"What do you think?" I asked Tina, holding up two necklaces between my neck while she fussed with my hair applying oil to it. "This one... or the other with the diamonds?" I held them together on my neck staring at them through the mirror.

Tina bowed her head nervously. "Anyone you pick will fit you, My Lady."

My smile widened, but then it faltered. My gaze sharpened on her reflection in the mirror, and I lowered the necklace slowly. "Not 'My Lady,'" I corrected. "From now on, you will address me properly Luna Kayla. Because soon, I'll be queen of this pack."

Her eyes widened, panic flickering in them. "My apologies, my la— I mean... Luna."

"Good." I smirked, watching the way the title rolled so naturally off her tongue. It already belonged to me. "Now finish up and leave. I want to get changed and go meet my beloved."

Soon, everyone would see it the power, the respect, the crown of Luna resting on my head.

I dismissed the maid with a flick of my hand, the door clicking shut b

    Kayla"What did you do to Tristan?"I tilted my head, arms folding across my chest as I let out a low chuckle. Poor girl, she really thought she had a chance. "Why?" I asked smoothly, feigning innocence. "What exactly did you see?""You just told Tristan to go to his room and he did without arguing. You did something to him, Kayla."I smirked, savoring the edge in her tone, the way suspicion laced her every word. "Oh, I did nothing, Selene. Tristan has simply come back to his senses, that's all."Inside, though, my thoughts drummed with satisfaction. The peace I felt when he obeyed without resistance... it was intoxicating. Finally, no arguments. Just silence and obedience. But I'd need more I could already feel the edges of his will trying to fight back, even if he didn't show it. I would have to speak with Mother soon, so we could go meet the man again and collect more potion. That was the only way to keep him mine, completely.Selene's eyes narrowed, anger clouding her face. "I don

    SeleneThe drive here had been silent, each of us wrapped in our own thoughts. And now, standing at the gates of the pack, I felt that silence stretch inside me like a taut string.Everywhere was decorated in gold and white, ribbons wrapped around pillars, flowers trailing along the entrance, and lanterns hanging overhead. Today was Tristan and Kayla's wedding the day that sealed everything. I didn't know exactly what I felt, but I knew one thing I wasn't going to walk in here looking broken. So I kept my head high, Liora dressed sweetly in her little gown in Ama's arms, while I smoothed down my own simple outfit. Zayn walked on the other side of me, his usual protective presence steadying me.Inside the pack hall, the crowd was buzzing with chatter, laughter, and the sound of instruments warming up. My eyes trailed instinctively to the front, where Kayla stood, draped in a gown that shimmered beneath the lights. I can't lie she was beautiful, radiant even, her hair pinned with tiny p

    SeleneThe lecture finally wrapped up, and I let out a quiet sigh as I closed my notebook. My first day of college—well, part-time college was officially over. I'd taken plenty of notes, and realized I hadn't exchanged a single word with anyone in the room. Not that they seemed interested either. Everyone had their little cliques already, walking out in pairs or groups, chatting about assignments or grabbing coffee together.I didn't feel out of place, exactly. Just... separate. And maybe that was fine. By the time I got home, Ama was seated at the sitting room like she'd been counting the seconds."There you are!" she beamed, practically bouncing. "So? How was it? Tell me everything. Were the lecturers nice? Did you make friends? Did anyone talk to you? Come on, don't leave me hanging!"I chuckled, shaking my head as I slipped past her. "I missed my baby. Where is she?"Ama groaned, stomping her foot. "Selene! That's not fair—you can't just dodge all my questions like that!"But I w

    SeleneA few days later...Everything felt different. Zayn had handled all the preparations for me tuition, supplies, even the little things I didn't think of. For the first time in a long while, I felt a spark of excitement. I was really about to begin something new. Something that was mine.I sat on the stool in the kitchen, idly crunching on a slice of apple while Ama stood by the stove, flipping the last pancake onto the pan with a little too much flair, like she was competing in some pancake contest."So," she said, sliding the golden-brown pancake onto a plate, "you're officially starting college."I rolled my eyes, popping the apple into my mouth. "Come on, I wouldn't call it college. It's just part-time."Ama turned off the stove, grabbed the plate, and carried it over to the table. She set it down with a little dramatic thud, then spun around to face me. "It doesn't matter. School is school. You are finally going to live the dream you've always wanted." She pulled out the cha

    SeleneI pushed the door open, my head heavy, my thoughts spinning in a mess I couldn't untangle. Tristan's words still echoed, even though I knew he hadn't said them to hurt me. I hadn't said a word back. I couldn't. The moment those words left his mouth, I felt like the air had been ripped out of me. He explained but nothing stuck. My mind couldn't process it. My heart wouldn't let me. So, I walked away."Thank God you're back on time," Ama's voice cut through the fog as she appeared from the kitchen, relief etched on her face. "Liora had been crying nonstop. I literally went crazy before she finally managed to sleep." She gave me a once-over and her tone shifted instantly. "Wait... what's wrong?"My vision blurry from the tears I'd been holding back. My lips trembled before the words slipped out, "He's getting married to Kayla."Ama froze, her eyes widening as if she hadn't heard me right. "What?" she whispered, her hand flying to her chest.I let out a shaky breath, dropping ont
