Semua Bab Framed and Forsaken: Luna's Redemption : Bab 11 - Bab 20

Shadows at the SummitAuthor's POV By dawn, the whispers had already spread like fire. Every corridor, every corner of the Crescent Fur Pack’s territory carried the same story: what Natalie looked like when she was dragged out from the chaos by her people.Her dress was shredded beyond dignity. One heel gone. Hair tangled and wild. A scene no proud woman could survive without shame.The scandal was the unspoken storm hanging over the first morning of the Pack Summit.When Alpha Logan stepped into the council chamber, his entrance silenced the restless murmurs. Heads lifted. Eyes darted. Men and women who had been whispering only moments ago froze in place. None dared speak the thoughts written across their faces, but he could read them all the same.The Crescent Fur Pack was no minor clan. It stood among the strongest in the world. To mock its Alpha openly would be asking for death.Logan lowered himself into his seat, rubbing at his temple with weary fingers. The night before still

THE GAMMA'S RECKONING The air was heavy. Every eye turned to Logan when his expression darkened. The Crescent Fur Pack stood restless, anger flickering across their faces. Alpha Xerxes’s words had been meant to humiliate, and they all knew it. But no one dared strike back. Not after Killian had been beaten by Rhea in front of everyone. And worse, he was the one who had started the fight. The crowd shifted as Rhea climbed down from the ring. Her skin glistened with sweat under the harsh sunlight. She moved with quiet confidence, brushing her damp forehead with the back of her hand, before stepping beside Logan. Her lips curled into a smile that made her look untouchable. “Alpha Logan,” she said softly, though the edge in her tone was sharp enough to cut, “I trust you enjoyed the fight?” Logan’s gaze lingered on her. Strength radiated off her every step. Grace wrapped around her like armor. For a moment, his heart stumbled inside his chest. Rhea turned her head then, her voi

GRIP OF JEALOUSY The clash inside the ring dragged on, breath after breath, neither side giving way. Every strike carried heat, every counter left the crowd holding theirs.By the edge, Jordan squinted at the fight, unease written across his face. He leaned closer to Alpha Xerxes and muttered, “Is it just me, or do they look like they’re flirting… enjoying this too much?”Xerxes’s jaw tightened. His glare sliced toward him. “Shut your mouth.”Minutes ticked by. The tie held.Rhea’s chest burned, each breath sharper than the last. She was strong, but Logan’s body was built like steel. She could not outlast him. She needed to end this, and fast.Her fists struck harder, faster, her focus narrowing on offense alone. She left herself open.Logan saw it. His fist slammed into her shoulder, throwing her backward with brutal force.“Rhea!”Xerxes’s voice broke through the noise as he leapt into the ring. He caught her before she could fall again, his arm wrapping around her protectively. “A

ALPHA'S REGRETWEDDING? The word wedding struck Luna Rhea like a blade to the chest. For a moment her thoughts scattered, hollow and blank. Then reality pressed down on her. She remembered her own so-called union with Logan. No, there had never been a wedding at all. When their mate bond had been discovered, the Griffiths had sent her away like a parcel, delivered to Logan’s palace without ceremony, without vows, without even a token of honor. She had been placed in the Luna’s chambers, and that was the end of it. No celebration. No gown. No ring. Not even a whisper of belonging.Now, Natalie would have everything she was denied, the grand celebration, the crown of Luna, the devotion of the man Rhea once believed was hers.“Killian!” Logan’s voice cracked through the air, sharp and furious. “You have crossed the line!”“Alpha…” Killian started.Rhea’s calm voice sliced in before he could finish. “No, it is fine.” She turned her gaze on Logan, steady and unreadable, yet so piercing t

REJECTED, YET DESIRED What was supposed to be a small trip turned into six people walking the same path.Gamma Rhea, Kiera, Alpha Xerxes, Alpha Statham, Logan, and Natalie. The last one arrived just before they left, clinging shamelessly to Logan’s side and insisting she join.Kiera’s jaw tightened the moment she saw her. Fury burned hot under her skin, and she almost spat out her protest, ready to throw both Logan and Natalie off the trip altogether. But Rhea tugged her sleeve in silence, giving the smallest shake of her head, asking her not to speak.“Why are you stopping me?” Kiera whispered harshly, her voice sharp enough to cut. Her glare followed Natalie and Logan like venom. “We should tell them to leave right now.”“Let it go, Kiera,” Rhea answered softly, adjusting the straps of her backpack with calm control. “Alpha Logan is right. The Great Waterfall is open to everyone. I cannot stop them from coming. They are simply walking the same way as us.”Kiera exhaled in frustrati
