True and Fake Heiress

I had become the Luna of the pack. Mom called it a blessing. She said I'd married up, and that I should bring my sister, Ruby, into the same circles. Ruby was already scheming for a noble match. That was the whole point of her come-of-age celebration. I hated all the schemes. And the lilies on the table made it hard to breathe. My throat began to swell. My chest tightened. I realized I was allergic But I couldn't rest. "Bring Ruby around. Say hello to the wealthy families. You're the Luna. They'll treat you with respect," Mom said. I stayed. The wine she handed me made things worse. And my pampered sister, out of jealousy, forced an handful of allergy medicine down my throat. It was the kind forbidden for pregnant women. And I was six months carrying a wolf pup. In tearing, gut-wrenching pain, my pup left me. Mom cried again and again, begging for forgiveness. I pulled my hand away. Whatever love I had for her was gone.

Everly POVToday was my sister Ruby's coming-of-age celebration.My family had gone all out with a lavish affair.Xavier and I had barely stepped into the ballroom, his phone rang."Everly, I'm so sorry. There's an emergency meeting at the company." Still, he came to greet my Mom and Ruby. Handed over the gift himself.The table settings were exquisite. An abundance of lilies arranged across the centerpieces. Within moments of sitting down, my chest felt tight. My breathing grew hard.I leaned toward Ruby. "Could we... remove the lilies? I think I might be allergic."Ruby pouted. "I hired a professional photography team today. No flowers would ruin the shots."Mom turned toward Xavier, her smile a little too bright. "Everly doesn't have allergies. She's been healthy since childhood."Ruby sneered, "Figures. Everly's a Luna now. Suddenly even the air we breathe isn't good enough for her."The wolf pup shifted inside me. I cupped my belly. "The doctor told me, pregnancy can chang

Everly POVMom cut the call short and dragged me along."Mr. and Mrs. Grayson are about to leave! Go stop them." She whispered by my ear. "Ruby's engagement with them hasn't been settled yet."Her nails dug into my skin, sharp enough to make my breath catch."Mom, I won’t go. I’m sick now. Can’t you see it?"Ruby trailed behind, clutching her skirt.Her eyes brimmed with raw envy and naked ambition."Everly's already married into the high ranks. She's surely trying to block my way in," Mom's voice pressed over mine, insistent and sharp. "I'm counting on you, Everly. If you don't speak up, they won't even throw a glance at us."I wanted to turn and walk away, but with so many guests around, I let it go.When we were in front of the Graysons, Mom forced a smile, smooth and practiced."Mr. and Mrs. Grayson— It's such an honor to have you at tonight's celebration."They nodded. Politely. Their smiles were elegant but distant. The air thickened, heavy with tension.I just wanted to leav

Everly POVMom had left, and Ruby came in holding a glass of water."Take these, Everly," she said, her voice unnaturally soft.I grabbed her arm and whispered. "Take me to the hospital... I can't breathe."Ruby shrugged off my hand, her smile stiff. "It's just an allergy. A few pills and you'll be fine."Before I could reject, she forced the pills into my mouth and shoved the water down. "Rest up. Mom said you'll need to be back out there for the second half."The door clicked shut, and the room fell silent.The pills seemed to take effect. My throat eased, and air finally filled my lungs more fully. But dizziness hit me harder than ever.I pressed a hand to my belly, and felt a twist from within.It grew stronger, tighter with each breath.No. This isn't right!The dizziness worsened. I tried to leave. But the doorknob wouldn’t budge— she had locked it from the outside!"Open the door! Ruby—!" I pounded with all my strength.Her voice, cold and detached, floated from the other

Xavier POVI pulled the car to the side of the road and ran toward the banquet hall.Halfway there, I smelled it.Blood. Death.My chest tightened.Ice filled my veins. I let out a guttural, choked growl, "No. Not her."Earlier, during the meeting, her faint call suddenly came through my mate bond. Grief. Despair. Then it vanished in an instant.I reached her through the mate bond, but there was no answer. I called her phone. It went straight to voicemail.My heart was hammering in my chest.I couldn't sit. I stopped the meeting and rushed back.As I approached the banquet hall, the smell of blood and death became overwhelming.I dashed in.My eyes darted across the stage. My heart stopped.Everly stood there, fully transformed into a white wolf, her hind legs streaked with blood.And her mouth... was clutching something pink."Everly—!" My eyes stung. My chest felt like it was splitting. Pain shot through me.She glanced at me with tears. Then collapsed to the cold floor.I r

Everly POVI held on myself with the last bit of strength.And finally, Xavier rushed into the banquet hall.His golden eyes burned blood red with fury.I went limp all over. I collapsed.He's here. Then I'm safe now.I didn't know how long I was out. But the intense pain woke me up from a coma—it hurt, really.The light above me was glaring. The metal pulled somewhere inside me indicating to me that the doctors were working.The cold touch and the sound of metal collision told me the truth: the small life inside me was no longer there.I wanted to cry, but I can't shed a single tear.The scenes in the small room kept flashing in my head.Pain and cold tangled together. My body wouldn't stop shaking.I bit down hard.I told myself again and again—I will definitely make them pay!When I opened my eyes again, Xavier was there.Guilt and grief shadowed his face.Still, he gave me the warmest smile."Everly, don't move," he said, pressing me back to the bed. "Rest w

Everly POV"Xavier, I'm fine. Go handle your affairs."He watched me. Worry didn't leave his face."Everly, You just went through so much. I have to stay with you."I smiled. I touched his cheek."Trust me. I'm Luna, right?"After Xavier left, I went straight to Mom's house.I climbed the yard fence and crept to the window.Mom and Ruby sat at the table.Mom wiped her eyes. Her voice shook."I didn't think Everly would be hurt this badly. If I'd known, I never would've dragged her into it，to take you to meet those wealthy families.Ruby put on a sad face and soothed her."Mom, how can you blame yourself? You just cared more about me, that made Everly jealous."She sighed. "Now that this has happened, my chance to marry into a rich family is ruined. What will I do?"Mom rubbed her back. "Ruby, you're still young. I'm more worried about Everly now. She's so badly hurt. She may never have children again. How can she be Luna then?"Her voice rushed. Panic under it."As L

Everly POVI was home from the hospital.I lay in bed when the maid came in."Madam, your mother's here to see you," she said.Mom stepped closer.Her eyes lowered, not daring to meet mine."Everly... how are you feeling?"I said nothing.The silence between us felt heavy..She took out a small box and held it up."I... went a long way to get these herbs. They're good for recovery after... after a miscarriage. I'll show the maid how to brew them."Still, I didn't look at her. Didn't speak.Some things cut too deep to forgive.Tears welled in her eyes. She wiped them away with trembling fingers."Everly, I didn't know it would be that serious. I just... I only wanted Ruby's marriage to go well..."At that, I finally looked up, coldly."Since Ruby came back five years ago, I stopped being your daughter. You only ever saw her."The words hurt even as I said them. My chest tightened.Tears slipped down anyway."Don't cry, Everly..." She rushed to grab a tissue, trying

Xavier POVI was buried in work, though my mind kept drifting to Everly.I wanted to stay with her, but she kept insisting I go.There was too much waiting for me at the office, so I left.The secretary called through the intercom."Ruby's here to see you."Ruby?Why would she?Before I could finish the thought, she stepped in and turned the lock behind her."Xavier, I came to apologize."She sat across from me. Her face was composed.But her eyes— Surely there was guilt there, but something else too. Something sharp. Ambition."You should be apologizing to Everly, not to me," I said. "I don't have time for this."I hoped she'd take the hint and leave.Ordinarily, someone like her would never set foot in my office.It was only because she was Everly's sister.But Ruby didn't leave."I heard your Luna can't have children anymore," she said."She can't give you heirs. That means she's failed you, hasn't she?"My pen stopped.I looked up."What are you trying t
