REJECTED BY THE MOON WHAT THE HALL DECIDED
The doors closed behind Shane, and for a long moment nobody in the hall moved, as if the whole room had been holding its breath through the entire confrontation and only now remembered how to let it out.The presiding elder cleared his throat, and the sound seemed to break whatever spell had settled over the benches."With Alpha Gledova's claim dismissed," he said, "this council returns to the original matter of tonight's hearing. The standing of Aurora Devine Wood within this pack."I felt my stomach tighten all over again. Somehow, in the chaos of Shane's confrontation, I'd let myself forget that the actual question of my fate hadn't been settled yet, only interrupted, pushed aside by a bigger and louder danger that had, in its own strange way, done some of my arguing for me.Kieran stepped forward before the elder could continue. "Then let me speak plainly, so there's no confusion left in this hall by the time the vote is called. Rory is not a threat to this pack. She has fought fo
REJECTED BY THE MOON THE RECKONING
The ReckoningFor a long moment, nobody in the hall moved. Shane stood at the center of it, the summons stone still raised in his hand, its red glow suddenly looking less like a declaration and more like something exposed, caught mid-motion with nowhere left to hide."Every payment," Victor said again, letting the words carry through the silence he'd created, "traces back through three intermediaries to accounts registered under your seal, Alpha Gledova. I have copies. I have witnesses among your own former couriers, several of whom were more than willing to talk once they understood what you'd been planning to do with the girl you paid this council to hand over.""Lies," Shane said, but the word came out thinner than his earlier composure, less certain, and I watched the crowd hear the difference too."Then dispute it," Kieran said. "Here. Now. In front of this entire hall, with your own ledgers, if you have nothing to hide."Shane's eyes moved across the room, taking in the packed b
REJECTED BY THE MOON THE CLAIM
The ClaimThe hall erupted into noise, dozens of voices rising at once, and I felt the crowd's attention swing between Shane in the doorway and me standing alone at the center of the room like I was the rope in a fight nobody had asked my permission to start."This hearing was called to order," Kieran said, stepping forward, his voice cutting through the chaos with the full weight of an alpha's authority. "You have no standing here, Shane. This is not your pack, and this is not your hall.""No," Shane agreed easily, stepping further inside despite the guards moving to block him, "it isn't. But the matter I've come to raise concerns a wolf whose bloodline predates both our packs, and by the oldest laws still recognized across this entire region, that gives me every right to be heard.""Guards," Kieran started, but the elder who'd been presiding over the hearing raised a hand, silencing him with a look that carried its own quiet authority."Let him speak," the elder said. "If his claim
REJECTED BY THE MOON THE HALL FILLS
The Hall FillsBy the time the sun dropped low enough to paint the sky the deep orange that meant moonrise wasn't far behind, the whole pack had gathered outside the meeting hall, more of them than I'd seen assembled in one place since the night of my own rejection.I stood at the edge of the crowd with Kieran on one side and Elara on the other, Akira and Victor a step behind, and I felt every eye in the courtyard find me the moment we came into view, the same weight of judgment I remembered from weeks ago, except this time I didn't feel like folding under it. Something had changed in me since that night, hardened into something steadier."You don't have to be afraid," Kieran said quietly, close enough that only I could hear him."I'm not afraid," I said, and to my own surprise, I realized it was true. "I'm angry. That's different."Something like pride flickered across his face before he schooled it back into the careful composure an alpha needed to wear walking into a hall full of f
REJECTED BY THE MOON THE MISSING GUARDIAN
Nobody had said Kaiden's name since the boundary. I noticed that walking back through the castle halls, noticed the absence of him the same way you notice a missing tooth with your tongue, an emptiness your whole mouth keeps returning to whether you want it to or not."Where is he," I asked Elara, once we'd reached the room they'd given me to prepare for the hearing, the same room with white walls and gold trim that had once felt like the inside of a cage and now, somehow, felt closer to something I could almost call safe."Kaiden?" Elara's brow furrowed. "I assumed he was with you. He hasn't come by since the night at the shrine, has he?"He hadn't. I hadn't let myself think about it, not with Draven and Victor and the black stone taking up every spare inch of my attention, but now that Elara had said it out loud, the missing piece of it sat heavy in my chest, impossible to ignore any longer."He said he'd protect me," I said. "No matter what it cost him.""Maybe something cost him m
REJECTED BY THE MOON A New ALLIANCE
A New AllianceThe courtyard emptied slowly after that, guards leading Draven away under scrutiny she hadn't experienced in years, her protests thinning with every step, until she disappeared through the gate and the tension gripping the yard began, gradually, to ease.Victor stayed. I watched him linger near the gate long after Draven had gone, his satchel handed off to one of Kieran's most trusted guards, his shoulders finally loosening now that the confrontation was over."You should have told me you suspected her," Kieran said, once the crowd had thinned enough for something like privacy. "Weeks ago.""I should have," Victor agreed. "I was building the case. I wanted it airtight before I brought it to you, because the moment I did, she'd have every reason to move against me instead of waiting to be exposed."It was a reasonable answer. I noticed that, standing there, and I also noticed something underneath it I couldn't quite name yet, a carefulness in the way Victor chose his wor

CHAPTER 6.My parents were seriously bent on getting rid of me. I guess they saw me as a burden that they should quickly toss away. “Rebecca!” my mother said. She claimed up the stairs and walked towards my room. I ran back into my room and opened the window. I was going to jump, but the front was
