the alpha who chose the broken luna
Liliana Hart spent four years shrinking herself to fit the life her husband wanted.
Quiet wife, loyal mate, perfect future Luna.
Then, in a single night, everything burns to ash.
After catching her husband with another woman, Liliana plans to leave quietly. Instead, she is publicly rejected, accused of betrayal, stripped of her home, and cast out of the Blood Veil Pack with nothing but her name in ruins.
Everyone believes the lies.
Everyone except Alpha Darian Reed.
Cold, feared, and impossible to read, Darian offers her shelter beneath one condition: stay out of his business.
But the longer Liliana remains inside his mansion, the more she begins noticing the cracks beneath Blood Veil’s perfect image. Secrets buried within the council. Rumors surrounding the deaths of Darian’s parents. And a dangerous connection between her ex husband and the people desperate to control the pack.
The closer she grows to Darian, the more enemies she makes.
Then the council house burns to the ground.
Liliana is framed for the attack.
Now hunted by the same pack she once called home, Liliana must prove her innocence before the people behind the fire destroy her for good.
Because this time, they did not just break her heart.
They started a war.

Chapter: THE MAN WHO IS SUPPOSED TO DIELILIAN'S POV Marcus Vale waited beneath the Eternal Rose as if he had anticipated our arrival the entire time. The dim glow caught the silver band on his finger, verifying what had already been depicted in the photograph. Standing before us was the former Beta, thought to have perished years prior. Now, he appeared older and more unfeeling, his faint smile twisting my stomach into knots. Darian instinctively stepped in front of me. "Marcus." The man’s smile broadened. "Alpha Darian." "You were deemed dead." "True." He cast a side glance at Taryn. "At least, that’s what those wanting me gone reported." With eyes wide, Taryn exclaimed, "You were present." Marcus turned his gaze to him. "Of course I was." The tension in Taryn's face grew tighter. "I recall you." "You should." Marcus began to ascend the stairs. "Though merely a child, you held onto more than we anticipated." Adrian shifted closer, murmuring, "Stay behind me." Marcus chuckled softly. "Still playing the protector." Adri

Chapter: THE ROSE REMEMBERSLILIAN'S POV We arrived back at Blood Veil just before dawn. For the majority of the journey, there was a heavy silence, not due to a lack of inquiries, but rather because there were far too many unasked. Though we had crossed the northern border, threats still lingered, perhaps even more palpable now. Sitting next to Darian in the carriage, I looked out at the familiar trees drifting by outside. Only a few months prior, the thought of returning to Blood Veil would have filled me with apprehension. This was the place where I had faced public rejection, lost all my belongings, and been cast out onto the streets. Now, I returned with a letter from my father pressed close to my chest, a pendant belonging to my mother hanging around my neck, and a brother I had only just learned existed a few hours ago. I was no longer the same woman who had departed. Darian noticed my contemplative silence. “You’re thinking about Taryn.” I turned to him. “I’m reflecting on the woman I once was.” His

Chapter: THE ROSE BENEATH THE HOUSEMy hands shook as I extended them toward the letter. I recognized that handwriting. I had seen it among the limited documents my family preserved after my parents passed away, but encountering it now felt distinct. This was not an old note or a family archive. My father crafted these words with the awareness that one day I might come across them, anticipating that I could finally learn the truth about my family. Darian was standing next to me, observing closely yet choosing not to intervene. I broke the seal. As the paper opened, a soft crackling sound emerged, revealing my father's recognizable handwriting on the page. My dear Liliana, if you are reading this, then the unthinkable has occurred. My sight blurred instantly. I can only guess how old you will be when you stumble upon this letter. I cannot say whether I will still be alive. However, I must convey one crucial message before you accept anyone's interpretation of our narrative. Your mother and I never left you behind. A t

Chapter: THE FOUNDERS SECRETLILIAN'S POV William’s voice resonated throughout the room, composed and nearly soothing in spite of the armed wolves flanking him. My gaze fell on the dark book lying upon the stone surface. The rose that was engraved on its front appeared to vibrate slightly under the soft crimson glow emanating from the blood seal. For twenty-one years, I had received fragments of my parents' narrative. They had perished during an attack by rogue wolves. They were simply unfortunate. There was nothing that could have been done. Those were the phrases I had repeatedly heard throughout my upbringing. Yet each discovery we made dismantled another section of that narrative. My father had anticipated the threat ahead. My mother had withstood the onslaught. Adrian had been abducted. The Grey Wardens were pursued. William had orchestrated everything from behind the scenes. And now this book was said to hold the reason for my mother’s demise. I turned my attention to William. "You want me to open this

Chapter: THE BLOOD SEALLILIAN'S POV The words were completely incomprehensible. "What do you mean, our lineage isn't what everyone thought?" I inquired. Taryn’s eyes turned to Darian for a moment before settling back on me. "I’m not privy to the full story. William concealed much of it, even from the council. However, your mother uncovered something in the original documents." Adrian moved closer. "What did she find?" Taryn paused. "The first Alpha of Blood Veil was not merely an ordinary werewolf." Gabriel's face shifted instantly. "Be cautious." Taryn disregarded him. "He possessed a rare bloodline, one that vanished ages ago." My wolf stirred uneasily within me. A peculiar tightness gripped my chest, as if a part of me acknowledged the statement before my mind could grasp it. Darian recognized my reaction. "What bloodline?" Taryn shook his head. "That's the part I never found out." Adrian's fists tightened. "Then why are you wasting our time?" "Because William knows." Taryn's tone turned urgent.

Chapter:
THE PRICE OF THE TRUTHLILIAN'S POV The pendant radiated an unusual warmth against my hand. I gazed at the delicate silver rose, my eyes welling with unshed tears. This was something my mother had held, perhaps pressed to her heart. Maybe she wore it on the night that everything changed for us. The notion brought a tightness to my chest. "What was her name?" my brother quietly inquired. I shot him a puzzled look. "What did you say?" "Your mother." "Rose." His expression softened. "Rose." He spoke the name as if savoring a long-buried memory he had feared would fade. "It's been years since I last spoke her name aloud." I swallowed hard. "Do you remember her?" "Every single day." His voice trembled just a bit. "When cooking, she often sang." "She couldn’t stand storms." "And every night, she counted my fingers as I drifted off, convinced I might lose one." A broken chuckle escaped through my tears. "She did the same for me." He looked directly at me. "You recall?"

Chapter: THE MAN BEHIND THE SHADOWSEVELYN'S POV The sounds of footsteps above us ceased. Silence enveloped the room. The rhythm of my heartbeat echoed in my ears. Once. Twice. Three times. Then another noise emerged. A deliberate creaking from the floorboards overhead. Someone was shifting. Marcus lifted his weapon. "Stay behind me," he instructed. But Rhysander quickly positioned himself in front of me. I nearly voiced my objections. Then I recalled the wound he had endured from the gunshot. "You should be behind me," I murmured softly. He met my eyes."Not a chance." In spite of the circumstances, a smile almost crept onto my face. That was Rhysander for you. Determined when it counted. Protective even in his fragile state. I tightened my grip on the small brass key that Victor had entrusted to us. Three hundred and seventeen. For reasons I couldn't fully articulate, the number felt significant. My father's last hidden truth. Something he had relied on Victor to safeg

Chapter: THE WOMAN BEHIND THE SECRETRHYSANDER'S POV I was uncertain how to embrace my mother. For two decades, I had lived under the impression that nothing remained to be grasped. No reminiscences. No voice. No warmth. Just a grave that seemed unreal. Yet, here she stood before me, older than the woman etched in my memory, her gray hair framing a visage still imbued with the tenderness I had struggled to erase over the years. Her arms wrapped around me more tightly. I shut my eyes. For a fleeting instant, I was a child once more. The scent of her old perfume filled my senses. I felt her fingers tenderly weaving through my hair. And I recalled the final morning I had laid eyes on her. She kissed my forehead. She told me she loved me. Then she vanished from my existence. I gently stepped back. "Why?" That solitary word emerged shattered. My mother regarded me. "I understand." "No." I shook my head emphatically. "You don’t." "You cannot imagine what I endured." Tears wel

Chapter: THE MOTHER WHO KNEWRHYSANDER'S POVFor the first moment since uncovering the truth about my father, words escaped me.My mother was alive.Somewhere out there.And evidently, she had kept a secret for two decades.A secret tied to the murder of my grandfather.I turned my gaze toward Jonathan."You claimed she was dead."His expression grew tense."I was convinced she had passed.""That’s not what you told me.""I was informed she had died.""By whom?"He hesitated for a moment."Alexander."My fists clenched."Naturally."Everything circled back to that man.Alexander had deceived me regarding my father.He had manipulated the Bert family.He had concealed facts about my grandfather.And now, it seemed he had persuaded my father that my mother was no longer alive."Where is she?"Jonathan's eyes met mine."I don’t know."I fixed my stare on him."You mentioned she knows the truth.""She did.""Then you must have an idea of her whereabouts."Jonathan shook his head."After my disappearance, your mother

Chapter: THE LETTER HE LEFT BEHINDEVELYN'S POV The envelope lay on the floor between us.For a few long moments, there was no movement.The broken window let in the chilly air of the night, bringing with it the faint sound of tires fading away on the road.Alexander was gone.The sniper had vanished as well.Yet the envelope remained there.And it felt, in some way, more threatening than the sound of gunfire.I found myself gazing at it."Do not touch it," said Rhysander.His tone was quiet.I turned my gaze towards him."You heard what he indicated.""Yes.""Then you understand he desires us to open it.""Precisely."I cast my eyes back at the envelope.There was no name on the front.No address.Only a small mark stamped on the paper.A black circle flanked by two slender lines.That symbol seemed familiar.From my father's old business papers.I lowered myself slowly.Rhysander immediately grasped my arm."Evelyn.""I must discover what’s inside.""We cannot be certain of what Alexander placed in it.""I don't bel

Chapter: THE TRUTH ABOUT JONATHAN BERTEVELYN'S POVA second gunshot resonated through the hospital’s hallway.I instinctively edged closer to Rhysander."Stay low."Marcus burst through the door, immediately placing himself between us and the hallway."Secure the door!"A nurse hurried over and engaged the emergency lock.With a click, the door sealed shut.My heart raced uncontrollably."Who’s firing?"Marcus remained silent.He drew his gun, pressing against the wall next to the door.Outside, rapid footsteps pounded down the corridor.Then a scream pierced the air."Security!"Another gunshot followed.Rhysander attempted to rise.I instantly pressed my hand on his shoulder."Don't.""I refuse to stay in this bed while there's gunfire in the hospital.""You've only been awake for a short time.""I don’t care.""You can't even get up."His jaw clenched in frustration.He hated facing the reality of the situation.I understood his feelings.However, I wasn't going to allow him to jeopardize six months of recovery due to
