From Rejected Slave to Second Chance Luna

From Rejected Slave to Second Chance Luna

Spurn Sanders has spent most of her life treated as a slave by the Moon Howlers Pack. While her twin sister, Morgan, is loved and celebrated, Spurn is abused, hidden away, and made to believe she is weak and unwanted. On her eighteenth birthday, Spurn discovers that Dominik is her fated mate, only for him to reject her, leaving her believing she may never escape the life she has always known. Everything changes when a visiting Alpha discovers Spurn during a mating ball. Drawn to her by a powerful connection neither can ignore, he realizes something is terribly wrong and helps remove her from Moon Howlers. Away from her abusers, Spurn begins healing and discovers what it means to be protected, respected, and loved. As their bond grows, she is given a second chance at having the mate and life she deserves. Spurn's past, however, holds an even greater secret. She learns she is not biologically a Sanders. After the Sanders lost their second twin at birth, they stole Spurn from a stronger rival pack and allowed her true parents to believe their daughter had died. Determined to discover who she really is, Spurn searches for her biological family and learns she comes from an extraordinarily powerful bloodline. She is a rare white wolf whose strength makes her capable of claiming Moon Howlers herself. Instead, Spurn chooses justice over revenge. She destroys the corruption within Moon Howlers but places the loyal Landish Gamma family in leadership, allowing the pack to rebuild under honorable Alpha and Luna rule. By the end, Spurn has transformed from an abused, rejected girl into a powerful Luna. Reunited with her biological family, she inherits their pack, joins it with her mate's, and becomes the strong, compassionate ruler no one ever believed she could be.

Chapter: High Honors and Punishment
Spurn’s POVGraduation day should have felt like freedom. Instead, I woke before dawn to Morgan kicking the side of my cot and throwing a wrinkled dress at my face. “Wear that,” she snapped. “And do not make us look bad.” The dress had once been hers, pale blue and pretty before she ruined it. A stain marked the skirt, and one sleeve hung loose where the seam had torn. I put it on anyway because it was cleaner than my usual clothes and because, for one morning, I wanted to pretend I was allowed to be more than the girl in the basement.The ceremony was held in the academy auditorium. Families filled the seats, cheering, waving, and holding flowers for their graduates. I stood at the edge of my class and kept my hands folded in front of me so no one would see them shaking. Morgan stood several rows ahead of me, surrounded by the wolves who always orbited her. Dominik was there, polished and proud in his graduation robe, already carrying himself like the Alpha heir everyone expected him

Chapter: After the Rejection
Spurn’s POVSince Dominik’s rejection, I kept my head down and my mouth shut. I could not let anyone know what happened that night. If they found out, they would use it against me until there was nothing left to use. They would call me rejected. Unwanted. Proof that even the Moon Goddess could not love me. So I did what I always did. I scrubbed floors. I washed dishes. I carried laundry. I took the daily beatings and swallowed every sound before it could escape. But some wounds did not stay where no one could see them. The rejection left an ache beneath my ribs that flared whenever Dominik walked past me, whenever strawberries and cream drifted through my memory, whenever my body remembered hope and punished me for having it. The first time I saw him after that night, he was standing near the academy doors with Camron and three warriors-in-training, laughing like nothing had changed. But it had. I saw it before he could hide it. His smile pulled too tight at the corners. One hand pres

Chapter: Eighteen Candles for Morgan
Spurn’s POVThe next morning was our eighteenth birthday, though only Morgan’s name mattered inside Moon Howlers. From the moment the sun rose, the pack house belonged to her. Servants carried flowers through the halls. Warriors hung decorations in the ballroom. My mother’s voice floated from room to room, sharp and excited, giving orders for Morgan’s party as if the entire pack existed to celebrate her first breath. No one mentioned that I had been born ten minutes after her. No one looked toward the basement and wondered if I was waiting for my wolf too. They locked me downstairs for most of the day, then summoned me only after the party was over so I could clean up the mess left behind. I had heard the celebration through the floorboards for hours. Music. Laughter. Morgan’s delighted squeals as she opened gift after gift. Every cheer landed inside me like proof that my life had been measured, weighed, and thrown away before I ever had a chance to become anything else. I sat on my c

Chapter: The School That Looked Away
Spurn’s POVThe day before our eighteenth birthday, I almost made it through lunch without being noticed. Almost. I had waited until the cafeteria line was nearly empty, hoping the crowd around Morgan would be too busy laughing to look my way. My tray held a small sandwich, a bruised apple, and a carton of milk. It was more food than I usually saw before evening, and my stomach cramped hard enough that I had to force myself not to eat while I walked.I kept my eyes down and aimed for the last table near the windows, the one no one used unless every other seat was taken. Three more steps, I told myself. Two. One.Morgan stepped into my path.The cafeteria quieted around us in that cruel way crowds did when they sensed entertainment coming. Dominik stood behind her with Camron and a few warriors-in-training, all of them wearing the same bored smiles, like my humiliation was something scheduled between classes.“Where do you think you’re going, slave?” Morgan asked.My fingers tightened

Chapter: The Unwanted Daughter
Spurn’s POVCrack! The sound splits through the kitchen like a whip. Pain explodes across my cheek, hot and sharp, and my palms slide against the wet floor where I have been scrubbing on my hands and knees. “What the fuck are you doing? Get up, you lazy piece of shit. You need to wash this for the party.” Crack! My sister’s hand catches me again, and this time my teeth clamp down on the inside of my cheek hard enough to taste blood. I learned a long time ago not to cry, not to whimper, not to make even the smallest sound. Sound only feeds them. Tears only make them meaner. By the time she finishes screaming, she has a fist in my hair and is dragging me down the basement stairs. My knees hit every step. My scalp burns. The last thing I feel is my body slamming into the cold metal side of the washer, the last thing I hear is her voice calling me worthless. The washer and dryer are not normal household machines. They are industrial size, two washers and two dryers, huge and hard and unfo
