Marked and forgotten by the Alpha
“Aria,” He called my name so sweetly as my legs wobbled. No, no, no..I can’t fall for his charms again.
“Don’t touch me!” My voice betrayed me. A moan came out as Lucas drew closer to me.
“What do you think, that I will ever let you go? Never ever…” His breath fanned my face, and one more trick from him, then I’m doomed. I’m here for revenge, but he wants to ruin me.
***
Aria, the girl everyone knows as the one marked under the blood moon. She was chosen by the moon goddess years ago to bear the mark, but little did she know what her destiny was.
She was faced with so much torture from the people because they think that whoever bears that mark would cause nothing but destruction.
Aria became a threat to the kingdom. Enemies wanting to take the one who bears the mark. And the one person she trusts betrays her. Lucas, his quest for more power made him sacrifice Aria to access the throne.
Years later, war started in the kingdom, and Aria, the forbidden Luna, came back with a completely different personality, not that once sweet Aria they all knew but instead a strong and powerful Aria that no one could challenge.
Lucas regretted everything he did to Aria, but Aria no longer wanted love but revenge.
But with their mate bond activated and with nothing but revenge in her heart leading the kingdom to doom, Lucas must choose either to surrender to the mate he once betrayed or lose his world to the wrath of the Luna he forgot.

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY-FIVECHAPTER FORTY-FIVEAria's POVTwo weeks passed in a strange kind of peace.I spent my mornings training students. My afternoons walking the pack lands. My evenings wrapped in Lucas's arms. It felt normal and quiet.In the best way possible."You're smiling," Kira observed one morning. We watched Sarah lead a training session. Her students practiced shields, getting better every day."I'm allowed to smile.""You are but it's nice to see. You've been so serious since losing your power. Today you look almost happy.""I think I am happy. It's strange but good."Sarah called out a correction to one of her students. The shield strengthened immediately. Pride swelled in my chest. These kids were going to be incredible."She's a natural teacher," Kira said. "Just like someone else I know.""She's better than I ever was.""Liar but I'll let you have that." Kira bumped my shoulder. "So the alliance council meeting is tomorrow. Are you nervous?""Terrified. What if they expect me to do something

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR CHAPTER FORTY-FOURAria's POVThe ceremony happened at noon.I stood in the center of the courtyard wearing a white dress Kira had somehow found. The entire pack surrounded me. Allied packs too. Hundreds of faces staring with something that looked like worship.It made my skin crawl."Breathe," Lucas whispered beside me. He looked devastating in his formal Alpha attire. All sharp lines and power. "You're doing fine.""I hate this.""I know. Five more minutes. Then it's over."Elder Rothwin stepped forward. The same man who once voted to execute me. Now he looked at me with something like reverence."Aria Vale." His voice carried across the silent crowd. "You came to us marked by darkness cast out,feared but you became our light. Our shield. Our salvation."My throat tightened."Today we honor your sacrifice. The power you gave. The war you ended. The lives you saved." He held out a silver circlet a delicate,beautiful engraved with symbols from the old magic. "This belonged to the fir

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY-THREECHAPTER FORTY-THREEAria's POVThree days passed like flash I drifted in and out of consciousness. Every time I woke, Lucas was there holding my hand and stroking my hair just watching me with those worried eyes that made my chest ache."You need to sleep," I whispered during one lucid moment."I'll sleep when you're better." He brought water to my lips. I drank gratefully."Stubborn.""Says the girl who literally burned out her own power to save everyone." He smiled, but it was sad. "How are you feeling?""Empty. Like there's this huge hollow space inside me." I tried to explain but words felt inadequate. "I keep reaching for my light and there's nothing there.""Miriam says it might come back. Given time and rest.""Might not exactly reassuring.""But you're alive." He kissed my forehead. "I'll take you powerless over not having you at all."Kira appeared in the doorway still limping but looking better than she had on the battlefield."The hero is finally awake." She sat on the edg

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY-TWOCHAPTER FORTY-TWOAria's POVDawn came too fast.I woke wrapped in Lucas's arms. For a moment, I forgot about the battle. The ritual and everything waiting outside then I heard it. War horns blowing and reality crashed down."They're here," Lucas whispered against my hair.He didn't move neither did I. We just lay there, pretending we had more time."I love you," I said. My voice cracked."I love you too. No matter what happens today, that doesn't change." He kissed me softly. "Ready?""No but let's do this anyway."We got up,dressed in armor. I strapped on weapons I prayed I wouldn't need. Lucas checked everything twice, his hands lingering on my shoulders like he was memorizing me.Outside, the pack grounds were organized chaos. Warriors lined up in formation. My students gathered near the front, faces pale but determined. Kira stood with Garrett. When she saw me, she smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes."There's our Luna," she called out.A few warriors cheered. I still wasn't use

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY-ONECHAPTER FORTY-ONEAria's POVMiriam led me beneath the pack house to a hidden chamber that smelled like old stone and something ancient. The air was thick and heavy, pressing down on my chest."Sit." She pointed to a circle carved into the floor. Symbols I didn't recognize surrounded it, glowing faintly.I sat cross-legged in the center. My heart pounded."The ritual is simple in theory, dangerous in practice." Miriam pulled out a silver blade. "You'll cut your palm. Let three drops of blood fall on each cardinal point. Then channel every ounce of light you possess into the symbols. They'll absorb it. Magnify it. When battle comes, you'll release it all at once.""And then I die?""Maybe. Maybe not. It depends on your will to live." She looked at me seriously. "Light Bearers who survived all had one thing in common. They had something worth living for which is something that anchored them."Lucas, his face flashed in my mind. His smile. The way he held me. Our future."I have that," I

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTYCHAPTER FORTYAria's POVThe pack grounds buzzed with chaos. Warriors sharpened weapons,healers set up stations. Everyone moved with desperate urgency.Two days. We had two days before two hundred shadow wielders arrived."Aria!" Sarah ran up, breathless. "The students are asking for you. They're scared. I don't know what to tell them.""Tell them the truth. We're going to fight, and we're going to win.""But what if we don't?"I grabbed her shoulders gently. "Then we go down protecting the people we love but we don't think about losing. We only think about surviving."She nodded and ran back toward the training grounds.Thirty young wolves waited for me there. All wide-eyed looking terrified."I know you're scared," I started. My voice carried across the field. "I'm scared too but fear doesn't make us weak. It means we're smart enough to understand the danger and brave enough to face it anyway.""What do we do?" a young boy asked. "We've only been training for weeks. They're sending
