For seven years, Raven Varela gave everything to Alpha Jaxon Bloodworth her loyalty, her wolf, and her heart. Despite his public disrespect and ice-cold emotional distance, she held onto the belief that they were destined mates. But on their anniversary, her world shatters when she discovers Jaxon in their bed with her conniving cousin, Risa. Betrayed, rejected, and left for dead by those who swore to protect her, Raven flees to the enemy: the powerful Midnight Pack and its ruthless Alpha, Zayn Dario. Zayn is the man Raven rejected years ago to choose Jaxon, and he is determined to show her the love and respect Jaxon never could. But Raven is done being a pawn in Jaxon’s power games. He and Risa stole her future, but she won't let them keep her down. To prove her worth and secure asylum, Raven must face the grueling Trial of the Crescent Moon, a test that could make her the strongest she-wolf in the territory or kill her in the attempt. As Jaxon and Risa’s elaborate lies begin to crumble, Raven must decide: is she strong enough to forge a new path with the Alpha who always saw her true worth, or will she be dragged back into the toxic darkness she fought so hard to escape?

Chapter: Risa is pregnantRisa is pregnant “Mom, what did you just say?” I stammered.“Risa is carrying the Alpha’s child. She needs you now.”“No, that can’t be. Jaxon is my fiancé.”“Says who? Did he put a ring on your finger?” She sneered. “He hasn’t even announced you as Luna, even after seven years.”“He will. In a few weeks.”“Not when Risa is carrying his child.”My heart broke. I hadn’t even taken a glass of water and they were already at it again.“But we’ve been together for years.”“It doesn’t matter.” My mom said it carelessly, not minding how I felt. “Maybe your sister was destined to be with the Alpha and not you. That’s why she was able to carry his child.”“Not everything is about you, Raven. Your sister deserves love too,” my mom added, but it didn’t feel like she meant it.I stared at my mom in disbelief, then at Risa. She was sitting on the couch, rubbing her flat stomach with her right hand and a smirk on her face. Unable to hold back the tears, I ran to the room Jaxon and I shared.My h

Chapter: Alpha ZaynAlpha ZaynFor the next four days I spent recovering, Zayn took very good care of me.From keeping me company until I fell asleep, to changing the dressings on my wounds, to sitting by my bedside through the night, to feeding me spoonfuls of soup even when I barely had the energy to lift my head.On the sixth day, Zayn took me to the moonlit garden behind the Alpha house.The air smelled of jasmine and night lilies. The quiet made my chest feel lighter.Honestly, I felt refreshed. I felt free, like I had escaped from prison.“How do you feel?” he asked.“Good,” I replied.“I’m glad to hear that,” he smiled.For the first time since I knew Zayn, he smiled.If I wasn’t sitting, my knees would’ve betrayed me.“Oh my God!! His smile is so cute……” Ember, my wolf, dragged the word ‘cute.’ She spoke for the first time in a long while.“Shut up,” I snapped at her in my head.“Thank you,” I said to Zayn out loud.“For what?” His brows twitched.“For everything. Taking me to the hospital. Takin

Chapter: Midnight PackMidnight PackI was supposed to be disappointed seeing Zayn instead of Jaxon.But here I was doing the exact opposite — staring, caught off guard by how good he looked.The entire hospital ward was silent. I could hear a pin drop."Is this how feared he is?" I asked myself.Jaxon could never make a place this quiet.I watched in awe as he walked closer to me. He moved like he had all the time in the world. Slow. Measured. Shoulders relaxed, hands at his sides. The air around him felt heavier, like the whole ward was holding its breath.I shook the thoughts clouding my brain off."Welcome, your Highness."That was the only sound that echoed whenever he walked past. Nurses and doctors bowed their heads.He got to my bed. His golden eyes swept the room first — sharp, predatory, like he was counting threats. Until they landed on me.And they softened.Just for me.My chest tightened.I met Zayn when I was 16. He was 22 already, Alpha of Midnight Park.We crossed paths in the Obsidian Moon

Chapter: The wrong AlphaThe wrong AlphaThe same pain I felt years ago began to seep in slowly. It pierced my chest like a knife.I wonder why Risa hates me so much even when all I've done is love her like a sister. From turning my brother against me, to bullying me, to turning my parents against me — and now, stealing my man.I was still sitting on the cold floor outside the chamber. My silk dress was clinging to my skin, wet with tears and night air. That's when I heard footsteps.My mother and my brother, Lucas, saw me. They walked towards me."Raven? What are you doing out there?" My mother asked. I couldn't reply, I just kept sobbing."Are you crying?" she said as she got to where I was sitting. "Have you seen Risa? She told me she was stepping out but she didn't come in time to accompany me to the palace."Of course. She didn't even care to know why I was crying."I'm talking to you, Raven," she tapped my shoulder hard."Let her be, Mom. You know Raven and her drama, she's seeking attention again. She'

Chapter: DelusionDelusionThe cold wind blew my hair as I sat on the balcony, strands sticking to my teary face. Jaxon and Risa's giggles kept replaying in my head. Her smirk mocked my vulnerability. My heart burned.For all the years Jaxon and I had been together, he had never been that passionate with me, but here he was, lost in Risa."How could he do this to me?" I sobbed.I squeezed myself into a ball, my chin pressed against my knees so hard my jaw ached.The wind wasn't just cold, it tore through my silk dress like it wanted to rip it off my skin. The trees swayed loudly, their whispers sounding like mocking laughter. Every bit of cold that seeped into my body felt like a reminder that I had a mate who was supposed to hold me in a moment like this, yet he was inside keeping another woman warm.Ember was raging inside me. "In our nest! In our roses! Tear her away from him! Rip her throat! She is our blood and she dares!" she howled. Her claws scratched at my chest, begging to shift, to fight. Bu

Chapter: The AnniversaryThe Anniversary "Wake up, Sleeping Beauty," Ember, my wolf, purred in my head.I woke up smiling. "Good morning, lover girl. Is that beautiful smile for our Prince Charming?" she teased."He's not ours, he's mine alone," I said, sitting up."He's ours. Why are you being selfish?""I'm not sharing him with anybody, so do me a favor and stop calling him 'ours'."I climbed down from the bed and walked to the giant dressing mirror. My fingers brushed my collarbone, caressing the cool silver choker Jaxon bought me on my first birthday with him. It was beautiful, a thin line of silver with a cloudy moonstone resting right over my throat."It's still beautiful even after years," Ember said."Yeah, but I wish he'd gotten me a blood diamond instead. Something everyone can see. So they know I'm claimed.""You didn't ask for it.""Of course I shouldn't have to ask for it.""Easy, my Luna. You'll be crowned Luna soon and you'll get all the blood diamonds, obsidian, gold bands, everything at the
