The moon goddess chose wrong: twice CHAPTER 75: THE FESTIVAL II
Lily (Evadne)The night before the festival. Dexter’s voice still echoed in my skull like a curse I couldn’t exorcise. Drop this in Enzo’s drink or meal. Do it quietly. Do it perfectly. The compulsion had been absolutely smooth, irresistible, a chain wrapped around my will. I had cried silently the entire time, tears streaming down my face, mouth opening in soundless screams that never reached the air, I couldn't stop or think. My body moved without my permission, a puppet dancing on invisible strings while my mind screamed in horror.I moved like a ghost through Silverfang’s territory, nodding politely at the night patrol guard near the pack house. He barely glanced at me. Why would he? I was the Beta’s chosen mate now, and I was trusted and respected. My muddy shoes and clothes went unnoticed in the dark. He simply dipped his head and continued his rounds, assuming I was looking for Max after a restless night.I hated how easy it was and I wished someone would stop me.I passed th
The moon goddess chose wrong: twice CHAPTER 74: THE FESTIVAL
Lily (Evadne)Confusion clung to me like a second skin as I sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the filthy shoes in my hands. Mud caked the soles, leaves, and twigs stuck between the laces. My body ached as if I had run a marathon, my muscles were burning and my head was pounding. I felt exhausted down to my bones, the kind of bone-deep weariness that no amount of sleep could fix.“What the hell happened last night?” I whispered to the empty room. Ember, my wolf, stirred uneasily inside me, I couldn’t let Max see this. Not like this.I moved quickly, heart racing. I scrubbed the shoes in the sink with soap and a brush until my fingers turned red, scraping away as much mud as I could.I stripped out the dirty leggings and shirt, balling them up and shoving them deep into the bottom of the laundry basket under a pile of clean towels the Evidence was hidden for now.I threw Fresh clothes on soft gray leggings and one of Max’s oversized black shirts. I was just pulling it over my head
The moon goddess chose wrong: twice CHAPTER 73: HYPNOTIZED
LILY- EVADNEThe first thing I noticed was the warmth.Max’s arm was heavy across my waist, his breath steady and deep against the back of my neck. The cabin smelled like us, and I didn't want this to end, I couldn't really remember my life before Silver Fang, but I was sure it wasn't better than this.Max was the sweetest man and my favorite person in the world. He is kind and attentive. Ember, my wolf was obsessed with him. curled contentedly inside me, no longer the frantic, feral thing that used to claw at my ribs during full moons. She was calm. Happy. Home.I smiled into the pillow, eyes still closed, letting myself drift in that soft space between sleep and waking. It had been more than a week since Max had chosen me. Every night he held me like I was something precious he’d fought the world to keep. Every morning he kissed the top of my head and whispered, “You’re mine, Eva. And I’m yours.” We had spent the days training, running the borders, and making out in his room and f

Chapter 72 Nina The morning rush at All-Night Diner was a beautiful kind of chaos I had come to crave. Sunlight came in through the windows, catching on the edges of the counter and turning the steam from fresh coffee into a golden haze. I moved between tables with the easy rhythm I’d learned in the three weeks since Hank had dropped me off on the outskirts of Riverton. My apron tied tight around my waist, order pad in one hand, coffee pot in the other it felt normal, human, and safe. “Table six wants their eggs lightly scrambled, extra bacon,” Gia called from the pass-through window, her warm brown eyes sparkling with mischief as she slid two plates toward me. “And don’t forget to smile, hon. The truckers tip better when you look like you actually like them.” I snorted, grabbing the plates. “They tip better when I don’t accidentally drain their life force if they pinch my ass again.” Gia’s laugh was rich and full, cutting through the clatter of silverware and the low hum of c
The moon goddess chose wrong: twice CHAPTER 71: REVENGE PLOT
Jessica The sterile hum of the medical wing in Crestmoon’s pack house drilled into my skull like silver needles. I lay propped against silk pillows in the private recovery suite reserved for the Luna, my suite surrounded by monitors that beeped so loudly. My body felt hollowed out, a beautiful shell drained of its fire. My skin was pale and stretched, and every inch of my body hurt even my bones. The mirrors had been covered on my orders, I couldn’t stand the sight of what that bitch had left behind. What she did to me, I looked like Grandma. Nina. The name tasted like venom on my tongue. That pathetic little stray who had slithered back into Crestmoon like a rat in the walls. She had dared to flash Enzo’s mate mark at me, as if that fresh bite on her neck erased everything. As if spreading her legs for my destined Alpha could wipe away the years I had spent carving my place at Dexter’s side. I closed my eyes, and the memory surged again hot, humiliating, intoxicating in
The moon goddess chose wrong: twice CHAPTER 70: NEW MATE
MaxThe evening light filtered through the trees in soft gold shafts, turning the small clearing behind my cabin into something out of a dream. One week. Seven days that had rewired my entire world, and every single one of them had been spent with her, Eva, short for Evadne. My chosen mate still couldn't remember her name but I was sure it was something similar to Eva.I stood at the edge of the training circle we had claimed as ours just outside my cabin, my arms crossed over my chest, watching her move. She was in partial shift claws extended, eyes glowing that beautiful ember-red, fur rippling along her forearms like living flame. No more thrashing. No more panicked howls that used to tear at my soul. Ember, her wolf, had finally learned to merge. Eva's hair was braided back, strands escaping to stick to her sweat-damp neck, and the simple tank top and leggings she wore clung to her like a second skin. She looked strong. Alive and Mine.“Again,” I said, voice low and steady, the

EnzoThe pack house had gone quiet after midnight, the kind of quiet that presses against your eardrums and makes every creak feel like a warning. I hadn’t slept I couldn't not with all that was bothering me.Not with Nina lying in the guest suite two doors down, breathing the same air as me but fe

Enzo Everything about her was a quiet assault on my control.The way her dark lashes fanned against pale cheeks still bruised from battle. The faint rise and fall of her chest beneath the thin hospital gown, the stubborn set of her jaw even in sleep, like she was already fighting me in her dreams.

NinaThe next dayI stumble out of the pack house, my legs carrying me on autopilot through the winding paths of the compound. The air is crisp, laced with pine and the distant howl of patrols, but it does nothing to clear the fog in my head. Dexter’s words echo like a curse: medical records, Luna,
