Chapter 1

The notorious Alpha of the Black Wolf pack, Kellen Blackwood, had doted on me for five years.But in the end, he sided with his lover, Ella Foster, who was carrying his child, and let my brother, Rex Hayes, be sentenced to exile in the Frozen Wastes.During the trial, Kellen even applauded the verdict. He said that exile was already a mercy.It was only when I saw Ella's pregnant belly that I realized the love I had believed in for five years had been a lie...."Rex's just being exiled to the Frozen Wastes. It's not the end of the world. Stop making such a fuss!" Kellen snapped.I never thought I'd hear those words come out of Kellen's mouth.Just last night, he had held me in his arms and softly promised me that the Black Wolf pack would always be just and fair.But now, he was personally sending Rex to his doom.I turned around, staggering, and grabbed his arm with all my strength. My voice came out dry and rough. "Why, Kellen? Why are you doing this?"He pulled my hand of

Chapter 2

I was the lowest-ranking Omega in the Black Wolf pack.Five years ago, while I was out gathering herbs in the Black Forest, I stumbled upon a gravely wounded Kellen.That day, he had been ambushed by a rival pack. More than 30 werewolves had surrounded him.Anyone else would have surrendered or been torn apart. But Kellen was no ordinary werewolf. He fought them all off alone, defeating every last one.When it was over, blood poured from gashes in his shoulder and abdomen. He leaned back against a tree, calmly wiping the blood from his arm with his shirt.When he looked up, the moonlight happened to fall right across my silhouette.Later, Kellen told me that was the moment I lit up his world and carved a place in his heart. He said I looked like a firefly in the woods, or a morning star shining in the snow.In the beginning, I was afraid of him and found every excuse to avoid him.I'd say things like, "I only like gentle and steady werewolves. You're too fierce."So, he force

Chapter 3

I never imagined everything that happened at Moon Plaza would spread through the Black Wolf pack overnight, twisted and exaggerated at every turn.By the bonfire, near the animal pens, and even out in the fields, I heard the other werewolves whispering about it everywhere I went.Some said Rex had never acted in self-defense at all, and that he had always hated Miles and struck out on purpose.Others guessed that since I'd used my blood to confess, there had to have been some hidden grudge between Rex and Miles. Why else would things have gotten so out of hand?My mother, Dorothy Anderson, overheard these rumors while out picking wild berries. She was so upset that she nearly collapsed in the grass right there.Even when we hid inside our stone house, covering our ears and closing our eyes, those malicious whispers always found a way in.…After Mom woke up, she kept frowning with worry etched all over her face. "If Rex hears those things out in the Frozen Wastes, how will he ev

Chapter 4

The kind guards escorted us safely to the edge of Black Wolf pack territory.I helped Mom wrap Rex's body carefully with clean animal hide, and together we carried him back to our stone house.Once inside, Mom went to the old cabinet by her bed and pulled out a wolf fang pendant carved with a crescent moon—a keepsake she'd hidden for years.She stitched a leather envelope from another piece of hide, placed the pendant inside, and handed it to me."Lilith, ask one of the older werewolves going out to hunt in Moon Forest to deliver this to Bray Wagner, the Alpha of the Silvermoon pack."I clutched that heavy bundle of leather in my hands as I felt my chest burn with hatred.The look in Rex's eyes before he died had told me he'd been driven to the edge, with nowhere left to go.Was I really going to just walk away from it all?But when I looked at Mom's trembling hands and tear-streaked face, I quietly sealed the leather pouch.I found an older werewolf who was just about to leav

Chapter 5

This couldn't be happening!I was his mate. How could he suddenly lose all sense of me?There was only one explanation.Kellen looked down and saw that the moonstone pendant had split in half.A jolt of dread ran through him. He threw aside the blanket and searched the house frantically, checking every corner. Finally, under the bed, his fingers found the other half of the moonstone.The edges were jagged and cracked beyond repair. There was no putting it back together.Ella came in carrying a plate of roasted meat. She froze when she saw him clutching his chest with a pale face as his eyes locked on the broken pendant in his hand.A shadow of malice flickered in Ella's eyes, but her voice stayed gentle. "It looks like it's broken for good. Why not just carve a new one with Lilith?"If this had happened before, Kellen would have tossed the stone into the fire and grabbed her chin, teasing, "Forget it. I only want your name carved into my pendant."But now, he just kept staring

Chapter 6

Kellen really had blamed Ella unfairly this time. She hadn't lied.Before I left, I entrusted Mom to the guards from the Silvermoon pack who had come to help us. Then, I returned alone to the stone house in the Black Wolf pack one last time.When I pushed open the door, the stone house was eerily quiet. I thought Kellen wasn't home, so I turned and walked toward his study.I lit the pine oil lamp and began searching his stone cabinets, digging out the scrolls that mapped out the pack's mineral deposits and all the private transaction records he'd made with other packs. I stuffed everything into a leather satchel.Once I finished, I headed into the bedroom. I hesitated when I saw someone lying on the bed.Kellen was usually so alert. No matter how exhausted he was, he'd always sense someone approaching. But now, the air in the room was thick with the smell of alcohol.I took a couple of steps forward and accidentally kicked an empty wineskin. My body pitched forward, and my forehe

Chapter 7

I never would have guessed Ella had suffered that much. But at the same time, I was more confused than ever."If Rex helped you, why did you let him be exiled?" I asked.Ella scoffed. "Of course, I did it to break you and Kellen up. If I didn't stir things up between you, how could I ever hope to become his mate?"Her words hit me like a slap, sending a chill straight through my spine."So, you spread those rumors through the pack just to drive Rex to his death and to make sure there'd always be a blood debt between Kellen and me, so we could never go back to the way things were?"A trace of approval flickered in Ella's eyes. "You're not as dumb as I thought. But really, that's only what I wanted you to think."No matter how fast gossip spreads in the pack, news from the Frozen Wastes always travels slower. So, I went there myself."I told your brother that everyone in the pack shunned you because of him. I said as long as he was alive, he'd only drag you down. If he died, you'd

Chapter 8

We hadn't left the Black Wolf pack's territory. Hector took me to a hidden camp deep in the mountains, where Mom was also staying.As soon as I stepped inside the tent, I saw Mom wiping away tears, sitting on a fur mat.Next to her stood an older werewolf in silver-patterned armor, his face contorted with anger as he struck the ground hard with his stone staff.Hector and I exchanged a look, then hurried inside."Mom," I said."Mr. Lucas Reynard," Hector greeted the old werewolf respectfully.Mom went pale the moment she saw me, soaked and covered in ice. "What happened to you?"As I didn't want to tell her the truth, I held her hand to comfort her. "I'm fine, really. I just slipped crossing the river and ended up drenched."Hector glanced at me but didn't expose my lie. Instead, he turned to Lucas and asked quietly, "Mr. Reynard, why are you here?"Lucas shot him a glare. "You've got a lot of nerve asking me that! The Silvermoon pack's allies are suffering in the Black Wolf p

Chapter 9

After that day on the cliff, Kellen had started digging into the truth behind Rex's death.As he investigated, Ella's manipulations began to surface one after another. Everything that happened between Kellen and me was all because of her interference.In the end, she even forced me off the cliff.Only then did Kellen finally realize that the one he truly cared about was always me.Just as he had slowly forgotten the feelings he once had for me, he was now beginning to break free from every promise and lingering attachment to Ella.He captured Ella and the huntsmen who'd helped her, taking brutal revenge against them.As the torture dragged on, Ella coughed up blood and hurled curses at him."You think this is all my fault? What about you? Wasn't it you who forced her to apologize for my father with her blood in front of the whole pack? Wasn't it you who destroyed Rex's body and hurt her?"Do you want me to remind you how vicious you were when you swung that bone knife?""Shut

Chapter 10

After we left the tribunal, Lucas clicked his tongue with a touch of wistfulness."Well, I guess I wasn't really needed this time. You young folks sure are something. One minute you're swearing lifelong loyalty, the next you're tearing each other apart."In the end, you just sort it all out on your own. I suppose that's what happens when life has been too easy for too long."Mom and I looked at each other and smiled through tears. At last, Rex's name had been cleared.Word spread quickly throughout the Black Wolf pack.Soon, many of those who had once joined in to accuse us quietly sent messages to apologize.They said Rex was a true warrior. He saved that Omega from being torn apart and shielded her from harm.Some of Rex's old friends even stood up for him, insisting he was an honest, passionate werewolf who always shared the best cuts of meat with the weaker members when they hunted.Ella's family couldn't go around in the Black Wolf pack anymore. Wherever they went, people
