MasukFor eight years, Cecilia Moore was the perfect Luna, loyal, and unmarked. Until the day she found her Alpha mate with a younger, purebred she-wolf in his bed. In a world ruled by bloodlines and mating bonds, Cecilia was always the outsider. But now, she's done playing by wolf rules. She smiles as she hands Xavier the quarterly financials-divorce papers clipped neatly beneath the final page. “You're angry?” he growls. “Angry enough to commit murder,” she replies, voice cold as frost. A silent war brews under the roof they once called home. Xavier thinks he still holds the power-but Cecilia has already begun her quiet rebellion. With every cold glance and calculated step, she's preparing to disappear from his world-as the mate he never deserved. And when he finally understands the strength of the heart he broke... It may be far too late to win it back.

It looked like a luxury yacht floating in a sea of lawn.Classic Yvonne.For someone who fluttered through Denver's high society like it was her private runway, she kept her actual home life behind velvet ropes.Very few people ever made it past these gates."Miss Yvonne is in the media room on the third floor," the butler said, his tone so flat it could've been automated."You can head up yourself, Miss Cecilia."I nodded and nudged Tang toward the elevator.Everything was spotless, like always. It felt more like a showroom than a home.We opened the media room door.Yvonne was sprawled across a custom leather couch, looking like a soap opera actress on her break. She wore a shiny silk slip dress with so many cutouts it barely counted as clothing.A small mountain of snacks surrounded her like temple offerings, and an action movie blared from
Cecilia's povLiam's words hit me like a jolt. For a second, I couldn't breathe.But he was watching, so I didn't flinch.I kept my expression steady.I forced myself to look confused and hoped it was convincing."Zane went into my room?" I asked lightly."That's... odd. Maybe he mixed up the doors?"Liam shook his head, thoughtful."A high-profile CEO wandering into the wrong room? That doesn't sound like him. Guys like that don't make careless mistakes.""People get distracted," I offered, even though a chill had already crept up my spine."Cassian's room is near mine. Maybe Zane was walking around, thinking about work, and just kept going. It happens."I hoped the excuse landed, but the look in Liam's eyes told me it didn't."Cecilia," he said quietly, "I haven't told Alpha Sebastian yet. I'm telling you first because I think you should be careful. It's better to be safe than blindsided."I nodded, grateful for the warning."Thanks, Liam. I mean it.""Good." He stood up, gathered the em
Cecilia's pov"What about this afternoon?" I asked suddenly, right as Sebastian's car rolled out of the apartment complex.Sebastian kept his eyes on the road, calm as ever, as we crawled into morning traffic."You look like I just told you we're having dinner with the Elder Council," he said with a soft laugh. "If you don't want to go, then don't. I'll say you're not feeling well, or that the scent of blood at the infirmary is making you nauseous. They'll back off."Still, anxiety twisted in my stomach."If I skip it, they'll think something's up. Like I'm hiding something," I muttered."But if I do go, any decent doctor in that room will figure it out in five seconds. I'm pregnant, Sebastian. It's not exactly subtle."A faint smile tugged at his lips. "So you've already thought it through."I turned to stare out the window, irritation simmering just beneath the surface.After a long pause, I asked the question that had been eating at me for days. "When the baby gets here… do you thin
Cecilia's povI watched as Cassian flashed a knowing smile but said nothing.Zane sat at the edge of the bed, pushing up his glasses like it was more habit than necessity."I won't let anything happen to you," he said, his voice just a little too steady to sound natural."I've brought in a top-tier team. They'll keep an eye on you, day and night.""Throwing money at me again, huh?" Cassian replied with his usual smart-ass grin."We're family. You don't have to thank me," Zane said, his tone softening a little too conveniently."I just want you safe. Grandma's been asking about you nonstop. You should stop by and see her when you get back.""I will," Cassian nodded."She's not as strong as she used to be. Another scare might really shake her up.Her birthday's next month, so just... don't bring this up."That sudden tenderness in his voice made my stomach twist.Cassian gave him a look that said he wasn't buying it."How thoughtful of you," he said dryly. "Don't worry, I won't say a wor
