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

Chapter: 87He loomed over me, his shadow stretching across the sterile floor like a dominant Alpha asserting his territory. 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. I refused to let his scent-pressure break my composure. "I didn't come here to challenge your rank or pick a fight, Cameron. Naomi’s lunar-nerve surgery is hours away. Get out of my path."His hand shot out, his palm warm and calloused as he clamped it around my wrist. The heat of his touch was a jolt to my system, a reminder of the bond that refused to fully die.

Chapter: 86My heart nearly stopped in my chest. What in the Great-Pack was he doing here?Earlier, when Aaron mentioned he had surgical rounds in the morning, I assumed he was at the Vaughn Great-Pack’s medical fortress. I never imagined stumbling upon him in this private wing of the Northlands Clinic. Was my brother moonlighting outside our territory?Aaron looked like he had been struck by lightning when he saw me. Encountering me here was the last thing he had calculated for. He had come to conduct the final preoperative assessment on Naomi Brooks’ lunar-nerves. Given the ancient, delicate nature of her shifter-physiology, the surgery required a battery of complex tests and a flawless tactical plan.He had carved out his morning specifically for Naomi, planning to return to the Vaughn Estates by noon. Now, standing in her hospital room, his face went pale. I could see the gears turning behind his surgical mask—was this the moment his secret identity as the Northlands' top surgeon would be blo

Chapter: 85As I spoke with Gina, her eyes widened in realization. She took a breath to steady her scent, clearly absorbing the shift in dynamics. "You mean the fake heiress? The one clawing to bond with your former mate?""The very same," I replied, my gaze dropping to the floor. "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? Was he not terrified that her brother would sabotage Naomi Brooks' delicate lunar-nerve surgery out of spite? I had tried to corner him about it at the medical wing, but my brothers’ sudden arrival had cut the interrogation short."Sierra, you played that beautifully," Gina said, her voice dropping to a low, concerned rumble. "But aren't you worried about the fallout? Toying with High Alphas and their families is a dangerous game in the Northlands.""Gigi, in this world, if you aren't the hunter, you’re the prey. Even if I played the submissive omega, th

What’s on your mind?"Landon’s golden eyes caught the light, reflecting the ancient authority of the Vaughn Great-Pack. "Eva and I have been discussing the future of our line. We want you to leave Bern City. Come back to the Vaughn Estates in Nord City. Live within the protection of the inner sanctum."Eva reached across the table, her hand warm against mine. "We wouldn't leave Patricia or James behind, Sierra. The Great-Pack looks after its own. We’ll move everyone. We can transfer James to the high-rank medical wing at the Vaughn fortress. He’ll have the best healers in the Northlands."I looked at Patricia. She was staring out the window toward the Pacific Street Cafe, her expression unreadable. For a high-ranking wolf like Landon, territory was something to be conquered or traded, but for Patricia, this small corner of Bern City was her soul."I need

Chapter: 83I watched Lexi stumble out of the office, her scent a chaotic mess of desperation and fury. It was pathetic how hard she was trying to dig into things she couldn't possibly understand.Aaron remained leaning against his desk, his voice a low, steady rumble. "Lexi, some shadows aren't meant to be searched. You should focus on your own mess.""Don't patronize me, Aaron!" she snapped, her eyes brimming with forced tears. "Falsehoods don't last, you say? My life isn't a lie! But the way you and Landon are treating me... it's like I’m a rogue wolf. You’re pushing me to sign an adoption termination? After a decade of being a Vaughn?"Aaron’s expression didn't flicker. We had planned to wait until her failed binding ceremony was over to sever the tie, but her recent stunts had accelerated the timeline. "I have no comment for you, Lexi.

"Lexi... you said you were a pure-blood heiress who’d never been touched by another Alpha. These files... they show multiple procedures at a rogue clinic. You never mentioned these 'complications.'"Pauline and Lexi Hart were plunged into a sudden, frantic panic. They hadn't expected me to have the Vaughn Circle's resources to dig up their buried secrets.Lexi immediately snarled, her eyes flashing a desperate, fake amber. "These are fakes! Forged by a jealous relic!""Exactly! It’s a smear campaign!" Pauline barked, trying to reclaim her dignity. "Lexi is carrying a future Alpha of the Bowen line.

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: 70Sadie’s voice dropped to a barely audible murmur, a flush of heat rising under her collar. “Yes... she is my Alpha mother. But do not speak of this to the elders yet. Just get here.”Meanwhile, back in the master quarters, Madison had summoned the senior omegas to apply ice-cold compresses to Avery’s burning skin, but the fever resisted all standard remedies.By the time Blake arrived and forced the medical team to move her, Avery’s condition had deteriorated far beyond a simple chill. The virus had bypassed her immune system, settling deep within her lungs.As the pack nurse adjusted the heavy silver IV line feeding synthetic nutrients into Avery’s arm, she couldn’t help but look at Blake with a critical eye. “If you noticed her pack scent altering days ago, you should have brought her to the clinic immediately. Allowing an Alpha’s fever to settle in the lungs endangers the whole territory. You are showing very poor instincts for a mate-candidate. Did you not perceive how compromised

Chapter: 69“I am no certified pack physician,” Lacey snapped, her scent turning sharp with defensive pride as she pulled her hand back. “My knowledge comes from the old ways, from surviving the border skirmishes. If you want the pristine clinics of the capital packs, you will not find that caliber of luxury here.”Hudson held her gaze for a brief moment, his inner wolf remaining perfectly calm. He had not intended to question her capabilities, but he saw no need to offer a lengthy explanation to a defensive healer. Without a word, he accepted the wooden bowl, tilted his head back, and swallowed the bitter liquid in three large gulps.Poison was the least of his concerns. Had this rogue enclave wanted to harvest his organs or surrender his body to the border mafia for a bounty, they would never have expended their rare medicinal herbs to knit his chest back together.Lacey stood perfectly still, her eyes tracking the movement of his throat until the bowl was completely empty.

Chapter: 68Alpha Avery," Dr. Ryan Mercer said, stepping out of the intensive care unit with a heavy sigh. "The pup has sustained severe internal trauma. She was struck with significant force—likely a heavy kick to the abdomen from a fully transformed wolf. We are currently monitoring the internal bleeding. Worse still, the growth-inhibiting potions have severely compromised her immune system and suppressed her inner wolf."Seeing the desperation turning Avery's eyes wild, the doctor quickly added, "Rest assured, the pack medical team will do everything within our power to stabilize her."Avery’s vision blurred, the weight of the pack's survival pressing heavily on her chest. For the next three days, she refused to touch any meat or water, remaining locked in the medical room by Sadie’s side. The surgery to repair Sadie's internal organs had been successful, but the pup remained in a deep, magic-induced coma.While she watched over her daughter, Avery kept her mind linked to her tracking pack.

"Step away from Sadie."Delaney Cross spun around, her bloodied claws retracting slightly as she stared at Hudson. He stood on the slick stone of the cave shore, a silver-tipped blade pressed firmly against Madison Clarke's throat. The young beta female’s scent was saturated with sheer terror."Please," Madison whimpered, her wide eyes locked onto Delaney. "Alpha, save me.""Such a pathetic excuse for a wolf," Delaney snorted coldly, tossing a contemptuous glance toward Hudson. "Slay her if it pleases you, Hudson. Her bloodline means nothing to me. Do you honestly think I care about a broken beta?"Madison gasped, staring at Delaney in shattered disbelief. Her misplaced loyalty to the rogue faction had just cost her everything.With a look of profound disgust, Hudson shoved Madison away.

They either smashed her comm-link or dropped it in the deep rapids of the Scarlett Vale. We need to mobilize the vanguard right now. If we storm the border, we can cut off their convoy before they reach the high crags!""No, we can't risk a full pack-war without knowing her exact location," Avery countered, a bitter winter chill seeping into her limbs as she forced her racing thoughts into alignment.

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.

Chapter: 30The scent of pine and sterile herbs filled the private medical wing of the Steele Pack. Cameron lingered by the window, his golden eyes flickering with a possessive heat as he watched Sierra sleep. Her face, usually so guarded and calm, looked fragile against the furs of the clinic bed."Jonah," Cameron rumbled, his voice low like distant thunder. "See to it that every herb and tonic the healer ordered is sourced from the Vaughn territories if necessary. I want the best."Jonah Price, the Steele informant who usually moved like a shadow, placed Sierra’s leather satchel on the table. "Understood, Alpha."As Jonah slipped out, the sudden trill of a communication crystal echoed from Sierra’s bag. Cameron’s brow darkened. He reached into the bag and pulled out the glowing stone. The rune shimmering on the surface read: Claudie.Who in the Northlands is Claudie? Cameron wondered, his wolf pacing beneath his skin. He swiped the rune to answer."Sierra?

I couldn't wrap my mind around the fact that Lexi was suggesting I had made the first move on the very man who had discarded me!My wolf paced with sudden agitation as my anger surged. I stepped directly into Cameron Steele’s personal space. With one brow arched, he watched me approach, a flicker of dark amusement dancing in his amber eyes.In one swift motion, I grabbed the loosened tie around his throat and pulled him flush against my chest, staring Lexi down with a defiant glare."Regardless of who initiated the contact, Cameron and I are bound by a legal pack union. Sharing a kiss behind this curtain doesn't constitute a violation of pack law. It’s perfectly legal, isn't it?" I asserted, my voice echoing in the hollow hall.Cameron met my gaze a

I’d retreated to a secluded wing of the academy’s stone halls, seeking a hollow chamber where the air felt still. My fingers found the cold keys of an old piano, and as I pressed down, the melody of a Vaughn nursery rhyme—a song from the days before I was stolen—began to bleed into the room.It was my anchor. While the other high-bloods practiced their war-hymns, I played the quiet lullaby of a true heiress.Across the corridor, Lexi Hart froze. The fake Vaughn princess, who had built her life on a stolen name, felt her wolf pace nervously within her. That melody was a ghost she couldn't outrun."Did you hear that?"

Cole Vaughn didn't just negotiate; he hunted.It seemed I had truly finally pushed the boundaries of our old life.Back in the glass towers of Steele Industries, Cole Vaughn adjusted his glasses, his scent of old parchment and cold rain filling the office. He knew my brother Landon had been right—I didn't want a single scrap of Steele fur or a drop of their industrial wealth.But as a Vaughn, and an elite attorney, Cole understood that assets were the only thing Alphas like Cameron respected. If he was going to discard a Vaughn princess, he would bleed gold for the insult."The specifics are irrelevant, Steele," Cole said, his voice as sharp as a silver blade.

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.

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.

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.
