LOGINSelina Vanderbilt was raised for one destiny—to become a Luna. Groomed into perfection, she believed her future was secure until everything crumbled on her wedding day. In front of her entire pack, her fated mate, Alpha Matteo, uttered the words that shattered her world: he rejected her. Humiliated and heartbroken, Selina is swept into chaos as war erupts between rival packs. Forced to flee, she escapes into the human world, where no one knows her name, her lineage, or the pain she carries. There, she tries to live an ordinary life, far from the chains of duty and expectation. But even as she hides, her heart aches for the family she left behind—and for the Alpha who broke it. Because rejection was never the end. When fate draws Selina and Matteo back into each other’s lives, old wounds resurface, but so does the bond that never truly died. Amidst the threat of war, betrayal, and forbidden longing, they will be forced to face not only their past, but the love that still burns between them. This time, will the Alpha say yes?
View MoreCasiddy wasn’t kidding when she said the cafeteria was a battlefield. The moment we walked in, the roar of chatter and clatter of trays nearly overwhelmed me. Lines of students snaked around every corner, laughter and shouts blending into a chaos I wasn’t used to. Back home—if I could even call it home anymore—meals were shared with family. Structured. Familiar. Not like this storm of strangers.“Stick close,” Casiddy said, grinning as she tugged me toward a shorter line. “This one’s faster, but the food’s… questionable.”I chuckled softly, surprising even myself. “Questionable?”“You’ll see,” she said with a wink.When we finally sat down with our trays, Casiddy started chatting about classes, professors, and places on campus I “absolutely had to see.” Her words poured out like sunlight, warming me more than I expected. I mostly listened, nodding now and then, my own silence hidden beneath her easy confidence.Then she leaned forward, studying me with curious green eyes. “So, Selina…
Selina's POVThe campus halls are buzzing with life. Students hurry past with books tucked under their arms, laughter spilling in all directions. I keep my eyes on the floor as I walk, clutching my bag close to me. The weight of Elias’s words still echoes in my mind: Dont be shy to show yourself out there.Inside the classroom, rows of desks stretch out neatly. Most of the seats are already filled, but I quietly slip into one at the back near the window. From here, I can see the trees swaying outside—it feels safer to have an escape, even if it’s only in my imagination.“Alright, class,” the professor says, standing at the front with a warm smile. “Let’s start today by introducing ourselves. Just your name, maybe a hobby or interest, so we can all get to know each other better.”The room hums with chatter as students take turns speaking.“I’m Lucas. I play basketball, so if anyone’s up for a game, let me know,” one boy says, earning a few nods and laughs.“I’m Marissa. I love painting
Matteo's POVThe council chamber is a storm tonight. Their voices batter me from every direction, each elder convinced their fears outweigh the rest. I stand at the center, the firelight licking at my crown, yet there is no warmth in it, only the cold weight of their judgment.“Your Majesty, the Vanderbilts must not be summoned!” one roars, his fist crashing against the oak table.“They are unruly, defiant...dangerous to our pack!” another snaps, and soon the chorus builds, a tide threatening to drown me.I clench my jaw, letting their words cut into me, though my chest twists with doubt. Could we truly afford this? The Bloodshed Pack bleeds warriors every day, while these old men cling to pride like it will shield them from the blade. Arthur Vanderbilt defied me once, spat on my authority before the eyes of many. That wound still festers. Yet even I cannot ignore the truth: perhaps an alliance with his bloodline is the only thing standing between us and ruin.I draw a breath, ready t
Selina's POV“And by the way, Selina,” Elias said after a sip of his coffee, his tone calm but deliberate, “I have a few simple rules for you here in the house. These rules aren’t meant to restrict you. They’re only here to keep you safe and comfortable while you’re staying with me.”I straightened in my seat, giving him my full attention.“The first one,” he began, “is that since you’re still unfamiliar with this place and New York is an enormous city—if you ever want to go out, make sure Xilian or Gregory is with you. Never go alone.”I nodded quickly. That was reasonable enough.“The second,” he continued, his gaze meeting mine more firmly this time, “is to always keep your bedroom door closed or locked, especially when I’m not here. Understand?”“Yes, I’ll do that,” I assured him, though a ripple of unease passed through me. Why would he say it like that?I tilted my head, trying to sound casual. “What’s the third one?”His expression shifted slightly, the warm ease from earlier fa
