Chapter 18: The Nursery

last update Data de publicação: 2026-05-07 13:31:30

Luna had been avoiding the empty room on the east wing of the suite for three weeks.

It wasn’t because she didn’t want a nursery for Aurora. She did. More than anything.

It was because every time she walked past that door, her hands trembled and her heart raced with a fear she couldn’t name.

What if something went wrong?

What if Aurora never got to sleep in that crib?

What if Luna wasn’t a good enough mother?

Luna sat on the edge of their bed, staring at the closed door, her hand r

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Luna   Chapter 26: The Letter With Her Maiden Name

    Luna woke to cold sheets and an empty space beside her. For five years, Asher’s body heat had been her alarm clock. His scent, pine and snow and something darker that was only him, told her she was safe before her eyes even opened. Tonight, there was only cold.Her hand moved to her stomach before her mind caught up. The baby kicked hard. Too hard. As if she felt the absence too. Seven months along and the little girl had her father’s temper already.“Luna?” The word came out soft, broken by sleep. No answer. The suite door stood open. Just a crack. Snow drifted in on the wind, melting on the stone floor in dark patches. The fire had died to embers. Moonlight made everything look like ghosts.Luna pushed herself up slowly. Pregnancy had made every movement heavier. Her back ached. Her feet swelled. But her wolf was alert. Her wolf had felt Asher leave. Her wolf had felt his fear through their bond.Something was wrong.She wrapped the silver cloak around her shoulders. It still smel

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Luna   Chapter 25: The Final Moon

    Five years had passed since Aurora’s first birthday.The mountains of Moonlight Pack were covered in a fresh layer of snow, the moon hanging high and bright in the clear winter sky. The packhouse glowed with warm light from every window, laughter and music spilling out into the cold night. Luna stood on the balcony of their suite, wrapped in a thick silver cloak, watching the scene below. Aurora was now six years old. She ran through the courtyard with her younger brother, Lucas, who was four, both of them laughing as they threw snowballs at each other. Aurora’s hair was white-blonde like Luna’s, her eyes gray like Asher’s. Lucas had Asher’s dark hair and Luna’s gray eyes. Luna’s hand rested gently on her third pregnancy — seven months along now, a baby girl due in spring. Luna smiled softly and placed her hand over her stomach, feeling the baby kick gently. “You’re restless tonight, little one,” Luna whispered quietly, her voice filled with love. Asher walked out onto the b

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Luna   Chapter 24: The Winter Moon

    One year and three months had passed since Aurora was born.Winter had returned to Moonlight Pack, but this time the snow didn’t feel cold or empty. It felt peaceful. Safe. Like a blanket covering the mountains and the packhouse and the people inside. Luna stood on the balcony of their suite, wrapped in Asher’s thick fur cloak, watching the snow fall in soft, silent sheets. Aurora was two months old now — no, Luna corrected herself with a smile — Aurora was fifteen months old. She was walking now. Running, actually, whenever she thought no one was looking. Luna’s hand rested on her stomach again. Another life was growing there. Another Blackwood. Due in six months. Luna hadn’t planned it. But when she found out three weeks ago, she hadn’t been scared. Not this time. This time she felt ready. This time she felt loved. This time she felt home. “Asher,” Luna said quietly, her voice barely above a whisper. “Come see this.”Asher walked out onto the balcony a moment later, carrying

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Luna   Chapter 23: The Oath

    One year had passed.One year since the storm. One year since Luna’s screams echoed through the packhouse. One year since Aurora’s first cry filled the silent room and changed everything. Today was Aurora’s first birthday. The great hall of Moonlight Pack had been transformed. White and silver banners hung from the stone walls. Tables were covered in fresh bread, roasted meat, fruit, and a massive cake decorated with tiny silver wolves. String lights hung from the rafters, casting a warm golden glow across the room. The entire pack had gathered — all five of Asher’s packs, over a thousand wolves standing together in celebration. The air was filled with laughter, music, and the smell of good food. But Luna wasn’t looking at the crowd. Luna was looking at Aurora. Aurora sat on the floor in the center of the hall, wearing a tiny white dress with silver trim and a flower crown made of white roses. She was crawling around, laughing as she chased a small silver ball that one of

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Luna   Chapter 22: The Introduction

    Aurora was seven days old when Luna decided it was time.She stood in front of the full-length mirror in their suite, wearing a soft cream dress that buttoned in the front for nursing. Aurora was wrapped in a white swaddle with silver trim, sleeping peacefully against Luna’s chest in the baby carrier Asher had commissioned from the pack’s weaver. Luna looked different. Softer. Tired, yes, with dark circles under her eyes. But there was a light in her gray eyes that hadn’t been there before. A quiet confidence. A strength that came from holding life in her arms. Asher stood behind her, his hands resting gently on her shoulders as he looked at their reflection in the mirror. He was dressed in his formal Alpha attire — black tunic with silver wolf embroidery, hair pulled back neatly. But his expression was anything but formal. He looked nervous. Terrified, actually. “Luna,” Asher said quietly, his voice filled with hesitation. “Are you sure you’re ready? The pack will be loud. Ther

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Luna   Chapter 21: The First Night

    The storm had finally quieted by dawn.Outside the packhouse, the mountains were blanketed in fresh snow, the sky pale blue and silent. Inside Luna and Asher’s suite, the only sounds were the crackle of the fireplace and the soft, steady breathing of a newborn.Aurora slept in Luna’s arms, wrapped in a white blanket with silver embroidery, her tiny face peaceful and pink. She weighed just 5 pounds 2 ounces, but to Luna and Asher, she felt like the entire world.Luna hadn’t slept in 28 hours. Her body ached, her lips were cracked, her eyes were heavy. But she couldn’t close them. Not when Aurora was finally here. Not when she was real. Not when she was theirs.Asher sat on the edge of the bed beside Luna, his arm around her shoulders, holding her up as much as he was holding Aurora. He hadn’t left their side since Aurora was born. He hadn’t eaten. He hadn’t slept. He hadn’t even changed out of his blood-stained shirt.He just watched.Watched Luna hold their daughter like she was made
