Emma's pov.“Emma calix, you are not fit to be my Luna,” Damien's voice echoed through the clearing, it was unyielding. His words cut me deeper than any claw ever could.I stood frozen, my chest tight and my heart pounding as the pack members gathered whispering among themselves.My mate, the man the moon Goddess had chosen for me, was rejecting me in front of everyone.“Damien” My voice cracked as I tried to fight the tears welling up. “Why are you hurting me? What have I done to deserve this?”.He didn't even look at me. His cold gaze remained fixed on the crowd. “It's not about what you've done but the truth is you're too weak, Emma. You can't lead a pack. And you know this would drag me down”.His words hit me like a physical blow. I stumbled back., feeling the weight of their judgemental stares. I wanted to scream to beg him to reconsider, but I refused to give him the satisfaction of seeing me heartbroken.“I promise you, Damien, you'll regret this,” I whispered, my voice trembl

For what?”“For your life,” he said, his tone serious.I opened my mouth to argue but stopped. He wasn’t wrong.“Who are you?” I asked, my voice softer this time.He hesitated for a moment before answering. “Someone who sees potential in you.”His answer only left me with more questions. “That’s not an answer and what potential are you talking about?.”“It’s the only one answer you’ll get; with time, you'll learn,” he said, his expression unreadable.I felt a pull toward him, looking confused with an inexplicable connection that I couldn’t ignore.“Thank you for your concern; I appreciate your care,” I said reluctantly, knowing I owed him more than I could ever repay.He nodded, his e

Damien 's pov.“Damien , you’ve been brooding all day. What’s wrong?” Lucky, my Beta, asked, his voice laced with concern.I sighed, staring at the mountain range in the distance. “I don't know what came over me, I rejected her, Lucky. I pushed Emma away, thinking it was for the best. And now…” I paused, the words catching in my throat.“What happened now, sir?” He curiously asked.“I heard Emma is pregnant,” I said, with much tension slotting through my mind.Lucky frowned. “You mean the rumors are true? She’s pregnant?”“It's hard to believe but I don’t think so,” I admitted, running a hand through my hair. “But what if she is? What if I made the biggest mistake of my life?”"It's true Sir, Emma is pregnant," Lucky said, his voice low but firm as we walked through the forest near the packhouse.I stopped mid-step, my heart thudding painfully against my ribs. The words struck like a blow, and I couldn’t hide the crack in my voice as I asked, "Lucky... Are you sure?"Lucky nodded. "Th
