Chapter 1

I was eight months pregnant and had just gone into labor, but my Alpha mate, Damien, locked me in a silver cage in the basement to delay my labor.When I cried out for help, he just told me to wait.Because his late brother's mate, Victoria, was also giving birth that day.The Pack Seer had foretold that only the firstborn pup would be blessed by the Moon Goddess and become the future Alpha."The title belongs to Victoria's child," he said."She lost Marcus. She has nothing. You already have all my love, Elena. The silver cage will make sure you deliver after her."The contractions were torture. I begged him to take me to the clinic.He grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him."Stop pretending. I should've known you never loved me. All you've ever cared about is wealth and status!""To force your labor early, just to steal what belongs to my nephew… You're truly wicked."Pale and trembling, I whispered:"The pup is coming—I can't stop it. Please, I'll make a blood oath. I don't ca

"This is all your fault! Let's see how you like a taste of real silver!!"The next second, the cold silver blade sliced a deep gash in my arm.I screamed, a raw sound of pure agony.Silver poison began to burn through my veins, and I could barely breathe. I tried to stay calm, to hold my stomach with one hand and put pressure on the wound with the other.But the silver nullified my healing powers completely.The bleeding wouldn't stop. I curled into a ball, afraid to move. I lay helpless on the cold floor, silent tears tracking through the grime on my face. My belly felt like it was being ripped apart by a thousand venomous snakes.I was fading, lying there as the silver wound on my arm turned black, still weeping blood. I lost consciousness for a moment, and in the haze, I could almost feel Death's cold fingers beckoning me closer.Just as I thought it was the end, Sophia reappeared.When she saw the blood on her dagger, her face went white. She started banging on the cage, but

The healer, seeing how close to death I was, knew he had to get me to a real facility. He sent a frantic mind link to Damien."Alpha Damien, this is an emergency! Please, come to the private clinic! The Luna is in bad shape. There's a risk of silver poisoning spreading!"Damien's voice boomed with irritation. "Elena! You're more resourceful than I thought. You actually got out and found someone to help you!""I'm telling you, I'm not coming, no matter what tricks you pull! I know your body better than you do. You're not in any real danger.""I told you, that's my pup too! Your turn is after Victoria's. Why are you in such a rush?!"The healer looked at me with deep sympathy, then turned to a nurse. "Get her to the private clinic. We have to try."I never imagined they would take me to the same clinic as Victoria.The healer pleaded with the staff, but Damien had given his orders. Not a single herb was to be spared for me.Through the wall, I heard Damien's cold, hard words. "I don't

Chapter 4

Damien's POVDamien's pupils contracted to pinpricks, his breath catching as if he'd been shot with silver. He staggered back a step, but his Alpha instincts roared to life, forcing him to stand his ground."Impossible! She was stable when I left. There's no way she's dead!" he roared."This has to be another one of her tricks to get my attention. Didn't I tell you not to fall for her games?"His Beta cowered under the crushing weight of his Alpha's fury, his voice trembling."Alpha, the Luna's body is outside the silver cage. We've run a DNA test... it's her. It's really the Luna."A roar of primal fear rose in Damien's chest. Panic flooded his eyes—the kind of soul-deep terror that only comes from losing your mate.He snatched the keys from his Beta's hand and broke into a dead sprint."To the dungeons! Now!"The Beta didn't dare hesitate, scrambling to keep up with his Alpha.Damien slammed his foot on the accelerator, his werewolf reflexes making the dangerous speed feel effortles

Chapter 5

Elena's POV"But you were able to meet him, even for a short time. And for that little while, you were his mother.""It's okay. There will be other children. The Sterling bloodline will not end."He sighed, his face etched with pain for me."But if a single one of those tears is for that bastard, then they are wasted.""I told you not to mate with him. But you were so stubborn. You were even willing to cut ties with me just to be with him."I peeked my head out from under the covers. Seeing my father's face, older now after so many years, I started to cry again."I was wrong, Dad," I sobbed. "Please forgive me for being so reckless.""I'm not crying for him. I'm crying for the baby I lost."My father gently wiped away my tears, his powerful Alpha presence softening completely for his daughter."Oh, my girl. You're my only daughter, my most precious thing. Of course I forgive you."Then his eyes hardened, his Alpha's protective and vengeful nature fully ignited.He clenched his fist. "D

Chapter 6

Elena's POVWhen I saw the news, I just thought he was insane.Whatever. My father's island was in the North Atlantic, protected by powerful wards. He wouldn't find me easily.I didn't give it a second thought and continued to learn how to manage my family's pack and businesses.I was a fast learner. Within a month, I was already overseeing major dealings for the family empire, settling disputes between allied packs.One day, I had just finished a board meeting when someone burst into the conference room.It was Damien.I waved my hand, dismissing the other pack leaders.When Damien saw me, his eyes instantly turned blood-red, his Alpha possessiveness flaring.He rushed toward me and grabbed my wrist."Elena, why did you fake your death? Do you have any idea what you've done to my wolf? He's been clawing his way out of my chest. And I knew it. You love life too much to simply die."Then his expression grew serious, and his sharp Alpha senses scanned the room."How did you get in here?

Chapter 7

Damien was thrown off by my laughter. For the first time, his Alpha authority was being challenged by me.I smirked and rolled my eyes at him."You arrogant, self-important bastard."Damien was so angry he was speechless. He stood there, pointing a finger at me, but he couldn't bring himself to actually strike his mate.I was about to walk away when he suddenly grabbed my wrist with a crushing grip."Elena, I'm not letting you leave me again. My only mission today is to bring my mate home.""You don't understand. When I thought I'd lost you, my wolf was in agony. I was going crazy thinking about you.""I don't care how you try to provoke me this time. This Alpha isn't backing down."How pathetic. Who was he trying to impress with this sudden display of devotion?I yanked my arm free."Who do you think you are? Do you have any right to order me around?"He snorted, his Alpha arrogance flaring again."I'm the Alpha. I decide what rights I have."Before I could even roll my eyes again, he

Chapter 8

His voice trembled with fear. His legs gave out and he collapsed to his knees, slamming his forehead against the marble floor again and again. All his Alpha pride was gone."I didn't mean any harm, I swear. Elena and I are mates. I just wanted to bring her back to the pack. I'm sorry, Mr. Sterling. I had no idea Elena came from such a powerful family."Damien was nothing more than a pathetic dog, groveling at my feet with all his Alpha pride stripped away.My father, radiating pure fury, kicked him hard in the ribs."Bring Elena home? So you can torture her to the brink of death again?""Let me tell you, bankrupting your pack is getting off easy. I want to tear you limb from limb! I want you to feel the same pain my daughter went through."I patted my father's back, trying to calm him down.Damien, his eyes red and swollen, crawled toward me like a dog and begged."Elena, I really was bringing you back to treat you right! I was blinded by guilt over my brother, I know that now. It's wh
