The Alpha My Sister Wanted
Aurora Vale was sent away from Black Moon Ridge before her wolf ever had the chance to wake.
Seven years later, she returns home three weeks before her eighteenth birthday, still unshifted, still unwanted, and still treated like the family disappointment.
Her older sister, Vivian, has everything Aurora never did: beauty, admiration, power, and a future beside Ezra Blackthorn, the Alpha heir. Ezra has belonged to Vivian since they were children. Everyone in the pack knows it. Everyone expects him to make Vivian his Luna.
But the moment Aurora comes home, something changes.
Ezra smells different.
Her sleeping wolf stirs for the first time in years.
And the future Alpha looks at her like he knows exactly what is happening, even if Aurora does not.
As Vivian’s Luna presentation draws closer, old secrets begin to surface. Why was Aurora really sent away? Why does Victor Vale treat her like a mistake? And why does Black Moon Ridge seem to wake the moment she returns?
Aurora was never meant to threaten her sister’s future.
But some bonds cannot be buried.

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred & Sixty-One: Something We FixedBy midday, the south wing had doors again.Not all of them.Three still leaned against the corridor wall waiting for hinges, and someone had painted a large red cross over the room where the ceiling was still unsafe. But twelve rooms had been cleared.Nine had beds.Seven had families waiting.Vivian stood in the middle of the corridor with a key ring in one hand and three lists in the other.“You’re smiling,” I said.“I am not.”“You are.”“I have keys.”“That is apparently very exciting.”“It is when people have been sleeping on floors.”Fair.Workers moved around us carrying folded blankets, small tables and whatever furniture had survived the attack. The air smelled of sawdust and fresh plaster instead of smoke.Maren came through the open doorway behind us, hair tied back and sleeves rolled to her forearms.Her eyes moved over the repaired wall, the windows and the stack of bedding near room four.“How many are moving in?”“Seven households today,” Vivian said. “More tomorrow if

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred & Sixty: The Record That Does Not BelongThe old stable office still smelled faintly of leather.Vivian noticed the shelves before I noticed the dust.“Those are not organised.”I looked at the rows of books along the wall.“They look organised.”“They’re arranged by size.”“That counts.”“No.”I let her have it.The transport duty books occupied the bottom shelf. Vivian checked the dates while I pulled out anything covering the week before the attack.The third ledger gave u

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred & Fifty-Nine: What Left the RidgeThe first thing I noticed was the bread.Not because there was more of it.Because nobody was arguing over it.The morning line outside the kitchens still reached into the corridor, but it moved. Wolves collected their allocations, stepped aside and made room for the next family instead of waiting to hear there might not be enough.A woman I recognised from the infirmary passed me carrying two wrapped loaves and a small sack against her hip.Her son followed with another sack clutched in both arms. It was clearly too heavy for him, but he looked so pleased with himself that his mother let him keep carrying it.Hesper appeared in the kitchen doorway.“They counted the families today.”“The ones eating at the infirmary?”“All of them.”I watched the boy shuffle after his mother.Yesterday, those families had not existed on the request unless someone was injured.Today they had breakfast.Ilvane stirred beneath my skin, warm and quiet.Vivian found me still standing there.“You’re starin

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred & Fifty-Eight: What I Hand OverEzra’s POVBy midday, I had four people waiting outside the council room and six pieces of paper in front of me that apparently required the Alpha’s decision.I had read three.I understood two.The sixth appeared to concern roof tiles.I looked at Ronan.“Why am I deciding roof tiles?”He took the page.“You’re not.”“It says Alpha approval.”“That is because the old process says anything above the second expenditure threshold needs it.”

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred & Fifty-Seven: The Work Nobody SeesMaren found me in the western stores before breakfast.I was standing between two half-empty shelving rows with a stock sheet in one hand and absolutely no idea what I was looking at.She stopped beside me.“You look concerned.”“I’m counting flour.”“That explains it.”I looked at her.She almost smiled.Almost.Darius had been gone three days.Sometimes I forgot for several minutes.Then something small happened.Maren turned towards a doorway expecting him to appear.A chair stayed empty.And the whole pack remembered again.I looked back at the page.“Ronan said supplies were moved before the fires.”“Yes.”“Ezra is tracing the authorisations.”“And you?”“Hesper says the infirmary needs more food.”Maren waited.I frowned at her.“What?”“Nothing.”“You’re doing the thing.”“What thing?”“The thing where you wait until I realise there is something you could have told me immediately.”Her mouth moved.“It is an effective teaching method.”“It is irritating.”“So is leadership.”I

Chapter: Chapter One Hundred & Fifty-Six: We Stay HereEzra’s POVI found Aurora outside the council room.She was leaning against the wall with her arms folded, staring at nothing.That usually meant she was thinking.Today it looked more like she had been handed something she did not know where to put.I stopped in front of her.“Cassian?”Her eyes lifted.“Yes.”I waited.She pushed away from the wall.“He’s remembering Victor.”I went still.“How much?”“Not everything. Pieces.”Her arms tightened around herself.“He remembers Mum before Victor. He remembers enough to know Victor was there when she was taken from him.”Corvain came forward immediately.I opened the council-room door.Aurora followed me inside.Maps covered half the table. Reports covered the other half. Someone had added another stack while I was gone.Apparently becoming Alpha meant paper reproduced when nobody was looking.Aurora sat on the edge of the table.“He said when he came here, he knew Victor’s name and face. But he didn’t recognise him as the man from thos

Twin Alphas' Rare Luna
She signed a contract to marry one Alpha.
Her wolf chose both twins.
Myla has spent her life surviving by being useful, obedient and easy to manage. When she agrees to become Alec’s contracted Luna, the terms seem simple: secure an alliance, leave Bloodstone Ridge behind and build a stable life inside Crimson River.
Then her wolf recognises Alec, the controlled Alpha she married.
And Sebastian, his warmer but no less dangerous twin.
A mate bond is supposed to choose one. Myla’s chooses both.
Alec is the husband bound to her by duty and vow. Seb is the man the contract has no place for, but the bond refuses to release. As the three of them grow closer, the secrets buried in Myla’s past begin to surface. The mark hidden beneath her hair belongs to a bloodline the wolf world believed extinct, and the Wolf Council fears what her impossible bond could become.
The Alpha who raised her knows the truth. He also knows how to turn entire packs against Crimson River until protecting Myla becomes too costly.
To save the first home she has ever chosen, Myla may have to leave the two men who finally chose her.
But fate is not asking her to choose between the twins.
It is asking whether she will finally choose herself.

Chapter: Chapter Ninety-Two: Within ReachAlecAlec woke before the room brightened.Myla lay between him and Seb, one hand curled against Alec’s chest. Seb’s arm remained around her waist, his bandaged forearm resting above Alec’s where they met across her.Neither of them had moved far during the night.Alec watched the slow rise of her ribs.He had counted her breaths at the warden’s hut. His body continued the task now, as if the danger might return if he stopped.Seb opened his eyes.“She warm?” he whispered.Alec touched the back of his fingers to her cheek. “Yes.”“Fever?”“No.”Myla’s eyes opened.She looked at Alec, then turned enough to find Seb.“You are both staring.”“You stopped moving,” Seb said.“I was asleep.”“We noticed.”Myla began to sit up.Both men moved at once.Seb supported her back while Alec steadied her injured shoulder. She paused halfway upright and looked down at their hands.“I can move by myself.”“Then move slowly,” Alec said.She sat with the blanket gathered around her. Her hair had dried

Chapter: Chapter Ninety-One: The Space Between ThemMylaThe door closed behind all three of them.Myla took two steps before her knees gave way.Seb caught her around the waist. Alec set the tea aside and reached them before she could touch the floor."I am fine," she said."You have used that word past the point of credibility," Alec replied.Seb kept his arm around her as they guided her towards the bed. "Sit before Elna comes upstairs and carries you there herself.""She could not carry me.""She would recruit help."Myla sat.The room was warm. Familiar. Safe.Her body understood the last fact before her mind did.The tension that had held her upright through the false summons, the ambush and the road home began to release. Her hands shook harder. Cold moved beneath her skin despite the fire burning near the wall.Alec crouched and removed one muddy boot.Seb took the other."You do not have to do that."Alec placed the boot beside the bed. "We know."Myla looked down before either man could see how much the answer affected her.T

Chapter: Chapter Ninety: The Direction of HomeMylaThey left the warden's hut at first light.The prisoners rode bound beneath guard, each tied to a separate spare horse. Dena carried the recovered documents inside her coat. Alec kept the brass courier token.Seb rode on Myla's left.Alec rode on her right.The road south showed the damage of the pursuit. Hoofprints cut through the snow, and broken branches marked where Seb's riders had entered the timber.A torn strip of Myla's declaration lay trapped beneath a stone.She saw it.She kept riding."You should have taken the wagon," she told Seb."And surrender my heroic return?""You are bleeding again."He looked at the bandage around his arm. "Barely."Alec glanced across Myla. "You said that yesterday.""It remains true."Seb leaned closer to Myla. "He wants us to stop talking.""I understood him.""I thought you might need an interpretation."Alec faced the road ahead. "I can still hear you.""That was not in doubt."The first Crimson River boundary post appeared between the

Chapter: Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Name She RemovedMylaThe strip of paper lay beside the brass token.Alec had taken it from his coat after Dena left to organise the first watch. Beyond the wall, one prisoner coughed and a guard told him to be quiet.Myla did not need to read the sentence.Sebastian of Crimson River holds no separate claim.She had written it in her own hand. Then she had torn it from the declaration and tied it to a branch so the two men sitting across from her could follow.Seb leaned against the table, his bandaged arm close to his side. Alec stood near the stove, giving her the distance he had finally learned to offer before she asked for it.“I wrote it,” Myla said.Seb looked at the strip. “I know.”“I believed it was the safest version.”“For whom?”The question was not sharp. That made it harder to answer.“For Crimson River. For Alec. For you.”Myla folded her hands on the table.“The Council recognises the marriage,” she said. “They understand contracts, succession and one Luna beside one Alpha. They do not

Chapter: Chapter Eighty-Eight: What the Road ProvedMylaThe old warden’s hut had one door, two narrow windows and a roof that complained under the weight of snow.Myla approved of it immediately.Dena checked the rear wall while Luis and the timber riders brought the prisoners into the attached tack room. The men were bound separately, one to an iron ring beside the feed bins, the other to the support post near the outer door. Two guards stayed with them. The remaining horses crowded beneath the lean-to, steaming in the cold.By the time the door shut behind them, dusk had flattened the road outside into grey and white. The hut was not home, but it could be defended, heated and reached again before morning if they needed to return to the ambush site.The bay mare lowered her head into the water Luis had carried from the pump.“Slowly,” Myla said.Luis glanced towards her. “I know.”“I was speaking to the horse.”“That makes more sense.”The mare drank. Myla ran one hand down her neck, felt the hard tremor beneath the skin and stayed u

Chapter: Chapter Eighty-Seven: What Came Behind HerAlecThe loose horse appeared first.It came down the Council road at an uneven trot, reins dragging, one stirrup striking its flank. Snow clung to its chest and darkened its shoulders with sweat.Alec raised one hand.Dena and the two riders behind him slowed without crowding the road.Then the man came out of the bend.He limped badly, one arm folded against his ribs, but he moved quickly when he saw the horse. He caught the trailing reins, hauled himself into the saddle and turned south.Towards them.The ambusher saw Alec’s group and pulled hard enough to bring the horse sideways.Alec did not reach for his knife.“Dena, right.”She moved before the man could choose the verge.The other two riders separated. One took the shallow ditch. The other held the road behind Alec. The ambusher tried to force the horse between them, but the animal had already been frightened once. It refused the narrow opening and reared.The man lost his seat.He struck the road on his injured side and sta
