The next day, I chose a light gray dress—plain and unassuming, yet elegant in cut. Its plainness enabled it to become part of the background without drawing undue attention. Yet, there existed an undeniable elegance in its folds, a subdued sophistication that betrayed practical elegance more than flamboyance. It was a choice made with intention—one that expressed restraint, dignity, and a subtle air of poise worthy of the day to come.It was armor, in its own manner—subtle, unobtrusive, yet calculated. Jay was busy in the meeting room, strategizing with his economic advisor, a fellow who interpreted financial projections the way a general studied maps of battlefields. Their discussion had gone on for an hour already, the ideal amount of time for me to quietly exit unnoticed.I informed Mary that I required some fresh air, and she hardly glanced up at her clipboard before nodding.

I walked towards the main square of the city, but this was not where I was actually headed. My actual target

  • Reborn of the Betrayed Luna   Chapter 62: Shadows in His Eyes

    My legs quivered under me as I fled Jay's study, hardly noticing the corridor I was sprinting along. My eyes were blurring with tears and dizziness. I could hear my heart thudding against my chest, the pounding echoing in my ears. My hands were shaking like crazy, and the corridor wrapped around in my head like some kind of bad dream I was unable to shake.I made it to my room and slammed the door shut behind me, locking it with shaking fingers. I took a step back until I hit the bed and fell onto it. My thoughts were spinning, and there was only one dreadful thought in my head:Why is Jay looking for an assassin?The man I had trusted with every part of my existence… now going to kill me?It wasn't unbelievable. We had changed. He had a baby coming with Samantha—his real mate.I was no longer necessary. Just like before.Would he actually go so far as to kill me? Kill me to make way for his ideal future?A gentle knock on the door made me jump."Melody? You all right?" Mary's voice was soft

  • Reborn of the Betrayed Luna   Chapter 61: The Alpha's Shadow: Secret and Sacrifices

    The air crackled with unspoken tension. Jay was up to something. For the past week, he'd been disappearing frequently, offering no explanation to anyone. As his supposed Luna, his sudden, unannounced outings meant I was left to fill the void, to manage the pack's expectations and his responsibilities. This morning, I'd risen before dawn, determined to confront him. I found him preparing to leave again."Jay, where are you going?" I asked, my voice carefully neutral, though a knot of anxiety tightened in my stomach. "Do you even remember that you have a meeting with the elders today?"He hardly looked at me, his attention apparently concentrated on fixing the cuff of his immaculately suited shirt. "I have urgent matters to see to in connection with my business interests. I instruct you to go to the meeting with the Elders on my behalf.""But Jay," I protested, my voice sharpening, "the meeting is about Samantha's pregnancy! It is about the future of the pack!"He turned then, his eyes

  • Reborn of the Betrayed Luna   Chapter 60: Fading Bonds

    Jay—POVSamantha Smith.What a fucking mess.My fated mate.The Moon Goddess's so-called perfect match for me -- an omega. Out of all the wolves in the realm, she had to go with Samantha.I had believed I could utilize her. That perhaps there was some latent strength I had yet to witness. But no. She was not merely useless, she was a liability. I treated her with clemency because the bond, though imperfect, had a hold. I had a weakness. But the weakness was solidifying.I would not allow one weak omega to destroy all that I had labored to create."She's pregnant."Dr. Evelyn's words were still ringing in my ears long after she had left the room. I hadn't spoken much, nodded once. She knew better than to stick around.I felt my hands shake slightly as I stood by myself. The walls felt like they were closing in on me, tighter and tighter.Samantha. My mate for fate.Pregnant.My pup.The idea made me feel ill.A pup with an omega. No, worse with her. That wasn't in my vision. I'd had an

  • Reborn of the Betrayed Luna   Chapter 59: The Burden of Power

    Jay was on edge. His control had already broken, and as he glared at me, the rage in his gaze told me he was just holding on."What am I supposed to do with a bleeding woman?" he growled to the girls at hand. "Get out of here!"His face was flushed, contorted with anger, totally falling apart before they even had the chance to defend themselves."Um… Alpha," Lydia said softly, her eyes big. "She shouted your name. She screamed your name. She wouldn't let us help her.""What?" Jay barked. "Call Doctor Evelyn if she's bleeding!"I moved forward, cool despite the frisson in the air. I fell into the role I knew they needed—the kind Luna. "Why is she bleeding? Where is she now? Show me.The girls pleaded with wide eyes at me. Before they could respond, Jay caught my arm."Where are you going?" he barked. "We have a conversation to complete! You're not a doctor!"His face was set in anger, lips curled, and he appeared utterly ridiculous in his desperation."It has nothing to do with you—leave her a

  • Reborn of the Betrayed Luna   Chapter 58: Jealousy and Accusation

    I panicked. My thoughts were a confusing whirl, careening in all directions but the one I required. I couldn't make sense of anything.What was a month-long mating ceremony?My breath caught at the idea. Mating? No, no, that couldn't be. I hadn't gone so far and survived so much only to be bound to the very man I was going to bring down.I had stuck with Jay for one reason: to plan his downfall.This was never going to be about love. Not even passion. And certainly not some ancient, binding ceremony that would tie me to him forever. Engagements could be dissolved with a handful of harsh words and a neat departure. But a mating?The moment that f***ker marked me, there would be no turning back.The door slammed open with the power of enthusiasm I couldn't keep up with."Yay, Melody!" Mary shrieked, her tone high and shrill. "I knew the Alpha wouldn't hold out long!" Lydia followed hot on her heels, her face split by a grin so wide it was almost painful. "Miss, you ought to have seen Samantha'

  • Reborn of the Betrayed Luna   Chapter 57: A Flower for Melody

    I wasn't the only one shocked by Alpha Don's announcement.Gasps spread through the assembly, but none quite as biting as the fashion in which the Luna Queen's lips twisted tightly with absolute contempt. Her piercing eyes were on Don, who in return had a face as serene as ever, unflapped by the rising hum of scandal gathering around him.I cursed silently, the words tasting bitter on my tongue. "This wasn't what we planned," I whispered venomously.Did we not talk? The deal was to shift this win, this gigantic accomplishment—meant to boost Don's image. Find a new, single woman. Make her the envious woman whose image everyone wants. Use this as the opportunity to boost his image.Instead, he had deviated from the plan. Totally.Alpha Don stood firm at the border of the ceremonial area. His height was dressed in an elegantly tailored, earth-colored tunic, with delicate embroidery that replicated the markings of his pack.His square jaw was speckled with stubble, and his raven-black hair had
