A Luna for The Cursed Alpha
For years, Lyra was the prophecy.
She had the red hair, the green eyes, and the singular destiny: to become Luna and bring unrivaled power to the Incarnadine Pack. She dedicated her life to Alpha Rhys, trading her orphan past for a powerful future.
But on the day of their engagement, Rhys shattered her world with a single, cruel declaration. He presented a perfect, prettier copy of Lyra —and publicly rejected his rightful Luna.
Cast out, ridiculed, and targeted for death by the very pack she was meant to rule, Lyra ’s only path to survival was the most reckless gamble in the Land of Verdentia: she submitted her name for the Alpha King’s Luna Selection.
The prize is a crown. The cost is suicide.
King Kian is dark, cold, and rumored to be cursed. Every she-wolf fears his name, yet Lyra is determined to earn his terrifying affection. She must. His power is the only shield strong enough to stop her former pack from tearing her apart.
But just as Lyra begins to melt the ice around the King’s heart, a desperate Rhys realizes the devastating secret he threw away and comes crawling back, determined to reclaim his Luna. He discovers, however, that the Cursed King is fiercely territorial.
“Lay a hand on my Luna,” Kian snarls, his voice a promise of utter destruction, “and I’ll destroy you and your entire pack.”
Lyra survived one betrayal. Can she survive a King’s obsession, and a former Alpha’s desperate regret, without losing her soul entirely?

Chapter: Chapter 11The deafening silence in the throne room made Lyra nauseous as she was left alone with the Alpha King.After making her bold announcement that she would sever ties with Incarnadine, he had swiftly ordered the Madden family to leave, their presence no longer needed. And now, she was in his presence once again, unsure of what would happen next in this tense and uncomfortable meeting.“I have a request I’d like to ask you, Alpha King.” she began, feeling a lot more courageous than she usually would be. She reminded herself that there was no point in beating around the bush, especially since she had shown nothing but boldness since arriving at the palace.“Talk,” Kian nodded his head once, his gaze locked on her.“I’d like our conversation from yesterday to remain between us.” she requested; her tone was serious. “I know Beta David is already looking into it, but please don’t tell anyone else besides him. I don’t want my plans to be jeopardized.”“Hmm,” Kian tapped his index fingers o

Chapter: Chapter 10“Are you Awake ?” A woman asked as soon as Lyra opened her eyes. She sat up slowly, disoriented and blinking slowly as her surroundings came into focus. She was in hernchambers but with a stranger standing in front of the table near her bed. The woman’s hair was a short, flawless cascade of brunette curls, elegantly framing her face. Her nose and cheeks were dotted with delicate freckles, and her doe-like brown eyes sparkled with warmth.“I’m Portia, Beta David’s mate. You fainted in the Alpha King’s study yesterday. Do you remember anything?” The Beta female asked, triggering Lyra ’s memory of the previous day.She could recall the overwhelming sensation of struggling to breathe under the sudden display of Alpha power from the King; it felt like she was going to die.“Yes, I remembered,” she replied, rubbing her temple when she felt her head throbbing,“Sorry about that. Can you fill me in on what happened while I was unconscious?”“The Alpha King summoned me, assigning me as your

Chapter: Chapter 9“Come Here,” Lyra flinched as Kian’s voice suddenly reached her through their mind link. She hadn’t been expecting him to use it, especially not in order to tell her to come to him. Her eyes darted down to Rhys, who was still on all fours and visibly struggling. His heavy panting and trembling body caused her heart to race, knowing that things could quickly go wrong if this didn’t stop soon.“Didn’t you hear me? Come here, he won’t die.”the Alpha King commanded again, causingLyra gulped and hesitantly turned towards the balcony again. Just as she took a step forward,Rhys reached out and grabbed her ankle, preventing her from leaving.“H-help... Me.” A soft, pained whisper escaped his lips, barely audible. He sounded so weak as if he could die any moment. Lyra clenched her fists and bit her lip, torn between her hatred for Rhys and the sight of him in such pain. This was not the kind of suffering she had wanted for him. She had imagined him broken emotionally, but never physical

Chapter: Chapter 8“UGH!” Lyra let out a low groan, resting her palm against the cool bathroom wall. After having breakfast with the Alpha King, she felt like she was going to get indigestion. She couldn’t tell if it was because she hadn’t eaten much in a while or if his presence made her uncomfortable stomach uneasy. Regardless, all she wanted to do now was hide under the covers and stay there for days. She sighed and closed her eyes, only to open them again when she heard a knock on the door.“It’s me David.” The beta said, “Kian had instructed me to give you a tour of the palace to help you become acquainted with your new surroundings.”With a smile on her face, Lyra stepped out of the room and composed herself. The discomfort she had been feeling moments ago vanished as she heard that she would get to tour the palace. As a child, she had always been fascinated by the royal palace and had read countless books about it. She even had a photo of it that she would often stare at,dreaming of one d

Chapter: Chapter 7The sound of knocking on the door startled Lyra awake, bringing her out of her deep sleep. She groggily looked at the ceiling,disoriented and confused, only to find herself lying on the bed instead of on the sofa where she was certain she had fallen asleep.Frowning, she rubbed her eyes and sat up, peeing at the sofa across the room, as if trying to remember how she ended up in bed.“Hmm, did someone move me?” she whispered to herself, her body slowly stretching as she turned towards the door at the sound of a woman’s voice after another knock.“Lady Lyra, are you awake already?”“Ah, y-yes. The unexpected formality of being addressed as ‘lady left her feeling flustered and slightly uncomfortable. In the noble titles used in this era, such formalities were already uncommon among servants and those of higher standing have ceased to exist, however, there were still individuals who clung to traditions and customs“May I come in? The Beta instructed me to attend to you and inform you th

Chapter: Chapter 6AS Lyra Strolled alongside the beta, a heavy silence hung in the air, making her wonder if he harbored any dislike towards her.Reflecting on her earlier behavior, she couldn’t help but acknowledge that she might have come off as rude or uncivilized. She had hoped for a friendly introduction, some guidance on palace rules, or at least a casual chat.Compared to the imposing Alpha King, the beta seemed more approachable. With his gentle features, gray eyes, and brown hair, he exuded a sense of familiarity that put Lyra at ease. He was one of those people who just exuded support and kindness, she had assumed he would be friendly, but maybe she was wrong.Suddenly, her thoughts were interrupted by his voice, snapping her out of her reverie.“I’m impressed,” he said, catching her off guard. “You’re quite straightforward and brave. I can’t decide if that’s because you don’t value your life or simply naive.”Turning to look at her with his gray eyes, he seemed genuinely curious about her

Chapter: Book 3 : Chapter 73March 26th “These flowerbeds are going to look great this summer.”Eden leaned against Ian by the window of the large living room, above the flowerbeds that Johnson and his men, including young Trubshawe, were preparing, burying the flower bulbs.“Amara is growing, too. It's late March, spring is in the air.”Ian put his arm around his omega’s shoulders and drew her closer. It was still a shock for him to know she was his.“Do you think it's possible to be this happy?" asked Eden.“No, not usually," he replied, smiling. Then he leaned over to tickle Eden’s earlobe with his tongue, watching for her reaction. “But I know lots of ways to enhance the sensation.”“Oh, I know that.”Eden tried to react like a respectable viscountess and show a little reproach towards her rascal of a husband, but she hardly succeeded.“As it happens," Eden whispered to him in an engaging voice, "we have no obligations either this afternoon or this evening. I've kept us a few moments free, since we're packi

Chapter: Book 3: Chapter 73Ian made it his own, sensing that this was their real first time. The alpha forced himself to control his desire and keep an eye on Eden’s, which rose and rose, until the final conflagration, the simultaneous deflagration.“My love…”Ian gasped again. “Forever and ever. Forever and ever.” “My omega,” Ian whispered, stroking the back of her neck.Ian looked at his omega with such tenderness, as if he couldn't believe he had it all to himself.“You're mine, aren't you Eden?” The alpha asked, looking tall and majestic above her“All yours” Eden nodded vigorously, her breath catching as she felt Ian’s hands wrap around her ankles, caressing her calves before spreading them apart, making more room for between her thighs“Yes," Eeen murmured, "yes, all yours, mark me.”“Are you sure?”“Yes, I want to be yours, completely”Ian let out a tiger-like growl just before he bounced on his prey, before leaning in, his mouth hot and heavy as he rubbed his lips across Eden’s cheek, up to her chin,

Chapter: Book 3 : Chapter 72“Sir”It was Philips' voice that brought Ian back to earth; he'd just lost the most important person in his life.“Sir." Philips insisted in the face of his master's silence. "I'm sorry to disturb you, but we await your orders. It's getting dark, the current is preventing us from crossing and continuing our search, so I think it's best to go back inside, get warm, regain your strength and start again tomorrow. Also, you'll have to prepare for the worst, sir, with the low temperatures and the cold.”“Are you mad?” Ian asked, his voice full of fatigue but above all full of bitterness. “Excuse me, sir?”“My wife has just been carried off, I don't know where she is or what state she's in, and all you can tell me is to go home, get warm and prepare for the worst. So I repeat, ARE YOU CRAZY?”“I'm sorry, I…”“Enough... Send Jem to tell my Aunt and Alexis to take care of Amara. Then gather all the men near the clearing with the best hunting dogs you can find. I want everyone to get to work,

Chapter: Book 3 : Chapter 71Ian first saw the shattered pillars of the bridge, then a wavering figure stepped out to meet him, a small dog barking frantically at his heels. Ian jumped down from his saddle and Toby leapt into his arms. A baby's cries could be clearly heard over the roar of the river.“Where's my omega, Philips?”“Still in the car, milord. With the maid and the baby. The footman's a little hurt, but he'll be alright. I sent him for help. It was the floodwater that caused the bridge pillars to collapse as we drove over...If we make any sudden movements, it'll cause the rest of the bridge to collapse.” Ian put the dog down and ran along the bank, the coachman on his heels. When he reached the carriage, Ian had to fight the urge to jump straight into the water to save his family.“We need ropes, horses and... Ah, thank God, there's Murrow!”The carpenter galloped down the hill, pulling his wagon team along. When he reached the bank, he braked with the reins. The men with him jumped down from th

Chapter: Book 3 : Chapter 70We'll go down to the hotel, Mary," she announced to the maid, pulling from her bag the London guidebook she had taken from the library. Let's see which one is the most suitable..The horses slowed as they took the path that led to the bridge over the river. Eden glanced out the door at the fog-shrouded landscape, then back to her guide. “The Pulteney looks to be the most comfortable and central," she explained, trying to keep her tone light, "but it's certainly very expensive. Let's see.”The sedan lurched forward and, at the sound of hooves on logs, Jimin realized they had reached the bridge. There was a terrible creak. The coachman screamed and the sedan pitched sideways. Eden tried to grab hold of Amara, but her hands could only clasp Mary's dress as Icy water invaded the darkened cabin. They had fallen into the river.Ian waded to the edge of the torrent, the water almost completely submerging his high boots.“Too late," he announced. The dam's already broken. There's no way

Chapter: Book 3 : Chapter 69Breakfast the next day was more tiring than Eden had imagined. Ian behaved with impeccable courtesy. He smiled at her, spoke to her politely, and when Eden sent the servants away so she could talk to him about what had happened the day before, Ian simply shook his head.“Let's not talk about it anymore, Eden. We've got to put it behind us. Your nerves were on edge after a few days at the reception.”Eden wanted to apologize, to explain why she had lost control of herself. If Ian pretended that nothing had happened, would she be obliged to leave for London and let this unspoken issue hang over them forever?There was a knock at the door, and Jackson entered. Behind him, several men in working clothes could be seen gathered in the corridor.“Lord and Milady will excuse me," he began, "the rains have caused the river to burst its banks. Turner sends word to the lord that he fears the mill dam may break.”“I'll be off then”Ian put down his napkin, stood up and walked into the corrido
