Chapter 181 — The Truth I FearedZarina’s POVI ran.Up the stairs, past the hallway, into our bedroom—the one place that was supposed to be mine. Ours.My hands trembled as I slammed the door shut behind me and locked it. I didn’t care if it was childish. I didn’t care if it made me look weak. I just couldn’t look at him right now.I pressed my back against the door, my chest rising and falling too fast. My throat ached, and my eyes burned. The tears had been waiting, heavy behind my lids, and now they poured freely.I sank to the floor, holding my knees, trying not to make a sound—but I couldn’t stop the sob that broke through my lips.I wasn’t supposed to feel this way.I had fought so hard to be strong. To be Luna. To be mother. To be wife. And now… now everything felt like it was slipping out of my hands.Why?Why did she have to come back?Why did she look like me?And why—why did he look at her like he had once looked at me?“Asher…” I whispered his name without even realizing

Chapter 183 – I Won’t Be ReplacedZarina’s POVI didn’t sleep all night.I sat alone in the nursery, with only the soft sounds of my babies breathing to keep me company. The moonlight came in through the window, lighting the room just enough for me to see their peaceful faces.I kept staring at them, brushing my fingers gently over their tiny hands and cheeks.I should have felt at peace. But I didn’t.My chest was heavy.Not with sadness—but with fear, confusion, and something I hadn’t felt in a long time.Anger.My mind kept going back to her. Zaria.The woman with my face. The woman with a history I never knew existed. The woman who everyone looked at like she was born for the throne I had fought so hard to sit on.She said she was Asher’s old flame. But I knew there was more to it. Something deeper.Something Asher wasn’t telling me.And I hated how that made me feel—like a second choice. Like I was never really chosen, just… accepted.Loved because I looked like someone else.I b

Chapter 185 – A Storm Before the CouncilZarina’s POVThe sun was warm, the sky clear, and the pack grounds were filled with life. Wolves laughed, children played, and warriors trained. Everything looked normal.But my heart wasn’t at peace.I had barely slept. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Zaria’s face. I heard her voice. The way she looked at me. The way she spoke about Asher. The way she touched our walls, like she belonged.And most of all, the way Asher looked so helpless when I cried.He said he loved me. He said he chose me.But even he couldn’t hide how shaken he was by Zaria’s return.I stood near the training field, watching the warriors spar, trying to distract myself. But my mind kept drifting back to her.Then I heard a voice behind me. Loud. Confident.Too familiar.“Do you truly believe you’re Luna because you were meant to be?” she asked.I turned slowly.Zaria stood just a few feet away, wearing a long maroon cloak, her hands folded neatly in front of her. She ha

Chapter 187 — The Confession in the DarkAsher’s POVThe moon was high above the trees, casting silver shadows across the land. The entire packhouse had gone quiet for the night, but sleep refused to visit me.I sat alone in the study, the fire crackling in front of me, its warmth not enough to melt the cold sitting in my chest.Zarina wouldn’t speak to me.Not after what happened.Not after what she heard.She had locked the bedroom door. I didn’t try to force it open. She had every right to protect herself. But each second I stayed away felt like I was drowning. I had lost her trust. And now… I didn’t even know if I’d get it back.I buried my face in my hands, letting out a slow, broken breath.Then I heard the door creak open behind me.“Thought I might find you here.”I looked up. Damon.He shut the door behind him and crossed the room, dropping into the chair across from me. He looked tired, but not surprised. As if he’d known this was coming for a long time.“You look like hell,

Chapter 189— “The One Thing Keeping Me”Zarina’s POVThe moon was high in the sky when I made the decision.I sat on the edge of the bed, my palms cold and my chest heavy. My heart wasn’t just hurting—it felt like it had cracked into too many pieces to count. No matter how many times I told myself I was stronger than this, that I could endure anything—I couldn’t anymore.Zaria’s presence in this house was like a shadow that refused to leave. She was everywhere. Her scent lingered in the hallway. Her voice echoed in my thoughts. Her face—my face—was in every reflective surface I passed. And Asher… no matter how much he tried, his eyes gave him away.He was torn.And I was tired.I opened the drawer slowly and reached for a folded piece of paper I had written earlier. I had written it three times. The first one, I tore apart. The second, I cried all over it. This one… this one, I kept simple.“I loved you. But I can’t live in the shadow of another woman’s ghost. I deserve to be chosen f
