THE ALPHA’S UNWANTED PLUS-SIZE LUNA

THE ALPHA’S UNWANTED PLUS-SIZE LUNA

“Do you think I’ll ever walk hand in hand with a girl four times my size?” Those were the words my husband used after I caught him with the woman he had always loved. For three years, I had endured Lucian Vale’s coldness, his disgust, and the shame he showed whenever we appeared together. I knew he hated having a plus-size wife. I knew he wished I looked like Selene, the beautiful woman who had always been his first choice. So when he finally placed divorce papers in front of me, I signed without looking back but the Moon Goddess refused to let us go. Our marriage bond wouldn’t break, and neither of us understood why. Then Rhydian Veyr, the mysterious Lycan King of Nocturne, entered my life. Unlike Lucian, he never looked at my body with disgust. He made me feel beautiful when I had spent years believing I wasn’t. But Rhydian had a secret too. He hadn’t come for me. He had come for what was hidden inside me. As strange powers begin awakening within my body, I discover that my unwanted existence was never as ordinary as everyone wanted me to believe. My parents hid the truth. Lucian’s family buried it. And Rhydian has been searching for it since before he ever knew my name. Now my husband wants his wife back. The man who used me wants forgiveness he hasn’t earned and The woman who stole my husband from me is hiding a revenge of her own. But they are all about to discover the same thing. The plus-size girl they thought was worthless was the one person they should never have betrayed. And this time, I’m not begging anyone to choose me. I’m choosing.

SELENEI had intended to leave that morning.My bag was already packed, resting beside the chair in the room Merryn had offered me. I had spent months following records, chasing names, and searching for the people responsible for destroying my family. Every new discovery had brought me closer to the truth, but none had brought my father back or restored what the Council had taken from us.I had told myself that finding the truth was enough.Apparently, I had been lying to myself.“Merryn?”I looked up. She stood in the doorway holding two cups of tea.“You’re awake early,” she said.“So are you.”“I wanted to check on Tomas before breakfast.”She placed a cup on the table, then glanced at my bag.“Are you going somewhere?”I considered pretending I hadn’t packed it.“I was thinking about returning to my investigation.”“Your investigation?”“My father’s records. The Council. Dominion. All the things we haven’t uncovered yet.”Merryn pulled out the chair opposite me. “And when were you

MERRYNThe knock came before breakfast.Selene looked up from the intake ledger. “If that’s another representative with a title for you, I’m pretending we’re closed.”“Let them knock,” I said. “We have rules now.”When I opened the door, Tomas stood between his aunt and a broad-shouldered pack healer. The boy’s face was pale, and his fingers clutched the front of his shirt.“He had another episode,” his aunt said quickly. “Worse than the others.”The healer stepped forward. “His bond is collapsing. The pack elders have authorized a severance.”Tomas flinched. “I don’t want them to cut it.”“Then they shouldn’t,” I replied.The healer frowned. “You don’t understand what you’re dealing with. The bond was forced. It is tearing through his nervous system. He seized twice last night.”My attention returned to Tomas. “Are you hurting now?”He nodded, pressing a hand against his chest. “It feels like something is pulling me from the inside.”“Then come inside. Slowly.”His aunt followed us i

MERRYNThe first thing Selene did when we came upstairs was put the map back in its protective folder.“The house can wait,” she said. “The paperwork cannot.”I took the folder from her. “Then let’s make sure the future has a proper deed.”By midday, we were sitting across from a property solicitor in the nearby settlement. The solicitor, a woman named Mrs. Hensley, studied the title documents for several minutes before looking up.“There is an unresolved claim attached to the property,” she said. “It appears to have been raised years ago, then left inactive. I cannot advise you to purchase it until we establish whether the claimant has any surviving legal interest.”“Can I secure the property while the search is underway?” I asked.“Possibly. A temporary caretaker’s agreement would allow you to maintain and secure the buildings without transferring ownership. It would not give you the right to sell, alter the structure substantially, or exclude a lawful claimant.”“That sounds better

MERRYNThe staircase ended at a narrow door.Selene held the lantern higher while I examined the lock. My Eclipse mark had stopped glowing, but the warmth beneath my skin remained.“Before you open that,” Selene said, “I want you to promise me something.”I glanced at her. “What?”“If your mark reacts again, you tell me immediately. No pretending you’re fine, and no trying to force your power to reveal what’s down here.”“I promise.”“You said that very quickly.”“Would you prefer a written contract?”“Actually, given your history with contracts, perhaps not.”I gave her a look, and she smiled.Then I turned the handle.The door opened.Inside was a small underground room with shelves along two walls, a wooden desk, and several storage chests. Unlike the rooms upstairs, everything had been arranged carefully. Dust covered the furniture, but the papers were protected inside sealed containers.Someone had prepared this place to survive.I stepped inside.“Look at the desk,” Selene said.

The Substitute Luna’s Revenge

The Substitute Luna’s Revenge

When Alpha Jace Brown’s bride disappeared hours before their wedding, he chose me instead. Not because he loved me, because I was his mate but because I was convenient. The forgotten omega, unwanted daughter and the perfect substitute for him. For four months I lived as Luna in name alone. No mark, no bond and love. Only endless reminders that the title around my neck belonged to another woman. Then Jenna returned, the sister I trusted, the bride I replaced months ago. The woman everyone believed had suffered because of me. One lie after another, she convinced the entire pack that I had stolen her life… and stolen the man who had always belonged to her. By the time I realized the truth, my husband had already chosen her all again. So I left. But my disappearance didn’t end the nightmare, it began instead. Because the farther I ran from Babcock Pack, the more impossible truths I uncovered. The wedding wasn’t an accident, My miserable life wasn’t an accident. Even becoming the Substitute Luna…had been planned before I was born. Now the Alpha who cast me aside is searching every territory for the woman he lost. While the sister who stole everything from me will burn kingdoms to make sure I never return.

Chapter: The Decision
Jenna’s POVI waited until the estate had gone fully silent before slipping toward the clearing again, the weight of everything gathered these past weeks pressing harder with every step.“How much does he know?” the voice asked before I’d even fully arrived.“More than I’d like.” I kept my breathing steady. “He’s found evidence the disasters predate Kenna’s coronation. He’s questioning the marriage agreement. He’s started digging into my disappearance itself.”“How deep?”“Deep enough that a witness who spoke with him had to disappear before he could finish what he was saying.”Silence answered that, heavy and considering.“He’s not the same man he was when this began,” I continued. “His feelings for Kenna have changed the way he looks at everything. He doesn’t accept convenient explanations anymore. He questions all of it.”“He doesn’t need the entire truth to become dangerous,” the voice said. “One solid piece of evidence, presented publicly, and he could unravel the official story

Chapter: Jenna’s Tears
Jenna’s POVI spent the morning making certain I was seen exactly where suffering gathered, the nursery, the healers’ rooms, the farmers still mourning their blackened fields. Not standing apart from it, the way someone reclaiming a position might. Directly inside it.“I can’t lose her,” one mother wept, clutching my hand near her sick pup’s cradle. “I don’t understand what’s happening.”“I’m here,” I said, kneeling beside her, letting her cry against my shoulder until the worst of it passed. “You’re not alone in this.”I meant every gesture to be watched, though nobody watching would ever have guessed that. That was the whole art of it — compassion offered freely enough that people forgot to wonder why it always seemed to land exactly where the most eyes could see it.By the time I left the nursery, I’d already heard two servants murmuring about how devastated I looked, how naturally I moved among the grieving families. I hadn’t needed to compare myself to Kenna once. The pack did t

Chapter: The Pattern
Jace’s POVI took the old reports out into the territory itself rather than trusting the paper alone to tell me the whole story.“Any crop failures out here before this season?” I asked a farmer near the eastern fields, one of the older men who’d worked this land his entire life.“Once, years back.” He scratched his jaw, remembering. “The whole section failed like this. Then the next season, healthy as anything.”“Did anyone blame someone for it? Someone specific?”“No, Alpha. Just bad luck. Happens to farmland sometimes.”That distinction stood out immediately. The same kind of disaster, and nobody had ever turned it into evidence against a person.I asked the gardeners to walk me through exactly where the dead flowers had started and how the damage spread. The pattern wasn’t random, it followed one section, sharp and deliberate, rather than fading evenly through the whole garden.“Seen something like this before,” one of the older gardeners admitted. “Smaller, years back. Same kind

Chapter: Old Cases
Jace’s POVI found the senior healer still tending the sick pups, exhaustion carved into her face after the accusation that had erupted through the nursery.“Walk me through everything,” I said. “The first symptoms, how fast they developed, anything the affected families share.”“They were healthy before this began, Alpha. No fever, no warning signs.” She rubbed her eyes. “Different parts of the territory. Different food sources, different routines. Nothing obvious connects them.”“Has anything like this happened before? In previous years?”She thought for a long moment. “Isolated cases, actually. I remember two or three occasions over the years, pups falling ill suddenly, no clear cause. But the families recovered, and we never saw a wider pattern, so nobody investigated further.”“Why not?”“Babcock deals with ordinary illness constantly, Alpha. Once the immediate danger passed, there was no reason to dig deeper into cases that were resolved on their own.”That answer didn’t satisfy

Chapter: The Sick Pups
Kenna’s POVThe healers were already running between the nursery and their supply rooms by the time I heard what had happened, their voices sharp with an urgency that pulled me toward the nursery before I’d fully decided to go.I knew my presence might not be welcomed. I went anyway.The sight inside stopped me for a moment, half a dozen newborns, so small and fragile, their small chests working too hard for breath, mothers hovering over cradles with the particular helplessness of people watching something they couldn’t fix.“What do you need?” I asked the head healer, already reaching for clean linens before she answered.“Blankets. Fresh water. Whatever hands we can find that know how to be gentle.” She glanced at me, exhausted, and didn’t waste time turning me away. “Same symptoms across all of them. We can’t determine the cause yet.”I stayed. I carried supplies, kept the room organized, sat beside frightened parents who needed someone to listen while they described how healthy th

Chapter: The Night She was Born
Kenna’s POVI caught up to him in the corridor outside his chambers, his steps still hurried from whatever had passed between him and Jace.“You recognized that relic,” I said, blocking his path before he could retreat any further. “You know exactly what it is.”“Kenna, this isn’t the time”“It’s never the time.” My voice cracked louder than I intended. “I’ve spent days having dreams I can’t explain, seeing a symbol I’ve never learned but somehow drew perfectly, holding a relic that burns beneath my skin and no one else’s. Everyone around me seems to know something about my own life except me. I’m tired of it.”He didn’t answer immediately, and I pressed harder, refusing to let this become another conversation that ended in silence.“You said it responded only to certain people. You looked terrified the moment Jace told you it reacted to me. Whatever you’re hiding, I deserve to know it.”“There are reasons things were kept hidden.”“From me. Always from me.” I stepped closer. “You kno
