All Chapters of REJECTED LUNA MARKED WITH A CURSE: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Seraphine ~The moon was full the night my life broke apart. The air around the grand hall was thick with tension.The triplets sat on their elevated dais, shadows of power and disdain etched into their sharp features. Kaleen, the eldest of the Thorne triplets, cold and unyielding, stared down at me like I was already nothing.He was the first to reject me. “By the Moon Goddess,” he said, “I cannot claim you, Seraphine Vale. You are… cursed. I reject you.”Instantly, I felt a dagger slice through my chest. The first curse ignited instantly. I opened my mouth and tried to scream, to demand justice, but no sound came. Kaleen’s rejection had stolen my voice.My mother, standing behind me, noticed my voice was gone. “Kaleen! You cannot do this! my mother cried, her voice ringing through the hall. “You cannot destroy her; your rejection has already taken her voice.”“I don't care; I choose my own fate,” Kaleen said. He turned his back on me, leaving a silence so thick it felt like death.

~ Kaleen ~After three years of rejecting Seraphine, we were finally permitted to choose another mate as pack law demands. I had always anticipated this day, and now it stood before me, almost smiling. I wasn’t pleased merely because of the ceremony; my satisfaction ran deeper because by nightfall, Night Fang would finally have a leader. Pack tradition demanded that the Alpha triplet heirs reach thirty winters before any of us could be granted leadership and today was our thirtieth birthday. The Moon Goddess herself would decide who would rule Night Fang among my brothers and me.I smiled to myself, already convinced the title was mine. I was the eldest, the Commander of the pack’s warriors, forged by battles and discipline. Leadership had always rested naturally on my shoulders.Lyra stood before me, radiant and carefully chosen. Her beauty was delicate, her eyes filled with devotion as she gazed at me as if I were already her Alpha.“I can’t believe you’ll finally be mine, Kaleen,”

~Kaleen ~Seven days after the Moon goddess proclamation, my two brothers, Riven and Lysander, sat beside me at the council meeting organized by Elder Corvin Nightweald, the Head Elder of the Night Fang Pack.Since my father, the true Alpha, had passed on five years ago, Corvin had ruled as acting leader while we waited for one of the three of us to be chosen. My Beta, Breen Hollowfang, stood silently at my side. His jaw was tight, his displeasure obvious. He hated the decree as much as I did. Inside me, my wolf, Rhaegor, paced and snarled, claws scraping my ribs, ready to tear free as he waited for the council’s verdict.Elder Corvin, as always, wasted no time. His face never softened. His first words were aimed directly at me.“Kaleen,” he said coldly, “we gave you a simple task as the first born among your brothers and as the Pack leader and commander: to find the girl you destroyed with your own hands. Yet you stand here with nothing to show for it.”Pain flared, sharp and viciou

Seraphine~Relief and awe poured from Kaleen in waves. Lysander and Riven exchanged a stunned glance, then their expressions broke open with unmistakable joy. Their wolves howled inside them, answering the Moon in gratitude, their happiness bleeding into the air like wildfire.They surged toward me instinctively, their arms reaching out to hug me in excitement. I shoved them back with all the strength I could summon without touching them.“Don’t come close to me!” I yelled, my voice sharp with pain and authority.They halted instantly.Riven stepped forward slowly, hands raised in surrender. “We’re sorry,” he said hoarsely. “If we come on too strong… we didn’t mean to frighten you.”Before anyone else could speak, Lysander stepped forward. He came so close I could feel his warmth, yet he didn’t touch me. His gaze locked onto mine, those deceptively gentle eyes stripped of all charm and games.“No apology will ever be enough, Seraphine,” Lysander said quietly. “Words cannot undo what w

~Serahine~All through the journey to Night Fang, I was pampered by the two attendants Riven had sent. I ate whatever I desired, whenever I wished. At times, I found myself remembering how I had passed through this same path three years ago, barefoot, bruised, and running through tears and despair. Now, I rode in a guarded convoy, surrounded by maids and warriors. Life, they say, is cruelly unpredictable.The moment we crossed into Night Fang territory, everything felt different. The land no longer looked the way I had left it. Peering through the window of the Prado Jeep, I sensed celebration thick in the air. Wolves hurried toward the Alpha’s house, eager to catch a glimpse of what I had become.When the convoy reached the mansion, the gates swung open wide. The triplets stood waiting, immaculately dressed, their presence commanding the grounds. As I stepped down, I felt their stares and unhidden amazement etched across their faces. They were surprised to see how beautiful I looked.
