INARA'S POV

The next day felt heavier than the ones before. I moved through pack duties like I was walking through thick fog — smiling when I needed to, nodding at the right moments, but my mind kept replaying Elder Thorne’s ugly words on loop. Fraud.

Temporary bandage. Walk away quietly. Every time I thought about it, my stomach twisted tighter.

Grayson noticed almost immediately.

During breakfast, when his hand brushed mine reaching for the same piece of bread, I pulled back a little too fa

  • The Cursed Alpha's Substitute Luna    Shh, my love

    INARA'S POVGrayson’s words hung in the quiet space between us, his plea for me to be fine wrapping around my heart like a soft blanket. The way he looked at me - those silver eyes filled with so much love and vulnerability - made my own worries feel smaller. I couldn’t bear to see him carrying any more weight tonight. So I decided, in that moment, to simply love up on him. To pour every bit of affection I had into making him feel safe, cherished, and completely at peace.I shifted slightly, guiding him back down so his head rested comfortably against my chest again. My fingers returned to his hair, stroking through the dark strands with slow, rhythmic motions that I knew he loved. “Shh, my love,” I whispered, my voice low and soothing. “Just rest now. I’ve got you. I’m right here, and I’m not going anywhere.”He made a small, contented sound against me, his arm tightening around my waist as he nuzzled closer. I could feel the tension in his body beginning to melt away under my tou

  • The Cursed Alpha's Substitute Luna    Please be fine

    INARA'S POVThe events of the day had settled heavily on both of us, but especially on Grayson. His head still rested against my chest, his breathing slow and deep as he allowed himself this rare moment of complete vulnerability. I continued running my fingers through his dark hair in slow, soothing strokes, feeling the tension gradually ease from his shoulders. Every now and then I pressed a soft kiss to the top of his head, murmuring quiet words of comfort that seemed to anchor him. The bond between us hummed with a gentle, steady warmth, his exhaustion slowly giving way to the safety of my embrace.After a while, I shifted slightly, tilting his chin up so I could meet his eyes. “You need to feel better, my love,” I said softly, my thumb brushing his cheek. “Come take a shower with me. The warm water will help. Please? I want you to feel relief.”He made a low sound of protest, tightening his arms around me as if the idea of moving even an inch was too much. “Don’t want to leave y

  • The Cursed Alpha's Substitute Luna    Are you okay?

    INARA'S POVThe afternoon light had already begun to soften by the time I returned to our chambers, the garden conversation with Elara still lingering warmly in my mind. The knowledge of Liora’s lie sat quietly in my chest - heavy, but no longer crushing. I had evidence now. Proof that Grayson had never betrayed me.Yet the weight of how to tell him, and what it would mean for the pack, still pressed against my thoughts as I moved around the room, straightening a few things and pouring a glass of water I never quite finished.The bond shifted suddenly, pulling my attention toward the door. I felt him before I heard him — that familiar, steady presence, but strained and frayed at the edges.My heart tightened. When the door finally opened, Grayson stepped inside looking like the weight of the entire pack had been stacked on his shoulders.His dark hair was slightly messy, as if he had run his hands through it too many times. The usual sharpness in his silver eyes was dulled by exhausti

  • The Cursed Alpha's Substitute Luna    Don't let anyone dim that

    INARA'S POVThe garden behind the pack house was one of my favorite places to escape to when my thoughts felt too heavy. Tall trees with silver leaves rustled gently in the breeze, their branches heavy with clusters of pale flowers that released a soft, sweet fragrance into the air. I walked slowly along the winding stone path, my fingers brushing the soft petals of a blooming rose bush as I tried to process everything I had overheard from Liora’s call.The words kept replaying in my mind, calculating, and damning. “This baby isn’t his, and it never will be. It’s for whoever I say it is.” She had admitted it so casually, like it was just another move in her game for power and money. The relief that washed over me was almost dizzying. Grayson had been telling the truth all along. He hadn’t touched her that night. He hadn’t lied to me. The sincerity in his voice when he reassured me, the way his eyes had held mine without a single flicker of doubt, it all made sense now. My mate was

  • The Cursed Alpha's Substitute Luna    Secrets in Hallways

    INARA'S POVSunlight spilled through the half-drawn curtains like liquid gold, warming the wooden floors of our chambers and casting a soft glow over the furs on our bed. I woke slowly, cocooned in Grayson’s arms, his steady breath tickling the back of my neck. The events of yesterday Liora’s cruel words, the public humiliation, the tears I had shed in his embrace felt distant now, like a bad dream fading at the edge of consciousness. His body was a solid, comforting wall behind me, one arm draped possessively over my waist, fingers splayed across my stomach as if even in sleep he needed to keep me close.I turned carefully in his arms, not wanting to wake him yet, and studied his face. In the morning light, he looked younger, the usual Alpha tension smoothed away. His dark lashes rested against his cheeks, his lips slightly parted, and that faint scar through his eyebrow caught the light. My heart swelled with so much love it almost hurt. This was the man who had carried me to t

  • The Cursed Alpha's Substitute Luna    Come on baby

    INARA'S POVThe pleasure still rippled through me in gentle aftershocks as Grayson slowly rose up from between my thighs. His lips were shiny with my arousal, his silver eyes dark with love and desire as he crawled up my body. I reached for him immediately, my hands sliding up his chest to his shoulders, pulling him down to me. He came willingly, settling his weight gently over me as his mouth found mine in a deep, heated kiss.He tasted like me sweet and intimate and the knowledge made me moan softly into his mouth. He swallowed the sound eagerly, tilting his head to deepen the kiss, his tongue dancing with mine in a slow, sensual rhythm that made my toes curl. One of his hands moved to my breast, squeezing gently, his thumb brushing over my sensitive nipple until it hardened under his touch. I arched into him with a needy whimper, the dual sensation of his mouth and his hand making heat pool low in my belly again.“Grayson…” I gasped against his lips when we parted for air, but h

    INARA'S POV I tossed and turned in the big, unfamiliar bed until the sheets felt like they were strangling me.
