All Chapters of Second Chance Luna Mated to Ex's Uncle: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

(Third-person's POV)The Chase Pack House glittered with lights as Silvercrest City's elite gathered for Victoria Chase's thirtieth birthday celebration. Crystal chandeliers cast a warm glow over the grand ballroom where werewolves from prominent packs mingled, their expensive clothing and jewelry signaling their status.Victoria, the adopted daughter of Harrison and Melanie Chase, stood at the center of attention. Her emerald green dress hugged her curves perfectly, and her practiced smile never wavered as she greeted each guest."She's certainly blossomed into a fine she-wolf," remarked an older Alpha to his mate. "Harrison and Melanie raised her well, considering she's not blood."His mate nodded. "I hear they're hoping to find her a suitable mate tonight. Thirty is getting rather late for an unmated she-wolf of her standing."Across the room, another group of younger wolves gossiped behind crystal glasses of moonlight wine."Can you believe Victoria's still unmated while Ambe

(Third-person's POV)Melissa James sat rigidly on the edge of a plush armchair in the Chase Pack House lobby. Though she'd come as Victoria's friend for the birthday celebration, the weight of dozens of hostile stares made her shoulders hunch inward.The emerald earring incident had transformed the atmosphere from celebratory to venomous. Pack members whispered behind their hands, their eyes darting between Melissa and the staircase where Melanie Chase had disappeared moments ago.Melissa's damp hair clung to her neck, her borrowed clothes from Victoria hanging loosely on her petite frame. The pool water had washed away her makeup, revealing her naturally pale complexion and the faint freckles she usually concealed."They're all staring at me," she whispered to Victoria, who stood protectively beside her chair.Victoria's lips tightened. "Ignore them. They're just bored and looking for drama."Despite Victoria's reassurance, Melissa felt increasingly uncomfortable. She knew Melan

(Amber's POV)Felix drove smoothly through the rain-slicked streets of Silvercrest City, occasionally glancing at me in the rearview mirror. The silence between us was comfortable, not awkward."Miss Chase, may I ask why you're not living at the Chase Pack house?" Felix finally asked, his tone curious but respectful.I looked up, surprised by the question. "I moved out two months after returning to Silvercrest from overseas.""That's unusual for a pack member, especially the Alpha's daughter," he commented."My grandmother left me some real estate," I explained, watching raindrops race down the window. "I chose this riverside condo. Far enough from the pack house to breathe freely."Felix nodded, understanding in his eyes. "Independence is valuable.""Especially when your family doesn't understand you," I said softly, more to myself than to him.As we pulled up to my building, Felix quickly exited the car and opened my door with a formal bow that seemed second nature to him. As

(Melissa's POV)The air in Dominic's office felt like ice against my skin. His words hung between us, heavy and inescapable."You will publicly apologize to Amber Chase," he repeated, his voice leaving no room for negotiation. "You will take full responsibility for the affair and the subsequent fallout."I couldn't breathe. My fingers dug deeper into Ethan's arm, desperate for support as Dominic continued."At Ryan Quinn's birthday celebration, you will stand before the entire supernatural community and admit your role as the third party." His blue eyes pierced through me like silver daggers. "You will compensate Amber financially for the damage to her reputation."My legs trembled beneath me. Ryan's birthday was the social event of the season – everyone who mattered in Silvercrest would be there. If I admitted to being the "third party," I'd never be able to hold my head up in wolf society again."And if we refuse?" Ethan's voice was tight beside me.Dominic's expression remain

(Amber's POV)My phone buzzed for the fifth time in an hour. I glanced at the screen and sighed. Mother again.I silenced the call and tossed my phone onto the couch. Let them stew in their anger. The Blackwood Pack's press conference announcing my broken engagement to Ethan had clearly sent my family into a tailspin.Good. Let them feel a fraction of the humiliation I'd endured.My phone lit up again. This time it was Henry. Reluctantly, I answered."What?" I snapped."You need to come to the pack house," Henry's voice was tight with tension. "Mother's been hospitalized."I rolled my eyes. "What happened? Did she break a nail?""This isn't a joke, Amber. She collapsed after hearing about the press conference. The doctors say it's stress-induced."A twinge of guilt tried to surface, but I pushed it down. "And that's my problem because...?""Because you're her daughter!" Henry's voice rose. "And Father is demanding you come immediately."I considered hanging up, but a better
