The Alpha’s Shadow Luna
Leah gave him everything, her trust, her heart, even the future she thought they would share. But Shane's smiles always found her sister, Mary, and the man Leah loved never loved her back. Broken and humiliated, she leaves to the ruthless Northwind Pack, determined to bury the past and build a life where no one can make her feel invisible again.
What she doesn't expect is Darien.
Cold, dangerous, and the Alpha's advisor, Darien is nothing like the wolves she's known. He sees through her walls with unnerving precision, challenges her at every turn, and refuses to let her fade into the background. But Darien carries secrets of his own, and the pull he feels toward Leah doesn't fit into his carefully laid plans.
Caught between a bond she never asked for and a destiny she doesn't understand, Leah must decide: will she guard her heart behind the walls she built to keep her safe, or will she embrace the power rising within her and become the wolf she was always meant to be?
In the North, not everything is what it seems. The Northwind Pack remembers its legends, and some bloodlines refuse to stay buried.

Chapter: Chapter 140KeanuNight fell and the forest changed. Tempest said we can’t travel at night and will have to wait until daylight to leave.The canopy blocked most of the starlight, but what filtered through turned everything silver and shadow. The spring beside us caught the glow and held it, changing the water into a ribbon of liquid moonlight. The temperature dropped, the way it does in old forests where the trees hold the cold close to the ground, but I didn’t feel it. The heat beneath my skin was running hotter than it had all day.Tempest had built a small fire. Not with matches. She’d placed her palm against the kindling and it had caught, a flicker of heat that came from her hand like the most natural thing in the world. I’d watched her do it and said nothing. She’d told me to keep her secret and I would. I wondered what she was though.We sat on opposite sides of the fire, the prepared cure cooling in a sealed container between us. The noctis bloom paste had reduced properly. Dark, thick,

Chapter: Chapter 139Keanu“Why do you need noctis bloom?”I didn’t have a reason to lie. And honestly, looking at her face, I wasn’t sure I could have managed one if I’d tried. Something about her made the usual deflections feel cheap.“My sister is sick. A virus she picked up in a place saturated with dark magic. It’s parasitic. Feeds on her powers. The healers said the noctis bloom can cure it, but it has to be prepared properly.”“Your sister.” She studied me. “You came into a forest full of feral creatures to find a plant for your sister.”“I’d walk into a volcano for my sister.”“That’s either very brav

Chapter: Chapter 138KeanuThe forest was old.The trees here were massive, their trunks wider than cars, their canopies so dense that the sunlight filtering through looked like it had been chewed up and spit out in thin, golden threads. The undergrowth was thick with ferns and moss that covered everything in a carpet of green so vivid it almost looked fake. The air smelled like wet soil and flowers and something underneath it, something ancient that had no name but made the hairs on my arms stand up.I’d been walking for hours.Cain’s maps were good. He’d marked the likely growth zones for the noctis bloom in red ink, with notes about terrain, water sources, and the “feral supernatural creatures” that populated the deeper part of the forest. His handwriting was surprisingly neat for a man who could crush a skull with one hand. I appreciated the effort. What I didn’t appreciate was the footnote at the bottom of the final map page: Don’t do anything stupid. — CainHelpful.I scratched the back of my ear. T

Chapter: Chapter 137LeahKeanu met his eyes. Something passed between them. Not spoken but understood. The agreement that had been building since the moment Keanu called Darien about the virus. One stays. One goes.“I’m going to stay with Leah,” Darien said. “You fly to the forest, find the noctis bloom, and bring it back.”Keanu nodded. No hesitation. He’d been waiting for this. He wouldn’t have left before Darien came home, wouldn’t have taken even a single step out of the kingdom without knowing that the man who would die for his sister was at her side. But now Darien was here. And the path was clear.“I’ll find it,” Keanu said. “Take care of her.”“With my life.”

Chapter: Chapter 136 LeahI heard him before I saw him.The sound of running on stone, fast, taking the stairs two at a time. The guards in the corridor snapping to attention. A door opening down the hall and someone calling “Your Majesty” before being cut off by footsteps that didn’t slow.Then our bedroom door swung open.Darien stood in the frame, windswept from being in a hurry, his jacket still on, his tie missing entirely, his silver eyes sweeping the room until they found me on the bed, where Keanu had confined me with strict orders not to move.He crossed the room in a few strides. His arms were around me before I could say a word, pulling me against his chest, one hand cradling the back of my head, the other wrapped around my waist so tight I could feel his heartbeat against my ribs. He buried his face in my hair and breathed in like he’d been holding his breath for days and this was the first air that counted.I held him back. Let myself sink into the warmth of him, the scent of him, the overwh

Chapter: Chapter 135DarienCain was in the hallway, phone to his ear, coordinating the logistics. I could hear fragments of his conversation. Flight times. Talking points. Contingency plans. The machinery of leadership continuing to function even as the leader stepped away from the wheel. That was the thing about Cain. He might disagree with a decision, but the moment it was made, he executed it like it was his own. No hesitation. No passive resistance. Just full commitment to making the choice work, even when the choice was messy.I sat on the bed and drafted the letters to the Aldridge and Brennan pack alphas. Apologized for my absence. Explained that my mate was sick and required my immediate return. I wouldn’t lie. They deserved the truth. I assured them that my representatives carried my full authority and that the crown’s commitment to their protection w

Chapter: EpilogueThe grand ballroom of the Lycan Kingdom was wall-to-wall with every noble, dignitary, and hanger-on that the new alliance could scrape from the edges of the world.I stood at the center of it all, holding my six-month-old daughter in my arms. Lyra was heavier than she looked, which was saying something, because she was already the size of a small badger and nearly as feral when she wanted to be. She slept now, jaw slack, a little bubble of drool catching the light on her lower lip.Darren’s hand was glued to my waist, fingers splayed like he was afraid I’d be snatched away. Not that I minded. Honestly, it was better he was close, so I could keep the ogling eyes from staring at him. He looked better than he had any right to. Unlike me, who had these milk jugs attached to my chest where my perky breasts used to be.I let my gaze drift over the crowd, picking out faces I recognized and cataloging their reactions to the baby. Most were polite, some envious, a few openly terrified. Lyra did

Chapter: Chapter 134AllissaI didn’t want to do this without Darren, but I didn’t have a choice. I looked around the room at the mess left over from the fight. The windows were gone, glass scattered across the stone floor like confetti. One of the tapestries had caught fire and was now a smoldering heap in the corner, probably from where Fury’s lightning had ricocheted during the last round of magical chaos. Honestly, it was perfect for the way things have been going lately. I had to laugh about it.Eira had a damp cloth and was pressing it to my forehead. A doctor and healer were in the room with me, and the time to deliver was now.“It’s almost time to push. Ready to meet your child?”I nodded. I was, but I wished Darren was here. Was he safe? Was he in trouble? There was literally nothing I could do. I was completely vulnerable.And then, like a shockwave through my bones, I felt Darren’s mindlink smash through the agony.Ally, I’m coming. I’m racing to the room now.I sobbed out a laugh, which turned

Chapter: Chapter 133DarrenI took my best squad and left. Time was of the essence, and I didn’t know how much I had. I wanted to be back for Ally, but we couldn’t let my half uncle escape. I sent a message to my father and told him I was going after his half-brother. There was no saving him. Even if he had been brainwashed later, he had acted out of revenge before that. I ended my message with clear instructions. ‘Don’t come after me. Don’t send anyone else. If I’m not back by nightfall, burn the woods until you find my body or theirs.’We headed to the mountainous region of our territory. Sharp jagged rocks and mountainous terrain made it difficult to navigate. We shifted, since our beasts were more agile. We moved in formation, silent and perfect, each step measured to keep the noise down to a whisper.We didn’t talk. Didn’t need to. Every man here could sense what was coming, like a migraine building behind the eyes. At the front, Tim and Rodney sniffed the air, every muscle coiled. My gamma and delta

Chapter: Chapter 132AllissaEira flung herself over me, her magic a last-ditch wall of icy blue, but Angelica’s attack punched right through. The pressure slammed me to the bed, pinned me by the throat, and for one long, surreal second, everything went quiet. I saw Eira on the floor, twitching but alive, her hands clamped around her body as she writhed in pain.Another wave of gold came rushing at me and I moved to protect my unborn baby. Just when I should have been hit, the world tore sideways.A sound like a violin string being pulled and breaking ripped the air. Time exploded, a million moments shattering into a new and terrible present. There was a woman standing at the foot of the bed who hadn’t been there before. She wore nothing but blue fire and the world’s most obscene sense of confidence. Her hair was a fuse, white as the moon and long, down past her waist. Her eyes were glowing, no color at all, just light, and her smile was the kind you wear when you’re about to blow the heads off every god i

Chapter: Chapter 131AllissaI was losing the war with my own body.Every contraction hit like a meteor, atomic and intense. My knees were up, my hands curled so tight I was gouging the tender skin of my own palms. Sweat slicked my scalp, pooled in the valley of my chest, and trickled down the sides of my face in slow, traitorous lines. I wanted to hang on as long as I could. I was hoping Darren would make it back in time, but it wasn’t looking good.Eira was by my side with her cool hands and gentle whispers. She asked if I wanted the doctor, but I was in denial that I needed one already. She pressed a cold cloth to my forehead and brushed the sodden hair from my eyes. “Remember to breathe.”I wanted to ask her if she could go look for Darren, but then everything outside went wrong. The light in the room stuttered, turning faint and blue. My vision blurred, then snapped into crystal focus as the world outside the glass froze, every leaf and bird and cloud locked in a moment of impossible silence. I could

Chapter: Chapter 130LyleI looked down at the shadow that followed below us. A thunder of dragons flew around us as we headed to war. I held onto Dayanara tight … maybe tighter than was needed. I wasn’t going to back down from her without a fight. I wanted to prove to her that I wasn’t like her last mate. I would be good to her, and I would love her deeper than she has ever known or could even fathom. I wouldn’t push her to be ready, but I would be a constant in her life. Gently breaking her barriers down.“Lyle … the demons use mimics and changelings, so be careful. Don’t be deceived.” Her voice was soft as her hair brushed over my face from the wind.“You wouldn’t be worried about me, right?” I teased as I inhaled the scent from her hair.“Of course I am.” Her answer shocked me. I didn’t anticipate she would answer honestly.“Don’t worry. I’m not going to die. Who’s going to take care of you if something happens to me? My job is to be with you and to make you smile. My life is no longer my own, but your
