Mag-log inAnya was an orphan taken in by the Beta’s family of the Silvercrest Pack but she was never treated as their daughter. While her stepsister Talia was raised as a lady of the pack, Anya grew up as a servant in the very house that was supposed to be her home. She secretly loved Leon, the future Alpha, even though she knew someone like him could never belong to her because he was always meant to marry Talia. On the night of their engagement party, Anya’s life changed forever when she discovered that Leon was her true mate. Before she could even understand what was happening, Leon rejected her in front of the entire pack, choosing duty and status over the mate bond. Humiliated and heartbroken, Anya is forced to leave the only home she has ever known and follow a powerful Alpha who offers her a place in his pack. In a new land, far from Silvercrest, Anya begins to change. Strange abilities awaken inside her and she starts to realize that there are secrets about her past that no one ever told her. The more she learns, the more she understands that she was never meant to live as a servant and that her life was built on lies. As Anya grows stronger and starts to build a new life, the Silvercrest Pack begins to feel the absence of the girl they once treated as nothing. Leon, who once rejected her without hesitation, begins to realize that the bond he broke was not so easy to forget. When the truth about Anya’s identity finally comes to light, will Leon be too late to win back the mate he rejected?
view more_Anya’s POV_The entire evening felt like something from a dream.After we returned from town, I stayed distracted by the strange woman from the jewelry shop. No matter how much I tried to push her words away, they kept returning to me.“You are blinded by trust and cannot see the truth.”The sentence echoed again and again inside my head.I stood near the bedroom window for a long time, staring outside at the darkening sky. The clouds were painted orange and pink by the setting sun and the wind moved softly through the trees around the mansion.Maya stirred quietly inside me. Stop thinking about that woman.“I am trying.”She was strange.“Yes.”And frightening.I wrapped my arms around myself slowly. “Do you think she was telling the truth?”Maya hesitated. I do not know.That answer did not comfort me. A knock sounded on the door before I could think further.“Come in,” I called softly.One of the maids entered with a smile. “Miss Anya, Alpha Jacob asked me to help prepare you for
_Leon’s POV_The drive to Talia’s house felt endless. My hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly that my knuckles turned white. Every part of me burned with humiliation and fury, yet I forced myself to keep driving.This was necessary.That was the only thought keeping me moving forward. I needed to do this for Anya.....for the truth.....for revenge.Shadow remained silent inside me but I could feel his rage simmering beneath the surface. He hated this just as much as I did.When I finally pulled into the driveway of Beta Taylor’s estate, I shut off the engine and sat there for several seconds, staring at the large house ahead of me.My jaw tightened. Then I forced myself out of the car and walked to the front door.There were no guards outside. The estate looked quiet, almost peaceful, which only made my anger worse. While my life was falling apart, they were inside resting comfortably.I knocked.A few moments later, the door swung open.Beta Taylor stood there. The moment he sa
_Anya’s POV_I woke slowly to warmth.For a few soft and peaceful seconds, I did not remember where I was. My body felt heavy with sleep and wrapped in heat. There was something firm and warm pressed behind me. A strong arm was draped around my waist, holding me close against a broad chest. My head was resting against something solid and beneath my cheek, I could hear the slow and steady beat of a heart.My memories came back all at once and I remembered everything that had happened the night before. I remembered the attack, the masked men, the hands around my throat and Jacob bringing me to his room after saving me. Heat rushed to my face when I finally understood where I was. I was lying in Jacob’s bed.And somehow during the night, I had ended up curled completely into his arms.Maya purred happily inside me. We slept very well.“Be quiet,” I muttered silently.Jacob’s deep voice sounded near my ear. It was rough with sleep. “Talking to your wolf this early in the morning?”I froze
_Anya’s POV_My vision was blurred from the lack of air and tears filled my eyes so heavily that I could barely see what was happening around me.Everything looked distorted. Shapes moved in shadows and flashes. My ears rang loudly and my chest burned with pain as I fought to drag air into lungs that would not obey me.Then suddenly the crushing weight above me vanished.The hands around my throat disappeared so fast that I gasped violently, rolling onto my side as I sucked in air in broken and painful breaths. My throat felt like it was on fire. Every inhale stabbed through me but I did not care. I could breathe again.The room exploded into chaos around me. Growls thundered through the darkness. Furniture crashed. A man screamed.I lifted my head weakly. I was still coughing and through my blurred vision I saw a massive black wolf tearing across the room like death itself.It was Jacob's wolf, Storm. His black fur gleamed in the moonlight pouring through the windows. His eyes glowe
