“I’ll marry you and become your Rogue Luna.”

Alpha David seemed completely taken aback that I would agree to such an absurd condition.he stood there, frozen like a statue, his jaw slack, his expression a mix of disbelief and confusion.

“You… you, you—are you serious?” he finally stammered, his eyes wide as if he’d just seen a ghost.

"Three days from now, I’ll come to marry you. No backing out."

I shrugged with a smirk. “Yes,I said it, Never take-backs.”

The poor guy practically tripped over his own feet as he scrambled down the wall, clearly terrified I might change my mind. Just as he reached the ground, he stumbled and almost faceplanted.

I laughed, the sound light and genuine. For someone with the reputation of being a rogue Alpha to the core, David was unexpectedly... charming in an awkward kind of way. Not the arrogant brute the rumors painted him to be.

My amusement was cut short when a voice interrupted my thoughts, sliding into my mind through the pack link.

“Gamma,” came the calm, measured voice of my servant. “Alpha Kevin is waiting for you in the living room.”

The laughter vanished from my face in an instant. My wolf, usually heard this will be happy or wag her tail, but now went deathly silent.

By the time I reached the living room, my smile was gone, replaced by a mask of cool detachment. Alpha Kevin was standing there, his posture as confident as ever, but the forced smile on his lips gave him away.

“Alpha Kevin,” I said evenly, “shouldn’t you be at home with your new Luna? What urgent business brings you here?”

His grin faltered for a split second before he forced it wider. “Diana, you know I wouldn’t come if it wasn’t important.”

I crossed my arms, leaning against the doorframe with an arched brow. “Important enough to leave your honeymoon?”

He sighed, running a hand through his hair. “Sandra’s too soft. She’d be ruined if I let her marry that rogue. You know she wouldn’t survive in a life like that.”

I tilted my head, my tone laced with mockery. “And yet, you didn’t hesitate to ruin me and my family’s reputation. Funny how that works.”

His face fell, but he quickly recovered. “Diana, let’s not do this. I didn’t have a choice. You know I care about you.”

“Alpha Kevin,” I said, voice cold and steady, “our engagement is over. There’s nothing more to say.”

He took a step closer, his hand reaching out as if to placate me. “Diana, don’t be rash. Just because I married her doesn’t mean things have to change between us.”

I stared at him, incredulous. He actually believed the garbage coming out of his mouth.

“Sandra won’t mind, She’s sweet, understanding. You just need to be patient for now. Be my girlfriend until things settle. When you have my pup, I’ll bring you back to my estate. We’ll be together—all three of us.”

"“You and Sandra are both important to me, and I swear I’ll treat you equally. Neither of you will feel neglected.”

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The audacity of this man, to ask the strongest female Gamma in the pack to be his mistress.

Even if I were willing, my family would never tolerate such humiliation.

I laughed, a sharp, humorless sound that made him flinch. “I, Diana Gilbert, won't be anyone’s mistress.”

His smile faltered, annoyance flickering in his eyes. “Diana, don’t make this difficult. Being my mistress isn’t as bad as you’re making it out to be. I’ll make sure no one disrespects you.Why make this so difficult for me?”

I’m making it difficult for him?

I almost laughed in disbelief. Was I the one who had disrupted someone’s wedding, dragged another woman to the registry office, and left my family in disgrace?

I looked at him mockingly and repeated, “I said, I, Diana Gilbert, will never—never—be anyone’s mistress.”

He scowled. “You’re being unreasonable! The entire Midnight Ridge Pack knows you’re my mate. Do you think anyone else would want you now? You’re already ruined.”

His words were like a dagger, but I didn’t flinch. My wolf growled low in my mind, her hackles raised. If she had her way, she’d rip his throat out for daring to speak to me like that. But I wouldn’t give him the satisfaction of seeing me lose control.

I stood taller, my voice steady and unwavering. “I, Diana Gilbert, would rather live alone for all of my life than settle for being your second choice.”

"Beta Diana,Without me, no one else will ever want you.” "He stormed out, his word lingering like an unwelcome guest. The slam of the door echoed in the room, but I didn’t move. My hands clenched into fists and a bitter ache in my chest.

From the moment I turned 18, I had taken over my father’s Gamma position, thanks to my rare white wolf. That same day, I found my mate.

When I first saw Alpha Kevin, my wolf howled with joy, “Mate!”

The golden boy of the Midnight Ridge Pack was my destined mate.

Even now, years after we graduated, we were still the star couple of the Midnight Ridge Pack’s No 1 Academy.

But the Alpha Kevin who once adored me, who couldn’t bear to see me suffer even the slightest pain—that Kevin was gone.

The man before me now was Sandra’s mate.

The moment he chose Sandra over me, ignoring my love and trampling on my heart, I should have let go.

But I couldn’t. Ten years of history between us—I couldn’t believe it would lose to their mere six months of knowing each other.

Yet, I was wrong. Completely, utterly wrong.

Diana was mine regardless.—A year into our marriage, everything changed.It was an ordinary morning—I was sitting on the couch, chewing absentmindedly on a strip of bacon while Diana stared at a pregnancy test.She blinked.

    I didn’t return to disturb Alpha David. Instead, I went back to the rogue lair’s villa, my heart still pounding from everything I had overheard at the Seductress Club. My wolf was unusually quiet, as if processing it all alongside me. As soon as I stepped into the study, I froze. The walls—every inch of them—were covered in portraits of me. Sketches. Oil paintings. Watercolors. Some detailed, some rushed, all of them unmistakably me. Different ages, different expressions—my laughter, my scowls, even the rare moments when I thought no one was watching. And the dates… Some of these were from years ago. My breath hitched. My fingers traced one of the paintings—a delicate piece where I was caught mid-smile, as if David had frozen time itself just to keep the moment alive. I swallowed hard. Each stroke, each detail, each shade of color—this was love. Love so deep, so raw, that it had been poured out onto canvas over the years without me ever realizing it. A lump formed i

    I followed Alpha Kevin into the VIP section of the Seductress Club without resistance, though my wolf stirred uneasily at the heavy scent of alcohol, lust, and something far more feral hanging in the air. This place reeked of trouble, and it wasn’t just from the humans who frequented it—there were wolves here too, some barely suppressing their instincts, their eyes glowing in the dim light.Then, amidst the chaotic hum of conversation and the bass-heavy music pounding from the main floor, I heard his voice.Alpha David.A chill ran down my spine.Then came his words, clear —"Let me just say this first—if you invite me to a place like this again, I’m not coming."A teasing voice responded, "Oh? Since when did the rogue Alpha turn into a henpecked husband?"Laughter rippled through the room, but my focus was on David. My nails dug into my palms, waiting for his response."You wouldn’t understand," another voice chimed in. "This guy’s been smitten with Diana Gilbert since he was a kid.

    "Diana, please, I beg you, give Kevin back to me!"Sandra’s wail shattered the lively hum of conversation, her voice raw with desperation. Every head in the gathering turned toward us, curious eyes locking on the spectacle unfolding.I blinked down at her. She was on her knees, tears streaming down her face, her sobs punctuated by hiccups."I can’t live without him," she cried, clutching at the hem of my dress .I frowned, already feeling a headache coming on. "Stand up first."Sandra shook her head violently, her tear-filled eyes pleading. "No, I won’t get up unless you agree!"The gathered wolves murmured amongst themselves, intrigued by the unfolding drama. I could hear snippets of their whispers—Did you hear? Alpha Kevin wants a divorce because of her! Poor Sandra. Imagine groveling like this.Taking a deep breath, I tried to keep my voice level. "Sandra, whatever happened between me and Alpha Kevin is long over. What happens in your marriage has nothing to do with me.""But he has

    Alpha Kevin’s cheekbone was bruised, his lip was split, and scratch marks marred his face—he looked utterly disheveled. When he saw Alpha David holding my hand, his eyes instantly reddened. I frowned slightly. "Alpha Kevin, do you need something?" His voice trembled, barely holding it together. “Do you still hate me?” I shook my head. "It’s in the past." His eyes lit up, mistakenly thinking I no longer blamed him. “Diana,” he said, stepping closer. “I’ve already told Sandra I want a divorce. Can’t you give me another chance? I swear to Moon Godness, I’ll never mess up again.” Alpha David’s grip on my hand tightened, and I could feel the storm brewing beside me. Before I could stop him, he grabbed Kevin by the collar.“You’ve got some nerve,” David growled, his wolf rumbling beneath the surface. His fist was cocked back, ready to strike, but I stepped between them.“David,” I warned, placing a hand on his chest, “stand down. We’re not savages.” Well, technically, he was, but

    I didn’t look back even once.The moment he registered his marriage with Sandra, it was over between us.The wedding convoy drove for over an hour before arriving at the rogue den’s mansion. Alpha David took my hand as we prepared to enter.Just then, the sharp screech of tires skidding against asphalt rang out behind us, slicing through the cool evening air. "Diana!" A familiar voice roared, and my stomach dropped. Alpha Kevin had somehow tracked us down. Alpha David patted me reassuringly. "Go inside. I’ll handle him."I hesitated for a second before decisively stepping into Alpha David’s mansion.Fifteen minutes later, David strode into the grand hall. His shirt was slightly rumpled, the top button undone, but otherwise, he looked completely unscathed. Of course, this was David’s territory. Kevin would have been a fool to think he could pull anything here. "Handled," he said simply, offering a quick smile before we turned back to the waiting guests. The ceremony proceeded

    I stared at the sleek black timer in my hands, my heart pounding as the numbers ticked down.10, 9, 8...What was this? A bomb? Had Alpha David planted explosives in the Midnight Ridge Pack?My wolf bristled, ready to lunge into action. I clenched my jaw, eyes darting around for an escape.Then—Boom! Boom!The sky exploded.Not in fire and destruction, but in the most breathtaking display of fireworks I had ever seen. The night lit up in dazzling hues of crimson, sapphire, and gold, the bursts reflecting in my wide eyes. The air smelled of burnt gunpowder and the crisp autumn wind, carrying the distant gasps of onlookers.A deep chuckle rumbled from the man beside me.“Gamma Diana, these fireworks were specially arranged by Alpha David just for you,” the messenger said, his tone laced with amusement. “Do you like them?”I swallowed, still dazed.“…I do.”And I hated that I did.David Wright—the infamous Rogue Alpha feared across the Mississippi—was a man of chaos, but even his madness

    Back then, she was just the illegitimate daughter of the Barlow family, a stray among nobles, tolerated but never truly accepted.At a grand banquet, her sister, Miss Fiona, treated her like a mere servant. When she accidentally spilled wine on Fiona’s silk gown, the entire hall fell silent. A hush of anticipation rippled through the crowd as Fiona, ever the perfect lady in public, cracked her fan shut with an audible snap and delivered a sharp slap across Sandra’s cheek."Know your place," Fiona hissed. "Kneel."Sandra hesitated, her hands trembling. No one moved to help her. No one ever did.That was when Alpha Kevin stepped forward.His golden eyes flashed with barely restrained fury as he caught Fiona’s wrist mid-swing. "Enough," he said, his voice dangerously low. "She’s still your sister."The crowd gasped. Fiona’s face burned with anger, but she swallowed it down, retreating with forced grace.From then on, Kevin became Sandra’s silent protector. He offered her food before anyo

    Alpha David didn’t give me a chance to change my mind. The very next morning, a convoy of wolves from the Rogue Den arrived at the gates of my villa. Their cargo? Twenty-five chests of gold. Yes, you heard that right—one chest for every year of my life. When Alpha David opened those chests in my living room, the dazzling gold nearly blinded me. Honestly, I didn’t know if I should be impressed or worried about getting robbed. My parents weren’t thrilled about Alpha David.“Are you sure about this, Diana?” my mom asked for the tenth time.“Alpha David’s reputation isn’t exactly... spotless,” my dad added. But my mind was made up. “Love or power,” I replied with a shrug, “at least I’ll have one of them.” Now, was Alpha David’s reputation as the Rogue Alpha of the entire Rogue Den a little intimidating? Sure. But he was powerful. His pack is tucked away in the remote Mississippi River region, but it was vast and fiercely strong. That kind of strength came with its own allure.
