Alpha’s Rejected Luna, Reigning Lycan Queen

Erica's POV "I-I didn't do anything!" I screamed as I was forced to my knees on the cold stone ground. I was covered in blood in the living room of the pack house of Nightfall Pack. A crowd gathered around, their eyes fixed on me. The floor felt like ice against my skin. My whole body felt like it was on fire. "Heh!" A girl's mocking laugh rang in my ears. Then I felt a kick on my shoulder. My body hurled to the floor, only to feel a hard weight on my chest. "So this is so-called pure and flawless Erica Wilson? The daughter of our respective gamma?" Nova Blackwood sneered, pressing her boot harder against my body. I hissed, shutting my eyes in pain. Nova was our pack's former Beta, Blake Blackwood's daughter. She accused me of killing her brother, the current beta of our pack. I was an adopted daughter of the gamma of this pack. But it was not my only identity, I was the future Luna of this pack. I lifted my head with pain. "Why? Why are you framing me?" I asked Nova hoarse

I could not tear my eyes away when the man was fighting with the wolves. As he was winning over them, the wolves started to run away with their wounded bodies. However, it seemed they left their leader to the man. The air was thick. The wounded wolf lay broken in the slush, its gray fur turned red with blood. The mysterious man raised his hand as he was holding a weapon, a sharp wooden stake. He was going to kill that gray wolf in front of my eyes. There was no hatred in his eyes, but only grimness. He was inches away from killing him. "NO!" The word burst from my mouth with a loud gasp. Before the wooden stake could touch the wolf's body, I moved from the tree and rushed toward the mysterious man. My hands were small and trembling before him. I held his wrist with a shaky grip and whispered, "Please don't. Don't commit such cruelty." The man paused. He glanced at my hands, which were holding his wrist. Then he shifted his gaze to my face. I was too afraid to

Erica's POV I was in pain as they were kicking me in my abdomen. I screamed, "Please let me go!" They were stubborn, ready to kill me. I gathered my courage and pushed the two men away and started running. I was alone on the border, and two rogues were following me to kill. I had no idea how I reached here. I had no weapons with me to defend myself. I was an omega who did not have the strength to fight against the two men. But soon, another two men started to rush in my direction. They grabbed me. A punch landed on my cheek. "Ahh!" My face turned, and I felt my jaw break. The four men gathered together. I saw lust in their eyes, which scared me to death. A man's hand reached my dress; he was ready to tear it when the other man stopped him. "He is Alpha Justin's mate. We can't use her body. But we can do what we are told to do." Then, as if it enraged them to damp their lust, they started hitting me more. I cried, begging them not to hit me. But they kept hitti

“Kael...” I breathed, relief flooding through me.He looked at me calmly. “You look pale.”“I’m fine,” I lied. “Thank you... for healing me. And for last night.”His gaze lingered on me for a second, unreadable.Suddenly, “Damn the shift,” Kael said coldly. “Why are you so desperate to crawl back to people who treat you like nothing?”Before I could respond, hurried footsteps echoed outside.“Erica!”It was Lima.She rushed in, breathless, clutching something in her hand—a small bundle of wildflowers. Her face was pale with panic.“Why are you bringing me flowers?” I asked, confused.Her eyes were red. “It’s not for celebration...It’s from someone near the lower valley. They passed me this and told me to give it to you secretly.”My heart skipped. “What is it?”She grabbed my hands tightly.“Salma is in danger.”Everything inside me froze.“What?” My voice cracked.“They said someone from Nightfall Pack took her away this morning. She was sick already. Erica… I think they’re hurting

My knees gave up and I fell to the ground. The three men's knees shook, and they also fell on their knees beside me. The growl was so powerful that it shook Justin too. But he controlled himself. The roar and that strong voice narrowed Justin's eyes. He looked behind me, frowning deeply. With pain and intoxicating eyes, I turned my head slowly to follow Justin's gaze. At that time, I saw a dark silhouette looming behind me. It was a tall man, covering himself with a long black cloak. When he came to a stop just behind me, everyone could see only half of his face. Because his half face was covered by the black hood of the cloak. I couldn't see him clearly because my vision was blurry. My tears made it even worse. His strong hand reached out, and he grabbed my arm. I let out a gasp when he pulled me up to my feet, tucked me against his chest, and wrapped his cloak around me. I was shocked when the familiar scent hit my nostrils. I slowly raised my head, and my eyes widened whe
