The Broken Beta’s Redemption
A Spin-off to Rejected Mythical Luna —Julian X Robin Story They say destiny determines how our lives play out, that the Moon Goddess shapes our paths. But if that’s true, then she did a terrible job with mine. Because as I’m being dragged away, all eyes on me and tears burning down my cheeks, I finally understand how cruel destiny can be.
After surviving the war with my Alpha and the Luna, a new battle begins, one I didn’t choose but must finish. Revenge? Justice? Maybe that’s what I should live for. Maybe that’s what should keep me fighting, to hunt down the Men of Shadows who destroyed everything I loved. But as I run through that field with the people I now dare to call friends, none of that seems to matter anymore.
All I want is my life back. My family. My pack. Him.
And if that means killing again, I’ll do it, only this time, I knew better than to do it alone.
“Did you really think leaving me behind was the best choice?” he asked, his breath hot against my skin.
“I came to you twice, Julian,” he says, his grip firm, his voice trembling with something between pain and love. “You pushed me away both times. This time, I won’t let you fight alone.”
Then his lips crashed against mine, and a single tear slipped free.
Was this the retribution I’d been seeking… or just the beginning of a curse written by fate.

Chapter: Chapter 35 Damon’s POV I walked into that pack with all the confidence I could muster in that moment. I knew exactly what I was doing when I whispered that I knew their secret to the Alpha. Early, I know—but that was going to be the basis of our negotiation, so it was better to put it out there at once. We didn’t come to play, and we definitely didn’t come to be threatened. This time around, we were the ones doing the threatening. I knew the others were surprised at how easy it was to get invited in, but they’d figure it out later. Their pack was as basic as I expected—just a few huts. As we walked past, people stepped out to stare at us. “They’re looking at us like we committed some grave crime when we only just got here,” Lucian said softly. “That’s how they always are,” Julian responded. “They’re always wary.” He finished just as we stopped in front of the huge hut standing in the middle of the field. “Let’s go in,” the Alpha said sharply as he walked ahead. We followed. I stretched

Chapter: Chapter 34I still stood rooted in my spot as they all watched me.“They’re definitely not friendly,” I said one more time. “We might have better luck if we turn back.”“Was the last time you came here really that bad?” Raven asked as she moved to stand beside me.I nodded slowly. “Rex figured out their secret at a glance,” I started, “so they were very hostile. Even with Alpha Aries with us, they were going to attack. We only got out of there after some threats Aries made, using Rex’s abilities and other factors.”Lucian sighed. “What secret would make them so careless that even an Alpha was unsafe here?” he asked, eyes on Damon.“Their pack consists of humans,” Damon said simply. “Half human, half wolf. They’re scared of being hunted down, so whoever knows their secret definitely would not walk out unscathed,” he added in a dry tone.“That’s a big secret,” Lucian muttered.“I understand their fear, though,” Raven cut in. “People always want to take out the ones they see as weaker or different

Chapter: Chapter 33As we sat there staring at the bright moon, different thoughts flooded my mind, but above everything else was relief. Relief that we had all made it out together. My gaze drifted over everyone, soft and careful, and I couldn’t stop the small smile that formed on my lips.We stayed wrapped in silence for a long while, each of us lost in our own thoughts, trying to figure out what came next.My mind wandered back to my earlier conversation with Damon. I didn’t quite know how to explain it, but no matter how cold or intimidating he appeared, he cared—deeply. His powers were the only reason we escaped that pack so easily. They were destructive, terrifying… and effective.I had mentioned going back to my pack, going home—but even I knew it wouldn’t be easy. They might hate me now, for all I knew. Still, the thought had only crossed my mind because of Robin. If I could just see his face, even once, it would be enough to push me forward. But that wasn’t possible anymore. I couldn’t risk putt

Chapter: Chapter 32Damon’s POVI didn’t know where we were running to or why we were still running when I knew we weren’t being chased anymore. The guards had lost us almost an hour ago. I saw when it happened. Yet I kept running with everyone else, because the sense of freedom felt like nothing I had ever known.I never once imagined the prison would set us free. Even after seeing Julian out of his cell, I still doubted the possibility—right up until I decided to step out of my own.I didn’t know what kind of life awaited us from now on, but the free smiles on everyone’s faces as we ran told me all I needed to know. They would be fine. I was sure of it. Hell, I would make sure of it. The men of the shadows had better sharpen their hiding skills, because I planned to do everything possible to find them.“Can we rest for a moment?” Lucian called, halting in front of me. “The sun’s almost gone. We can’t keep going without a destination. We can take the night to plan.”He finished, breathing heavily.“I ag

Chapter: Chapter 31Sweat clung to every part of my body as I weaved through the grounds, keeping Raven and Lucian safely behind me. Damon’s energy flooded the entire area, so overwhelming that not a single soul dared to come near him. Those foolish enough to try dropped to the ground screaming, their skin burning under his power.This was the first time I truly saw how destructive Damon’s abilities were, and it left me speechless.“Keep walking and stop looking around, kid,” he yelled, briefly turning toward me. His eyes were blood red.In the next second, he grabbed a nearby guard by the throat, his energy wrapping tightly around the screaming man. He dragged the almost-limp body forward as he took bold steps, his gaze locked on Davin, who stood frozen at a distance—panic written all over his face.“Their Alpha is almost here!” Lucian shouted over the chaos.Damon seemed to hear him. He dropped the now-dead guard to the ground and turned back to us.“That’s enough playing around,” he said, reeling his

Chapter: Chapter 30The farther we walked out of the dungeon, the faster my heart beat. I was still stuck in that loop, unable to believe we were actually free, but another worry crept in—what were we going to face once we reached the surface?I stayed at the back with Lucian, watching Damon’s back as he walked without a trace of hesitation. How was he this put together? I knew he was built different, but still.“Halt.”His voice rang out sharply, and we stopped immediately, my eyes darting to what looked like the final door. We hadn’t passed a single cell on our way out, and that alone said a lot about how mysterious this prison truly was.“If we step out of here, there’s no turning back,” he said, brows raised. “We either make it out… or we make it out.”I nodded, drawing a steady breath.“We can try to be peaceful first,” Raven called from beside him.Damon let out a slight chuckle. “We’ll see how that works out.”His hands flew to the door handle.“Ready?” he asked, his eyes sweeping over us again.L

Chapter: EPILOGUE Julian’s POV The voices still echoed in my head, the sounds I was sure I’d never forget. They weren’t just memories anymore; they had become a rhythm that haunted me, pounding in the back of my skull whenever silence stretched too long. While everyone else seemed to have found peace, even in the shadow of grief, I stayed trapped in that moment. No matter how easily I smiled at Rex and the others, no matter how normal I tried to look, the memory clung to me like a second skin. I’d known the moment I saw them back at the Blue Crescent Pack that they had finally come to cash in their promise. I told myself I’d been expecting it, that I’d always known it would come. I’d even convinced myself I had no regrets about making that deal. After all, it had protected everyone else—protected the pack. But the image kept coming back. Me standing outside that cell, the lights dim. My hands dripping with a crimson no one else would ever see. The elders lying motionless on the dungeon floor,

Chapter: Peaceful Beginning Rex’s POV Waking up to an empty bed and an even emptier room had me on my feet almost instantly. My hand flew to the side stool, where Aries always left notes whenever he slipped out early. But the space was bare. I took a deep breath, forcing down the prickle of panic rising in my chest. Don’t jump to conclusions, I told myself. He could have gone out to clear his head. After all, the outburst with Julian yesterday was a lot, and coupled with the afterfeelings from the fight… it made sense he’d want time alone. Still, the silence of the room pressed down on me. I collapsed back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. The link. I muttered it aloud as I reached for him through the bond. Aries, I called softly, trying to break through the obvious block sitting heavy in his mind. Nothing. Not even the faintest flicker of acknowledgment. My heartbeat quickened, sharp and restless. I got up again. I’ll just go check myself, I thought, walking out of the room while still attempting th

Chapter: Beginnings Aries’ POV Sitting in my office now, my thoughts wandered back to Julian and how he must have felt to lash out that way. I’d known him forever, and the only times I’d ever seen him that mad were over simple things, like food or outfit choices. So naturally, last night had taken me aback. I had managed to get Rex in bed before sneaking out. I told her not to worry, but truthfully, I was the one carrying the weight of worry. I hadn’t thought about what impact Lilly’s death would have on Julian. I blamed everything on the men of the shadows, selfishly thinking only of my own pain, not that of others, not even my best friend’s. My gaze fixed on the window, still waiting, still hoping to see him come back. Robin had returned a while ago, but he was alone. I was tempted to ask him, but I held it in, thinking it’d be better to talk to Julian myself. I don’t know how long I sat there, but Julian never came. The night stretched on, filled with thoughts of the battle we’d just fought, how

Chapter: Burying grief Rex POV Tears streamed silently down my cheeks as I watched them lower Lilly into the ground. The pack stood together while the sun sank behind us, casting long shadows across the field. Grief hung heavy in the air, suffocating, pressing down on all of us. I didn’t fight it. I let it engulf me… engulf us. Aries’ hand slipped into mine, his grip gentle but firm. I squeezed back, reminding myself I wasn’t the only one who needed comfort—he did too. My eyes found Rose, crumpled in Zane’s arms, sobbing uncontrollably. Even Robin, always the steady one, had tears glistening in his eyes. The only one missing was Julian. He would take this hard. I knew it. And though it pained me that he wasn’t here, at least he wouldn't be alone, he had Robin by his side through everything. We stood long after the grave was closed, my gaze fixed on that raw patch of earth. I didn’t notice the crowd had thinned until I turned to find only Robin and Aries still with me. “When did everyone leave?”

Chapter: ComfortRex POVCalmness, peace, belonging, all the things I once assumed, believed to be illusions were the same feelings that embraced me right now. I slept too well for someone who had fought and ended a war, and someone who had lost a friend. But I guess I couldn’t stop the universe from granting me the well-deserved rest it craved.My dreams were empty for once, but even that space wrapped me in familiar warmth, one I didn’t want to let go of. I was scared… scared that I would come back to reality and it wouldn’t be as peaceful as this empty sanctuary felt. But after one glance at a hollow image that looked eerily similar to my mother, Lyra, my eyes snapped open at once.Reality didn’t hit me as hard as I thought it would. Probably because of the man who still lay fast asleep beside me. Aries looked so peaceful, his face slightly scrunched up. But even with that, I didn’t miss how light his heartbeat was—steady, calm, peaceful. Like the same calm flowing through me had reached him as wel

Chapter: Grief Rex’s POVThe walk back home was quiet. Not the kind of silence that came because the storm was finally over, but the quiet, reflective kind.I walked side by side with Aries while Robin trailed behind us with the rest of the warriors. I almost asked him to go with Julian, but I could tell something was wrong by the way Julian had left with just one glance. So, I stayed quiet. We could talk when he returned.Instead, my head kept replaying everything that had gone down today, my heart clenching every time Lilly’s face came to mind. I wanted to sit and cry, cry everything out, blame someone, anyone, for all that was lost. But even that couldn’t take the pain away.The fight was over. Ron was dead, and the Elders were taken care of. But the hope, the rage, the determination that had once carried me were now drained, leaving nothing but a hollow ache.Was this how the end of a battle was supposed to feel? Was this the end of the prophecy, the purpose of the Elegida’s existence?Those que

The mafia boss is the man of my dreams
Have you ever had the same dream so often that it starts to blur into reality?
The same man.
The same scent.
The same fire, except every night, it’s a different position, a different fantasy… and by morning, it all slips away.
That has been my life for weeks, until everything changed.
Just when I thought I could finally get over the stranger in my dreams, I convinced myself that my new boss might be the distraction I needed. A way out of my sex-starved world of fantasies.
Then he walked in.
Hotter than my imagination ever allowed.
Sharper. Darker. Dangerous.
And with one look, I knew.
It was him.
The man who owned my nights.
But who was he?
And why was he suddenly here in my reality?
“I own this place,” he growled, his deep voice making my knees weak as his grip tightened around my wrist. “I own this motherfucker you call a boss… and I own you too.”
His black eyes locked on mine, dark and unreadable.
“So you better start walking before I take you right here and now.”
He meant every word.
He dragged me out with him, and everything I thought I knew cracked open. Was this the beginning of my love story with the man they called the Mafia Boss? Were my dreams finally becoming real?
But with constant gunshots, threats, and attempted abductions…
I’m starting to realize this might not be the fairytale I imagined.
And my life may never go back to normal. Not ever again. But I don’t seem to mind anymore.

Chapter: Chapter 11 I was stunned, too stunned to speak or even move. Because tell me why I was still standing in that same spot even minutes after Knight had walked away. I couldn’t tell if it was our interaction that had left me frozen or if my brain was fried from how cute he looked when he laughed. Right now, I was leaning toward both. When I finally came to my senses, I leaned against the wall behind me and scrolled through my phone—only to realize he’d deleted all the pictures I took. Of course. Still, I counted this mission as a win. He said I made his day brighter. I made him laugh. If that wasn’t progress, then I didn’t know what was. I couldn’t wait for the next time we’d meet. I dragged myself back to my office and buried my head in documents until it was time to go home. The moment work ended, I practically sprinted to Jean’s car. “You will not believe what miracle happened today!” I screamed the second I got into the seat. Jean rolled his eyes slightly before plastering a smi

Chapter: Chapter 10Knight’s POVI was already beyond irritated walking into that company, and my annoyance only deepened when I heard that girl utter my name. Like I’d told her before, whoever couldn’t keep their mouth shut would have a lot to answer for. I came here fully prepared to rage at Conan, but now he’d added yet another offense to his crawling incompetence.Aria was bold, I’d give her that. But I wasn’t in the mood to play whatever game she thought she was running when she said she was interested in me. I wasn’t naïve.Still, as I walked away from her, my jaw remained clenched—even though a smirk tugged at my lips. I genuinely hoped we never crossed paths again. She was trouble, the kind I had no intention of bothering myself with.I pushed open Conan’s office door without hesitation. The moment his eyes met mine, he jumped to his feet and bowed.“Boss,” he muttered.I rolled my eyes and motioned for him to come closer.“Are you planning to keep hiding behind that goddamn desk,” I seethed, “or

Chapter: Chapter 9I didn’t know whether I was dreaming or awake as I watched my mystery man walk past me without sparing me a glance. But the moment that familiar scent reached me, that intoxicating perfume—I turned back immediately and called the name I’d learned only hours ago, before he could walk away again.“Knight!”I tried to keep my excitement under wraps. I wasn’t sure if it worked, and frankly, I didn’t care. I was excited to see him. When he turned to meet my gaze, a smile crept onto my lips as I took in his features once again.He looked even more handsome today, if that was even possible. The brown suit he wore complemented him perfectly, that damn custom-made suit. His jaw was clenched as he approached me slowly, and even with that emotionless expression, he looked like a Calvin Klein model.Just… with more clothes.But imagine him without—Okay, okay. Calm down, Aria.I tried to steady my breathing as he finally stopped in front of me.“How do you know my name?” he asked immediately.His

Chapter: Chapter 8Knight’s POVI walked toward my car, a smirk still playing on my lips.I hadn’t expected to meet anyone who would make me laugh when I came here strictly for business, but her making me laugh was all it was. Nothing more. The girl was cute, no doubt, and she looked like the kind of trouble that came wrapped in a smile, but that was where the interaction ended.I wasn’t here to find a woman.If I wanted someone to warm my bed, I wouldn’t have to lift a finger.“Conan isn’t here, huh,” I muttered as I approached the car where Rowan waited. He shook his head slightly, and I rolled my eyes. Even with whatever time I’d wasted inside, I still beat him down here.Talk about Incompetence.I slid into the car, resting my head against the seat and letting out a slow sigh. “How long does it take to bring one folder downstairs?”Minutes passed before I spotted him dragging his feet toward the car.“Get the document from him,” I said. “I’m not stepping down to see his face.”Rowan moved immediatel

So the moment I was dressed, I was out the door, sliding into Jean’s car that was already waiting outside.The ride was quiet. Not because there was nothing to say, but because my thoughts were stuck replaying last night’s dream. Not the dream itself or the heat it brought—but the reason his face flashed through my mind right before I woke up.Was I already so obsessed that I was inserting him into everything? Even dreams about that mystery stranger I’d never seen before?If this was obsession, I needed a way out—and fast.I’d met the man once. Once. I couldn’t go spiraling down some rabbit hole already. That wasn’t me. I’d never been this affected by a man before. It wasn’t the Aria way.“We’re here already, miss,” Jean said, snapping me out of my thoughts as he turned off the engine

I had so many questions—both sane and insane ones.Who was he?Why was he here?How was he so freaking hot?And did I really hear him call me cute… or was I just tripping because I got lost in his looks and that dominant aura that clung to him?Hell, I wasn’t even mad that he assumed I was a hoe. I was far more curious about his identity than some ridiculous label I knew wasn’t true.When I arrived, I slipped back into my seat and finally let out the biggest sigh I could manage, my eyes drifting toward Conan’s office. He was the only one who might know who that man was. But was I really willing to ask him, knowing he was a sick weirdo who clearly wanted nothing more than to sleep with me?Yeah.

Nightmare turned love
I came to this new school with one goal—stay invisible.
No drama. No chaos. Just finish the semester and get out.
But everything changed the moment I laid eyes on him—Aiden Cross. Rich, arrogant, dangerously charming. The school's golden boy and certified heartbreaker. He had no business looking at me, let alone touching me.
And yet, there he was, lips still warm from kissing another girl, smirking as he walked straight toward me… and pulled me into his world with one simple, cocky line:
“Care to join?”
From that moment on, my plan to stay out of trouble was officially ruined.
Now, I’m skipping school, arguing with him like we’ve known each other for years, sharing moments I swore I’d never allow, and feeling things I can't ignore. But Aiden? He hides behind jokes and a player reputation—brushing off anything real like it’s just another game.
He’s everything I told myself to avoid. So why does my heart race every time he’s near?
Between surprise kisses in the cafeteria, his jealousy-fueled fights, and our late-night talks that cut deeper than I ever expected, I’m starting to realize one thing:
Sometimes the person you least expect becomes the one you can’t let go.
But can I trust him with my heart? Or will he leave me like he does everyone else. He was supposed to be my nightmare.
Now… he might just be my love story.

Chapter: Love NOVA’S POV Walking through those doors after what felt like forever was surreal, at least to my dramatic self. School was back in session, which meant we were returning to our usual, sometimes repetitive routine one I didn’t hate as much anymore. The hallways were buzzing with noise, and, as expected, all eyes were on us, like we’d suddenly grown two extra heads over the break. The old me would’ve been bothered by how people couldn’t mind their business this early in the day. But just one glance at the people beside me boosted my confidence. With Aiden’s hand in mine—like it had always belonged there and Eli practically glued to my brother, I had nothing to worry about. Well, except maybe hoping I sounded a bit more attractive in their gossip. “Do you think they’re still surprised seeing us together, based on all these stares?” Aiden asked as we turned a corner. “I think they’re more baffled about that couple,” I said, nodding toward Eli and Arnold. “I don’t even blame them, re

Chapter: Excitement Nova’s POVThat night was, if I dare say, one of the best I’ve had in forever. Just lying there with Aiden, all cuddled under the sheets, made me happier than I could even admit.Since Eli wasn’t blowing up my phone either, I figured his night had gone just as well as mine, and that was enough to keep my hyper mood buzzing into the morning.School was resuming in just a few days, and I knew we’d be thrown back into all that chaos again. But this time, I wasn’t dreading it. In fact, I was actually looking forward to it. My original plan of keeping my head down and just surviving until graduation was long gone, abandoned like a half-finished diet schedule.Now? I was more than ready to stir some chaos of my own and actually enjoy my school life to the fullest. With Aiden, Eli, and even Jace by my side, I knew I could count on that.Me and Aiden stood by the car, waiting for our new couple, who were taking forever to come downstairs.“You don’t think they got lost, do you?” I asked, squi

Chapter: Without a doubt Nova’s POVAs Aiden and I strolled away from the beautifully set picnic, leaving my brother and Eli behind, I was already grinning, fully aware of what was bound to happen while we were gone.“It was a lot easier to get out of there than I expected,” Aiden said as he slowly slipped his hand into mine.“I guess Eli’s constant delusion finally paid off this time,” I replied with a smile. “But for real though, why is everywhere suddenly so empty?” I glanced around curiously. “Does such a fancy hotel even have a closing time?”“It’s not closed, Nova.” His grin was the kind that screamed I’m up to something.My eyes narrowed. “Then what?”“Well, I pulled a few tiny strings to give us all some well-deserved privacy.”I stopped in my tracks, eyes widening. “You reserved the whole hotel?” I whisper-yelled. “That’s not the definition of privacy, Cross!” I swatted his hand softly. “You probably just inconvenienced a lot of people!” My pout deepened as he chuckled, like this was all some joke.“

Chapter: CertainArnold’s POVI couldn’t explain how happy I was seeing Eli satisfied with the plans I’d made. Choosing the hotel wasn’t easy, I wanted a place he’d actually love, and with his personality, yeah, that wasn’t exactly simple. But I went out of my way to make sure it was right for him.After getting the place, Aiden handled most of the work from there. I guess connections pay off at times like this. I just told him what I needed, and he assured me I’d get exactly that. Honestly, I was impressed with the attention to detail.The night lights were the highlight, if you ask me. It was like watching a sunset come alive.We sat on the blanket for close to thirty minutes, my hand in Eli’s while we laughed, joked, and munched on the snacks spread out around us. My palms were getting sweaty from nerves. The time to finally pop the big question was drawing near.I didn’t know exactly why I was scared, after all, Eli had made it clear the other day—but for some reason I still worried. That he might

Chapter: Surprises Eli’s POVI was weirdly excited about this picnic. We’d never had such a chill hangout, all four of us together, so yeah I had high expectations for fun. And okay… maybe that was mostly because Arnold and I were in the almost-dating phase now. Fine, it was a huge part of it, but hey, I’m not shy to admit it.It hadn’t been easy getting here with him. Deciding he was worth the risk, worth the possible heartbreak, had taken me forever. But once I did… everything else just fell into place.Still, no time for deep thoughts. Nova had told me to “dress nice,” which was hilarious, like I don’t always look like a snack. I finally settled on baggy brown pants, a cropped tee, and a couple of chain accessories. Cute, but not “trying too hard.” Perfect. After styling my hair, I headed out, only to see Arnold’s car waiting.I slid into the passenger seat with a grin. “I’m not sorry for being fashionably late.”He chuckled, starting the car. “And I’m not sorry for not calling you out.

For a picnic.What universe did a normal picnic turn into some rich-people outing?“Okay, I’ll get back to you by tonight,” he said, finally ending the call and turning to face me.I raised a brow. “Now can you at least explain why I just heard words like venue and exclusive setup when all we’re doing is picking a spot for our picnic?”“It’s more than just a picnic, Nova.” He dropped onto the couch, pulled my legs across his lap, and gave me that look. “It’s more than that, love. At least for us. And especially for your brother.”My eyes widened, a grin spreading before I could stop it. I sat up so fast my legs nearly smacked him. “Wait. Wait. He’s finally asking him out?” I squealed, grabbing Aiden’s arm and shaking it lightly. “
