The Alpha's Plump Luna
Rhiannon never believed the Moon Goddess hated her—until the night her first mate shattered her world. Public humiliation. Cruel rejection. Banishment. Left for dead in the forest, she stopped fighting for her life. Then an Alpha she barely knew tore through the darkness and changed her fate forever.
Kael wasn’t supposed to be her second chance, but the bond struck between them with staggering force. He didn’t look at her with disgust. He didn’t hesitate. He claimed her as his mate and Luna in front of his entire pack, promising her a home she never thought she’d deserve. With Crescent Moon behind her and Kael at her side, Rhiannon began to rebuild herself—slowly, painfully, beautifully.
But shadows don’t stay buried.
Kael’s enemies rose again, fueled by old lies and deeper betrayals. A jealous she-wolf. A vengeful witch. A fallen Alpha with blood ties to Kael’s past. Their schemes twisted together until everything Rhiannon loved was threatened all over again.
When the attacks escalated, when trust began to crack, when fear pulled her and Kael apart, Rhiannon had to decide whether she would run again—or stand and fight for the life she’d built.
Everything came down to the Bloodshade ruins, a cursed fortress where every secret finally surfaced. A stolen child. A broken marriage. A bond tested by grief, obsession, and war. Rhiannon and Kael would either walk out stronger than fate intended…or not at all.

Chapter: Chapter 140: The Space Between Songs[MARIS]The honey mead had gone straight to my head in the best way.Everything felt warm and soft around the edges, fear finally loosening its grip enough to let me breathe without bracing for disaster. Lena spun beside me, blue dress flaring with each turn, laughter spilling from her lips like she'd forgotten what it meant to be afraid.'This is good,' my wolf hummed contentedly. 'This is right.'For once, I agreed without reservation.The clearing pulsed with life—visiting packs mingling with Crescent Moon wolves, children weaving through adult legs with the kind of fearless energy that only came from feeling absolutely safe. Music swelled and dipped, drums providing heartbeat rhythm while strings added melody that made my feet move without conscious decision.I'd worked myself to exhaustion preparing for tonight. Hands still ached from chopping vegetables and kneading dough and stirring pots that seemed bottomless. Worth it though. Every sore muscle and burning finger was worth se

Chapter: Chapter 139: The Festival of Fire[LENA]My hands ached in that good way that came from honest work.Flour dust coated my apron despite three washes throughout the day. The scent of honey cakes and roasted meat had soaked into my hair, my clothes, and probably my skin down to the bone. Dawn had found me elbow-deep in dough, and now sunset painted the kitchen in amber light while I kneaded my thousandth roll."That's it!" Cora snapped her towel like a whip, making me jump. "Out. All of you. Festival starts in an hour, and I won't have my girls looking like flour sacks.""But the second batch of—""Is already done. Safi finished it twenty minutes ago." She shooed us toward the door with the same energy she used chasing mice from the pantries. "Go. Wash. Make yourselves pretty. That's an order."Laughter bubbled up from somewhere deep in my chest. When had I last laughed like this? Free and easy, without fear coating every breath?Maris grabbed my hand, pulling me toward the door. "You heard her. We're officially relieve

Chapter: Chapter 138: Cracks In the Armor[KAEL]The visiting packs arrived in waves throughout the afternoon.I stood at the manor's entrance, greeting each Alpha with the kind of calm authority that made them believe everything was under control. Firm handshakes. Direct eye contact. Words chosen carefully to project strength without arrogance.Alpha Darren of Ironwood Pack clasped my forearm with genuine warmth. "Your territory looks stronger than ever, Kael.""We've worked hard to maintain it." The lie tasted smooth. Years of leadership had taught me how to wear confidence like armor even when everything underneath was cracking.'They can't see the cracks,' Saen reminded me, restless beneath my skin. 'That's the point.'True. But maintaining the facade was exhausting.I watched Darren's Beta scan the grounds with professional assessment. Noted how his warriors positioned themselves with unconscious defensive spacing. Everyone was on edge despite the festival atmosphere.Smart. This wasn't a time for carelessness.More pack

Chapter: Chapter 137: The Black Rose[RHIANNON]The manor kitchen buzzed with energy I hadn't felt in weeks.Fabric samples covered every surface—deep blues, silver threads, colors chosen to complement the harvest festival's traditional themes. Cora argued passionately for crimson accents while Lena insisted gold would photograph better."Luna, what do you think?" Safi held up two ribbons. "Classic or modern?"I studied them, grateful for problems this simple. "Classic. We're honoring tradition, not reinventing it.""Knew you'd say that." Maris grinned, already tying samples to chairs as a demonstration. "Taste test next?"The afternoon stretched warm and comfortable around us. Laughter came easier than it had in months. No forced cheerfulness, just genuine enjoyment of planning something beautiful for people who'd survived too much darkness.Movement at the doorway caught my attention.Kael leaned against the frame, watching with an expression I couldn't quite read. Not Alpha assessing security. Not the protector evalua

Chapter: Chapter 136: The Second Gift[HUNTER]The makeshift throne felt appropriately crude for a king without a kingdom.Stone salvaged from ruins, cushions stolen from merchant caravans—the whole setup was ridiculous. Except, I made it work through sheer presence.I lounged with one leg draped over the armrest, listening to the rogues’ successful report with clinical precision."One warrior dead. Two injured. The survivor made it back like you wanted."Perfect. Fear needed witnesses. Dead men told no tales, but traumatized ones couldn't stop talking."Crescent Moon's locked down tight now," another added. "Patrols are everywhere. They enforced tighter curfews. The pack is terrified."I smiled—not wide, just knowing. "Exactly as planned."They'd react predictably because Kael was predictable. Tighten control when threatened, suffocate his people with protection they'd eventually resent.The psychological damage would compound faster than physical wounds ever could.I dismissed the rogues with a lazy wave, already bored

Chapter: Chapter 135: The Enemy Within[EMRYS]Riley's body lay covered in the infirmary, awaiting burial rites.I stood apart from the healers and mourners, outwardly calm while fury burned cold beneath a controlled exterior. Three years of peace, and we'd gotten complacent. Predictable.People died when leadership hesitated.No more hesitation.Kael's words from earlier echoed: Whoever's responsible will be dealt with harshly.I silently agreed. Mercy had expired with Riley's last breath.The pack gathered in the main hall an hour later, fear thick enough to taste.I positioned myself along the wall, observing faces, cataloging reactions, searching for tells I might've missed before.Kael stood at the front, refusing to soften truth with comfortable lies."Riley is dead. Garrett's critical. Ethan survived." His voice carried without shouting. "This wasn't random. The attack was coordinated, disciplined, surgical."Murmurs rippled through the crowd."What are you doing to stop this?" someone called out."How many more hav

Chapter: Book 3 -Epilogue-[This Is Not The End] ARIELLA It took us a while to get there, but it was a pleasant walk. The trees were all in full bloom, and it smelled delightful. As we walked, I started feeling a little better. I felt lighter and happier. He was right, though. I didn’t need to worry about him. He was fine. And if he wasn’t, I would be there to take care of him. We reached the stream, and it was gorgeous, surrounded by a ring of tall redwoods and the sun setting behind them. The water glistened in the light. “It’s beautiful,” he murmured. “Yeah,” I agreed. I sat on the edge of the stream, watching the ripples in the water as the gentle breeze stirred the surface. Malik lay on his back next to me, his eyes closed and a contented expression masking his features. “I could get used to this. The tranquility here is unlike anything I’ve felt in a long time.” I rested my chin on my shoulder, watching him, feeling the butterflies flutter with glee in my stomach. Immediately, I felt better than I

Chapter: Book 3 -50-[Memories] ARIELLA “I have a better idea,” I murmured as I studied the guard. “Instead of repeating everything to my father, why don’t you tell him yourself? Or, even better, have my mother look into your memories.” “Look into my memories?” Malik’s brow quirked in question. “How is she gonna do that?” I flashed him a smile, confident in my plan. “Here’s what hunters don’t know about my mom. Unlike the other wolves, my mother was born a witch from another realm. A realm where only witches, wizards, and mages existed.” “That’s, uhm... that’s something,” Malik acknowledged, the wheels in his head clocking overtime as he processed the information. “Yeah, so recently I learned my mom has this cool ability to see people’s memories,” I explained. “Lucky for me, I was born with a similar power. Mine is to see the outcome of major events. At least that’s what I think. Which was how we had known to expect another attack.” “From the moment we met, I knew there was something special about y

Chapter: Book 3 -49-[A Favor] ARIELLA “All right, I can do that. I’ll tell you everything once you promise to do something for me in return.” He nodded, continuing to eat. “What will that be?” “I just need to know my family is okay. My cousin Amanda, the one I was here with recently, is pregnant. My mom is sick and—“ “Say no more,” I chimed in, cutting him off. “It is mainly my fault you are in this cell. Had you not been my mate—although you could’ve died in battle—you wouldn’t have been here.” He stopped chewing, looking at me with intense curiosity. “Are you sure you don’t want to know what I need you to do for me or the time to think it over?” I shook my head. “I doubt it’ll be worse than you locked in a cell.” “Okay.” He gave a brief chuckle. “I think this will be the first time I ever requested a favor from a wolf—a favor for a former hunter.” “A favor from your mate,” I corrected, which made him smile. “I will check on your family, Malik. If they’re okay, I’ll come back and tell you, an

Chapter: Book 3 -48-[Debatable] ARIELLA Infuriated, hands balled into fists, nostrils flared, and hatred burning in my eyes, I stormed after my father. “Was locking him away seriously necessary?” I called out, trying to catch up with my father’s long strides. “He proved he was a wolf, yet you locked him away anyway, like some rabid dog.” Ahead, my father stopped and turned halfway towards me, leveling a look that said he’d heard enough. I had crossed the line and was making things worse. “I have to be sure he’s not an imposter, a hunter pretending to be a wolf. It’s like Alpha Declan pointed out. Nobody knows what made him a wolf.” I shook my head in disgust. “Malik did nothing wrong. He’s not some test used to see how well we can protect our pack.” “You’ve got no clue what you’re talking about,” Dad said, returning to his earlier pace. “There’s a lot to do. I suggest you focus on that before you join your mate in the cells.” “Ugh!” I let out an angry growl and kicked a small stone in my path, sen

Chapter: Book 3 -47-[Not A Threat II] MALIK The moment I saw her face when I awoke after blacking out earlier, I realized how grateful I was to still be alive, even as a werewolf. Not just that. I also understood the severity of this werewolf bond Owen had told me about. The bond was more than just a physical connection. It was also both emotional and spiritual. It sure would take some getting used to. The love and concern in Ariella’s eyes, despite her efforts to hide it, told me she was also thankful I was alive. She was worried about me and hoped I would be okay. Little did she know how much effort it took not to kiss her then and there. Then, suddenly, the world got quiet. The wind rustling trees, the birds tweeting, and the insects chirping all stopped. Her breath was in my ear. I could feel her heartbeat, fast and steady. For a split second, my body froze, and my heart stopped beating. Just for a second, but once my body registered what was happening, it was everything and nothing like I imag

Chapter: Book 3 -46-[Not A Threat] ARIELLA I placed my hand on his chest and willed him to wake up. His skin was warm to the touch, but he didn’t stir. I glanced around frantically, trying to find something to help him. My eyes landed on a large tree branch lying on the ground a few feet away. On my feet in seconds, I grabbed it and ran back to his side. I placed the branch under his arm and tried to apply pressure to the wound, but it was gushing blood. I had to do something, and fast. Or he would bleed out. Ripping off a piece of my shirt, I tied it around the branch, hoping it would stem the flow of blood. Thank the goddess, it had the desired effect. The blood slowed to a trickle. “El!” Abby screamed behind me, her heavy footfall letting me know she was running towards me. “Over here.” I shouted, never taking my eyes off my mate. I stripped off my belt and wrapped it around his arm, compressing the wound. “Oh, thank goodness!” she said as she knelt down next to me. “What the hell happened?”
