MATED TO THE ALPHA I HATED
"You think this is a game?" Jaxson whispered against my lips, his breath hot against my skin. "You think I'm tracking down books and ordering pastries because I'm bored? I don't give a damn about your rules, Ava. You drive me crazy... with or without the bond."
Four years ago, Jaxson shattered me. He humiliated me in front of the entire pack, turned my secret feelings into a joke, and forced me to run from the only home I had ever known.
I swore I’d never come back.
But fate is a twisted bitch.
Standing at his coronation, the mate bond snapped into place with terrifying force, tying my soul to the ruthless Alpha I promised to hate forever.
"This is Ava, my mate. Your new Luna."
Now, I’m forced to share his bed, wear his mark, and play the dutiful Luna for a pack that once laughed at my tears. He thinks the bond gives him total ownership over my body and my heart.
But Jaxson broke a young girl years ago. The woman who returned? She’s going to bring the Alpha to his knees.Literally.

Chapter: STALKER PROBLEMSJAXSONBecause he loved her first.The five words rang in my head for who knows how long.Ava wasn't mine because I loved her. She was mine because the Moon Goddess had decided it. Because of a bond she never asked for. Because somewhere along the way, fate had tied her life to mine and expected me to simply accept it.That was all.He didn't want her for political leverage, territory boundaries, or power.He wanted her because he loved her. Because he had been watching her in the dark, craving her, holding onto a ghost from her past while she was sleeping under my roof, wearing my mark, and breathing in my space.Loved her. The phrase made my blood run hot.Jaxson? Ava’s voice reached me through our bond. I felt murderous rage pouring through our bond and also dare I say it, a hint of concern.I didn't answer her. I couldn't. If I opened my mouth, I might say something stupid. I turned abruptly, shoving past Ethan, and kicked open the rusted door open, going straight outside.

Chapter: A FEW FUCKING FEET AWAYJAXSONHe was trembling so violently his teeth clicked together.I didn't offer him shelter. I grabbed him by the front of his soaked jacket and dragged him, slamming him backward into the wooden chair Ava had now raised. Ethan stepped inside behind us, locking the door.Ava stood near the doorway, her arms wrapped tightly around her ribs, her dark eyes hollow as she stared at the man who had been lying to her friend for months."Start talking," I growled, stepping into his space. My Alpha command vibrated through the small room.Dean swallowed hard, his throat bobbing as he looked up at me with exhaustion. "I didn't want any of this.""That's not an answer," I shot back, my claws extending an inch, hovering right over his collarbone."I know," Dean muttered, his voice breaking. His eyes flicked past my shoulder, landing on Ava. "He made me watch her."My jaw tightened so hard. "Who?"Dean’s face went pale instantly."My Alpha."The room went dead silent. Ethan let out a coug

Chapter: THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SOUND EVERJAXSONThe blood drained from Ava’s face in a fraction of a second.Her hand was trembling so violently the phone almost slipped from her fingers. Through our bond, a sudden, blinding wave of terror crashed over me.She's gone, Ava’s voice echoed inside my head, her thoughts a panicked, chaotic mess. Jaxson, he has her—"Give me the phone," I commanded, stepping forward and taking the device from her cold hands. The screen was already black. The call had lasted barely six seconds.I didn't waste a breath. I reached for my phone immediately."Ethan. Trace the last incoming call on Ava’s phone. Now. Lock down all four gates and put the perimeter guards on red alert."“Traced,” Ethan’s voice cut back within two minutes. “An abandoned roadside motel three miles past the human border line. The call was cut from the source.”Ava was already moving."Where do you think you're going?" I growled, reaching out and catching her firmly by the wrist."I'm going with you!" she snapped, tu

Chapter: DEAD ENDSAVATwo weeks.Two weeks since the meeting, the drug, the stalker, and the realization that someone had mapped out my entire life down.Two weeks, and Maya hadn't answered a single text.I sat on the edge of the terrace, staring at my phone screen for the hundredth time. Call dropped. Voicemail full. Messages unread.At first, I told myself they were just busy. Maya told me at the club that she was notorious for losing her charger or going on spontaneous weekend road trips with her boyfriend, Dean. But seven days turned into ten. Ten turned into fourteen.And now, I felt unease every second, every minute, every hour.I wasn't blind. I had noticed the changes around the estate over the last few days. Jaxson had quietly doubled my security. He hadn't announced it, and he hadn't asked for my permission. He’d just done it.I knew how to handle an overbearing Alpha. I understood force. I understood control.What I didn't understand was the tray sitting on the table in front of me

Chapter: THEY CAME FOR MY LUNAAVAThe man’s unhinged smile was burned into the back of my eyelids.My blood turned to ice. My eyes searched the room for the nearest weapon, until they finally rested on the vase. I clamped my hand around the ceramic, spinning around and losing towards the balcony. It was stupid and useless. He was already gone The doors of the bedroom slammed open immediately."Ava!" Ethan’s voice sounded as he burst in, holding a steaming glass of tea.My gaze remained on the balcony as the curtains fluttered softly against the cool night breeze I stood frozen in the middle of the room, my heart hammering against my ribs."Someone was here," I breathed, my voice rough, my chest heaving as the last lingering traces of the drug fought against the adrenaline seeping through my body. "Ethan, someone was standing right there!"Ethan didn't hesitate. He drew his weapon and swept the balcony, checking the lock, the ground three stories below.Thirty seconds later, he walked back inside, holst

Chapter: GOING HOME SOONJAXSONThe moment the weird guy dragged the guy around the corner, Ava turned, caught sight of me walking towards her and froze.Before I could close the gap between us, she spun on her heel and vanished."Ava!" I called out, pushing past a startled flower vendor.I reached through the bond, slamming against the golden tether in my mind. Ava, stop right there.I was met with nothing but silence.She had built a wall in her mind, completely severing my link to her. I was honestly impressed with how she was able to do something like that considering the fact that we just discovered this new ability.Panic clawed its way up my throat as I swiped through my phone. "Jaxson?" Ethan stepped up beside me in five minutes, concern written all over his face."Spread out!" I roared, my voice dropping into a terrifying Alpha frequency that made passersby stare. “ I want every guard in the perimeter searching for her now. Find my Luna"The last sentence came out a bit softer and more plead
