“I Carter Reed,heir of Alpha Thorn Reed of the red moon pack, reject you, luana smith of the crimson pack as my mate”.

His eyes burning with anger and hatred. A loud ear piercing scream escaped my mouth as I scrambled to the floor, legs very weak, almost limp from the pain of his rejection.

My breath seized. Tears poured, almost blinding me as I felt the worst pain on my shoulder bone he marked me.

This day was supposed to be special. The day I exchanged vows with my long love, my boyfriend,Carter. I had gotten to the location of the wedding hoping to start a new life with Carter only to find out that he was getting married to someone else, not just anyone, it was my sister!.

The disgust was evident on his face when he looked up at me. His eyes that I got lost in used to hold so much love. Carter and I have been together for years before he asked me to marry him. He was the son of the alpha of the red moon pack.

He wasn't my mate but I loved him anyway. It was hard to find mates in our world, more like they don't exist so we go for whoever we fall in love with. He had marked me willingly. I thought it was forever, never thought for once he would reject our bond someday like he never loved me.

I shivered, my lips trembling “What's my offense? I asked looking at his cold face ”why cause me so much pain?.

He clenched his fists, anger and rage visible in his once loving eyes, “you whore! You betrayed me, you're a murderer, you dare not call me a betrayal! Everything has been falling apart ever since you came into my world!.

His words were like a stab to my heart.

My mum died while giving birth to me. So I was labelled bad luck, a murderer, bad things seemed to happen in my pack upon my presence. Even though I was just a child, they didn't mind. Instead they threw me out and disowned me, no one spared me , no one .

A touch from behind brought me out of my thoughts. It was Maria, my foster mother, she took care of me when everyone left me. She made sure I lacked nothing down to my education through a little pharmacy she managed. I have gained enough ideas and insight about medicine and herbal drugs by helping run and take care of the pharmacy.

“Luana” she called softly, let it slide, you will be seen as the bad one if you try to stop them. She cared, unlike the others.

“A murderer?” Thought you were different from the others! You claimed to love me, you said nothing could ever fade your love for me, what changed?” I asked, tears blurring my view.

“Can't you see luana! My life has been a mess ever since I met you, everyone despises me now. It won't be possible for me to become the next alpha if I get married to you. You're wolfless!”

The crowd gasped in shock as I slapped him.

“I can't believe you said that loud enough for everyone to hear even after knowing the reason that happened.

I had lost my wolf in a tough battle. Everyone hated me including my so-called dad. I had to gain his attention and trust, so I joined the pack soldiers, it wasn't easy but with the help of my wolf and Maria I was able to get hold of a position as a low ranked soldier. At first I didn't figure out dad's reason for letting me join the soldiers but after the battle that almost took my life, I understood that my choice was of benefit to him, he never cared about me anyways.

Everything was working well until that fateful battle that took her away from me.

We were stabbed with 10 spares poisoned with silver, more on her lower belly. Nobody came to our rescue.

“Laura! No! Please stay with me” I begged

“Stay alive”. Those were her last words to me before she died. I have been living with guilt ever since then.

She died because of me! She could have survived but she chose to save me with her last breath.

I survived and lived because of her but then the loneliness I felt was out of this world.

“If you would excuse Luana, she is not in the right state of mind now” my sister Michelle announced. This is such a happy day for me and my family and I want everyone to be happy with us too and not sad.

“Wow, she's such an angel, so kind and considerate” I can't believe they're sisters.

“Everyone cheer for our soon to be bride and Luna, Michelle! The crowd cheered like she was some kind of celebrity.

Maria shook her head “if only they knew the kind of person she was behind closed doors, if only they knew how wicked and heartless she was to her sister whenever they crossed part.

The wedding commenced, the rituals were performed, I watched as the man I once loved exchanged vows with my sister, smiles beaming on their faces as they swapped rings. My heart ached , “will I ever have such a fate?”

Dad came up to the wedding floor and blessed the couple as required. Planting a peck on Michelle's face then hugged her afterwards. He never cared about me in such a manner, “would he ever care ?”

Maria held me “I'm sorry this is happening to you my daughter, if I knew things would turn out this way I wouldn't have brought you here. I never knew their hatred could go this far” she said, looking at me with concern.

“I have ensured a lot for so long, I don't think I can bear it anymore”

I stared at Carter. He was smiling at the camera man, no remorse.

“Let's go home Maria; I can't stand this anymore” I need something to calm me down, I need rest. She gave a quiet nod.

“Let's go,” she said. A few steps out of the door Ryan blocked our way.

“Your dad demands your presence in his study,” he said.

    Our conversation, however, came to an abrupt halt at the sound of an unfamiliar voice."And who exactly is going to take her shopping? You?" The voice belonged to someone leaning against the doorframe, and the moment we both looked up, my breath caught. Of all people — it was Gina. She strolled in as though she owned the place, dragging a chair over and dropping into it across from us. Kyle's jaw tightened visibly. He didn't bother masking his irritation."What are you doing here?"She pierced a chunk of her salad with her fork and answered flatly, "Eating breakfast. Obviously."His eyes narrowed. "I was under the impression you'd joined the breakfast boycott committee."Gina chewed slowly, unbothered. "That's on them. I never agreed to stop having breakfast with everyone." A quiet smile pulled at the corner of my mouth. Honestly, I was glad she had shown up. I'd been carrying a weight of guilt over how Kyle's family seemed to be drifting further from him — and somehow, I felt respons

    Money was a crucial factor for my future survival here. It was not only necessary for covering my daily expenses, but also for building a solid financial foundation that could carry me through the uncertainties ahead. I needed a stable source of income — something reliable, something I could count on when everything else around me felt so fragile and unpredictable. The question gnawed at me constantly, threading itself through every waking thought like a needle pulling at loose string. But how could I ensure that? How could someone like me, in a position like mine, carve out any real sense of security in a place that still felt so foreign?My thoughts came to an abrupt halt as I stepped out of my room and found Kyle waiting for me in the hallway. The sight of him standing there, calm and composed, sent a sudden rush of warmth crawling up the back of my neck. Memories of our actions from the previous night flooded my mind in an unstoppable wave, vivid and uninvited, and I struggled des

    He let out a low growl on hearing his name on my lips, and pulled down my night dress in a swift motion, exposing my undergarments.His large hands kneaded my breasts before undoing the hook of my bra. My breasts spilled out of the unhooked bra, and heat crept up to my face. I was a cup c, so I hoped he loved what he saw . “You're fucking adorable.” He whispered into my ears and rushed to my face. He bent down to plant wet kisses on my cheeks, down to my neck, and my chest till they reached the tip of my breast and slipped it into his mouth. “Uhmmm!” I cried out in pleasure as I felt his tongue circling my nipple while his other hand massaged my second breast. He made his way down my thighs and opened my legs before his fingers tickled the wet spot of my panties. I bit my lower lip as his touch triggered a burning desire within my body . He hooked a finger on my thong before sliding it down my legs , my wet pussy was left bare and unclad in front of him but he didn't move but instead

    “But it’s not her fault,” I interjected before the situation could spiral completely out of control. “I was the one persuading her about it. I apologize. I’m simply not very familiar with northern fashion.”The excuse sounded weak even to my own ears, but it was the only explanation I could offer. Ever since my arrival, subtle remarks about my appearance and the way I dressed had made it painfully obvious that I did not meet the standards expected within this manor. Gina’s mother stared at me with visible disdain as she slowly stepped around the counter, positioning herself directly in front of me.Then, without warning, she pulled a knife from the holder nearby and pointed it straight at me.My breath caught instantly.The sharp tip hovered dangerously close to my right eye, causing my entire body to stiffen in shock. Behind me, Gina gasped loudly as Joanne extended the blade closer, her hand trembling ever so slightly.A fierce fire burned within her eyes.“Don’t you dare harm my da

    Joanne's povI turned and stepped toward his desk, his attention still fixed on the documents spread before him. The silver frames resting on the bridge of his nose suited him perfectly, though he only wore them when his eyes is fixed on books . Not once had he looked at me wearing them .“My dear,” I began calmly “I find myself increasingly concerned about Kyle. Something about that girl does not sit well with me. It is almost as though she has completely occupied his thoughts.”Without pausing, he continued writing.“Of all the facades at your disposal, you chose one so transparent.”His words made my eyes narrow instantly.“And what exactly are you implying, my dear?” I asked coldly.“You hold no genuine concern for him,” Mason replied as though he were merely stating an obvious fact.My fists clenched at once.“At the very least, I pretend to care,” I shot back sharply. “Unlike you, who avoids your children entirely, as though they are not yours.”The tip of his pen froze in the m

    My eyes lingered on his broad back as he disappeared through the door. The moment he was gone, I released a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding. Living with the family was difficult enough, but wandering through the vast Sparkling Estate only made me feel smaller. The mansion was enormous for a household of four, though with the number of servants and the Mason family’s wealth, such luxury was hardly surprising.As I slowly explored the hall, my attention settled on a staircase I had not yet climbed. A strange feeling of curiosity stirred within me, forcing my steps to a halt. Sara had carefully guided me through almost every corner of the residence, yet she had deliberately avoided this staircase.I turned toward her.“What’s on the upper floor?”The color drained slightly from Sara’s face as her eyes followed my gaze. She hesitated before speaking softly.“Um… I thought someone would have told you already, Luna. The third floor is off-limits to everyone except the family.”My eye
