asked casually, trying not to sound too possessive

Chapter: 80~ Your CallFiona’s POV When I left Derek in the council hall, my mind was still buzzing with everything we’ve uncovered, everything we—Derek—suspected, and everything that could disastrously go wrong within the next twenty-four hours. The moment I found myself back in my chambers, I felt even more sick from the quietness, and I knew I wouldn’t last long sitting idle. So I called Eva and sent her on an errand to go over to the Goldfang pack, which was Miles’s pack, and tell him that I wished to meet with him urgently in the same spot we met last time. I didn’t have his number to reach out to him directly, and asking anyone else would only end up stirring suspicions I wasn’t ready to deal with.Eva returned later that afternoon with positive feedback about him granting my request, and I was so relieved because I direly needed another voice in all of this. As soon as the sun dipped and the shadows of things now stretched longer on the dusty grounds, I slipped away from the pack house and headed

Chapter: 79~ Before the Mask Falls Fiona’s POV The next morning dragged itself slowly over my restless night, placing a heaviness on my shoulders that I couldn’t shake off. I didn’t want to be alone with my thoughts, not with everything I had gone through these past few days, not with the attack that the pack was faced with two nights ago, and certainly not with the thought of a spy sitting so close to us. So, I threw myself into helping the injured at the pack clinic.The healing ward was filled with the nauseous smell of blood, herbs—some dried, some fresh—the murmurs from the healers as they moved in between the beds, along with the groans from the wounded wolves. I moved around with them, offering little help where I could just to make myself feel useful and keep my mind occupied before my haunting thoughts devoured me. I hadn’t seen Derek all morning, but I didn’t have any plans on doing that because I knew he was already setting his plan in motion, and I didn’t want to interfere or distract him. Also, I didn’t

Chapter: 78~ A Calculated Movement Derek’s POVFiona pulled me away from the chaos, weaving us through the wounded and the scattered debris. My mind raced the entire time of the walk, trying to make sense of everything that had happened while still trying to think about what she had to tell me that sounded so urgent.Once we got to the far wall of the training block, with the cries and groans fading into a dull hum, “How are you?” Fiona asked, turning to me. “And how are you holding up?”Her question seemed to have cracked open the box I have been trying to fit all my frustration into as I let out a harsh breath, shaking my head slowly before exploding. “I’m not holding up at all. I’m frustrated as hell, Fiona. I’m still trying so hard to understand how the rogues go in this clean. It doesn’t make any damn sense.”“I… I know,” she breathed. “They took us all by surprise. I mean, that was their plan all along.”“They move like they had lived in the pack with us, avoiding trip lines, even bypassing the early-warning bel

Chapter: 77~ The Things Hiding In The Dark Fiona’s POV Sitting through Derek’s emergency meeting with Xira, the head of security, and the supply master left an uncomfortable feeling nudging at my chest. I kept quiet the entire time, choosing only to observe, because I knew better than to speak in gatherings like this, especially one where I know my presence is not fully welcomed by everyone. Still, I found myself studying each person in the room, watching how they reacted to what Derek was sharing with them. The fact that he had called only these three, not the full council of elders or the iron circle, told me everything I needed to know. Derek knew something he wasn’t saying. Something that placed one of them under suspicion, or something that requires only these three to help him corner the spy. My instincts leaned toward the second option because I couldn’t bring myself to think that Xira would betray Derek. She was loyal to him in a way most wolves would only wish for, ready to lay down her life for him if it ever g

Chapter: 76~ Quiet KnivesDerek’s POV The journey to Silvercrest was supposed to be a long ride, but it felt shorter than it should have, and I knew that was because Fiona was beside me now, and I was no longer racing against time to save her life—at least for now. By the time we made it into my territory, with the sun already on its way back to its resting place, Fiona didn’t waste a second catching her breath. With me walking closely behind her and Mara catching up with us, she went straight into settling Eva and the others into the pack like she had prepared for this moment all her life. She checked them into the empty cottages that had been out of use for a while now—even the ones that were a little worn out—and the shared staff quarters where space was available, making sure no one was cramped or uncomfortable.She reassured those who ended up in the older cottages that they’d be fixed up properly in no time, so they shouldn’t worry themselves about that. Thereafter, she went on to inspect each of th
