The Alpha’s Moonfire Secret
At the sacred Moonfire Festival, Sera Vane suffers a betrayal that shatters her life and drives her from her pack in shame.
In a moment of heartbreak and desperation, she disguises herself and takes part in a secret ritual meant for the Alpha and it changes her fate forever.
No one speaks of what happens during the Moonfire Ritual. But five years later, the consequences have returned with sera as she returns to Crimson Hollow with a young son James whose striking resemblance to Alpha Aldric Thorne sparks whispers throughout the pack.
Her unexpected reappearance threatens to disrupt the carefully guarded hierarchy, especially for those who once cast her out, and for the Alpha himself, who remains unaware of the truth behind that fateful night.
Bound by duty Aldric agrees to Sera’s bold demand: a union that secures her son’s place… but keeps their hearts locked away.
As political tensions rise and enemies close in, Sera must navigate a dangerous game of power, betrayal, and buried emotions.
In a world where bloodlines determine destiny and love is both a weapon and a weakness, Sera must rise from the ashes of her past to protect her child, uncover the truth, and claim the strength she never knew she had.

Chapter: chapter 9Aldric Two Weeks AgoThe cold breeze of the morning air on my skin making my hair stand, I smiled as I breathe in, taking in all of it. It reminded me of my father, he always pushed me in the early hours of the morning to receive the morning air, and he called it medicine. “Continue this and you would live more than a hundred years old, without falling ill.” He said, one morning.But despite knowing this secret, he didn’t get to live that long. I stared out at the woods stretched in front of my view, where the wind stirred the trees like whispers in the dark. I admired the view; it looked beautiful. “What’s with the good mood, Aldric?” Reece asks, his voice mocking.I turned my beta, Reece sitting on the cushion chair, hanging cross, his legs crossed, his eyes fixed to mine. I don’t even know why he is here. I can’t remember requesting for him. He has been my best friend right from childhood and has a way of reminding me of my schedule, which is sometimes annoying.“And what makes

Chapter: chapter 8 Sera “Tell me what’s happening in there,” I slammed my fists against the heavy, thick door, my voice laced with emotion. My fists hurt as my knuckles turned white, but I didn't care. My wolf’s rage from within matched mine. She had gone a bit silent and was still angry with me for the past few days, but couldn’t help herself when it came to James. Despite not being in a chatty mood, my wolf tried to calm me down, but I couldn’t hold myself again; the silence was killing me more than anything, and I needed answers. One of the pack guards I recognized on border patrol duty the day I returned to Crimson Hollow Pack stood outside the chambers in a dialogue with another figure I couldn’t quite place, yet backing me. I moved closer to see it was beta Reece giving him what looked like instructions with subtle movements of his hands, they looked in the middle of something, but I still interrupted anyway.. “Reece, ” I called out, my voice racing with rage. He turned to my direction, his

Chapter: chapter 7 Sera A faint scream coming from my east hit my ears, but when I turned, all I heard or saw was the rustling of leaves beneath my feet. But there was something familiar about the voice that made me think for a slight second, something isn't right. When I saw or heard nothing to make me paranoid, I shook my head, shrugging off the negative thought. “It's just in your mind, Sera, bad energy far away," I said to myself, but it came out more of a whisper. But when the scream rang in my ears again, this time louder, it confirmed my worst possible nightmare. The herbs I collected from the forest fell instantly from my hands in slow motion as I froze, my jaw dropping wide. The unfortunate basket shattering on impact with the floor. My herbs spreading on the grass, my hard earned labor, but right now I don't care, it doesn't matter, not what my jewel is in pain. "James," I cried at the top of my voice. My legs bolting towards the direction. My wolf’s instincts surged forward, prima

Chapter: chapter 6Aldric “Welcome, everyone. Tonight, we celebrate the union between your Alpha… and your new Luna.” I declared, my voice steady but echoing slightly across the room. All eyes darted towards me, and I bit my lower lips then smirked but it reach my eyes in attempt of masking the disgust swirling within me. “My Luna indeed, just on paper,” I whispered to myself. “Careful, boy, you are playing with fire,” my wolf groaned within. The crowd continued murmuring, but nobody had the balls to look me in the eye while hushing. Sera, standing to my right, froze for some seconds; my eyes landed on the twitching muscles on her neck as she stilled. What the heck is wrong with her? She looks like she has just seen a ghost. Sera stood frozen beside me, her hands clasped tightly in front of her as if she were afraid they’d shake. She didn’t look at me. She hadn’t looked at me once since the wedding ceremony, at least not eye to eye. Not when I recited the vows. Not when I took her hand. Not e

Chapter: 5Chapter 5Sera“Mommy, why did that man say those bad things to you?” Caleb asked with a soft voice.He held my arms, clutching his little fingers tightly against mine, a gesture which melted my heart, as I brushed his curls back from his face, forcing a smile.“People like him are just troublemakers,” I said, swallowing the lump in my throat. “Some people speak out of hurt or hate. But don't worry, it’s not about you, okay? You did nothing wrong.” I assured him.His eyes, those blue eyes he got from Aldric stared at me, I wonder what was on his mind. “But... he said you were a whore. What does that mean?”I almost choked out at his question.I cleared my throat. “It’s nothing, honey, stuff adults say when they want to be mean.”A breath caught in my chest. I blinked, trying to hold the tears back, but they slipped anyway but I turned my face to the side hiding it from him before wiping off.“Mama, are you okay?” he asked.“Yes, something just got in my eyes.”“Does it hurt?”“No, b

Chapter: 4Chapter 4SeraTwo weeks later, here I stood in an ivory wedding gown that clung too tightly to my curves making life difficult for me to breathe. I cursed under my breath the tailor.The ceremony took place at the Moonstone Courtyard beneath the full moon. A sacred place for sacred bonds. But nothing about this day felt sacred at least not to me.It was all a charade we both just wanted this to be done already so we could go about our normal lives. Speaking of normal I don't know what that will look like now as the Luna.I didn't look at Aldric when he slipped the ring on my finger. My hand was steady, but my heart wasn't and neither was his I could tell from his unreadable expression. At least that was clear to both of us but that was the least of my worries now, since I was on the alter, I constantly looked over to see if James was still sitting in the front row, I couldn't trust anyone to here to leave them with him.So I made sure he was sitting in the front row, his feet barely

Chapter: 8 ~ Déjà VuDove"You belong to Don Carlos now," the taller man growled in my ear like it was nothing, associating me with another dangerous and ruthless mafia lord.I stopped struggling, my eyes widened, his words settling in.My brain couldn’t process the words. I stared ahead nonchalantly like I didn’t hear him correctly. Maybe I wanted it to be a hallucination.“What?” I whispered softly.He smirked, but without humor. “He owns you, sweetheart, and he needs you. Right away.”No, this cannot be happening again. The images flashed in my head the night Ricco took me. Why do I always attract the most dangerous people in the city? God save me from mafia lords. I pray in a whisper to myself.“No,” I said louder, jerking away from him. “You’re out of your fucking mind.”“You think I’m out of my mind?” he lashed back at me, his face hardening.“I think you’ve got the wrong girl,” I say, my voice calmer this time, but my rage is still swirling in.The man holding me rolled his eyes, but the calmer on

Chapter: 7 ~ secured package Dove “Let go of me,” I roared, kicking wildly as his thick fingers dug into my arm. I twisted and turned my body, giving the fight I could, but it was of no use. My face down as my eyes fixated on the broken poker bat rattling haphazardly across the floor. The more I dragged, the more my towel loosened; I could barely hold on, and the coat just hung awkwardly from one shoulder. “Get off me,” I screamed again, my throat soar. The taller man grunted and yanked harder, pulling me into the hallway with almost no effort. My bare feet felt the coldness of the marble floor. And then my jaw dropped, I froze when the other man mentioned my name. “Enough struggling, Dove.” I must be hearing things right? There is no way it’s possible that he knows my name. I narrowed my eyes at him. “What did you just call me?” The two men glanced at each other, the one holding me smirked like it was a joke. “You heard me, Dove.” My stomach twisted. “How do you know my name?” I ask I furrowing my

Chapter: 6 ~ he liedDoveMy knees pulled to my torso as I curled myself into a ball on the cold marble floor of the wine cellar.Ricco's coat wrapped around my shoulders like a shield, my towel a bit damp from sweat. The air here is thick and suffocating as I gasp for air."This way, watch out." I heard a faint familiar voice outside. One of the maids, God knows who she was talking to and what the heck is she doing outside.I pressed my back against the wall, cold but I didn't care as I tried to process everything happening to me all at once."Why me God?" I whisper to myself curling tighter into myself as I set my hands together in a praying pose. "Just let it be over, would you?" as I looked up like I was waiting for some answer from above.I squeezed the coat tighter like my live depends on it. The coat smelt just like him, masculine, dangerous and surprisingly comforting.His last words, just before the invasion. "You are mine. I meant what I said, I want every inch of you." echoing in my head, ca

Chapter: 5 ~ Under FireRiccoFor a moment I thought I was in an action movie as the shots fired echoed from the outside getting more intense, causing damage, and the sound drawing closer. Who the hell has the guts to infiltrate my house? The person must have a death wish which I would be happy to grant."Fuck," I cursed under my breath.I looked at Dove, deep beneath her almond-shaped hazel eyes. No resistance, no fire just fear for her life, probably her first time so close to war, and it’s all my fault.How dare anyone make my security questioned?From her body language, she was counting on me to protect her. “Anything for you Dove,” I whispered to myself.I grabbed my boxers from the corner which I tossed earlier and put them on, then I grabbed the Glock from the drawer beside the bed.A smirk escaped the corner of my lips when I confirmed, the magazine was full.From the corner of my eyes, I could see Dove covering herself with her towel, just inches next to me. Instincts popping in no need for words.

Chapter: 4 - Magical touchRICCO Standing in front of me my beautiful gouges olive skinned dove, her oval-shaped face housing her sweet-looking dimpled cheeks with just a towel, her long hair still wet. Her curves just wow. This is wrong in every way, her beauty is wrong. She needs to be studied in every institution, every inch of her body needs to be studied. I don't care if anyone has any other opinion about it. But it's not only her beauty that intrudes on me, it's her fire, her resistance even after being clearly scared of me she still continues to be stubborn, something none of my men can try. It's been a while since I saw a lady with such a spark of fight in them, maybe I can take that fire and channel it to my advantage. Even in towels, she looks stunning, just imagine what she would look like without it. I look at her and am lost for words. I have seen a lot of beautiful ladies this is not my first time but I haven't met a beautiful dove before. This is pure genius creation from God. Th

Chapter: 3 - pyscopathDOVE I felt his weight pressed against me as my back hit the bed. I tried to struggle but his hands gripped my wrist and pinned them above my head. "Stop." I pleaded, my voice wavering. Locking gaze with me he just chuckled and continued. "Why?" He leaned in brushing his lips against my neck, his voice with authority. "You are mine, remember? No matter how much you fight it" His face was so close I could feel his hot breath on my neck. He then lowered his lips further down my body, trailing over my shoulder and grazing my collarbone. "Wonderful." He grinned mockingly. Heat creeping up in my neck and my entire body. "Excuss--" "You?" He cut me mid-sentence. His mouth was now hovering over my ear, his teeth grazing it in a tender manner. A sharp gasp escaped my lips, my body failing me in ways I never imagined. His hot skin radiated heat which transferred to mine, making my breath hitch. What the hell? This is wrong in every way. I swallowed hard, I could bet he
