Chapter 1

Kristy, My mate Luke’s adoptive younger sister had an allergic reaction and was taken to the infirmary two days ago.The healer told us the only herbs that could stabilize her condition had just run out.The last known supply was located outside our territory, near the dangerous borders of the rogue pack’s field.To save her, I risked everything that night—venturing deep into enemy ground.After ten grueling hours of searching, I finally found the herbs…But before I could return, I was surrounded by a pack of rogues.I was too exhausted to fight a full werewolf squad on my own.I resisted as long as I could, but after several rounds of attacks, my body gave out.With the last bit of strength in me, I tried to mind-link Luke—my mate—begging for help.He refused.Once.Twice.Ten times.Fifteen times, he rejected me.And in the end… he didn’t just ignore me—he blocked our link completely.Abandoned.Betrayed.I collapsed into the dirt, bleeding and unconscious, while my mate chose silen

I returned to my den after leaving the infirmary.I didn’t even know why I came back—maybe because I had nowhere else to go.Since I bonded with Luke, I’d poured everything into this pack and our family. Every breath, every effort… it was all for them.And yet now, I’d become the one they rejected.The spare werewolf.How ironic.Just before I opened the door, I heard laughter echoing from inside.It was them—Luke, Kristy, and my twin pups.Their joy cut through me like a blade.I forced a bitter smile, swallowed my pain, and steeled myself.There was nothing left here for me to care about. In 2 days, I would be gone. For good.As soon as I opened the door, the laughter died.I walked straight to my room, ignoring their stares. But Luke blocked my path, his voice coldly expectant:“So… you came back to apologize to Kristy?”“Mom, I’m glad you can finally admit your mistake...”Chris said coldly, his voice devoid of warmth.“Why don’t you ever reflect on yourself until we have to point

I stood there, frozen, wanting to leave. But then I remembered—my personal documents were still locked in my room.I said nothing. Expressionless, numb, I walked past them and headed upstairs.As I passed by, I caught a glimpse of Kristy’s face.She was smiling—a vicious, triumphant smile, like a predator savoring its victory.When I opened the door to my room, I stopped cold.It was a mess.Kristy’s clothes were scattered all over my bed, cluttering the small space I had left for myself.My sanctuary—invaded. Violated.I stood there for a moment, memories rushing in like a flood.Once, this place held happiness.Luke and I had shared real laughter.He’d fallen in love with me after a hunting trip and soon claimed me as his Luna.He held a sacred marking ceremony in my honor, with the blessings of the Moon Goddess and the cheers of the entire pack.That day was the happiest moment of my life.Then came our twin pups—Chris and Collin.Luke even built this den with his own hands, promisi

I lay on the bed, wide awake, unable to sleep.I could still feel my wolf’s anxiety—restless, unsettled. She couldn’t sleep either.So I climbed onto the roof, gazing down at our den—what used to be my home—bathed in soft moonlight.I wanted to calm my wolf.To calm myself.It had been so long since I last took a moment to appreciate the beauty of the moon.And even longer since our family truly came together under it.Ever since Kristy arrived, it felt like there had never been a proper reunion.During the last hunting ritual, she twisted her ankle.On Full Moon Day, she came down with a sudden fever.Every one of my birthdays—every single one—something happened to her.Some accident, some emergency.And each time, I was forgotten.Luke would rush her to the infirmary, with my twin pups trailing behind like obedient shadows.Not a word left for me.Whenever I tried to express how hurt I was, Luke always silenced me with the same cutting line:“You’re the Luna and her sister-in-law. Wh

"Christina, what game are you playing this time? I've been deceived by you again. You just can’t stop competing with Kristy, can you? Is it even worth it? Hello?"Luke hung up the phone angrily."Christina is always like this! Now she’s even threatening to skip the ceremony!"He shook his head in frustration."Dad, if Mom doesn’t go to the ritual… where will she go?"Chris asked, his eyes wide with unease."She… she told me she was heading to the Northern Territory, but…"Luke muttered, his gaze turning serious."It was chaotic just now. I’m not even sure I heard her right.""Dad, we have to go home and check on Mom. I have a bad feeling… like she’s really going to leave us for good!"Collin’s voice trembled with panic.He grabbed Luke’s and Chris’s arms and was about to rush toward home—when Kristy stepped in front of them.She let out a soft sob and clung to Luke’s hand."Luke… are you going to leave me? I’m scared. What if Christina comes back and hurts me again when you’re all gon

Chapter 6

Time flew quickly, and before I knew it, I had spent my first Full Moon Day in the Northern Territory.I found peace in this distant land—no arguments, no betrayals, no slander.My days were simple but fulfilling: training, combat drills, and guarding the borders.Just as I was about to head out for the tribe’s night run, Alex approached me.“Christina, someone’s waiting in the main hall to see you,” he said quietly.The moment I heard it, my heart stirred—I had a feeling.But before I could speak, Alex looked at me with pleading eyes, silently begging me not to refuse.I swallowed my words and followed him into the hall.As expected, Luke was there.So were my twin pups.They ran toward me the moment they saw me.“Mom! I missed you so much!”Chris threw himself into my arms, sobbing.“Why did you come to a place so far away?”“Please come home with us, Mom. I promise, I’ll never hurt you again,”Collin clung to my arm, burying his face against me.I looked at them—my boys.They seemed
