Raine POV The world had already decided my place. At the bottom.Whispers followed me like shadows as I walked down the crowded school hallway of bloodmoon academy, the weight of stares burning into my back. I knew what they were saying. I'd heard it all before."That’s her… the wolfless girl.""She shouldn’t even be in this school.""What kind of werewolf doesn’t have a wolf?"Each word was a dagger, sharpened by years of disappointment—not just from my classmates, but from the entire pack.I wasn’t just an outcast. I was an embarrassment.I kept walking, chin up, even though my chest tightened with the familiar ache of being unwanted. It wasn’t just school— I felt it at home, too.Once, I had been someone’s world.My father had never looked at me like I was broken. He used to tuck me into his arms, brushing his calloused fingers over my hair, whispering, “It’ll come, little wolf. Some take longer.”But then he died, and with him, so did the last person who ever believed in me.My m

Raine POV The forest had always been my refuge. But I couldn’t stay there forever.The walk home was supposed to clear my mind.I kept my head down, my fingers still curled into fists from my encounter with Ronan. The scent of pine and damp earth faded as I stepped out of the forest and onto the dirt road leading into town. The Bloodmoon Pack's territory stretched around me, the houses growing closer together. I told myself I was fine. That Ronan’s words didn’t sting.But the ache in my chest said otherwise.The air here was different—thicker, suffocating. And then, just as I expected, it soured further.The first warning came in the form of laughter. Sharp. Mocking.cruel, and too familiar.I recognized the voices before I even turned around."Well, well," Ana Vaughn drawled, crossing her arms. The streetlight cast a golden glow over her sleek blonde waves, her sharp blue eyes glittering with amusement. "Look what crawled out of the woods."Ana Vaughn—daughter of the current Beta. Th

Ronan POV It was faint—barely there beneath the smoke of the bonfire and the lingering perfume of the girls pressing too close—but I still smelled her.Raine.I leaned back against the wooden bench, gripping the beer bottle in my hand. I hadn’t taken a sip.Across from me, Ava sat curled up beside one of the guys, her laughter high-pitched and sweet.I should’ve been paying attention.I should’ve been anywhere but in my own damn head."You good, man?"Kai's voice cut through the noise, and I blinked, realizing he was watching me."Yeah." I rolled my shoulders, trying to shake it off. "Why wouldn’t I be?"Jax smirked, his sharp grey eyes gleaming under the firelight. "I don’t know. You’ve been staring into space like some lovesick idiot."Ava perked up at that. "Lovesick? Please." She leaned in, twirling a strand of hair around her finger. "Ronan doesn’t do love.""Yeah," Jax said, grinning. "He barely has feelings."Laughter rippled around the group.I forced a smirk. "You’re both fu

Ronan POVI watched her walk away while my wolf protest against it.Watched her disappear into the crowd with Lena still gripping her wrist.And I did nothing.Again.I clenched my jaw, forcing my hands into my pockets to keep from reaching out, from stopping her.Because what would I even say?That I didn’t mean to shove her yesterday? That I didn’t want to hurt her? That every time she flinched away from me,it made my wolf whine pathetically and something inside my chest twisted so painfully it made me sick?No.That wasn’t who I was allowed to be.Not with her.Not with anyone."She got you there, man."Zane’s voice cut through the silence, amused as always.Jaxon just crossed his arms, shaking his head. "She’s going to snap one of these days, and you’ll deserve whatever she does to you."I exhaled slowly, forcing my expression into something unreadable.Something cold."What makes you think I give a damn?" I muttered, turning away.But as I walked, I felt Kai’s stare on my back.Q

Ava POVI could still feel the heat of everyone's stares burning into me.My fingers curled into fists under the table, nails pressing into my palms so hard they threatened to draw blood. But nothing—nothing—could compare to the fire licking up my spine, the sheer mortification sitting heavy in my chest.That bitch.That useless, pathetic little nobody just humiliated me in front of everyone.A low, irritated growl rumbled in the back of my mind, my wolf pacing restlessly beneath my skin. Weak, she snarled, a sharp edge to her voice. You let her challenge you. You let her win.I clenched my jaw, trying to keep my expression neutral. I refused to let Raine have this moment. If she thought she could walk away from this unscathed—if she thought this was over—she was wrong.So very wrong.The cafeteria was quieter now, still thick with tension from what had just happened. A few students whispered, heads turning toward me, toward Ronan. I caught sight of Jaxon smirking behind his drink, Za
