POV: Camila

The guard could barely look me in the eye. His hands trembled as sweat dripped down his temple, his gaze avoiding mine.

“Mrs. Luna, I swear... I didn't see little Tiago leave.”

The words echoed, and for a moment, the ground seemed to disappear beneath me. I felt my heart racing, a rapid rhythm that hurt my chest. It didn't make sense. Tiago would never leave alone, especially with so many guards scattered around the gates. What if someone had taken advantage of a moment of carelessness?

“Are you sure about that?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady, even though my throat was dry.

“Yes, ma'am... no children passed through the gates today.”

He lowered his head as if the air inside had become too heavy. His breathing was short, the smell of fear permeating the room. I approached slowly, and he took a step back—perhaps it was instinct. Luna's mark still weighed heavily, even if the pack no longer recognized her.

I stepped back before anger took hold. I felt Nyssara stir in

  • The False Luna   The Wound That Won't Heal

    The forest began to thin out when Luara finally slowed down. The wolf's breathing was heavy, irregular, tense in a way she hadn't felt since leaving the pack. The run had drained everything Nyssara had to offer, and yet her body remained alert, the hairs on her back bristling as if the threat were still there, hidden in the shadows.When the road ahead came into view, she began to stagger; her paws failed her in the final charge, and her body slowed from its wild pace to an awkward stumble. Nyssara raised her muzzle in a last effort, but Luara felt the transition calling, not because of the natural ritual, but because of the raw exhaustion that was taking away the wolf's control.The change came abruptly, the crack of bones rearranging themselves into a human body with deeper pain than normal. Luara fell to her knees on the shoulder of the road, air entering her lungs like blades, her skin feverish, her body disoriented. Her hands touched the cold ground, and it took her a few seconds

  • The False Luna   The Alpha Instinct

    POV. Carlos Valentina climbed the stairs with the posture of someone evaluating every brick in the house, as if she could find cracks in my leadership just by looking at the banister. When the bedroom door closed behind her, I finally felt the air return to my lungs.That woman's presence wasn't heavy—it was strategic. She saw more than she said, and I had to watch every word, every gesture, as if I were being examined by an entire council of Alphas. Camila stood in front of me, still in the kitchen, her face lit by the warm glow of the hanging lamp.The smell of food still lingered in the air, mixed with the soft perfume she wore. This combination affected me more than I wanted to admit.“I'm going to stay here at the pack's house,” she said, her voice firm, almost neutral. “Valentina wants to review the festival preparations, and it's better for me to stay close by to help.”The sentence came as a disguised blow. The idea of leaving her there, under the same roof as dozens of curio

  • The False Luna   Her scent had changed

    POV. CarlosI opened the door to the pack's house and the scent hit me first, thick and inviting: garlic browning, thyme warming in olive oil, wine breathing in glasses, a perfume that was not Camila's discreet one — something more assertive, more alive, the kind that announces that someone has entered to be noticed. The omegas greeted me with their usual formality, eyes downcast, steps too hurried for those who don't want to be called out. I crossed the hall with the meeting folder still in my hand and, before appearing in the kitchen doorway, I let my ears confirm what my nose already knew: the laughter was there. Valentina spoke with the insolent joy of someone who doesn't ask permission to exist; Camila responded without hesitation, her voice clear, no request for approval beneath her words.I entered as if unaware of my own effect. Her hair was loose, her skin discreetly glowing, her new dress precisely outlining her body; her waist was marked with a confidence I hadn't seen in h

  • The False Luna   The Taste of Truth

    I closed my eyes and tried to control the trembling. I just wanted to breathe without looking like I was about to collapse. One second. That was enough. When I opened them again, the anger was already there—heavy, burning in my chest.How dare that doctor?How could someone who barely knew my name, who wasn't even part of our pack, think he could question what I felt?The mark might not be visible, but I knew it was there. I felt it when Carlos touched me, when he called me his. When he looked at me that way.I stood up quickly. The chair almost fell over. Rodrigo stood up too, his eyes fixed on mine. For a second, no one breathed. I was ready to scream, but he didn't back down.My cell phone vibrated in my purse, causing me to look away, and Carlos' name lit up on the screen. For a second, I thought I could make the damn medco swallow his words because there was my partner, worried about me, but as soon as I answered, Carlos' voice cut through everything.“Did you touch anything in m

  • The False Luna   Courage Also Shines

    POV: CamilaValentina practically dragged me to the salon, saying that no woman can truly be reborn if she doesn't start with her own mirror. I went in still laughing, thinking she was exaggerating, but as soon as I smelled the place—that mixture of expensive shampoo, hot dryers, and sweet perfume—I understood what she meant. It had been years since I'd set foot in a place like this. The last time was probably before I married Carlos. Since then, the mirror had become an enemy.I sat in the chair and let the hairdresser — an omega with a soft voice and curious eyes — run her fingers through my hair. “How much do you want to cut?” she asked, holding my hair as if evaluating an antique fabric.“Just enough to take the weight of the past off.”She smiled, and I saw Valentina settling into the chair next to me, watching like a child with a new gift. The sound of the scissors began, that almost hypnotic rhythm, and with each strand that fell, it seemed that a part of the old Camila was say

  • The False Luna   The Alpha on the Hunt

    POV: CarlosI left the pack's house without answering anyone. Bernardo tried to stop me on the stairs, looking worried, his body slightly bent, as if he wanted to anticipate an apology that I didn't have time to hear.“Is everything okay, Alpha?”I ignored him. I just kept walking.The night air felt heavier, and I needed to get out of there before anyone noticed how thin my patience was. As soon as I got in the car, I slammed the door and pulled my phone out of my pocket. The screen lit up the dark interior of the vehicle, and notifications flashed in sequence, one after another—all from the same place. Designer stores. Jewelry stores. Imported shoes. Handbags that cost more than a warrior's salary.It wasn't an emergency. It was provocation.I stared at the screen, her name at the top of the messages as if staring back at me. Camila.“She's never done this before.”Mael's voice echoed inside me, deep, like restrained thunder.“Not even when she wanted to get your attention.”I close
