Becky’s POV

The morning of my bonding ceremony was quiet.

I stared at my reflection in the mirror as the maids finished fixing my simple white dress.

It was nothing extravagant, just a plain but elegant dress fitting for a Beta’s ceremonial mating to a high-ranking wolf.

My makeup was light, and my hair was pinned back neatly.

“Are you ready, dear?” Grandmother’s voice came from the doorway, her wolf aura calm but ever-watchful.

I took a deep breath and nodded. “Yes.”

Grandfather stepped forward, his silver eyes sharp, the power of an elder wolf radiating from him.

“After today, you are Becky Blackridge Greenbrook. Bonded to Alpha Michael, heir of the Greenbrook line. No turning back.”

I swallowed the lump in my throat. “I know.”

With that, we headed to Alpha Michael’s family estate deep within the pack’s inner territory, where everything was already set up.

A pack elder was waiting in the living room when we arrived, his robes marked with the crescent sigil of our pack.

  • I Raised His Heir, But I Was Never His Luna   Chapter 30

    Becky’s POVA cold gasp escaped my lips.“You can’t do this! This is sacred pack land!”A tall enforcer stepped forward, his amber irises glimmering like ember-lit coals beneath a shadowed brow.“By order of the Alpha Council, Becky Blackridge, you stand accused of attacking Luna Kiera Grimsbane and causing the death of her unborn heir. You are hereby taken into custody.”The silver-infused cuffs clicked into place with a cruel finality, the burn of wolfsbane searing my skin like fire under frost.Tears welled up and fell as I twisted toward Alpha Michael.“Please... don’t let them take me.”His jaw was set in stone, his body trembling from the effort of suppressing the wolf clawing at his skin.“This is a farce,” he snarled, voice low and lethal. “I won’t allow this to stand.”An enforcer recited my rights, voice as flat as stone, while another dragged me toward the exit. Behind them, Alpha David leaned against the wall, his smirk curved like a sickle, feeding on my pain with quiet sa

  • I Raised His Heir, But I Was Never His Luna   Chapter 29

    Becky’s POVA blood-curdling shriek ripped through the night, snapping me out of unconsciousness like a slap across the face.My limbs felt like they were made of stone, heavy and unresponsive. A fog clouded my mind, and a dull pounding echoed in my skull as if I’d been dosed with wolfsbane.I blinked rapidly, trying to clear my vision—and then my heart seized in my chest.Kiera was sprawled on the dewy forest grass beside me, her body convulsing in agony. Her hands clutched her stomach as crimson seeped between her fingers, the scent of fresh blood slicing through the air like a dagger.Her face was pale, twisted with pain, and her mouth gaped open in a silent scream.Then my gaze dropped—and I froze.A dagger—silver-tipped and slick with blood—was clutched in my hand.I choked on my breath and let the weapon clatter to the ground, the metallic scent of blood clinging to my skin."What... what is this?" I whispered, my voice barely audible over the roaring in my ears.Kiera whimpered,

  • I Raised His Heir, But I Was Never His Luna   Chapter 28

    Becky’s POVThe SUV’s engine quieted as we pulled up before the stone-forged gates of the Grimsbane Pack estate, nestled deep in the forested hills. I felt Alpha Michael’s hand wrap around mine—warm, steady, grounding.“You ready for this?” he asked, voice low like a growl barely held back.I nodded, slipping the sealed black envelope into my clutch. “Let’s stir the wolves’ den.”The air changed the moment our boots hit the gravel. There was no mistaking the tension—the kind that prickled across your skin like static, heavy with dominance and threat. We hadn’t even crossed the threshold before Asher came charging out like an enraged Alpha, jaw clenched and nostrils flared.“What the hell are you doing here?” he barked, fury barely reined in. “You’ve dragged my name through the mud, and now you show your face?”Alpha Michael, unfazed, tucked his hands into his coat pockets, his aura calm but sharp.“If you had nothing to do with my mother’s death, then you shouldn’t fear what the Enforc

  • I Raised His Heir, But I Was Never His Luna   Chapter 27

    Becky’s PovI awoke to the tempting scent of fresh coffee and warm pastries, the smell filling the room like a comforting embrace.As my eyes fluttered open, the sight before me made my heart skip a beat. Alpha Michael stood at the edge of the bed, a tray of food in his hands. His eyes, dark and intense, reflected a mix of love and something deeper—something wild.“Good morning, my luna,” he murmured, setting the tray gently beside me.I slowly sat up, rubbing my tired eyes, still adjusting to the warmth of his gaze. “What’s all this?” I asked, taking in the spread before me.“Breakfast, just for you,” he replied, a playful glint in his eyes. “I could sense you had a rough night after that call. You deserve to be pampered.”I swallowed hard, the memory of the menacing words from the phone call still lingering in my mind. A chill ran down my spine, but it quickly faded when Alpha Michael pressed a soft, heated kiss to my forehead.“Eat, my love,” he whispered. “Then we’ll have something

  • I Raised His Heir, But I Was Never His Luna   Chapter 26

    Kiera’s POVI exhaled a long, controlled breath, my finger pressing down on the red button to end the call.A sly smirk tugged at the corner of my lips as I placed the voice manipulator back into its plush velvet box.Becky should have gotten the message by now. If she knows what's best for her, she’ll steer clear of my pack’s matters.Just as I was about to tuck the box away, a loud, forceful knock rattled the door.“Kiera, open up!” Alpha David’s voice sliced through the air, sharp and commanding, carrying the unmistakable edge of a wolf's wrath.My pulse quickened, and I quickly shoved the box deep into the drawer, straightening my dress in one swift motion.I darted to the door, unlocking it just as Alpha David stormed inside. His face was set in a rigid scowl, his blue eyes flickering with barely contained rage, like smoldering embers threatening to ignite.“Why was the door locked?” he demanded, his voice low and dangerous, the air thick with the scent of his fury.I forced out a

  • I Raised His Heir, But I Was Never His Luna   Chapter 25

    Becky's PovMy heart hammered in my chest, each beat like a war drum as I raced down the hospital corridor. The news I had overheard was a slap in the face.Kiera wasn’t pregnant.The lie had been a carefully crafted web, and now, the truth was crawling free, unraveling faster than I could catch it. Why had she deceived everyone? What game was she playing?I had to warn Alpha Michael.I dodged through the maze of hallways, a cold sweat trickling down my spine. My senses were on edge; the wolf inside me stirred restlessly, as if it too could smell danger in the air.Finally, I found Alpha Michael with my grandparents in the waiting area. Without a second thought, I gripped his arm, pulling him closer, urgency flooding my veins."We need to go. Now." I hissed under my breath.Alpha Michael’s brow furrowed. "Becky, what's going on?"I shook my head, not trusting my voice to explain here. "Not here. Just trust me."He didn’t question me further. His strong arm wrapped around my waist, pull
