Chapter 1

"As the only daughter of the Alpha King of Northaria, it's only right I choose to ally with the strongest pack—the Pyraxis pack." My voice was calm and unwavering.Dad's gaze was heavy with concern. "Even so... not one of the three pledged Alphas I chose for you stirred your heart?"Dad had loved Mom deeply, but she died the year I was born, ambushed and fatally wounded by our enemies. Since then, he had refused to take another Luna Queen.Still, he couldn't bring himself to entrust all of Northaria to a daughter born an Omega—especially one who hadn't yet awakened her wolf.On his second-in-command's counsel, he had selected three orphaned pups of Alpha blood from our allied packs. They were raised alongside me, groomed to be my future mates—our so-called "pledged Alphas".He even issued a royal decree, declaring that whoever marked me in the future would stand beside me and rule the packs of Northaria as equals.Dad loved me, but he didn't believe an Omega could bear the weight

Chapter 2

Dad had always hoped that one of the three pledged Alphas would bond with me, but he never forced their hand.If any of them ever expressed a desire to walk away, he'd immediately arrange a travel letter and a hefty sum to send them off to Southaria or whichever pack they wished to live in.But in the end, none of them could truly let go of the power, prestige, and protection that came with the Northaria throne.Kayden, the most rebellious of the three, scoffed. "How noble of you to act like we had a choice. We were raised like loyal wolves under Northaria's roof. What right did we ever have to say no?""If you're set on choosing me, I won't stop you," Quin said. He cast me a glance heavy with remorse. "But don't punish the others because of it."That made both Kayden and Mason fall silent.Quin acted like a man walking to the gallows, and the sight of it crushed something in my chest.Before I could speak, footsteps approached from behind, and Silvia appeared. The moment she sa

"The Moonlight Sanctuary?" I asked.The Moonlight Sanctuary was the estate Dad began building for me the day I was born.It wasn't just any property—it was sacred ground meant to house the relics of the Moon Goddess. Every stone laid, every tree planted, and every flower grown was blessed with her divine power.Six months ago, as the sanctuary neared completion, Dad handed the final phase over to Quin. It was supposed to be a gift to me for my coming-of-age ceremony next month.But now… the estate that was meant to be mine had been handed over to Silvia. And she was already living there?My gaze dropped to Quin."She grew up in a poor pack. She's never even seen a real moonstone. I just wanted to give her something she's always dreamed of. Besides, the Moonlight Sanctuary's still legally yours, isn't it?"Don't be so unreasonable. We can just announce the mate ceremony during your coming-of-age ceremony next month, will that do?"Quin said it like he was making some great sacri

Chapter 4

On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, Quin appeared before me with a face like stone—cold and unreadable.Mason and Kayden trailed close behind, both looking irritated, like they'd been dragged here against their will.I frowned and glanced at the butler. I had explicitly told him not to invite them today. However, he only shook his head in confusion, clearly just as blindsided as I was.The ceremony was minutes from starting, and frankly, I didn't have the time or energy to deal with the three of them.Still, the guests had already gathered around them with eager smiles and sycophantic praise."Mr. Quin, you're truly exceptional. I heard you subdued a rogue pack last month with the warriors—no wonder Princess Evelyn insists on choosing you!""Mr. Kayden, I know you have that temper of yours, but you've got a good heart. Princess Evelyn would be lucky to have you.""Mr. Mason, you're not only handsome, but so dependable. If Princess Evelyn chooses you, the whole of Northaria

Chapter 5

The tension in the ballroom was thick enough to choke on. Just as the whispers grew louder, Dad walked in, having just wrapped up his royal duties.With a commanding smile, he stepped forward and declared, "That's right. My daughter is the princess of Northaria. Only the strongest of all men is worthy to stand by her side. "As for those three guys who grew up in the palace—I took them in out of pity. They were never part of any pledged Alphas. So let's stop spreading that nonsense, shall we?"The words hit the room like a clap of thunder, but the doubt didn't leave the guests' faces. A few Alphas of other packs couldn't help but say, "Heath from the Pyraxis pack might be strong, but that wolf of his is pure violence. ""They say even he can't control it. Every mate he's had has died mysteriously. No one's dared to go near him in years.""Sure, he's powerful, and yes, the guy looks like he stepped out of a dream—but that wolf is a monster. Even his own pack keeps their distance.

Chapter 6

The banquet was well underway when, suddenly, dozens of trucks filled with lavish gifts rolled into the hall.Most eye-catching were the countless Moonlight Blossoms crates—rare flowers worth tens of thousands each. They were delivered in waves, flooding the venue until the entire hall shimmered like a silver sea of petals. And at the far end of that blooming ocean, Heath appeared.Tall and imposing, he walked slowly down the red carpet. The moment he entered, the chatter died. His presence alone commanded silence.He wore a faint smile, but no one dared to meet his gaze directly.Dad frowned and whispered, "Did anyone invite him?"Guests exchanged puzzled glances, and their faces were a mix of shock and unease.To everyone here, Heath was dangerous. He was the Alpha of the Pyraxis pack—the most populous and powerful pack in all of Northaria. But more than that, he was the subject of countless rumors.No one wanted to become his Luna, not since all his previous mates had died

Chapter 7

Back when the three of them were first adopted, it was Quin who insisted on keeping the Lawson family name. Dad never forced him otherwise.Now, for the first time in this whole confrontation, Quin finally lifted his head. His gaze was sharp as a blade, piercing straight into mine.Those eyes that once held warmth and affection were now filled with jealousy, as if they wished to tear me apart.Upon seeing how I instinctively stepped away from Quin, Heath tightened his grip on my hand and smiled.Quin's throat seemed to close up as words failed him. After a long silence, he forced the words out. "Are you really going to choose Heath as your mate?""Quin," Dad's cold voice cut in. He was layered with authority as he stepped to my side. His hawk-like eyes bore down on Quin, and it was sharp enough to burn. "Who gave you the audacity to ask that?"Under the weight of Dad's gaze, Quin bowed slightly and fell silent. "I was out of line," he muttered with his voice low and heavy with

Chapter 8

When I was seven, I was abducted by a Rogue leader. Back then, another pup was caught too.Without a second thought, he threw himself in front of me, using his own body as a shield. I could feel the wild, savage energy radiating off him, like a starving beast ready to tear anything apart to keep me safe.Back then, I didn't know who he was. He hid me inside a rusty, abandoned barrel, then went off alone to lure the Rogues away. Later, it was Quin who found me. His arrival pulled me from the edge of danger, and I was overwhelmed with gratitude. But that gratitude slowly twisted into something deeper—something like love.When I looked back now, Quin wasn't really the one who saved me. He just happened to open the lid of that barrel.Heath caught my gaze with a cold smirk, and his voice was low and steady. "You said you'd be grateful to me forever. And what happened? After you healed, you never came looking for me."There was no anger in his tone, just a quiet reproach that gnawed

Chapter 9

Quin's eyes slowly dimmed, and the light faded until there was nothing left. Without a word, he pushed himself up and walked away.He couldn't face the truth anymore—not the harsh reality, and certainly not the weight of the mistakes he'd made.…The next time I saw Quin was the day Heath and I held our mate ceremony.As we rode toward the hall, I caught sight of a few familiar figures. They weren't as polished or proud as they used to be, but the cold, ruthless edge in their gazes hadn't softened one bit.Silvia kneeled with tears streaming down her face. She first clutched Quin's pant leg, but when he didn't even glance at her, she turned to Mason.However, Mason didn't even acknowledge her. Even Kayden—the one who once spoiled her like a queen—looked at her with nothing but disgust and gave her a harsh kick.Silvia's usual pleas for help fell on deaf ears. This time, no one reached out to save her.I met Quin's eyes for a brief moment, but then I looked away coldly.After t
