Chapter 1

~CAMILLE~ The first ray of dawn diffracted through the window and landed on my face, causing me to twitch my eyes and open them slowly. I stared at it without blinking, scared to move or make a sound. It was the morning of my birthday. I was nineteen—the legal age for every member of the Silverfang Pack. To everyone in the pack, birthdays were more than just normal days, especially the nineteenth and twenty-first. It was more like a feast—a celebration of adulthood and mating. Females got mated to their mates at nineteen, while males at twenty-one. That explained why nineteenth and twenty-first birthdays were a big deal for everyone in the pack… except me. It was just like every other day for me—ambiguous, cold, and lonely. Like a death sentence. I didn’t know what the day had in store for me, but I had to live it and endure whatever hardship came with it. Sincerely, I had anticipated my nineteenth birthday. It wasn’t a birthday to me but an escape route. I couldn’t wait to meet

Chapter 2

~CAMILLE~ My mind went blank. I stared into his eyes. They were different—not the usual eyes that portrayed the bitterness and inexplicable hatred engraved in his heart for me. The glint was something different. Hunger? Lust? Love? Nah! There was no way that could be love. Even if he wasn’t in control of his mind because of the situation, there was no way the emotion in his eyes was affection. He hated me to the core, and I honestly detested him just as much. “Mate!” He repeated the word, and Lyra growled at it. Goosebumps shrouded my skin, and an enjoyable cold gripped me. I didn’t know how to react. What a twist! Of all the men who were in the pack hall tonight, how could it be Cassius Slade? Could the moon goddess be any crueler? First, I was given a difficult life, and now I would be a rejected mate, because there was no way on earth Cassius would acknowledge me as his mate and future Luna. I wasn’t anticipating that either. There was no way I would strive to be the Luna of a

Chapter 3

~CAMILLE~Just like everyone else, I didn’t foresee that. If it had been a different man, there might have been a slight probability—but Cassius?He was devilish enough to redesign my face with a bottle. He never stopped reminding me how shapeless and ugly I was.Yet he was the same man standing in front of me right now, declaring his acceptance words before tens of pack members.I was torn between happiness and sadness. For years, I had longed for this day—when I would meet my mate and begin a new chapter of life. Unfortunately, my mate turned out to be my worst enemy. But he accepted me. Should I reject him or be thankful? Sincerely, I never thought any man would accept a woman like me, but he just did. And he wasn’t just any man… he was the son of an Alpha. Shouldn’t I accept the favor Cassius was tossing at me? He was ready to marry me despite my looks.“Say the words, Camille.” He broke my train of thought. My heart skipped a beat when my eyes locked with his. He glanced at me hu

Chapter 4

~CAMILLE~Should I laugh or cry? I don’t even know. What emotions should a woman who caught her mate cheating on her have? I just stood still—numb, devoid of reaction. What tragic luck I have with everything!The two were getting a kick out of their moment, their backs to me. Tears rushed to my eyelids, but they wouldn’t dare stream out.“You should remember to shut the door next time. Not everyone wants to walk in on your shit.” The words left my mouth without thought, and I loved it. My voice was neither shaky nor croaky. It was neutral and apathetic. How did that happen?The duo inclined their heads to the side and glanced in my direction at my voice’s reverberation, still intertwined. Cassius was thrusting slowly in and out of her.They didn’t seem aghast to see me—like they had been expecting me to witness what they were doing. Luna Benita wasn’t shocked or ashamed. She kept moaning and clutching him tightly as the pleasure built inside her. Tears welled in my eyes, and my lips p

Chapter 5

~CAMILLE~Ugly! You are shapeless! I accept you, Camille Mullen, as my mate. I saved you from shame. Ah!!! Cassius Slade!!!Different voices echoed in my ears even when I was already dead. I guessed the trauma would follow me to the deepest part of the grave. Although it was pathetic that I had to end things the way I did, that was the only helpful action in that situation. Getting killed by Cassius was not my will. If I couldn’t get the best life I wished for, I should get the best death I wanted, and I did.My eyelids parted for a second. Everywhere was white. This would be a different world. Is reincarnation real? Have I really been taken to a different place? Why was everything white?“Why isn’t she awake yet? It’s been three days.” This authoritative tone hovered in my ears. What was that? Do I need to wake up again?“I’m sorry, Alpha. I will run a quick checkup one more time to see why she isn’t awake yet.” Another soft, monotonous voice wafted into my ears. What was that? Is th

Chapter 6

~CAMILLE~I swallowed hard, staring at him without blinking. Every hair on my skin stood on end; goosebumps covered me, and fluttering waves washed over me.“Mate,” Lyra whimpered, her voice trembling with a mix of hope and hunger.But my heart didn’t race with joy. It stumbled—confused, wary. A second chance mate? When my first hadn’t even been rejected? No… this can’t be the Moon Goddess’s kindness. She couldn’t be this cruel or kind.This was definitely another prank from her. She wanted to make a fool of me… again.Alpha Dante’s storm-gray eyes lingered on me. His face softened, lips tugging into a smile so gentle it almost disarmed me. Almost. Because the smile was just too good to be true. There was no way an Alpha would smile at me. I had known them. Alphas aren’t nice people.“What did you do to make that happen? This cannot be the goddess’s wish,” I fired before thinking. That was the only logical explanation for what was happening. A second chance mate?I scoffed.The Moon G

Chapter 7

~DANTE~She was more fragile than I expected. More fragile… and more dangerous.Camille. My second chance mate.Her eyes were too wide, too careful. When she pierced them into me, I felt naked. It was as though her eyes had peeled me of everything and could see through the plans I had for her.And when she spoke back without thinking twice?That wasn’t the behavior of an innocent woman. It was too chaotic for a woman who had barely escaped death. It was the behavior of someone who had been trained to be a pawn. She was fearless, ready to strike at any second.And the way she suddenly showed a sign of fear, flinching at every word and asking me not to come closer? None of those looked real. She seemed like one who had been trained to garner empathy from targets rather than one who had truly lived in fear for years.I couldn’t afford to be careless.The Silverfang Pack had been testing my borders for months, probing for weaknesses. We had been enemies for years, but they crossed the lin

Chapter 8

~CASSIUS~ My heart was in turmoil, scattered and chaotic. Too many thoughts slammed into me at once. I paced my bedroom, one hand gripping my hip, the other between my teeth. Camille was missing. The last time I had seen her was the day she caught me fucking Father’s mate, my stepmother. Since then, she had vanished. At first, I thought she was just hiding—heartbroken, weak, too cowardly to look me in the eye after what I had done. But it didn’t seem so simple anymore. She was gone. Truly gone. Maybe she’d even fled the pack. Nobody had seen her. What if this bitch came back and exposed me? What if she destroyed everything I had with Benita? Where the fuck had she run to? I thought I had broken her enough to keep her silent, to keep her head bowed. I thought my words were enough to break her wings and make her do my bidding. How had she found the nerve to run from me when I hadn’t even rejected her yet? “Young master.” A guard’s voice ripped me from my storm of thoughts. He bowed

Chapter 9

~CAMILLE~Sitting by the window, I watched the moon slowly take charge of the sky as the grayness deepened… not because I loved staring at nature, but because of the plan I had.Since I opened my eyes, I couldn’t think of anything else but the dangers hovering around him. I didn’t trust whoever that man was. The Moon Goddess has a rule, and she sticks to it. She doesn’t give a second-chance mate unless the previous bond has been broken—and Cassius hadn’t rejected me yet. How did I become another man’s mate when I still carried Cassius’s fate? There was no logical explanation for that. I wasn't even special enough to experience such a rare situation. Something was wrong. The man who called himself Alpha Dante must have done something to me while I was asleep. A magic? A trick? Casted a spell? After everything I endured at Silverfang Pack, I couldn’t trust anyone anymore. At first, I thought I had died. I thought the Moon Goddess wouldn’t give me a second chance. But she did. And sinc

Chapter 10

~CAMILLE~ A ray of light slipped through the window and fell on my face, forcing me to open my eyes after hours of refusing to get up. I was scared. I’d been caught by Dante while running away last night, and he hadn’t punished me. Who knew what he planned to do to me today? Wouldn’t it be better if I slept forever than got punished? My shoulders sagged, and my body ached torturously. I hadn’t healed from the fall from the cliff. I was supposed to still be on the sickbed, but my desperation to flee hadn’t let me consider that. Then a knock ripped through the air, breaking my train of thought. My heart thudded. Was he here to ruin me already? Jeez. I should have died in my sleep rather than wake up to this misery. The knock came again. I got out of bed and opened the door. There was no need to be scared anymore. The worst had happened. I had died once—what could be worse than that? Nothing. I just needed to endure whatever Dante threw at me. And one day, while he slept at
