The late afternoon sun bathed the forest path in warm amber light as Evelyn walked the familiar trail toward the cottage she once called home. Every step crunched against the old stones, every breath tasted of pine and memory. The wind rustled through the tall oaks above her, whispering secrets from a life she had buried deep in the shadows of her heart.

This wasn’t the kind of return she had imagined. Not triumphant, not planned—just necessary. Her feet had carried her back to Silvercrest after

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER TWENTY SIX — Into the Heart of the Past

    The morning air was thick with fog as the group prepared to set out. Evelyn stood by her horse, adjusting the straps of her leather gear, her mind focused on the mission ahead. The rising sun peeked over the treetops, casting a pale golden light across the training field. Dew glistened on the blades of grass, and her breath came out in clouds, but she didn’t feel the cold.Kendall approached with a roll of parchment and handed it to her. “Map of the ridge. We marked the last spotted rogue paths and the rumored site where they were digging.”Evelyn nodded. “Thanks.”“Be careful, okay?” Kendall’s voice dropped low. “I know you can take care of yourself, but... this feels bigger. Older.”“It is.” She folded the map and tucked it into her belt. “And if Selena’s really after what I think she is, then we don’t have much time.”Damien mounted his black stallion without a word. He wore his Alpha gear—dark leather layered with silver detailing, a cloak pinned at the shoulder. He looked every b

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE — A Storm Between Them

    The soft rustle of leaves was the only sound that accompanied Evelyn as she walked through the wooded path behind the training grounds. Her boots crunched lightly against the dirt trail, her breath steady, her mind... anything but.The council meeting had been long, draining, and filled with thinly veiled power plays. Some still questioned her role, others whispered about her return as if she were a ghost come back to stir the graves of memory. And then there was Damien—always Damien—sitting across from her with those brooding eyes, trying to read her like an old book he once burned but now regretted losing.She didn’t speak to him during the entire council. She didn’t need to. Her silence had become a language of its own—one Damien had no dictionary for.She exhaled deeply, placing her hand on the bark of a tall cedar. The moment her fingers touched the rough wood, her wolf stirred.> He's watching again.Let him watch.You’re still hurt.I’m still standing.A sudden gust of wind ruf

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR – Shadows Beneath the Moon

    The tension in Silvercrest was no longer silent.It pulsed—through the hallways, across training grounds, even in the eyes of the youngest wolves. There were whispers, strange scents on the wind, unexplained absences from patrols. And now, Evelyn had seen the truth—Selena wasn’t just a rival. She was a threat to the entire pack.Evelyn stood at the edge of the sparring field just before dawn. The ground was slick with dew, and the sky bled orange and pink as morning approached.Opposite her stood Damien, shirtless and already stretching.“Last time we did this, I won,” he said with a smirk.Evelyn rolled her eyes, cracking her knuckles. “Last time, I let you win.”He raised a brow. “I highly doubt that.”They launched into training without another word—hands, feet, momentum and restraint. Their bodies knew the rhythm, even if their hearts hadn’t caught up. For Evelyn, it was more than a workout—it was clarity. A way to shake loose the confusion of Ronan’s warnings, her father’s journa

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER TWENTY THREE – The Return of the Rogue

    The forest around Silvercrest was unnaturally quiet.Evelyn moved with calculated steps, her senses sharpened to every sound. A week had passed since the confrontation at the gathering hall—since Damien had stood before her and confessed, not just regret, but vulnerability. Yet, she hadn’t been able to respond the way she wanted. Too many things still hung in the air like smoke refusing to clear.And now, someone was watching her.She could feel it—not in a way she could explain, but in the way her wolf, Aria, tensed just beneath her skin. They weren’t alone."Who's there?" she called out, voice firm.A shadow shifted in the trees ahead.A familiar scent hit her nose—earth, iron, and something wilder.Evelyn's eyes narrowed. "Ronan."He stepped forward, emerging from the cover of the woods like a ghost. He was broader than she remembered, his silver-streaked black hair longer, tied back messily. A fresh scar sliced across his left eyebrow, and his dark eyes held a glint of war.“I see

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER TWENTY TWO – The Trial of Flame and Blood

    The days following the council’s visit moved slowly, like the calm after a storm—or the deep breath before another. But peace, Evelyn knew, was never meant to last in their world.By the third morning, the skies darkened. Not with rain, but with something more ancient. A scent clung to the wind—burnt ash and old blood. Even Aria paced restlessly within her, fur bristling at a warning only wolves of ancient lineage could feel.“Do you feel that?” Evelyn asked Kendall as they met near the training ring.Kendall narrowed his eyes toward the east. “Yeah. It’s coming from the border hills. Smells... wrong. Like dark magic.”Before Evelyn could speak, a young scout burst into the clearing, panting. “Alpha Evelyn! Alpha Damien—there’s a disturbance at the boundary rune stones! It’s... you need to come now!”Evelyn’s heart dropped into her stomach. She and Kendall exchanged a glance before racing toward the command tent, Damien already on his way there.By the time they arrived, the rune ston

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER TWENTY ONE – The Alpha’s Gamble

    The rising sun filtered through the forest canopy in golden shafts, dancing on the dew-covered leaves. It was a new day, but the tension that lingered in the camp made it feel like the calm before a storm. Everyone could feel it—change was coming. And it was coming fast.Evelyn stood on the ridge overlooking the valley, arms folded as her sharp eyes scanned the horizon. Since reuniting with her mother and receiving the reinforcement troops from Silvercrest, the camp had been busier, the lines tighter, the energy taut with purpose. Yet her thoughts were scattered.Damien approached from behind, his steps quiet, but she sensed him anyway. Her wolf, Aria, stirred in recognition—not with the burning bond that once overwhelmed her, but with something steadier now. Warmer.“You’re up early,” he said.“I couldn’t sleep,” she replied without turning. “There’s a lot on my mind.”“Same,” he said, standing beside her. “The elders are arriving today. Along with the High Council representative.”S

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER EIGHT - The Weight Of The Past

    Evelyn woke to the sound of rustling outside the cabin.For a moment, disoriented by sleep, she forgot where she was. Her hands reached instinctively for the familiar furs of her bed back in Silvercrest, for the steady warmth of home. But the scent of pine, damp earth, and faint smoke filled her lu

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER SEVEN - Blood and Oaths

    Evelyn drifted in and out of consciousness, her body aching from the fight. The warmth surrounding her was unfamiliar—solid, strong. She realized she was being carried.Ronan.His scent, a mix of pine and something darker, filled her senses. She forced her heavy eyelids open and found herself looki

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER SIX - Hunted

    A cold wave of dread washed over Evelyn as the scent of Silvercrest wolves grew stronger. Her muscles tensed, instincts screaming at her to run. But she didn’t.Not this time.Ronan was already moving, his body taut with readiness as he positioned himself in front of her. His sharp amber eyes scann

  • His Rejected Luna   CHAPTER FIVE - Secrets and Scars

    Evelyn ate in silence, the warmth of the tea spreading through her, soothing her aching body. She was too hungry to care that Ronan was watching her with those unreadable amber eyes.The food—fresh bread, dried meat, and roasted potatoes—was simple but filling. It was a stark contrast to the lavish
