The Alpha's Cure
Lumina gave Ethan Cole everything: her heart, her trust, her future. As fated mates, they were destined by the Moon Goddess herself. But when pack politics demanded a marriage alliance, Ethan didn't just reject her privately; he destroyed her publicly. In front of over 200 pack members at his engagement ceremony to another woman. His words of rejection shattered her. But they didn't kill her.
Eleven months later, Lumina has rebuilt herself. She's Crestwood's most sought-after healer, strong, independent, and sworn never to trust a mate bond again.
Then, Supreme Alpha Dylan Virelli crashes into her clinic, bleeding and half-dead. Dylan is the most powerful werewolf on the East Coast, feared, untouchable. He's also been tortured by insomnia for seven years. But when Lumina's hands touch his skin to heal him, something happens: he sleeps. For the first time in seven years, he finds peace. She's his cure. His sanctuary. His second chance mate.
But not everyone is happy about it. Cruella Hayes, Dylan's obsessive ex-lover, refuses to let go. Ethan realizes what he lost and wants Lumina back. And Morgana, Ethan's cruel wife, has set her greedy eyes on Dylan.
When enemies close in from all sides, Lumina faces impossible choices. She is kidnapped twice. Tortured twice. The first time, she survives, but her body pays a price. The second time, she pours everything she has into protecting her unborn twins, but one dies.
And the betrayals don't stop there. The people closest to her are not who she thinks they are. Her best friend. Her mentor. The ones she trusted most are the ones who cut the deepest.
Will she survive long enough to fight for the mate who will burn the world to keep her safe? Or will the shadows of betrayal destroy everything?

Chapter: Chapter 20Dylan was already on the phone when Lumina woke up.She could hear him from the bedroom. Low voice. Controlled. The tone he used when he was getting information he didn't like. She lay there for a moment listening to the rhythm of it without being able to make out words. Then she got up and found him in the kitchen, standing at the window with his back to the room and his coffee going cold on the counter.He ended the call when he heard her come in."Cain?" she said."Yes.""And?"He turned around. "He's still tracing who brought Cruella here. It's not Ethan. Ethan is back in Riverside. This is someone else." He picked up his coffee. Looked at it. Put it back down. "Whoever it is, covered their tracks carefully."Lumina sat at the kitchen table. "So we wait.""We wait," he agreed. He looked at her for a moment. At the slight tightness around her eyes that hadn't been there before last night. At what the evening had cost her, even though she hadn't said a word about it costing her anyt

Chapter: Chapter 19Somewhere across town, Cain sat across from Dylan at the kitchen table in Dylan’s house and made his case without apology."The annual pack social is overdue," he said. "People are unsettled and troubled, especially with everything that's happened these past months, the move, the security changes, all of it. They need something normal. One evening where nothing is on fire."Dylan looked at him. "We've had a slightly busy few months.""Which is exactly why they need it." Cain set his coffee down. "Just food, people, music, dance, and stuff. The main hall. Nothing complicated."Dylan looked at Lumina across the table, expecting her to defend him.She raised an eyebrow. "Don't look at me. He's right.""You're supposed to be on my side.""I am on your side, and that side needs a party."Cain was already reaching for his phone. "Two weeks. I'll handle everything.""You always say that, and then I end up involved.""You're the Supreme Alpha. You're always involved." He stood up. "It'll be

Chapter: Chapter 18Morgana was on the phone when Ethan woke up.He could hear her from the bedroom; she was talking in a low voice, very calm and precise. He couldn't make out the words she was saying, but he definitely knew that tone. It was the tone she used when she was giving instructions to people she was paying to do things she didn't want her name directly on.He got up. Came out, and immediately she saw him, she ended the call. Then she set the phone face down on the desk."Who was that?" Ethan asked."Someone I hired to do my dirty jobs." She stood and moved to the small kitchen. Put the kettle on. "Sit down. We need to talk."He sat at the table. She made tea. Set a cup in front of him. Sat across from him with her own.He looked at her. "Morgana.""I know," she said. "You're going to tell me this is wrong.""Isn't it?"She was quiet for a moment. Looking at her cup. Then she looked up at him."Can I ask you something honestly? And you must answer sincerely," she said."Go ahead.""When we got

Chapter: Chapter 17Lumina was curled up on the sofa with a book she had been trying to finish for three weeks when her phone lit up.She picked up. "Hey.""What are you doing?""Reading.""Have you eaten?""Yes.""What did you eat?"She looked at the cold tea on the table and the empty plate she still hadn't moved from two hours ago. "Food.""Lumina.""It was a proper meal, Dylan.""What was it?""Why are you calling me to ask about my dinner?""Because the last time you told me you'd eaten properly, you had half a biscuit and called it lunch." A pause. "Come over."She looked at her book. At the cold tea. At the quiet, empty clinic below her. "It's late.""It's eight thirty.""That's late for some people.""Is it late for you?"She smiled before she could stop herself. Put the book down. "I'll be there in twenty minutes."She could hear the smile in his voice too. "I'll leave the door open."……….He was in the kitchen when she arrived. She dropped her bag by the door, walked straight to the kitchen and

Chapter: Chapter 16The next morning came quickly, with Morgana at the desk when Ethan woke up.Laptop open. Tea beside her. Notes on a pad she had been filling since three in the morning. She heard him move in the bedroom. Heard the shower run. Heard him come out. She didn't look up.He poured coffee and stood at the window looking out at the city below. Quiet for a long moment. She let him have the quiet. She was almost done anyway.She closed the laptop. Picked up her tea."Sit down," she said.He sat across from her. He looked terrible. Dark circles. Tight jaw. The face of a man who had spent the night fighting himself and lost.She had heard him moving around at two in the morning. She had staye

Chapter: Chapter 15The day of the summit finally came, and Lumina was all over the place.She almost changed her outfit four times before finally settling on the third option. A deep burgundy dress that fell to the floor in clean lines, fitted at the waist, simple at the neck. The silk hugged her figure like it had been made specifically for her, tracing every curve as she moved. It wasn't trying too hard, but the way it sat on her made her look breathtaking. Elegant. And pure heat.Mira sat on the bed watching the whole process with her arms folded and the expression of someone thoroughly enjoying every second of it."The burgundy one," Mira said."I'm wearing it, aren't I?""I'm confirming you made the right choice." Mira tilted her head. "Dylan is going to forget how to speak.""Dylan doesn't forget how to do anything.""Tonight he might." Mira stood up and walked a slow circle around her like she was assessing a piece of art. "You look incredible. Genuinely. Like something out of a dream that men wr
