Ruth's POV

The pen looked wrong in his hand.

I stood in the doorway of my father's study, watching Langmore hold the silver fountain pen my grandfather had used to sign treaties that ended wars. His fingers wrapped around it like it was a weapon, but he wasn't fighting. He was surrendering.

Nineteen pages lay spread across my father's mahogany desk. I had read every word last night while Luna slept in her crib, her tiny chest rising and falling in the steady rhythm that only came when both her

  • The Alpha King's Hidden Luna   Chapter Seven

    Ruth's POVThe glass wall between them was my idea.I stood in the observation room above the medical wing, watching through the one-way mirror as Langmore pressed his palm against the partition. On the other side, Luna lay in her crib, her tiny fingers reaching toward the glass she couldn't understand. Reaching toward the father she could smell but not touch.Two Silver Crown warriors flanked Langmore like statues. They had escorted him from the border, through the pack house, down the sterile corridors, never letting him walk more than three steps without supervision. He had not complained. He had not even spoken.Dr. Chen stood beside me, her tablet glowing with numbers I didn't want to read. A stopwatch app counted the seconds in the corner of the screen. We were eighteen minutes into the forty-minute visitation window."Her temperature is dropping," Chen said quietly. "Heart rate stabilizing. Oxygen levels improving."I watched Langmore's shoulders relax as Luna's crying softened

    Ruth's POVThe pen looked wrong in his hand.I stood in the doorway of my father's study, watching Langmore hold the silver fountain pen my grandfather had used to sign treaties that ended wars. His fingers wrapped around it like it was a weapon, but he wasn't fighting. He was surrendering.Nineteen pages lay spread across my father's mahogany desk. I had read every word last night while Luna slept in her crib, her tiny chest rising and falling in the steady rhythm that only came when both her parents were near. Nineteen pages of conditions, restrictions, and humiliations designed to break an Alpha's pride into dust.My father sat behind the desk, his silver-streaked hair catching the morning light through the tall windows. Marcus stood at his right shoulder like a shadow. Neither of them looked at me. They were watching Langmore the way wolves watch wounded prey."You understand what you're signing," my father said. It wasn't a question.Langmore's jaw tightened. "I understand.""Rea

    Ruth's POVSix months should have been enough time to forget him.I stood in the nursery, folding tiny clothes for the hundredth time, trying to ignore the ache in my chest. The room was perfect—soft yellows and greens, a beautiful crib my father had handcrafted, shelves full of toys and books.Everything a pup could want. Everything except a father."You're thinking about him again."I turned to find Marcus in the doorway, holding a tray of food."No, I'm not," I lied."Your scent gives you away." He set the tray down. "You always smell like rain when you think of him."I hated that he was right. Even with the bond severed, I couldn't stop thinking about Langmore. Wondering where he was. If he was okay."Any news from Bloodmoon?" I asked, trying to sound casual.Marcus hesitated. "Ruth...""Just tell me.""It's chaos. Thomas tried to claim Alpha, but half the pack rebelled. Mara gave birth last week, and Thomas immediately announced the pup wasn't his. He rejected them both.""What?"

    Ruth's POV"This is going to hurt."The pack shaman, an ancient woman named Elena, placed herbs in a circle around me. The basement ritual room smelled of sage and something bitter that made my nose burn."I've felt worse," I said, trying to sound braver than I felt.James stood nearby, watching with concern. "We can wait—""No," I cut him off. "It has to be tonight."Elena looked between us. "You understand what you're asking? Breaking a mate bond while pregnant... I've only seen it attempted twice. Both times...""What happened?" I asked, though I wasn't sure I wanted to know."One woman survived but lost the pup. The other..." She shook her head. "The other didn't survive at all."My hand went to my stomach protectively. "There has to be another way.""The only other way is acceptance," Elena said. "Both parties accepting the rejection. Without that, we force the bond to break. It's... violent.""Do it," I said before I could change my mind.Elena began chanting in the old language

  • The Alpha King's Hidden Luna   Chapter Three

    Ruth's POV"You need to eat something."Marcus pushed a plate of toast toward me, but the smell made my stomach turn. Morning sickness had hit hard in the two weeks since Langmore's visit, though I suspected stress made it worse."I can't," I mumbled, pushing the plate away."The pup needs—""Don't," I snapped. "Don't talk to me about what the pup needs. Everyone suddenly thinks they're an expert on my pregnancy."Marcus sighed. "I'm just worried about you. You barely leave your room, you won't see the pack healer, and Dad says you've been refusing visitors.""What visitors?" I asked, though I already knew."Langmore has sent representatives three times. He's also sent gifts—jewelry, flowers, baby clothes.""Send them back.""Ruth—""I said send them back!" I stood up too quickly and immediately regretted it as the room spun. Marcus caught my arm before I could fall."That's it," he said firmly. "You're seeing the healer. Now.""I'm fine—""You're not fine. You're pale, you're not eat

  • The Alpha King's Hidden Luna   Chapter Two

    Ruth's POV"You look terrible."I glanced up from my untouched breakfast to find my father standing in the doorway. The Alpha King, Daniel Nightshade, looked exactly as I remembered—powerful, commanding, with streaks of silver in his dark hair that only made him look more distinguished."Thanks, Dad. That's exactly what I needed to hear," I muttered, pushing eggs around my plate.He sat down across from me, his blue eyes studying my face. "Three years, Ruth. Three years without a word, and you come home looking like you've been through hell.""Can we not do this right now?" I asked, my voice hoarse from crying all night."When then? When you've locked yourself in your room for another week?" He leaned forward. "Marcus told me what he saw. The Bloodmoon Pack's Alpha was at the border with warriors. What did he do to you?""Nothing I didn't allow," I whispered."Ruth—""I'm pregnant."The words fell out before I could stop them. My father went completely still, his eyes widening."What?
