KATARINA

A knock on the front door jolted me awake, as if a hand had yanked me from deep water. At first, I thought I was hallucinating, my body heavy and my mind foggy from finally falling asleep after staring at the ceiling all night.

But then the knocking began again, louder this time. My eyes opened to find the room still dark, and I turned to the clock on the bedside table, which read 4:35 a.m. My eyebrow furrowed. Who might be knocking at this hour? Greyson wouldn't knock. He had his own

  • The Loathed Luna: A Sister's Substitute    CHAPTER 1: CAPTAIN WOLF

    RAVENThe late August sun poured through the window of my new mini-suite, and I stood in the center, laughing to myself with my arms spread wide, as if I could take off at any moment and soar into the skies. I looked like a damn fool doing it, too. But I couldn't help but feel my heart in the clouds. Today was move-in day, my first day of freedom, and, most importantly, a new beginning with endless possibilities.This place would be my home for the next five years, thanks to Teagan’s mom, who gave me the shot at attending one of the best universities. I intended to make her proud.But that wasn't the sole reason for my ridiculous grin. My heart raced for another, equally thrilling reason; I was about to meet my first and only crush. “Raven, hurry up!” Teagan called from the bathroom, where she was applying another layer of mascara. My roommate was a force of nature, already treating Stanford like her personal kingdom. I suppose it was fitting, given that she was not a freshman like m

    KATARINA I awoke slowly, with warmth wrapping around me, making me want to stay exactly where I was, and for a brief moment, I did not move. I just lay there, tucked up against something solid and safe.My senses returned in pieces, the softness of the sheets, the quiet stillness of the room, and the slow rise and fall beneath my cheek—Greyson.My eyes flickered open to find his gaze already on my face, and when my eyes met his, something in his expression softened even further. My lips formed a small smile. “Good morning," I murmured, my voice still heavy with sleep.“Good morning," he replied softly, leaning down as he gave me a gentle kiss that was nothing like the intensity of last night, just something soft and comforting. I smiled a little more against his lips before pulling back and admitting. “I don't remember getting into bed."A low chuckle escaped him. “That would be because you didn't," he said, and I looked up at him, puzzled. “When I returned from the bathroom, I foun

    KATARINA Music blared from the walls, and the entire hall was on its feet, dancing as the coronation ceremony swept us into a whirlwind of celebrations that left me lightheaded from the wine and excitement of it all.By the time the clock struck midnight, the party was still going strong, with no one looking like they were about to go to bed. But Greyson's hand on my waist became more insistent, his eyes darkening with each beat, mirroring mine. I wanted my man, and as if he read my mind, his hand found mine just as the song we were dancing to came to an end and another one began.Everyone parted for us as we made our way to the door, all smiles, and my alpha never let go of my hand. I must say that the atmosphere throughout the ceremony was not what I had anticipated.I expected everyone to react as the elders had when I told them about Ines. But there had been nothing of the kind. Those who weren't pleased with me being their Luna must have been good at concealing their emotions, b

    CYRA Alexander's gaze lifted suddenly and landed right where I lay. And my breath caught as his gaze met mine. I froze, every instinct telling me that this was the wrong move. But I was on the rooftop. What was he doing looking upwards?My heart pounded as I held his gaze for an extra second, long enough for recognition to flash between us, long enough for me to fully realize how this must have looked.I forced myself to move, stepping back from the edge and away from the window, where I had been lying on my stomach like a desperate fool. From my perch atop the hall, I had a clear view of the moment my world was replaced.Below, the ceremony continued, and the crowd gathered to witness what should have been mine. Greyson stood where he belonged: strong, unwavering, Alpha.Then there was her—that Omega. But while that irritated me, it did not surprise me. What shocked me was the second filth standing beside his so-called Luna. Ines, the fucking servant.She stood in my place, as if sh

  • The Loathed Luna: A Sister's Substitute    CHAPTER 45: ONE TRUE LOVE

    GREYSON My body went rigid as soon as the hall doors opened, and I recognized who it was without looking. But when I did... my breath stopped. And in that moment, it wasn't Katarina walking toward me.It was Cyra, and I blinked hard, but she didn't vanish. She walked toward me through the falling petals, exactly as I had imagined a hundred times before. And my chest clenched so hard I nearly gasped.I tried to concentrate—to see what was right in front of me, not the illusion. But my mind would not let me. All I saw was her. All I could think about was how she should have been walking toward me—how it was always meant to be her, even when things were uncertain.Even on the day I said my vows to Katarina, the thought of her finally standing here with me had been what kept me sane. It reminded me that Katarina was nothing more than a pretense. And that even when this day came, and I had to stand with her, it would be just for show—and that when it was over, I'd be standing here with my

  • The Loathed Luna: A Sister's Substitute    CHAPTER 44: CHANGING HISTORY

    KATARINAThe elders led me down the quiet corridors of the pack house until we came to a big wooden door at the end of the hall. One of them pushed it open, and warm air greeted us, carrying the aroma of herbs and something sweet and earthy. “This is where the cleansing will take place," one of the elders explained as I stepped inside. The room was dimly lit by rows of candles burning on the stone walls. Their flames flickered softly while incense from small bronze bowls scattered around the room slowly curled into the air, emitting a soothing scent of wildflowers.In the center of the room stood a large stone bath, and steam rose gently from the water inside while flower petals floated on the surface. “Please remove your dress and step into the bath, Luna," the elders said, and I complied, neatly folding the fabric on a nearby bench before carefully entering the water.It was just warm enough to relax my muscles, and I sank slowly until the water reached my shoulders. The elders mo
