Moon Reaper’s Substitute Bride Chapter 94
~AURORA~I had a decision to make, and time was running out.Either I stayed with the man I was desperately in love with and watched him bind himself to the woman who had spent years humiliating and abusing me—or I left with Vincent and lived in his family's palace until I could stand on my own and protect the life growing inside me. Both paths felt like different kinds of death. Staying meant watching Cassian belong to someone else while the Varkas waited to drag me back into their cruelty. Leaving meant walking away from the only person who had ever made me feel wanted, even if that feeling had been temporary.I wiped at the tears gathering in my eyes as the soft swell of music signaled that the bride was about to appear. I hadn't wanted to attend the ceremony at all. Seeing Cassian standing at the front of the hall in formal black, looking so devastatingly handsome it hurt to breathe, was already more than I could bear. It had been so long since we'd had any real time alone to
Moon Reaper’s Substitute Bride Chapter 93
~CASSIAN~It was the day of the wedding, and I was having a fucking miserable one.I had done everything in my power to make this day as unpleasant as possible for the Varkas. I had deliberately changed seating arrangements at the last minute, ordered the floral displays rearranged into something far less grand than Seraphina wanted, delayed the musicians, and overruled nearly every request her mother had made. If I was going to be forced into this sham of a ceremony, I refused to make it easy for them. Every small act of sabotage was a quiet rebellion against the cage the council had locked me in.Still, none of it was enough. It would never be enough to erase the look of betrayal and hurt on Aurora’s face every time she saw me with Seraphina. I paced in front of my bed, power crackling restlessly beneath my skin. Outside, my home buzzed with preparations for a wedding that meant nothing. The divorce papers Aurora had signed were forgeries. She was still my wife. The bond between us

~AURORA~Vincent paced back and forth in front of the bed like a caged animal. He was the last person I wanted to share this news with. The last person I wanted standing beside me while the weight of the doctor's words still crushed my chest. But he was the one who had brought the doctor. He was the one who had stayed when I fainted. And now he was the only one here while my entire world felt like it was spinning out of control.I wished it was Cassian.I wished it with every broken piece of my heart. I wished this was a different world—one where he sat beside me with a smile at this news. A world where we could celebrate the life we had created together. A baby that was half him and half me. A living piece of the only man who had ever made me feel truly wanted, even if only for a few stolen nights.Instead, I had Vincent."I knew that bastard would knock you up and then forget all about you," he growled, stopping mid-pace to glare at the wall as if Cassian's face was painted there."

~AURORA~"What are you talking about?" I asked the doctor, my voice soft and confused. "What test did you do already?"He glanced at Vincent, as though seeking silent permission. When Vincent gave a short, tense nod, the doctor stepped closer to the bed. His expression was carefully neutral, but something in his eyes made my stomach twist."A pregnancy test," he said quietly. "I think you might be pregnant, but I can't say for sure until the results are back."My heart felt like it stopped beating for several long, terrifying seconds. The room suddenly felt too small, the air too thin. I stared at him, certain I had misheard.No.I couldn't be pregnant. The thought alone made my chest tighten with panic. Yes, I had been ill earlier, but I had convinced myself it was only stress—the crushing weight of the divorce, the public humiliation, watching Cassian prepare to marry Seraphina. My body had simply given out under the pressure. That was all it could be. It had to be."I think you a

~AURORA~The nausea hit me without warning.One moment I was staring down at my untouched plate, trying to block out Vincent's low voice and the sight of Cassian across the hall with Seraphina. The next, a violent wave of sickness rolled through my stomach, so sudden and intense that I swayed in my seat. My skin went cold. A sharp, acidic burn rose in my throat. I clamped a hand over my mouth, eyes wide with panic as the room shook slightly.What was happening? Something was terribly wrong. I shouldn't be feeling like this. Vincent noticed immediately. He leaned in, brow furrowed with concern. "Aurora? Are you okay?"I nodded quickly, not trusting myself to speak. I didn't want his help. Not now. Not when my body was betraying me so completely. "I am fine." I lie. "Please just leave me alone. I need to use the bathroom."Without another word, I pushed back from the table and stood on unsteady legs. A few heads turned, but I ignored them. I needed to get out. Fast.I hoped Cassia
Moon Reaper’s Substitute Bride Chapter 89
~CASSIAN~I was losing my fucking mind.Across the banquet table, Vincent leaned in far too close to Aurora, his shoulder nearly brushing hers as he spoke in low, urgent tones. I watched every little movement with predatory focus as he angled his body toward her like he had every right to her attention.Aurora's face was pale, and still that bastard kept pushing. Kept talking. Kept trying to crawl back into the space that belonged to me.The cup in my hand cracked under the pressure of my grip. I couldn't look away. Every second Vincent spent that close to her felt like a wound on my heart. She was still mine. She was still my wife. She did not belong to him. I did not care that they were still mates. And yet she sat there believing I had discarded her, while that wolf tried to pick up the pieces.Seraphina's voice drifted toward me. "Cassian, darling, mother was just saying how beautiful the floral arrangements will look tomorrow. Don't you think the red roses will make a stunnin

~CASSIAN~Marry a bloody she-wolf. Curse the grand council and their rules.How the hell was I supposed to bind myself to a woman from the family my people despised more than death itself? How could she even survive here, in the heart of our territory, when every soul would sooner tear out her thr
Moon Reaper’s Substitute Bride Chapter 2
~AURORA~The hall seemed to spin. Whispers all around us, but they faded into a distant sound. Seraphina and Vincent. . .betrothed? How had I never known? All those years pining, suffering in silence, and they'd been promised to each other? I felt like a fool. He wasn't just someone I'd develope
Moon Reaper’s Substitute Bride Chapter 1
~Aurora~The cellar smelled of damp stone and fresh blood.I knelt on the cold floor, arms raw from the earlier whippings, tasting iron where my lip had split."The prophecy demands a Varkas daughter," Lady Elowen, my stepmother had hissed earlier this evening, shoving me forward in the great hall
Moon Reaper’s Substitute Bride Chapter 5
~CASSIAN~I couldn't believe my eyes.It was her, the girl I had glimpsed earlier while entering the Kingdom. I couldn't get her out of my head. And now she stood before me as my bride?A dark amusement formed in my chest. Had she truly tried to run away to escape marrying me? This was the Varka
