Semua Bab My Twin Sister Killed Me for the Luna Crown: Bab 1 - Bab 8

My Omega twin sister, Stella, discovered she looked just like our neighboring pack’s beloved Luna. So she unleashed a feral wolf on the Luna during the Hunting Ritual. She wanted to take her place and mate with the Alpha."Stop!"I screamed. I ran for Luna Seraphina.But I was too late.A massive feral wolf burst from the bushes. Its black fur gleamed under the moonlight—a bad omen. Its eyes burned red with madness. It lunged for Luna Seraphina on the sacred altar.The pack warriors shifted in a heartbeat, but the feral was too fast.Its claws tore through Seraphina's shoulder. Blood bloomed across her white robes."Protect the Luna!"My sister Stella shot toward the altar like a bolt of lightning. She clutched a pouch of herbs. Her small frame was a picture of fake courage in the moonlight."Move! Get out of the way!" she roared at the stunned guards. "Are you just going to stand there and watch her bleed to death?"I stood at the back of the crowd, watching her carefully staged

The kicks and punches didn't stop. The world went black.When I opened my eyes, night had fallen.The house was empty. My body screamed, but I grabbed my bag and bolted into the forest.I didn't dare look back. I just ran, a mad dash through the black woods.I found a deep hollow in an old tree trunk and crammed myself inside.I covered myself with rotting leaves. I barely breathed.Only when I was sure no one was following did I crawl out.I stuck to the shadows, taking the pack's most deserted path toward the border.Freedom was just on the other side. But then, three shadows shot out from the tall grass.They slammed me to the ground.“Run? You think you can run?”It was Stella. Our parents stood right beside her.There was no love in their eyes. Just the glint of a predator cornering its prey.“You traitorous bitch!” Father kicked me in the stomach. “Where do you think you’re going? Trying to drag our name through the mud?”A bomb went off in my face. Blood gushed from my nose. The

“What… what is this?” Stella’s voice shook with fear. She stared at Kaelen on the dais. “Alpha? Where’s the gala? Where are the guests?”My parents collapsed to the floor, terrified and babbling.“This is a mistake!” my mother shrieked. “We’re here for the celebration! *You* invited us, Alpha!”Liam stepped out of the shadows, a cold sneer on his face.“A celebration?” he scoffed. “You really thought the Alpha would host a party for a failed assassination?”“Assassination?” Stella’s voice was a brittle whisper. She was still trying to play dumb. “I was saving her!”“Saving her?” Liam pulled out a crystal recorder.He held it high, and the crystal projected an image onto the cold stone wall. "Then please explain why you were preparing these ‘life-saving’ herbs three days *before* the attack?”The image showed Stella in a black market herb shop, carefully selecting her supplies.“And this.” Another image: Stella mixing black silver powder into the herbs.“And this.” Another image: Stella

My hand clenched the parchment. The world was spinning."That's impossible..." I whispered. "How could I be... I'm just an Omega...""Blood does not lie," Andrew's voice was gentle but firm. "You possess the purest Moonstone bloodline, even purer than Seraphina's. It's why I could feel your presence. And then there’s the fact that you can hear my mind link."I looked up at him, my mind a mess of confusion."But... you and Seraphina...""Seraphina and I were never mated," he cut me off. "We are partners, running this pack together. She is my most trusted friend, but not my mate.""But everyone said you were...""That was to protect her," Andrew explained. "Seraphina's constitution is weak. If others knew she didn't have an Alpha's protection, many would have tried to harm her and take her place."My head was spinning."Then why didn't you find me sooner? Why wait until now?"A bitter smile touched Andrew's lips. "I was always looking. But you were hidden too well. Your adoptive parents
