Rejected by the billionaire Alpha
On her eighteenth birthday, Luna expected a fated mate; instead, she received a death sentence. Publicly rejected by Alpha Kael of the Silvercrest Pack, the "useless Omega" is left for dead in the snow. But Luna doesn't die. She vanishes, carrying a secret that could rewrite werewolf history: her blood runs silver, marking her as the lost heir to the Alpha King.
Five years later, the Omega is dead, and a Goddess has risen.
Luna returns as a world-renowned biochemist and billionaire CEO of Blackwood Industries, backed by the most terrifying man in the supernatural underworld: Dante Blackwood, a rogue billionaire who treats her like a queen and kills like a monster. When a lethal virus strikes Silvercrest, the pack is forced to beg for Luna's help.
Kael is haunted by the ghost of the girl he threw away, but the woman who returns doesn't want his apologies—she wants his empire. As the mate bond claws at Kael’s sanity, Luna must choose between the destiny that broke her and the "Monster" who put her back together. In a world of teeth and title, the Omega won’t just survive; she will reign.

Chapter: The system pushes back The morning arrived with the weight of a blade waiting to fall. Luna had expected resistance—she had planned for it, built contingencies, prepared for every conceivable countermove. What she hadn't expected was how quickly the old world would show its teeth."Three territories have refused compliance."The report landed sharp and early, cutting through the calm she had engineered the night before. No panic in the war room—she had trained them better than that. But no illusion either. The faces around the table were set, waiting for direction.Luna didn't sit this time. She stood at the head of the room, her fingers resting lightly against the polished wood, her silver eyes fixed on the analyst who had spoken. "Names."The analyst hesitated, aware of the weight she was passing. "Ironclaw. Red Hollow. North Vale."Of course. The oldest packs. The ones whose power had been built on the very hierarchies Luna was dismantling. The one

Chapter: The first reformPower didn't return to Silvercrest. It shifted.The council chamber had been stripped of its ceremonial weight—the heavy drapes pulled back, the raised dais dismantled, the centuries-old crests removed from the walls. Luna had ordered it done herself, not out of spite, but out of necessity. You couldn't build something new in a room still haunted by the old.The long table remained. But now it was surrounded by faces that had never sat at it before. Elders who had spent decades in power now shared space with wolves they had once dismissed. Betas who had enforced the old hierarchies now listened to voices they had been trained to ignore. And for the first time in Silvercrest's history, omegas sat at the table."The draft is ready."The tablet slid across the polished wood, stopping precisely in front of Luna. No dramatic music. No applause. Just policy.She glanced down at the screen. Omega Class Restructuring Act — Phase On

Chapter: The final assets fallsThe last pillar didn't collapse. It froze.Luna stood at the center of the war room, her reflection fractured across a dozen dark screens. Around her, analysts worked in the particular silence of people who knew they were watching history—not making it, not shaping it, simply recording its inevitable progress.The alert came at 3:17 p.m."Primary reserve account just triggered a security lock."The words landed like a verdict. No panic. No celebration. Just the quiet, clinical hum of a system doing exactly what it had been designed to do.Luna didn't turn around. "Cause?""Multiple compliance flags. Cross-border inconsistencies. Unverified asset origins. The system flagged everything simultaneously." A pause. "It's airtight."Of course it was. She had spent months designing the architecture that would bring down Silvercrest's financial empire. Every trigger, every flag, every automated freeze had been planned,

Chapter: The Audit That Ate a Kingdom The first domino didn't fall loudly.It slid.A quiet notification. A flagged discrepancy in an account that wasn't supposed to exist. A question submitted to the Silvercrest Financial Oversight Committee—the kind of routine inquiry that got filed and forgotten, buried under paperwork and polite bureaucracy.Except this one didn't get forgotten.Luna watched it happen from the glass-walled war room of Blackwood Industries, her reflection layered over graphs bleeding red across a dozen screens. The analysts around her worked in tense silence, their fingers moving across keyboards, their eyes fixed on numbers that told a story no one wanted to hear."Again," she said softly.Across the table, the lead analyst reran the model. Numbers reshuffled like frightened soldiers, but the pattern held. Same structure. Same invisible hand guiding money through channels designed to look legitimate."Third shell company," the analy

Chapter: Tracing the Origin The underground archive was a place of silence. Not the peaceful kind—the heavy, suffocating silence of secrets buried so deep they had grown roots.Luna descended the stone stairs alone, her footsteps echoing off walls that hadn't seen light in thirty years. Dante had wanted to come. She had asked him to wait. Some things required walking into darkness alone.The key had been hidden inside the ledger—a code that resolved into coordinates beneath the old treasury building. Coordinates that led here, to a vault that didn't exist on any map, behind a door that required three separate authentication protocols to open.She had them all now.The door swung inward with a groan of ancient hinges. Inside, a single table. On it, a single box.And inside the box, a single file.She opened it with hands that didn't shake, though everything in her wanted them to.The first page bore her father's signature.She sat in t

Chapter: Whispered Alliances The greenhouse at the edge of Silvercrest's botanical gardens had been abandoned for years, its glass panels cracked, its tropical plants long since dead. Tonight, it served a different purpose.Luna arrived alone, her footsteps crunching on frozen gravel. The fog was thick enough to swallow sound, turning the world into a muffled gray void. She had chosen this place deliberately—neutral ground, visible from all sides, impossible to wire for surveillance.A single lantern burned at the center of the greenhouse, its light casting long shadows across dead soil and broken pots. Three figures waited beside it.She recognized them all.Elara Vane, former deputy to the Finance Council, forced out two years ago for asking too many questions. Marcus Cole, a mid-level auditor who had been quietly documenting irregularities for nearly a decade. And Ren, a fixer who had once worked for the council's most powerful members before realizing he wa

Chapter: The sewing room confession Céline's povSunday mornings in the flat are quiet. Almost sacred.Sunlight filters through the tall Edinburgh windows, pale and gentle against the wooden floors. The city outside is still waking up—distant buses, the occasional gull crying above the rooftops.Inside, the world smells like coffee and fabric.I sit cross-legged on the floor of the small sewing room we claimed as a "creative space," surrounded by spools of thread and scraps of silk I brought from Lyon. A soft French folk song hums under my breath as my fingers guide the needle through pale ivory fabric.It's calming. Predictable.Unlike the rest of my life lately.Because every time my mind goes quiet—it returns to him. His voice. His eyes. The way he said my name last night. Goodnight, Céline.I stab the needle a little harder than necessary.Focus. Thread. Fabric. Precision. This is something I understand.The door creaks open

Chapter: A Drunken Confrontation Céline's povThe cold air outside the pub should sober me.It doesn't.My steps across the street are uneven, cobblestones tilting beneath my boots like the entire city is gently rocking. Or maybe that's just the beer.Adrian notices me halfway across the road. I see the exact moment recognition hits him. His posture stiffens. His shoulders straighten. Professor mode.But it's too late for that now.Because I'm already standing in front of him. Too close. Close enough to see the faint shadow of stubble along his jaw. Close enough to remember exactly how that jaw felt beneath my fingers in the rain.Sienna's eyes flick between us with unsettling sharpness."Céline, isn't it?" she says smoothly. Her voice is pleasant. Too pleasant."Yes," I reply, trying—and failing—to sound completely sober.Adrian clears his throat. "Miss Laurent."The formality lands between us like a slap.I

Chapter: jealousy is a poisonCéline’s POVThe pub is louder than it should be. Or perhaps my head is simply louder tonight.Music pulses through the crowded room, laughter bouncing off the walls, glasses clinking. My classmates are everywhere—shouting, joking, already several drinks ahead of good judgement.This was supposed to help. A distraction. A way to prove the universe contains more than one dangerously intelligent man with grey eyes and a voice that lingers in my thoughts like silk slipping through fingers.So far, the plan is failing. Spectacularly."Another round?" Callum asks, appearing beside me with two pints already in hand.He's handsome in the effortless way confident men tend to be—tousled hair, mischievous grin, easy charm. Tonight, he is clearly trying very hard."Why not," I reply, accepting the drink. The beer is cold and slightly bitter. I take a generous sip.Across the table, Priya is laughing so hard she nearly knoc

Chapter: lines that must not be crossedAdrian's POVThe moment I leave the lab, the cold Edinburgh air hits me like a reprimand.Good. I deserve it.The university courtyard is nearly empty at this hour. Rain drifts lazily through the yellow glow of streetlamps, and the ancient stone buildings loom like silent judges. Inside one of those buildings is a student. A brilliant, curious, dangerously captivating student.And I just spent twenty minutes watching her weave silk like it was second nature.I walk faster. Distance. That's the only sensible strategy now.Because the problem isn't simply that Céline Laurent is attractive. Universities are full of attractive people. The problem is that she is fascinating. And fascination is much harder to control.By the time I reach my flat, the rain has soaked through my coat. Perfect. A cold shower for the brain.Inside, the apartment is dark and quiet. I drop my keys on the kitchen counter and stare

Chapter: Midnight fibresThe engineering building feels completely different at night.During the day it's full of noise—students rushing, machines humming, lectures echoing through halls. At midnight, it's almost peaceful. Fluorescent lights buzz softly overhead, and long hallways echo with every step.Technically, students aren't supposed to be here this late. But Maisie gave me the after-hours code for the textile lab. "Creative emergencies," she called it.Tonight qualifies.Because I can't stop thinking about the assignment. Or the emails. Or the way Professor Adrian Hale said he was "looking forward" to my approach. That single line has been replaying in my head all evening.Not because it was flirtatious. It wasn't. It was simply interested. Curious.And curiosity from a man like him feels strangely intoxicating.I push open the lab door.Inside, the room smells faintly of cotton fibres and machine oil.

Chapter: The Email Thread By midnight, our flat is quiet.Which is rare. Priya has finally stopped talking. Maisie passed out on the sofa after declaring Scottish whisky a "scientific necessity." Yuki reads peacefully by the window. Ines disappeared hours ago with a notebook and a candle.I should be sleeping.Instead I'm staring at my laptop. At an email draft addressed to Professor Adrian Hale.Subject: Assignment ClarificationI sigh. This is ridiculous. Students email professors every day. Entire academic systems function through polite, mildly boring correspondence. This should not feel like flirting with disaster.Yet somehow it does.Because every time I imagine pressing send, I remember his voice in that office. Office hours should remain academic. The implication being: absolutely nothing else should.I glance at the clock. 12:14 a.m. He's probably asleep. Responsible academics go to bed early.Which means the
