WICKED PROVIDENCE Book 2
The Legend Continued...
The rejection was supposed to be her end. Instead, it was her awakening.
After the devastating fallout at the Scarlett Vale engagement, the Silver Ridge Territory is a powder keg waiting for a spark. Avery Monroe is no longer the mute trophy or the discarded wife. She is a woman reborn from the ashes of betrayal, carrying the ultimate secret: the true heirs to the Montgomery throne.
But freedom comes with a price that smells of blood and cedar.
Hudson Montgomery has finally realized that the "dormant" wolf he cast aside was the only soul capable of anchoring his primal rage. Driven to the brink of madness by the severing of their bond, he has turned from a protector into a relentless predator. He doesn't just want Avery back—he wants to cage the fire he was too blind to see. But the man who once ignored her silence now finds himself deafened by her defiance.
Standing between the hunter and his prey is Blake Donovan. The rival Alpha didn't just find Avery’s wreckage; he found his match. As Blake offers Avery the sanctuary of the Donovan lands, a feverish, erotic war of dominance begins. He wants to heal her, to claim her, and to raise her pups as his own—an act of ultimate defiance that would strip Hudson of his legacy forever.
The Hunt is On. The Pack is Divided. The Mother is Lethal.
Inside the Pages of Book 2:
"You think a Mate-Contract is what tied me to you?" Hudson’s growl is a low, vibrating threat against the shell of her ear as he corners her in the shadows of the neutral grove. His scent—pine and storm-clouds—is an intoxicating suffocant. "I am your Alpha, Avery. Your skin remembers my touch, and your wolf... your wolf

Chapter: 15Avery’s amber eyes narrowed, the golden flecks within them shimmering with a sudden, sharp calculation. Hudson? How was that possible? A thick fog of confusion settled over her. Given the Montgomery Alpha’s obsessive need for privacy and his current precarious standing with the High Council, why would he ever submit to a public broadcast? Was the pack in more danger than he let on?Without a word, Avery intercepted the communication tablet from Madison’s small paws to scrutinize the feed. She let out a long, shuddering breath of relief. It wasn’t a formal herald interview; it was a jagged, grainy live stream captured from a voyeuristic angle.Someone had hidden a recording crystal near the heavy oak frame of Hudson’s private study, covertly capturing the Alpha at his desk. Ferocious comments from sub-packs across the territory were clawing at the screen.“By the Mother Moon! Look at those shoulders... he smells of pure dominance even through a crystal. Such a shame he keeps his face b

Chapter: 14Through her tears, Jenny’s voice wavered with a calculated, high-pitched indignation that broadcasted through the crystal's glow. “The new Luna of this guild? She is a female, a mother of the pack. I thought her spirit would be compassionate toward a lone guardian. But no, she chose to hunt me in the open. How can one sister of the moon treat another with such bloodlust?”Avery’s amber eyes sparked with a lethal fury as she retorted, her voice cutting through the digital noise like a silver blade. “Who has behaved disgracefully here? Pointing a surveillance crystal at another’s face without a challenge? Who truly seeks to use the pack's sympathy to bully those in power?”Jenny snarled, adjusting her grip on the crystal. “Had your claws not reached for my throat, I would not have bared my teeth in return.”Facing the glowing lens with a chilling calm, Avery addressed the thousands of watching wolves. “Let us clear the scent of this air. Today, I requested a parley with Miss Patterson,

Chapter: 13Jenny’s feral snarl turned into a jagged grin. "Don’t test the patience of the Silver Ridge, stray. I’ve already retracted my claws once. You should be teaching your pup how to respect the hierarchy, unless you want her to grow up as stunted and cursed as you!" she spat, her voice carrying across the rocky shore.The surrounding Montgomery pack members began to huff in collective disapproval. "You're being an omen of discord," one Enforcer grunted at Avery."I can't believe a female with such high-tier furs could be so heartless to an orphan," a nursing mother whispered."Thank the Great Wolf that Jenny is here to protect the weak, or Craig would have been mauled by this outsider today."Avery absorbed the vitriol of the pack without flickering an eyelid. As the howling murmurs died down, she locked eyes with Jenny and the boy, her lips curling into a lethal smile. "Trying to scent-mark my daughter as a fraud? It so happens I recorded her shaping the silt with my communication crystal

Chapter: 12While Avery was submerged in the heavy currents of her thoughts, Madison was blissfully detached from the machinations of the high-ranking, joyfully engaging with other pups by the shoreline of the Silver Lake. They were building miniature dens in the wet silt with frantic, dirt-stained enthusiasm.“Mommy! Mommy!” Madison scrambled over, her small paw clutching Avery’s hand, excitement shimmering in her wide eyes. “Look at my fortress! Isn’t it a stronghold? All the other pups say my wolf has the best instinct!”Avery glanced down, her breath catching in her throat. Madison had constructed a mud-replica remarkably similar to the hidden sanctuary they once inhabited in the Eastern Marches. While not a mirror image, the architectural flow was hauntingly familiar.“You are a true daughter of the Ridge,” Avery praised, masking her shock as she smoothed Madison’s tangled hair. “Does the image of our old den still run in your blood?”“Yes!” Madison replied, her tail-equivalent wagging in he

Chapter: 11Stan’s predatory sneer dissolved into a mask of pure bewilderment. He shook his head, the fur on his neck bristling. “Is that truly your kin? But the scent... the age...”Even with the obsidian mask shielding Hudson’s features, his stance radiated the vitality of a wolf in his prime. He lacked the weathered musk of a male nearing his fortieth winter.Anna’s gaze swept across the high stone of the assembly, freezing and dismissive. The suspicious growls of the pack didn't make her flinch. “I do not owe a drop of proof to this rabble,” she stated with chilling authority. “This is my brother, the Lord Lando of the Wastes. Shall we draw blood for a lineage test now, or will you accept the word of a Watts?”The clearing fell into a tomb-like silence. No wolf dared to challenge the daughter of the North. Crossing Anna meant inviting the wrath of the black markets and the international heralds—a social death sentence for any pack.Hudson glanced at Anna, his brow furrowing beneath the leathe

Chapter: 10Ethan released a jagged breath, his voice vibrating with a grief that smelled of old, wet earth. “Joanna, when I marked our scrolls and joined our bloodlines, my only prayer was for a den of peace. But you have never trusted my wolf. I once held a true bond for you—do you truly not believe that?”The raw honesty in that single admission nearly shattered Joanna’s poise. A phantom pang of remorse clawed at her gut. Perhaps she could have hunted a different path. Yet, the blood had already been spilled; the bridge to the Silver Ridge was ash, and there was no scent to lead her back.Joanna armored her heart and snarled, “Don’t think your pup-talk can blind me! I see the shift in the wind. I am no omega to be fooled. You and Avery Monroe are knotted in a secret affair, aren't you? It matters not. She will bleed for her transgressions soon enough.”Severing the link, Joanna swiftly flicked a message to Ethan—a digital pulse containing a hidden surveillance clip. Within heartbeats, Ethan’s

WICKED PROVIDENCE
Labeled a "Dormant Omen" and sold into a Mate-Contract to the lethal Alpha of the Montgomery Pack, Avery has spent years as a shadow in Hudson Montgomery’s glittering, cruel world. She was the mute trophy, the wife who couldn't shift, the girl who loved a man who only saw her as a political necessity.
But when Hudson’s favored mistress returns and the pack turns its teeth toward her, Avery realizes that staying in the Silver Ridge will cost her more than just her pride—it will cost her the secret life growing inside her.
One final signature. One last look. One clean break.
"You want your freedom, Avery?" Hudson’s voice was a low, terrifying vibration against her skin, his hand bruising the small of her back. "Sign the scroll. Walk out of my den. But remember—once the bond is severed, I stop being your protector. I become your hunter."
Avery’s fingers flashed in the flickering torchlight, her eyes burning with a defiance he’d never seen. I would rather be hunted in the wild than forgotten in your bed.
The pain is a jagged blade. The divorce is a death sentence. But the hunger... the hunger is a fever.
As the Silver Ridge teeters on the brink of war, Hudson realizes too late that the quiet girl he discarded wasn't a sheep—she was the moon that held his tides in check. Now, he’ll tear the world apart to reclaim her, but Avery is no longer playing by his rules.

Chapter: 144The mocking laughter of the Montgomery sycophants grew harsher. Several high-ranking lupines looked at Avery as if she were a rogue found scavenging in their trash."It turns the stomach to share the same scent-space with a pup-thief and her exile mother.""Can the Enforcers not drag them out of the Silver Ridge before they stain the floors?"Paying no heed to the taunts of the clueless onlookers, Avery calmly pulled out her communication stone. She flicked through the projection album until she found the digital Blood-Seal certificate for an emerald-encrusted torque she had recently acquired. The document verified a purchase price that tripled the value of the trinket Evelyn was flaunting.Avery raised her voice, the resonance of a natural leader silencing the room. "The authentication rune on this seal is registered with the High Council. If you doubt the wealth of my house, verify it here and now. My wolf does not need to growl over scraps."Avery presented the shimmering projectio

Chapter: `143Exhausted, Avery Monroe collapsed onto the heavy furs of the sofa.Miranda Shaw, having completed the patrol of the silver-lined perimeter, returned to the sanctum. She couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for Avery’s ragged scent. “Avery, I know the Alpha-strain is heavy, but if you let your spirit break, Madison will catch the scent of your fear,” Miranda remarked, referring to Avery’s young pup.Avery inhaled deeply, the smell of pine and old parchment filling her lungs. “You’re right. But how can I possibly maintain my dominance with Tyrone missing and the trackers finding nothing but cold stone?”Miranda placed a thick, wax-sealed envelope on the low table. “A messenger brought this. Please, look at it, then surrender to the sleep of the moon.”With a slight frown, Avery broke the seal. Inside was a heavy card embossed with the crest of the Martel Pack. They were requesting the "High Sovereign of the Trade-Halls" to attend their Great Lunar Banquet.This left Avery feeling p

Chapter: 142The scent of blood and sweat in the Apex Suite was suffocating. Avery’s face went bone-pale; she hadn't anticipated Madison would be so feral. The sanctum quickly descended into a blur of fur and fangs.Despite having her own elite pack-guards, Avery found them overwhelmed by the sheer number of Madison’s frenzied followers. In the chaos, a rogue wolf seized the opportunity to lunge at Avery, grabbing her by the hair with a snarl, intending to drag her from the wheelchair to the cold stone floor.Avery struggled, her muscles coiling as she was yanked down. Though her mending legs made standing impossible, her years of survival training took over. Even from the floor, she used her leverage to disable several attackers, her strikes precise and lethal despite the disadvantage.The situation was spiraling toward a massacre.

Chapter: 141Madison Clarke—Grant Lawson’s intended mate—snarled with a misplaced confidence. "The scent doesn't lie, Charlotte. I came here to drag this stray out by her throat. She thinks she can bewitch my Alpha and claim my throne? I’ll strip her of her dignity before the whole territory. We’ve hunted together before; trust my instincts. Whether you join the cull or watch from the sidelines is your choice."Invigorated by her own malice, Madison activated her scrying-orb to begin a live-stream. She had recently carved out a reputation as a "Lunar Influencer" among the lesser packs, and within sixty seconds, tens of thousands of wolves tuned in. The header of her stream was bloodthirsty: “Exposing the Omega harlot trying to steal the Lawson bloodline. Watch her crumble!”Even those outside the Silver Ridge Territory flooded the channel, hungry for the drama of a high-ranking mate-feud.Once the viewership peaked, Madison began to squeeze out performative tears.

Chapter: 140At that moment, through the heavy iron-reinforced door of the Second Sanctum, Grant’s intended mate caught a glimpse of him exiting the Apex Suite. Her claws flexed, digging into her palms in silent fury. Her eyes burned with a predatory yellow glint, and her voice dropped to a lethal chill.“I knew it. Grant bypassed my chamber specifically because he was shielding that stray in the high seat.”She turned to her steward, her upper lip curling. “Have you tracked down the scavenger I commanded you to find?”The steward gave a stiff, subservient nod. “The scent is laid, Mistress. Everything is prepared. By the time the moon reaches its peak, that woman’s status will be nothing but carrion.”A cruel, jagged smile spread across the woman’s face, a rare moment of dark satisfaction.“Ensure it is done.

"Why would you throw your life into the path of a transport for me?"The only answer was the sudden, dead weight of his body.The abrupt loss of his strength made Avery instinctively lock her arms around Hudson’s neck to keep from sliding. Hudson sank to his knees on the forest floor, his breath coming in ragged, wet rattles. Even in his exhaustion, his grip on her waist didn't slacken. He let out a low, guttural grunt, the thick veins in his arms bulging with the effort to keep her off the damp earth.Avery tried to pull away to check his vitals, but Hudson slumped forward, losing consciousness entirely.She was paralyzed for a heartbeat before her hands began to tremble.

The Rejected Luna’s Revenge:THE VAUGHN REIGN BOOK 2
The Rejected Luna’s Revenge: Six Alphas and a Secret Pregnancy
Book 2: The Sovereign Queen’s Coronation
The bond is severed. The secrets are out. And the Northlands are about to burn.
After surviving three years of cold rejection and a brutal exile, Sierra Vaughn is no longer the "wolfless" Omega of the Steele Pack. Returned to her true throne as the Lunar Heiress, she is shielded by the Vaughn Circle—six elite Alpha brothers who have turned their collective power into a shield for her and her unborn twins.
While Landon and Miles begin the surgical dismantling of Steele Industries, and Dr. Aaron monitors the staggering power of the pups growing within her, Sierra is forced to navigate the treacherous political waters of the Great-Packs. No longer a submissive wife, she must reclaim her voice and her strength, transforming her misunderstood power into a weapon that will unite the ancient territories.
But across the border, Cameron Steele is falling apart. The Severance he thought would set him free has instead left a void that no high-ranking mate can fill. As the truth of Sierra’s heritage—and her pregnancy—leaks through the Steele Pack’s crumbling defenses, Cameron’s regret turns into a feral obsession. He didn't just throw away a wife; he discarded the Sovereign of the North.
Lexi Hart’s lies are being dismantled brick by brick, but a cornered wolf is the most dangerous. As Lexi plots a final, desperate act of sabotage to maintain her stolen status, Cameron prepares to go to war against the Vaughn Circle to reclaim the mate he betrayed.
He is desperate to apologize. He is starving for her scent. But to reach Sierra, Cameron won't just have to face her brothers—he’ll have to face the Queen she has become.

"It’s out of your way, nowhere near the Steele Industries district. I’ll manage on my own.""What a twist of fate! I actually have an appointment at the academy gates myself.

"You think I don’t know you’ve been using the Vaughn name to clear your debts across the Northern territories?"I stood in the center of the room, my skin crawling as the woman—Julian’s supposed 'flame'—shrank back. The predatory fire she’d shown me earlier had vanished, replaced by a cold, hollow terror."If you want to walk out of here without being hunted by the High Council," Julian continued, his voice dropping to a lethal whisper, "you will leave this territory tonight. If I catch scent of you near Sierra again, the next guest at your door won't be a messenger. it will be a Vaughn executioner."The woman scrambled to her feet, her expensive furs dragging on the floor as she hauled her luggage toward the exit.

He’d barely found a window to journey to the Northlands, but now that he’d carved out the time, he wasn't about to waste it.Among the six brothers of the Vaughn Circle, Sierra felt a unique, quiet distance with Julian and Cole. Cole, the elite attorney, had stepped in once before when some Steele socialites tried to frame her for theft, but they moved in such different worlds.As for Julian, his presence was overwhelming in a different way.

I couldn't exactly confess to Aaron that Lexi had branded me a predator in the middle of a hospital, could I?Aaron let out a long, heavy breath, his shoulders finally dropping. It seemed my vague answer satisfied him, easing the worry that Lexi had pried too deep into our history."Aaron, do you actually know Lexi Hart?" I asked suddenly, watching his profile in the dim light of the dashboard.Aaron swallowed, his grip on the wheel tightening. "I've crossed paths with her a few times within the healing wards. Her family has influence in the medical circles."I nodded slowly. It made sense. With her brother being a high-ranking surgeon, their scents were bound to mingle in those halls eventually.

"You aren’t fit to lick Aaron’s boots, let alone stand by his side. Stop living in a dream. An omega like you doesn't belong in a Vaughn’s orbit."I tilted my head, a cold smile touching my lips. There it was again. That same arrogant cadence."You sound just like Cameron," I mused. "He had the same theory about me and the Healer not being a 'compatible match.'"The irony was delicious. They all thought I was trying to seduce my own blood. They saw a romance where there was only a lineage they couldn't touch. If they wanted to believe I was chasing a forbidden mate, let them. It was a cleaner lie than the truth."I’m not playing games, Sierra," Lexi snapped. "I’ll speak to Aaron myself. I’ll make sure he knows exactly what kind of stray you are. Then we'll

The Rejected Luna’s Revenge: Six Alphas and a Secret Pregnan
He broke the bond. Now, her brothers will break his empire.
Sierra Vaughn was the Steele Pack’s best-kept secret—a "wolfless" Omega who served her Alpha husband, Cameron Steele, with a quiet, devastating devotion. For three years, she endured his cold stares and the pack’s whispered insults, all for the sake of a fated match he refused to acknowledge.
But the night she finally discovers she’s carrying his heirs—twins with a scent more powerful than any Alpha in history—Cameron delivers a killing blow. He demands a Severance of the Mate Bond to marry a "worthy" high-ranker, Lexi Hart.
Left for dead and exiled into the winter wilderness, Cameron expects Sierra to fade into a memory. Instead, he ignites a war.
Because Sierra Vaughn isn’t an Omega. She is the True Lunar Heiress of the legendary Vaughn Circle—the most ancient, lethal, and wealthy Great-Pack in the Northlands. And she has six overprotective Alpha brothers who have been waiting for the moment she finally comes home.
Landon, the Real Estate Titan, who builds her a fortress.
Miles, the Tech Genius, who silences Cameron’s communications.
Dr. Aaron, the Healer, who vows to keep her and her pups safe at any cost.
Julian, Cole, and Ryder, who use their fame and power to dismantle the Steele Pack’s reputation, brick by bloody brick.
As Sierra transforms from a discarded wife into a Sovereign Queen, her scent becomes an intoxicating drug that Cameron can no longer ignore. He’s feral with regret, desperate to reclaim the mate he threw away.
But Sierra is no longer a submissive wolf. She’s a Vaughn. And if Cameron wants a second chance, he’ll have to crawl through a gauntlet of ten protective Alphas just to catch a glimpse of the throne

His voice dropped to a low, dangerous rumble that vibrated in the air between us. "Sierra Vaughn, I have no interest in your clandestine private life, but do not forget whose sanctuary this is. This is the medical wing where Naomi is fighting for her life. Have you no shame? Have you never considered the fallout if she catches you in the arms of another wolf while her scent is still fading from our home?"I swallowed the bitter taste of his hypocrisy, gripping the tray of fruit until my knuckles turned white.

"But any tether between Cameron Steele and me has been severed for good."Still, a nagging question tugged at my intuition. Why had Cameron suddenly rejected Lexi Hart?
