Chapter: Chapter Forty-TwoHarper’s POV:"What do you mean?"The words flew out before my brain caught up. My shoulders jerked back against the seat and the leather was cold... too cold, like ice pressing through my shirt.Hardin moved.Not fast. Slow. Deliberate. Each shift of his weight making the limousine creak until he was right there beside me and the heat coming off his body made my skin prickle."Harper, I mean what I mean." His voice dropped lower. "These are the questions I've been meaning to ask you for the past six years."My throat closed up."Harper..." He paused and I watched his chest rise... fall... rise again like he was forcing air into his lungs. "I saw you that night."The world tilted.My hands flew to my face and pressed against my cheeks because suddenly everything was too hot... my skin burning, my blood rushing so loud in my ears I could barely hear him."Oh my days... fuck." The words came out muffled behind my palms.This wasn't... he couldn't have...I'd been so careful. So fucking c

Chapter: Chapter Forty-OneHarper's POV:“Come here."He pulled me toward him the moment we got into his limousine... hopped into the back seat and dragged me with him until I was practically on top of him.The wetness pooling between my legs was something I was getting ashamed of.Hardin still having this kind of effect on me wasn't something I believed could happen anymore... not especially now that I was a different woman than who I used to be.I'd thought I wouldn't be able to feel anymore.But here I was... crawling toward him on my hands and knees like I was starving for his touch.I wanted to yank my pants off... the pants I'd spent thousands of dollars on just for today's opening.Wanted to rip them off and climb onto his lap and ride him until I lost my mind.I settled myself on top of him and started grinding... feeling him hard beneath me through both our clothes.The sounds coming from both of us were ruining me."I want you... I want you." Hardin's voice came out rough and desperate.Then he flippe

Chapter: Chapter FortyHarper's POV:I was stunned.At the same time, something like joy rushed through me... unexpected and unwelcome but there it was anyway.I'd been worried when Hardin kept talking about my money in the car... kept saying how degenerated I was, kept hinting at things he shouldn't know.Everything he was trying to say wasn't funny to me.I know I'd told him to get out of my life... told him to forget about our past together, but I didn't want him to know the part of me I kept buried.The part that scared me sometimes.The things I'd done in the past six years.I thought Hardin had caught up to that... thought he'd somehow found out about Montana and what came after.I wouldn't like myself if he did.I sincerely wanted him to still think of me as the girl who loved him so much."Am I crazy for wanting that though?" The thought flew through my head while I stared at the beautiful scenery in front of me.A big fountain with water cascading down carved stone... butterflies everywhere, dozens

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-NineHardin’s POV:"Let me out!"Her voice almost made me laugh... the feisty part of her was still there, just more intense now than it used to be.The memory jumped at me without permission... the last time we'd been together like this, the last day I'd had her at my side.I'd locked her in my car that day too... ran out to beat Jerry Robb to a pulp while she screamed at me to stop.I wished that day had never happened.If it hadn't, Harper wouldn't have left me... wouldn't have gone back to Montana, and what happened to her that night... what changed her into this cold version of herself... none of it would have happened."Fine!" She was still talking and her voice was sharp. "Do what pleases you... just know this is the last time you'll be able to get me like this. It was my fault I mistakenly entered your car."She stared at me so intensely I could feel it even with my eyes closed.I didn't respond.My head was still resting against the seat and I kept my eyes shut because if I opened

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-EightHarper’s POV:I slammed my office door shut and my hands were shaking when I pulled out my phone.Jessica wasn't responding through the earpiece and that image I'd seen earlier kept flashing in my head... her red dress, someone else beside her who looked like Jenny."Couldn't have been." I shook my head while dialing her number.I needed to leave... needed to find out what Hardin was talking about, needed to get to my apartment where I could think without feeling like the walls were closing in.The phone rang. And rang.Ten minutes of calling and Jessica was nowhere."Where the hell is she?" I grabbed my blazer off the chair, which I've removed due my ribs almost cracking earlier, and headed for the door.The party was still going when I stepped back into the event space... music pounding, people laughing, fans taking selfies trying to prove they'd seen Harper Lane in person.I couldn't care less about any of it.My eyes scanned the crowd looking for him... looking for any sign of whe

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-SevenHarper's POV:I was happy.The word kept repeating in my head while I smiled and nodded at people congratulating me... while I shook hands and accepted compliments and pretended my skin wasn't crawling from feeling Hardin's eyes on me.Happy.Proud.This should have been one of the best days of my life.The US Secretary of Commerce was standing in front of me now presenting some award and his mouth was moving but I couldn't hear a single word he was saying because Hardin was somewhere behind me and I could feel his stare like heat on my back."Gosh." I pressed my fingernails into my palm.I wouldn't let him see that he still affected me... wouldn't give him that power.It's in the past and I can get over it... I've been telling myself that for six years and eventually it has to become true."Harper, you have to thank him!" Jessica's voice crackled through the earpiece hidden under my hair.I'd almost forgotten I was wearing it... the tiny device disguised as an ear accessory that let

The Wolfless Luna's Revenge
She was broken. He made her whole. But her past won't stay buried.
Sera Hartley was rejected on her eighteenth birthday—humiliated in front of her entire pack by the one man fated to love her. Cade Storm, the future Alpha, looked at her wolfless body and declared her too weak to be his Luna.
Shattered and desperate, Sera ran. For three years, she built a quiet life among humans, burying the mate bond that still claws at her chest, working in a small-town diner where no one knows her shame.
Then he walks in.
Conrad Hawthorn. Ancient. Powerful. Dangerous. An Alpha whose presence makes her knees weak and her pulse race.
He claims she's his mate—but that's impossible.
The Moon Goddess doesn't grant second chances to the wolfless and broken.
Conrad doesn't care what's impossible. He pursues her with a hunger that sets her skin on fire, protects her from threats she doesn't see coming, and looks at her like she's the only thing in his world that matters. When his lips finally claim hers, when his hands map every curve of her trembling body, Sera feels something she thought she'd never have
Wanted. Desired. Whole.
But the past has holes. And when Sera's wolf finally emerges powerful, Alpha-born, magnificent.
Her old pack comes crawling back. Cade wants what he threw away. Her real father demands she take her rightful place. And Conrad? He'll burn the world down before he lets anyone take his mate.
Two Alphas. One woman. A bond that defies the laws of their kind.
But when her wolf awakens, will Sera discover she was never the weak one at all?

Chapter: Chapter SixSera’s POV:Normal flew out the window the second the Alpha walked back through those doors the next morning.I was wiping down table three when the bell chimed and my whole body just... stopped. Like someone cut the strings holding me up. The rag slipped from my fingers and hit the floor with a wet slap that felt too loud in my ears.He was back.And he sat down at one of my tables again. Not the same one as yesterday... no, he picked a different table, but still in my section. Still where I'd have to face him.My chest went tight. I couldn't breathe right."Ser, honey, you dropped your rag," Mrs. Judith called from behind the counter.I bent down and grabbed it, my hands shaking so bad I nearly dropped it again. Get it together. Just... get it together.I had to make someone else take his table. Had to. There was no way I could walk over there and pretend everything was fine when my wolf... or whatever was inside me... was screaming at me to run.One of the new girls Mrs. Judith hire

Chapter: Chapter Five Three Years Later:Sera’s POV:The box of plates landed solid on the shelf and I stepped back to admire the neat arrangement, feeling that small burst of satisfaction that came from finishing a task well."Look at you, making my stockroom look like something out of a magazine." Mrs. Judith's sister appeared in the doorway with a warm smile. "There's a blueberry danish waiting for you on the counter, fresh out of the oven.""You spoil me." I grabbed the pastry and took a bite, the buttery sweetness melting on my tongue. Three years of these mornings and I still wasn't used to how good her baking was."Someone has to, and lord knows you won't spoil yourself." She poured coffee into a to-go cup. "You drive out to Ridgemont yesterday?""Yeah, just wanted to enjoy the fresh air." The lie came easy after three years of practice. I'd driven two hours south yesterday just to mail Mom's birthday card from a different town, with no return address and a postmark that would lead them nowhere clos

Chapter: Chapter FourSera’s POV:The guard booth came up fast, yellow light spilling across the road. I gripped the steering wheel tighter and tried to make my face look normal even though my eyes were swollen and my throat felt raw from crying.He leaned out of the booth window and waved me through without even looking twice. No questions. No mindlink to the Alpha. Just a wave like I was going to get groceries and would be back in an hour.I pressed the gas and the pack border passed beneath my tires and I waited for it, that pull in my chest that happened every time I left pack territory, but instead something loosened. The pressure that had been sitting on my ribs for days lifted and I could breathe deeper than I had since Cade's face twisted with disappointment under the firelight.The highway stretched empty in front of me and I drove.Three hours later I pulled into the bank parking lot in the nearest human town. My hands shook when I filled out the withdrawal slips, when I closed the savings accoun

Chapter: Chapter ThreeSera’s POV:Mom got up and I heard her walk to the door, heard it open and then Luna Skye's voice drifted up the stairs soft and careful."Samantha, I made some tea. How is she doing?""Thank you but I'm fine." Mom's voice had an edge to it I'd never heard before, sharp and cold. "She's holding strong.""I was hoping to sit with her for a while, to see if I could be of help or comfort.""I don't think that's a good idea. Sera needs her family right now.""Samantha." Luna Skye's voice went high and tight. "I'd like to think of myself as family. We've been close since we mated with Kieran and John.""I would have said the same yesterday but after what your son did to my baby I think we need to rethink certain things. I need to protect Sera and we both know the pack won't protect her the way they would someone who wasn't rejected by the future Alpha. The least I can do is make sure she's around the right people.""I love her like a daughter.""But not enough to fight for her. Skye, you a

Chapter: Chapter TwoSera’s POV:"Sera."Cade said my name low and sad, like he was already mourning something, and I felt the space around us clear as everyone stepped back because newly mated pairs needed room, needed privacy, needed protection until they'd claimed each other. Somewhere far away I heard Dad and Alpha Kieran laughing as they congratulated each other but the sound felt wrong, felt like it was coming from underwater."Cade." My voice came out barely above a whisper.He took a few steps toward me and I couldn't move, couldn't look away from his eyes because they were telling me something I didn't want to hear, something that was making my stomach twist tighter and tighter until I thought I might break apart right there in front of everyone."Ser, I'm sorry but I can't."Each word hit like a fist to the chest. The pack went silent, so silent I could hear my own heartbeat thundering in my ears, and for a second I wished he'd just hit me instead because at least then I could pass out or die or

Chapter: Chapter OneSera’s POV:"Maybe she's just human, John. Maybe we need to accept that."The words drifted from the Alpha's office window, and I froze with the wool blankets clutched against my chest. Mom's voice, the one she used when she was trying to be gentle about something that would cut me open."She's not human." Dad's voice came out rough, angry in a way that made my stomach twist. "Don't say that about our daughter.""I'm not trying to hurt anyone, but it's been two years past when most wolves emerge and tomorrow she turns eighteen without any sign..." Mom's voice cracked, and that was somehow worse than if she'd just said it mean. "What if we're setting her up to get hurt? What if she finds her mate tomorrow and he rejects her because she can't shift? You know how this works."I couldn't breathe. Couldn't move. The blankets slipped from my hands and hit the ground with a soft thud that felt too loud in my ears."Pick those up, kid."I spun around and there was Gamma Luca, watching me wit
