CARA'S POV

I'm still shocked at everything the man beside me was saying. His voice was firm, deep, and commanding yet oddly gentle when he said the words:

"You are Maya... my mate and the queen of the Moonshine kingdom."

Queen? Me? I stared at him, unsure whether to laugh, scream, or run.

My name is Cara; at least, that's what I've always known before the horrible fall. The only daughter of Alpha Max of the Wolfsburg pack. I grew up pampered, trained, and adored, but never once treated like royalty. So how was I now in the body of a queen? The first time a prince came to visit my father in Wolfsburg, I couldn't even see his face, only his backside.

Above all, my sudden transformation. "My heart burns, my eyes are stronger than usual, and my veins are now thick and showy!" I whispered inwardly to myself as I walked side by side with Alpha Dane. "What's happening to me? Could this be my wolf!"

He gently tapped my back as we reached the cub's door. "Are you ready?" He asked, his voice soft but laced with tension.

I gave a stiff nod, masking the swirl of confusion inside me. He pushed open the door sideways. Immediately, the two cubs, Loki and Aria, set their eyes on us; they raced towards me with squeals of joy.

"Mom!" They crashed into me with tiny arms and innocent eyes.

I froze. My body, this body, reacted, arms wrapping around them automatically, heart skipping a beat. But my mind was paralyzed. I had never held a child of my own; I couldn't.

My baby died the night I fell... The night my world shattered, so how could these two precious souls call me Mama?

Loki tilted his head. "Why didn't you come last night to tuck us in?" Aria tugged my sleeve. "You always kiss our forehead and tell us about Silver Lake. You promised."

I opened my mouth, but nothing came out; their faces began to shift. Concern flickered across their features, and they looked towards Dane.

"Dad... What's wrong with Mama?" Aria asked in a small, cracking voice.

Alpha Dane stepped forward quickly, kneeling beside them. "She's just tired, little wolves," he said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "She's not feeling fine. Give her some time, okay?"

The cubs nodded hesitantly and retreated to their beds, sneaking glances at me over their shoulders.

I stood rooted by the door, arms limp, heart breaking. Was I supposed to feel something for them? Was Maya truly their mother? And if she was, why did I feel like an impostor in her skin?

As we stepped out of the cub's room, the air between us grew heavy. The joyful echo of the cub's laughter behind the door faded into silence, and my steps slowed. Dane walked ahead of me, his posture stiff, unreadable.

He stopped in front of the next door, opened it, and motioned for me to enter.

"This is your room," he said quietly. "Right beside theirs... where it's always been." I walked in slowly.

It was spacious, elegant, and intimate; silver silk draws framed the windows, and a carved moonstone mirror stood against the far wall. Everything smelled like lavender and something nostalgic and familiar.

He didn't follow me in but stood in the doorway, watching. Then with a voice laced with both warning and weariness, he said. "I've helped you for 6 years, protected you, and stood by you through everything."

I turned around, sensing a shift in his tone.

"But let's be clear, Maya." His eyes narrowing slightly, he continued. "There has never been anything mutual between us. I never loved you."

The words hit like a slap across the face, yet I didn't feel it. After all,I never loved him; I'm not the one who has loved him.

"I'll play along," he added. "Help you navigate this memory loss. For the sake of the cubs and my reputation in the kingdom. But don't mistake that for affection."

He stepped closer, gaze intense. "You're the queen. If they smell weakness, any hint that something is off, it won't be just like the crown that is at risk. So your memory loss between us."

I tried to respond, but my throat was dry. He has just admitted something that shattered the fragile illusion I hadn't even begun to accept.

Now I get it: no love, no bond, just obligations. "But you are my mate for now!" I whispered silently.

He looked away, jaw clenched. "The moon goddess makes mistakes too, and that's you."

And with that, he turned and walked away, the door clicking softly behind him.

I stood frozen in the center of the room, heart pounding. A queen in name. A stranger in body. A mate unloved.

Then I noticed something. On the dresser, half covered by a velvet scarf, sat a dusty silver locket. I picked it up, trembling fingers brushing it clean. Inside were two pictures, Loki and Aria on one side. On the other is Dane and a lady; I guess it's Maya.

The moment I heard footsteps fade down the corridor, a quick knock came at my door—soft, rapid, and almost desperate.

I opened it, and there stood Amelia, my personal maid, as said by Alpha Dane when she came to his room. But this time, her usual warmth was shadowed by urgency.

Without a word, she slipped into the room, glancing around awkwardly to be sure we were alone. From the folds of her apron, she pulled a sealed, aged envelope stamped with the blood-red crest of Stormhowl.

"This looks familiar!" I thought to myself, but I don't know where I've seen it before.

"My lady, it's from your father." She said in a whisper, placing it gently in my hands. "He said no one must see it. Not even the Alpha."

Before I could speak, she slipped out just as swiftly as she entered.

My fingers trembled as I broke the wax seal. It wasn't Maya's father's crest. "Cara is dead!" That's the first thing I glanced at in the note.

I'm dead, and someone is announcing that! But why? My questions hung up in the air.

"Cara, Lord Max's daughter. The one they whispered about was Dane's favorite and loving mate. The one everyone believed he'd mark is dead. He's left with no choice but to mark you as his own and make your son his rightful heir. It was made to be believed to be an accident." My eyes widened in shock at the note before me.

Then I continued. "It wasn't an accident; it's all part of the plans."

"Alpha Thane is my father—no, Maya's father!" My voice trembled at the revelation; I have no one to console my heart in the dimly lit room.

"Alpha Thane is Maya's father, then Kyle's and related to Maya," her face laced with confusion. "I am inside Kyle's sister's body." I staggered backward, the letter slipping from my fingers and landing on the floor like a fallen truth.

  • Mated By Kyle, Reborn To Alpha Dane   HOWLING IN PAIN

    DANE'S POV We arrived at the Nightclaw pack earlier than expected, the moonlight cutting sharp lines across the cliffs and casting shadows that danced like predators in the wind. Caleb and I stepped cautiously into the compound, every muscle tense, every sense alert. The weight of the mission pressed down on me, heavy and inescapable.I took a deep breath, my hands tightening at my sides. “Lord Max,” I began, my voice calm but carrying the weight of urgency, “if there’s any information I have regarding who killed Cara—your daughter—I need to tell you now.”Max’s gaze sharpened instantly, the weight of his grief and authority filling the room. “Speak, Maya,” he said, his tone steady but deadly serious. “Every detail could matter.”I met his eyes without hesitation. “Lord Thane, Lady Aurora, and I were all at the Delux Hotel the night Cara died,” I said deliberately, making sure to stress the truth. “I know that places us at the scene, but it doesn’t mean we had anything to do with her

  • Mated By Kyle, Reborn To Alpha Dane   TAKING OVER MY WOLF

    LUCIAN'S POV “We are going to do the needful this month,” I declared as our horses trudged along the twisting path to Moonshine Castle. The moon hung high and pale in the sky, its light casting long, eerie shadows across the jagged stone walls. “We are ending all of this, once and for all.”Maya’s thought locked onto mine, her eyes ablaze with fury. I had seen anger before, yes—but never the kind that could cut through stone, never the kind that seemed to make the air itself shiver. Her hands clenched into fists, knuckles white, and every muscle in her body screamed tension.“You… you are evil!” she hissed, stepping back as if I were a predator ready to strike. “Stay away from me!”I forced a steady breath, trying to control the rush of heat rising in my chest. “Maya… listen,” I said, my voice low, urgent. “Everything I’ve done, everything I’ve risked… it’s for this moment. For us.”“Us?” Her voice cracked, trembling with anger and disbelief. “You call this—this manipulation, this ch

  • Mated By Kyle, Reborn To Alpha Dane   Boiling Jealousy

    RYKER'S POV “How did you get out without being followed?” I asked, my voice firm as Cara stepped fully into my house, her movements calm yet alert, like a predator walking into its territory.“I know my way around every one of them,” she replied, her tone steady but carrying a hint of pride. “I’ve learned a lot through Maya’s memories—the patrols, the blind spots, even their little habits. I guess she must be furious by now.”I raised an eyebrow. “Furious? You really think she’s noticed?”Cara’s smirk was subtle but confident. “Maybe she has, maybe she hasn’t. Doesn’t matter. I can handle them. I’ve stayed invisible for 150 days. I can stay invisible longer if I have to.”I took a deep breath, running a hand through my hair. “And the music… it’s working?” I asked, my curiosity rising.“Yes,” she said, her eyes gleaming. “It’s more effective than I imagined. I’ve scared them off for now. They’re asking too many questions about Reborn. That’s exactly the kind of distraction I want. Con

  • Mated By Kyle, Reborn To Alpha Dane   Death Toll

    DANE'S POV “You left the hospital without informing anyone,” I said, my voice trembling between anger and worry. “I went there only to be told you’d checked out. Do you have any idea what that did to me? I thought something happened, Caleb. I thought you were—" I broke off, my throat tight. “What happened?”Caleb sat on the edge of the couch, staring at the floor. His jaw kept clenching and unclenching, the muscle twitching as though the words were fighting him.“Caleb,” I called again, softer this time, stepping closer. “Don’t shut me out. Not now. Just tell me what’s going on.”His eyes flicked up at me, then away again. He dragged a hand across his face, sighing heavily. “You wouldn’t understand.”“Try me,” I snapped, more harshly than I intended. “I’ve been with you through worse, haven’t I? Stop treating me like I’m some outsider.”That finally broke him. He looked up, his eyes darker than I’d ever seen them. “Delilah’s real father…” He hesitated, like even speaking the words mi

  • Mated By Kyle, Reborn To Alpha Dane   Fearful wolf

    LAYLA'S POV The door slammed behind Kyle so hard the hinges rattled, and he spun on me with fire in his eyes.“Are you shameless enough to sleep with your best friend’s man, Tyler?” His voice was sharp, each word laced with venom.My heart dropped into my stomach. My lips trembled. “How… how did you know about that?”His bitter laugh was so harsh it made my skin crawl. “How did I know? Mira told me. She looked me in the eye and called me a fool, saying I was in a stupor for not seeing the truth sooner. Do you know what that felt like? To hear it from her before I heard it from you?”“Kyle, please—”“No, don’t you dare say my name like you care.” He jabbed his finger at me, his chest rising and falling rapidly. “You don’t get to play innocent. You don’t get to stand there acting fragile, pretending you were caught in some accident. You chose him.”Tears blurred my vision. “It wasn’t like that. I didn’t mean for it to happen—”“You neglected me!” he roared, cutting through my words lik

    LORD KANE'S POV Lord Thane’s voice hit me like a storm, each word vibrating with anger. “Do you have any idea what Rafael has done?!” His roar made my hands tighten around the phone.“I… I know, Lord Thane. It wasn’t supposed to happen like this,” I said, my voice trembling, though I tried to mask it.“Not supposed to happen like this?” His incredulity was sharp, a knife cutting through the air. “Rafael was supposed to eliminate Caleb, not injure his mother! Do you understand what this means?”“I do,” I whispered, swallowing hard. “I gave Rafael the orders. He acted on them—but… something went wrong.”“Something went wrong?” Thane’s voice was now low, almost dangerous. “Do you understand the chaos this will bring? Caleb will be on high alert. Every move we make, he will watch. Rafael’s mistake has put everything at risk!”“I… I’ll fix it,” I said quickly, my mind spinning. “We can contain this. I’ll speak with Rafael and make sure it doesn’t happen again.”There was a long pause on t
