Aria's POV

Five minutes to convince him I wasn't insane.

I stood before Kael Nightfang in the hotel corridor, my heart hammering against my chest. His amber eyes burned with fury and pain and the mate bond between us hummed beneath my skin, alive and begging, yearning to be sealed.

"Start talking," he growled. "You have five minutes."

My throat tightened. How can I make him believe in something I could barely comprehend myself? I could lie, come up with something more reasonable. But if I couldn't be honest with my own partner, what hope did we have?

So, I chose the truth.

"Four years from now, you and I have twin babies named Mira and Kai." The words came out faster than I intended. "The evening of their third day, my husband murdered me in a dungeon while trying to sacrifice our babies for a dark ritual."

Kael's face twisted in revulsion. "Are you making fun of me? Is this some kind of sick—"

"I'm not!" Tears streamed down my face. "I know it's insane, but just listen. In my own tim

  • REBIRTH OF THE BETRAYED LUNA    The Alpha's Gamble

    Kael's POVI've lost my goddamn mind.That was the only explanation as to why I'm pressed against a woman I'd only just met ten minutes ago, shielding her as her so-called best friend searched for her. My body screamed at me to be rational, yet Storm was going totally feral in my head.*Mate. Protect mate. KILL anyone who threatens mate.*"Shut up," I growled under my breath. "Let me think."But thinking was impossible with Aria's body trembling against mine, her jasmine scent filling my lungs. Those visions I saw earlier burned into my mind—her pain, her terror, her grief for those children.The Children she claimed were mine.Elena's footsteps clicked closer. I stood frozen as her shadow passed our hiding spot.Then the magical scent hit me.It slammed into my senses like a fist to the gut. Wrong on so many levels that my wolf growled in disgust. The power swept through the air, leaving with it a residue that felt like rot and ancient darkness.Dark magic. Actual, unmistakable dark

  • REBIRTH OF THE BETRAYED LUNA    The Unity Ball

    The Grand Ballroom at the Continental Hotel glimmered like a fairytale with crystal chandeliers and marble columns draped in midnight blue silk. Two hundred of North America's most powerful supernatural creatures stood under the vaulted ceiling, their conversation a mix of politics and pack dynamics.I stood in the doorway in a silver dress that hugged every curve of my body. My hair had been brushed back perfectly so my grandmother's diamond necklace could be seen. To anyone who looked at me, I was the ideal Luna princess, innocent, spoilt and just waiting for Mr perfect.Inside, I'm a predator stalking my prey."Look there," Elena sighed, her perfectly manicured nails digging into my arm with barely contained excitement. "Darius Blackthorne. Isn't he handsome?"I allowed my gaze to wander after her's across the sea of dancing figures to where he stood with a group of pale blonde admirers. Tall, broad-shouldered with immaculately styled blonde hair, he was the very epitome of a stron

  • REBIRTH OF THE BETRAYED LUNA    Second Chances

    I woke up struggling to breathe.My fingers darted up my throat, looking for silver sores but found none. Gentle cotton bandages wrapped around my legs was all that greeted me. Moonlight illuminated windows I was familiar with, shining through them into the bedroom I used to live as a teenager dreaming about finding my mate.The irony was bitter on my lips.My phone beeped on the nightstand, lighting up with a date that brought my heart to a standstill. Four years ago. The night before I was going to meet Darius Blackthorne for the first time at the Unity Ball."Holy shit," I whispered into the empty room, my voice rough like I've been screaming for hours. "She really did it. The moon goddess really brought me back."I sat up gradually, every muscle in my body trembling with leftover adrenaline. The burns from the silver chains still lingered on my wrists, yet when I looked down, my skin was unblemished. Whole and clean as if nothing happened.But it had happened. The lies, the betray

  • REBIRTH OF THE BETRAYED LUNA    The Last Betrayal

    The silver chains had burned through my skin and muscle, but the worst pain was watching my husband cradle our three day-old twins like a butcher choosing cuts of meat. "Perfect Luna bloodline," Darius murmured, his ice-blue eyes that I'd once thought were beautiful were now examining baby Kai with clinical interest. "Twin sacrifices. The ritual will be twice as powerful with fresh blood."I tried to speak, but the silver poisoning had claimed my voice hours earlier. All I could manage were ragged gasps as I watched him study our babies tiny faces. Kai squirmed in those powerful hands that used to stroke my hair, while his sister Mira slept peacefully in the bassinet nearby, and every maternal instinct I had screamed at me to protect them."Stop looking at her like that." Elena stepped forward from the shadows, and the smile on my best friend's face fired ice straight through my chest. She was smiling. Smiling actually as I bled to death in chains. "She still thinks this was about lo

  • REBIRTH OF THE BETRAYED LUNA    PROLOGUE

    The abandoned warehouse loomed over the edge of the industrial zone, its broken windows staring blankly into darkness. It seemed, from the outside, like all the other abandoned buildings in this part of the city. But far below its concrete pillars, in the rooms that existed inside the warehouse, something ancient stirred.Thirteen figures knelt in a perfect circle on the cold stone floor. Their black robes rustled silently in the night air as they stood with heads bowed in reverence. The candles cast pools of flickering light around the room, the flame dancing even in the absence of wind. The light which they gave seemed unnatural somehow, casting shadows which moved on their own with no care for their source.In the center of the circle stood a fourteen figure dressed also clothed in black. She, unlike the others, emanate a sense of superiority that spread to all corners of the room. Her voice, whenever she did speak to them, was heavy as centuries."My faithful servants," she starte
