Chapter 8

Author: Crystal K
Elysia’s POV

Everyone in the auction hall turned to stare at Lydia.

Seeing she had everyone’s attention, she grew bolder.

“It’s her fault!” she shrieked, her finger trembling as she pointed at me. “She’s the reason we lost the quarry! She leaked our bottom line to the Silverclaws—on purpose!”

A wave of gasps went through the room.

Losing the Moonstone territory was a massive blow for any pack.

“Lydia, shut up!” Damon’s face was dark as he tried to silence her.

“Why should I?” she shrieked back. “She needs to take responsibility for what she did! During the negotiations, she deliberately revealed our strategy, giving the Silverclaw Pack the upper hand!”

“Enough!” Damon roared.

But Lydia couldn’t stop.

“You did it for revenge! Because he chose me over you! So she made sure the Blackmoon Pack would suffer! And now that she’s found a new Alpha, she thinks she can just walk away?”

Her voice grew higher and more frantic.

“No way! She cost you so much. She has to pay it back!”

  • Refuse To Be One of His Thirty Luna Candidates   Chapter 10

    Elysia’s POVOne month later.A video clip spread through the werewolf world.“Blackmoon Alpha Damon Blackmoon was found passed out drunk in the snow last night, muttering to himself, ‘I’ve lost Elysia for good’…”I turned off the news and held my baby closer.My son.Adrian’s son.A pure-blooded Alpha, so powerful that every wolf in the pack could feel his presence.“He’ll be the strongest Alpha,” Adrian whispered, kissing my forehead. “Just as strong as his mother.”Knock, knock, knock—A knock at the door interrupted our peaceful moment.“Luna, you have a visitor,” the maid’s voice was nervous.The door swung open, and Lydia swept in.She was just as pregnant as I, draped in a gown so lavish it was absurd for a casual visit, and clutching a certificate like a trophy.“Congratulations, Elysia,” her voice was sickeningly sweet. “A mother at last.”I glanced at her belly.Eight months along.“What do you want?”“Business, of course,” she held up the certificate. “I wanted you to see th

    Elysia’s POVThree months later.My belly was a heavy, perfect sphere. Our pup was due in a month.Adrian took care of my every need, even holding my arm when I walked.“A message from your friend,” he said, handing me a comm crystal.It was Maya, my friend from the Blackmoon Pack.“Elysia, you have to see this,” her voice was buzzing with gossip. “It’s about your ex.”An image appeared on the crystal.It was the Blackmoon Pack’s great hall.Damon sat at the head of the table, surrounded by a few of his men, empty bottles everywhere.“Finally free!” one of them cheered. “No one telling us when to hold meetings or when to train!”“Yeah!” another agreed. “Elysia was a damn control freak. Always breathing down our necks about patrols, training schedules... even who we were sleeping with.”“That’s how she-wolves are,” a third man slurred. “Always think they’re right about everything.”The image of Damon raised his glass.“To a new beginning!” he said, his voice drunk. “To a life with no on

    Elysia’s POVDamon looked like he’d been struck by lightning.“Impossible,” he stammered. “You two… when…”“Four months ago,” I answered calmly. “Right after I returned to my home pack.”The blood drained from his face, leaving it a ghastly white. His eyes burned with a wild, cornered fury.“You… how could you…”“How could I what?” I raised an eyebrow. “Find a new mate so quickly? Or forget you so quickly?”“Six years!” he roared. “We had six years of history, and you threw it all away for him?”“Six years,” I corrected him. “Built on a lie. A magical deception from the very beginning.”Whispers erupted around the auction hall. The other packs had heard us.“A Soul-link spell?”“An Alpha cast a spell on his own Head Beta?”“Gods, a six-year charade…”Damon heard the chatter, and his face grew even darker.“Elysia, you can’t say these things here!”“Why not?” my voice rose. “Afraid people will see you for who you really are?”“That’s not true!” he denied frantically. “My feelings were r

    Elysia’s POVFour months later.I gently stroked my round belly, feeling the powerful life growing inside me.The life inside me was pure Alpha. I could feel its power humming in my blood.“The Moon-Essence Herb is at the auction today,” Adrian whispered in my ear. “It’s very good for a pup’s soul development.”“Really?” My eyes lit up. “Then we have to get it.”The herb was incredibly rare, said to grow only in the deep mountains on a full moon, and it was known to strengthen an Alpha pup’s soul.The Crystal Auction House was in a neutral zone, a place where packs traded rare goods.When we arrived, the auction had already started.“I need to handle something urgent,” Adrian said, frowning at an incoming call. “You go on in. I’ll be right back.”I nodded and walked into the auction hall alone.The Moon-Essence Herb was last, so I waited patiently.Just then, a familiar voice came from behind me.“Elysia?”I turned to see Lydia on Damon’s arm.Damon looked worn out, with dark circles u

  • Refuse To Be One of His Thirty Luna Candidates   Chapter 5

    Damon’s POVAfter I posted the announcement canceling the ceremony, Lydia threw herself into my arms.“I’ll prove I’m a better Luna for you than she ever was,” she whispered in my ear.I pushed her away and walked to my desk.I still had a list of ten other candidates to get through. But the thought of it just left me cold.The carefully selected she-wolves sent me messages every day, but I never replied.Some nights, after a brutal day of pack business, I’d call Lydia to my chambers.I didn’t know why, but burying myself in her body was the only thing that made me feel like an Alpha anymore.Her soft moans helped me forget the day’s troubles.But the pleasure only lasted until dawn.Because after several months without Elysia, the pack was starting to fall apart.“Alpha, there’s trouble on the border again,” my second-in-command, Beta Marcus, said, walking into my office with a grim look.“What is it?”“The Silverclaw Pack just tore up our trade agreement. They said our leadership is
