Chapter 1

I woke up choking on dirt, it felt cold and damp on my tongue, filling my throat, my nose…my mouth. I couldn’t scream or breathe, my chest jerked up like it forgot how to work, like it didn’t belong to me anymore.My hands moved before my mind did, my fingers scraping at something rough, hard and…wooden, splinters sliced my skin and dug under my nails, something cracked above me and everything was too close, heavy and dark.I was underground but I wasn’t supposed to be…was I?.“Where…?” I croaked, my voice hoarse and broken, but barely a whisper. “Where am I?”No answer, just the groan of the earth above me.I pushed harder, my arms shaking, with bruised wrists, I didn’t know what I was doing, I just knew that I had to get out, I had to move from whatever this was, my legs kicked uselessly against wood, mud, and roots, but I didn’t stop, I couldn’t stop.“Please,” I muttered, to the earth or to the Moon, I didn’t know, I wasn't sure at this point. “Please, not like this…not again.”T

The kitchen was too hot and loud, and it smelled like burning onions and sweat. A sensation that stung my eyes badly but I kept my head down, hands moving fast, peeling, chopping, scraping, and trying not to draw attention, trying to be invisible.They shoved past me and threw scraps at me, called me names like it was my job to absorb them, and maybe it was, maybe that’s what being omega meant, taking hits, swallowing shame, and pretending it didn’t matter“Faster, rat,” one of the head cooks snapped, tossing a cloth at my face, it hit me hard enough to stumble, but I didn’t flinch, I just nodded and kept going.“Stars above, do you even know how to hold a knife properly?” another scoffed, slamming a basket of potatoes onto the counter. “It’s like watching a squirrel trying to sew.”“She probably eats with her hands,” one of the scullery girls added with a snort. “Omegas don’t need manners. They just need to stay out of the way.”I kept my eyes down, because it was safer that way.“Do

I stared at myself in the tiny mirror nailed to the back of the storeroom door. My dress was plain and slightly loose at the waist, patched at the sleeves and a little frayed near the hem, but I tried to smooth it down like that would change anything. My fingers were shaking and my breath kept coming too fast.This was it.The day the Moon chose.The day Kael said everything would change.I touched the spot over my heart, where the warmth of our bond had first sparked the night he held me like I was his universe. I still felt it, like a thread tied between us, thrumming faintly under my skin.“Don’t embarrass the pack,” one of the older omegas hissed as she walked past me, with arms full of linens.“Keep your head down. Don’t stare too long. No one wants to see the help fawning.”I didn’t answer. I just turned away and exhaled, slow and trembling.Outside, the ceremony drums began to echo.The halls shimmered with golden candlelight, flower garlands hung from archways, and the scent o

I didn’t cryEven as I staggered through the cold, down the worn path that wound through the woods like a scar, even as the pain burned beneath my ribs like fire licking the edges of my bones, I didn’t cry.The trees whispered above me, the wind pushing through their branches like it mourned something. Me, maybe.I didn’t know how long I had been walking. Minutes, hours, days maybe. The stars shifted. The moon slid higher, casting a pale silver light across the frost-laced leaves, but I kept walking.Away.I didn’t look back, not at the hall where they cheered for Astra.Not at the gates where Kael had turned his back.My breath stuttered. My legs trembled. Something inside me twisted again. That same strange pressure I’d felt since the morning Kael last kissed me behind the herb garden.I pressed a hand to my stomach and there was no more wondering.I know now. I was pregnant.With his child.A tiny flicker of life pulsed beneath my palm. Weak, barely-there… but still real.And I was

Chapter 5

The report came in at dawn.I was in the war chamber, staring down at territory maps when Mateo burst in, breathless and wide eyed with something I hadn’t seen in a long time…fear.“There’s someone at the border,” he said.I didn’t even look up. “Then deal with it.”“She looks like her,” he whispered.I paused. “Who?”“Eva.”My throat closed for a second.Then I laughed.It was dry, sharp and humorless.“You stir me at dawn to tell me ghosts are strolling across pack borders now?” I said, still not looking up. “Get some sleep, Mateo.”“She crossed the border near the willow,” he added quietly.I stopped breathing and everything inside me stilled.The willow.I hadn’t gone near that place in years, I couldn’t.Mateo stood there, waiting silently. My heartbeat felt like thunder in my chest.“It’s not her,” I said, finally. “Eva died.”“No body was ever recovered,” he said.My fist slammed into the table, cracking the corner of the map tile. “She died.”Seven years.Seven years since I m

I didn’t move.Even as she stepped into the packhouse like death had never touched her, I stood motionless. My mind couldn't catch up with what my eyes were seeing. Every instinct told me this was real, but everything else rebelled.Her voice lingered in my mind, reverberating through my thoughts with disturbing clarity.“Where is my child, Kael?”That single question unmade me. It wasn’t just the words, it was the weight behind them, the knowledge that I had no answer and the fact that I, an Alpha, her mate, the man meant to protect her, should’ve known. Should’ve done better. But I hadn’t and I failed her.“She can’t stay here,” Astra said beside me, her voice unsteady but edged with fury.I didn’t turn toward her. My gaze remained fixed on the direction Eva had walked. The woman who vanished seven years ago had returned, but she was no longer the girl we’d discarded.“That’s Eva,” I murmured. “She’s changed… but it’s her.”“She’s a threat,” Astra insisted, clutching my arm tighter

Chapter 7

The gates swept open as guards came in, I heard the words loud and clear.“A child, with features of Kael and my eyes”That was my child!. I rushed inwardly to the guards with disbelief and hope at the same time. Their eyes wavered at my presence, fidgeting in fear, heads bent below and I would say I loved every bit of it.“Luna your grace” One of the guards uttered such discreet words. Luna ?… do they now yield to me because they saw the second option was their flesh getting torn ?“Hold your tracks, I was never your Luna, more like your sacrifice” I spat at them, each word holding truce, they shivered at the sound of my voice and I continued the interrogative torture.“I did not walk up here to see your fake royalties, answer as I speak, what child did you see ?”Silence for some seconds before a bolder one summoned courage to answer, eyes still facing beneath the ground.“A child, a male child born with the Lord Alpha features but his eyes took a resemblance to yours”.“Direct m

Chapter 8

This was all because of me, the child that was before me became an entity of hate, all because of me.His sinister politeness wept pores in my skin. I could feel every ounce of treachery spiral, to think my heir was to be the one who wants to end my bloodline, to end his own mother.“My sole purpose has been to kill you mother” he said, and my heart traded into shades of guilt and agony.“Who sent you ?” I said to him, it was evident his former allies were not friendly.It was visible in his appearance, like a younger mini me, lean but muscular with an aura so supreme it even held his mother to cut.“It is not who sent me but why I was sent “He said, that was already portrayed, his sole mission was murder. “You will speak when I command,” I said, fed up with his evil curtesy.“And you shall command with caution” he said, spitting in her face and name.It was then I knew that I couldn’t accept him, he was a curse, a mistake burned out of me. And before he could do anything to harm Ev

Chapter 9

Kael didn’t stop me, he never had and I couldn’t expect him to do anything for me. I was content with what I had found, my boy, his boy, our child which he plans to cast out.He always loved the easier way out , what an Alpha that makes him.I was lost in thoughts as we both walked out of Blackridge woods, let them come ,I was more than ready to defend my child.And so they came, in an instant I felt the swift of people moving, it was so fast ,so tense that I found it hard to pace my steps.“Mother !” Eryx had called to me, he didn’t just call with an ordinary look, he called out of fear and a hidden loyalty.Just like that I saw it right before my eyes , he took action and grabbed one of the unknown figures arms. Dead blood in his eyes, I saw a child devouring a full grown abnormal figure. Tearing it limp from limb, strength conveyed in a way that even Kael, his father would’ve been jealous of.This was no child, no this was a weapon, a half breed weapon that was choked by every moti

Chapter 10

I watched her leave with that curse she had adored.Eryx shadows clinging to her like death reborn.My wolf thrashed in me, a feeling I had to restrain.I wanted to drag her back, to lock her where she would be safe.I wanted to bury his throat, to stamp on the Vernon he was touched with. But an Alpha didn’t act on impulse An Alpha doesn’t grieve and let his emotions capture the serenity. No, an Alpha restrains and thinks. Build the blocks step by step and plan.I am that Alpha, I wasn’t like that before, and only acted at the east journey, taking the route of the already made, but not anymore… I was determined to behave like an Alpha, a leader and that would be done strategically.I went back inside, and just like I had imagined, words had spread round the pack.They had known of the accursed, of the child should never be.I turned to the pack, their eyes restless,lips drawn back over teeth. They were restless and hungry for condemnation.“She shouldn’t be alive, the boy smells w
