My mate, Kane Blackwood, was the most feared Alpha in the Northlands. For three years, he treated me like something that belonged to him. He would drag me into his arms on the stone steps after moon rituals, pin me against the wall in Blackthorn Keep’s long corridors, and bite the mark on the back of my neck beside the patrol trails in the border woods, as if he needed everyone to remember exactly whose Luna I was. I used to think that was his way of loving me. Rough. Possessive. Lacking tenderness. But love, all the same. Until one night, I stopped outside the council hall and heard an elder say in a furious voice, “Those charcoal sketches on the black market were released by your people, weren’t they? Every one of them is of you and Elena in bed. She has become a joke across the pack. Do you even understand what you’ve done?” There was a brief silence. Then Kane said, coldly, “She is the Luna the council chose for me. She is not the woman I wanted.” I stood frozen outside the door. All those years, I thought his roughness meant he loved me too fiercely to be gentle. But it was never love. It was humiliation. Punishment for taking the place of the woman he actually wanted. I lowered my eyes to the moonstone bracelet on my wrist, the one he had clasped there the day our mating contract was sealed. If that was all I had ever been to him, then I would leave.

The Day I Stopped Being His Luna Chapter 8
Three years later, word of Kane Blackwood’s death reached me on a quiet afternoon in early spring.By then I was living farther south than Willowmere, in a riverside town where no one knew me as anyone’s former Luna. I embroidered for a dressmaker three streets over, kept herbs in chipped pots along the kitchen sill, and shared the cottage with a half-feral cat who had appointed himself mine.A traveling merchant stopped at my gate that afternoon to ask for water. I brought him a glass from the kitchen and listened only halfway as he talked about washed-out roads, bad weather in the mountain pass, and a battle in the north that had delayed freight for weeks.Then he said, almost casually, “The Northlands lost their Alpha in it.”Something in my hand loosened.“Kane Blackwood?” I asked before I could stop myself.The merchant nodded. “Stayed behind so his soldiers could retreat. Took more arrows than anyone thought a wolf could survive.”The glass slipped from my fingers and shattered a

He found me in Willowmere a week later when I was sitting on the back steps.I felt him before I saw him.The old instinct that survives even when love does not. Something in me tightened, and when I looked up, Kane was standing beyond the low fence with three years of damage written plainly across his face.He looked thinner. Harder in some places, wrecked in others. There was a scar along his jaw I did not recognize and exhaustion in his eyes that no amount of sleep would have fixed.Then he said, “I know what Selena did.”I set the needle down carefully. “So?”His face changed, almost as if he had expected the name alone to matter. “I know about the Pens. I know she paid them. I know she framed you at the festival. I know all of it now.”“That’s late, isn’t it?”He came to the gate but did not open it. “Elena—”“No.” I rose and set the embroidery hoop aside. “If you came here to tell me you finally understand what happened, save yourself the effort. Julian sent someone weeks ago. I

The truth found him before Elena did.Julian’s people had already been asking questions in the abandoned mining district when one of the handlers at the Omega Pens decided silence was no longer worth dying for. Kane drove out there himself.The place looked even worse in daylight: rusted fencing, cracked concrete, security lights buzzing weakly above old industrial ruins. He found three men in a side office that smelled of bleach, smoke, and wolfsilver.They did not confess cleanly. Kane had to drag the truth out of them in pieces, and every piece cut deeper than the last. Selena’s people had paid for Elena’s transfer. The wolfsilver collar had stayed on her throat all night. She had been told the Alpha’s protection no longer covered her, and the men in that place had heard exactly what they wanted to hear: she was no longer a Luna anyone needed to fear, only a collared Omega no one would come for.Kane killed the first man before the second finished speaking.He did not remember drawi

His mother did not let him hide inside that thought for long.Lady Miriam was in the prayer room when he arrived, moon-beads slipping through her fingers one by one. Kane laid the temple papers on the table between them.“Elena is gone,” he said. “The bond is dissolved.”“I know,” Lady Miriam replied.“I came to tell you because I intend to make things formal with Selena.”When she looked at him, there was nothing maternal in her expression. “Do you know where your wife went after she left the tower?”“No.”“Do you know what state she was in when she boarded that plane?”He did not answer.Lady Miriam let the silence sharpen. “Elena prayed for you every time you crossed the border. She ran your house, cared for your people, and spent three years making excuses for a man who never once earned her loyalty. In return, you humiliated her in public, let those sketches circulate, and drove her so far that she chose ritual torment over one more day as your wife.”Kane’s jaw tightened. “She ma

By the time I walked out of the Moon Temple, dawn had broken cold and white over Silverpine.I wrapped a scarf high around my neck, used the last of my cash to hire a car, and told the driver to take me to Silverpine Regional Airport.The terminal was almost empty. A woman at the check-in desk looke

Kane did not come back that night, or the day after, or the one after that. The keep did not need to tell me where he was. I said nothing. I packed quietly instead.On the fifth evening, my door opened and Selena walked in as though she belonged there. Kane followed a step behind her.“Tonight is t

By the time I got back to Blackthorn Keep, the rain had settled into my bones. I was burning with fever, shaking badly enough that I barely made it into bed.Sometime after midnight, the door opened and Kane came in smelling of cedar, wet leather, and winter air. The moment he touched my forehead, h

Rain had turned Silverpine Town slick and dark by the time I left Blackthorn Keep. I only wanted distance from the council hall and the sound of Kane’s voice saying I was not the woman he wanted. Instead, I turned into the market and found a stall crowded three people deep.A merchant was waving cha
