Se connecterSaoirse was always meant to be a Luna, but never like this. Torn between fate and desire, she becomes the center of a ruthless power struggle that leaves her body and soul scarred. Renzo, the Alpha who claimed her first, burns with a dangerous obsession. His love is no gentle devotion—it is possession, relentless and consuming. Every rose he planted, every oath he swore, every piece of her life was built around the belief that she belonged only to him. When the Moon Goddess fated her to Blaze, Renzo’s obsession twisted into something darker—something neither Saoirse nor Blaze can fully escape. Blaze, fierce and unyielding, recognizes Saoirse as his fated mate and vows to protect her at all costs. Yet every time he tries to claim her, Renzo is there—haunting, threatening, reminding them both that he will never let go. His shadow poisons every kiss, every promise, every fragile moment of peace. At the ceremony meant to unite mates before the packs, Saoirse shatters. Dragged in chains, she kneels before Blaze, confessing her love for Renzo in front of all. Magic erupts from her in a storm of fury and despair, forcing Blaze to mark her as his before she slips away completely. But even as his teeth sink into her skin, Renzo’s grip lingers—unyielding, unbreakable. Now, caught between Blaze’s devotion and Renzo’s obsession, Saoirse stands at the edge of ruin. One man is her destiny, the other her downfall… But which one will she choose?
Voir plus「彼と結婚してからもう二十年が経つのね……」
暁(あかつき)家の令嬢であり、今は神宮司夫人である瀬奈(せな)は広い部屋でポツリと呟いた。
彼女は今日もある人物を待ち続けている。来るはずがないとわかっていながらも、瀬奈は二十年間ずっと彼の来訪を心待ちにしているのだ。
「一体どこから私は間違えてしまったのかしら……」
ベッドサイドに腰かけた瀬奈は、彼と初めて出会ったときのことを思い浮かべた。
「初めまして、神宮司湊斗です」
「……」
神宮司湊斗(じんぐうじみなと)と名乗った彼に、強く心惹かれたのを瀬奈は今でも覚えている。一目惚れだったのかもしれない。
サラサラの黒い髪、高い鼻梁、切れ長の美しい瞳、幼いながらに整った顔立ち。瀬奈は一瞬にして彼に心を奪われてしまった。
暁グループの令嬢だった瀬奈と、神宮司財閥の御曹司だった湊斗。
二人は許嫁だった。そのことを父親から聞かされたとき、瀬奈はとても喜んだ。彼女にとって初恋の相手であり、愛する湊斗と結婚できるのだと。
しかし、彼のほうはそうではなかった。
湊斗は瀬奈との婚約中、多くの女性と浮名を流した。学校の同級生、年上の社会人、父親が経営する会社の社員にまで。彼は相手の身分関係なく手を出した。
瀬奈は自分には指一本触れないにもかかわらず、他の女性と関係を持ち続ける湊斗に不満がないわけではなかった。しかし、彼に嫌われるのを恐れていた瀬奈は何も言うことができなかった。
「結婚前に遊びたいだけだろう。神宮司家の正妻になれるのだから、それくらいは目を瞑りなさい」
父親は湊斗が遊んでいることを知っていたが、瀬奈に我慢しろと言った。
両親からも味方してもらえなかった瀬奈は、必死で自分に言い聞かせた。
彼女たちはただの遊びであり、自分は神宮家の夫人となる女だ。だから結婚すればきっと自分だけを見てくれる、とそう信じていた。
しかし、現実は残酷だった。
湊斗は結婚してもなお、瀬奈の元には訪れることなく、愛人の元で夜を過ごした。そのことを責めた瀬奈に、彼は言い放った。
「お前を愛することはできない、これからは俺の行動に口を出さないでくれ」
彼の目は初めて出会った頃とは別人のように冷たかった。
それから湊斗は瀬奈に指一本触れることなく、多くの愛人を囲い、彼女たちとの間に五人もの子供をもうけた。そのうちの誰かに会社を継がせるつもりのようだ。
「奥様ったら、今日も一人ぼっちでいるわ」
瀬奈は湊斗の帰ってこない邸宅に一人取り残された。彼は今日もきっと愛人たちの住む家へ帰っているのだろう。
しかし、湊斗を愛している彼女は毎日のように彼を待ち続けた。自分の元へ来るわけがないとわかっていながらも。
そんなことを続けているうちに、二十年という歳月が経過していた。瀬奈と湊斗はお互いに三十八歳となった。
彼女は既に子を望めるような年齢ではなくなり、湊斗のほうも新しく愛人となった若く美しい女に夢中になっていると聞いている。
瀬奈の中で、何かが音を立てて崩れ落ちて行くようだった。
二十年という年月はあまりにも長すぎた。彼女の心は既に限界を迎えていた。
翌朝、心配そうに彼女に声をかけたのは湊斗の秘書だった。
「奥様……」
普段別邸で暮らしている湊斗の私物を取りに来る彼は、たびたび瀬奈とも顔を合わせていた。神宮司家で彼女を気にかけてくれていた数少ない人だ。
「今日も湊斗は愛人のところにいるんでしょう?」
「そ、それは……」
彼の秘書・中田一馬(なかたかずま)が言いづらそうに視線を逸らした。
知ったところで今さら驚きもしない。湊斗が瀬奈の元を訪れることなど、この二十年間数えるほどしかなかったのだから。
それでも彼女は彼のことを信じて待っていたが。
「いいのよ、わかっているから」
「……」
彼はうつむいた。瀬奈が辛い思いをしていることを知っておきながら、何もしてあげられないことに罪の意識を抱いていた。
しかし、今日の瀬奈の表情はいつもと違うと、彼は思った。これまでは湊斗に対する希望を見せていたにもかかわらず、今はどこか諦念に似たものを彼は感じた。
「中田さん、私最後に行きたい場所があるの。よかったら付き添ってくれない?」
「は、はい!奥様!」
”最後”という言葉に疑問を感じながらも、中田は彼女について行った。
Saoirse’s POV The conversation with Renzo had been necessary. There was no denying the truth—we would always love each other, in some quiet, unspoken way. Too much bound us together: years of tangled history, memories always being side by side, and Selene. Our daughter was a living reminder of what once existed between us. But as I lifted my eyes and saw Blaze walking toward me with little Luna bouncing at his side, my heartbeat quickened and my lips curved into a smile that only he could draw from me. Renzo and I would always share a tie, but my love for Blaze was absolute, all-consuming, leaving no room for doubt. I chuckled softly when I heard Blaze arguing with the girls, their voices high and insistent about ice cream. Luna’s dramatic stomps echoed across the garden, and Selene’s silver hair bobbed as she tugged at Blaze’s leg. She had woken. Up as soon as she heard him. He handled their chaos with his usual blend of patience and mock sternness. It wasn’t until Renzo whisked
Renzo’s POV The birth of my son, Enzo, was a joyous occasion for the Moonshadow Pack. Aza was incredible throughout the labor, her strength shining through every moment. I never stopped holding her hand or whispering my love, though I silently promised this would be her last pup. I couldn’t bear the thought of her suffering like that again. Saoirse and Dido assisted her through the delivery, and their presence was steady and sure. I couldn’t deny that seeing Saoirse waddle about with her enormous belly stirred strange emotions in me—joy for her, pride in how far she had come, but also something more dangerous that I forced deep down. I kissed Aza’s temple as she drifted off, exhausted but glowing. Little Enzo was latched onto her breast, nursing fiercely, and I reached out to steady him. “She is all healed now. She needs to sleep to regain her strength,” Saoirse said softly, her voice smooth and low. That voice… gods, it always slid under my skin, reminding me of things I shoul
Blaze’s POV --- A Few Months Later “When I find my mate, I’ll have a grand wedding like Aunty Dido,” Selene announced confidently, standing on her tiptoes as though making herself taller gave her authority. “My wedding will be even more spectacular than yours!” Luna countered, her little hands on her hips. They had picked up those extravagant phrases from Elda—there was no doubt about it. I laughed under my breath, shaking my head. “I’m sorry to break it to you, girls, but you won’t get married until you’re at least thirty.” They gasped dramatically, clutching their tiny hands to their cheeks in horror. The look on their faces nearly made me choke on my laugh. Before I could tease them further, Saoirse whispered through my mind, brushing over the bond like a feather-light caress. Blaze. Even though she barely whispered, her call carried to me, threaded with the urgency of her power. Instantly, I wanted to drop everything and run to her. “Okay, little ladies, your mama is callin
Azalea’s POV I woke in Renzo’s arms, his warmth anchoring me to the bed as if the world outside did not exist. My eyes flicked to the clock on the bedside table—oh no. We were late. Renzo’s sister was getting married in just a few hours, and instead of being up and about, here we were, tangled in sheets and each other. I shifted slightly, only to feel his morning arousal pressing insistently against my thigh. “Renzo,” I whispered, brushing his jaw, “we’re late. Your sister is waiting for us.” He only grunted in response, his hand snaking around my waist to pull me closer. His lips grazed my mate mark, sending a wave of sparks coursing through my body. My resolve to push him away melted instantly. It went without saying what happened next—my mate was relentless, passionate, and utterly consuming. I bit my lip to stop the moans from spilling out, my body arching as he took me with a hunger that made the world outside irrelevant. When he finally carried me into the bathroom, both of
Saoirse’s POV I woke nestled in Blaze’s arms, his warmth cocooning me. The ache in my body was a vivid reminder of our passion last night. We hadn’t stopped until dawn. As I shifted, I felt him stir behind me, his body already responding. “Blaze, don’t,” I whispered with a soft whimper. “I’m too s
Saoirse’s POV “Pietr! How?! How did they know we were here?!” I screamed, panic clawing at my chest. This place was meant to be secret, impenetrable. I pressed my hands to his wounded shoulder, my magic flaring instinctively. Goddess Hecate… no. The wound was far too close to his heart. My father a
Azalea's PoV Renzo—or rather, Vlad—smirked at me and lounged casually in the chair, watching me writhe in pain as though it were entertainment. My eyes blurred with tears. My children… what would become of them? Renzo’s parents were on business, and the rest of the pack feared going against their
Azalea's PoV Renzo and I materialized in our living room. Thankfully, our two-year-old twins weren’t here. The silence was a blessing. When he left this morning, I had overheard his conversation with Shane. Shane told him she was back—that Saoirse had returned and gone to rescue Blaze. I begged Re
