I'd been dating Blake in the human world for three years. The night of the Moon Festival, I returned to his pack with him. The Gray Moon Pack.He’d promised we would bond before the Moon Goddess. Instead, at my own welcome party, he handed me a glass of wine laced with silver poison. One sip, and I hit the floor.My wolf howled in agony inside me.Fire burned its way down my throat, spreading through my veins and crushing my strength.As my consciousness faded, I remembered the moment I agreed to come back with him.He had held me so tight, kissing me with a passion I thought was real. His eyes had shone with pure joy."My love, I know you're tired of the pack conflicts, but you can't hide in the human world forever. Come home with me. Be my Luna. I swear, I'll be your shield. I'll protect you from all the blood and treachery. No one will ever hurt you again."I hesitated. "But your pack... your parents... will they really accept a simple Omega? Especially one who's lived in the human

Silas studied my face. Then he leaned in, inhaling the scent rising from my skin."Not bad," he said, standing up and nodding at Blake. "It's definitely the moonlight aura."This was my last chance.I had to make him know who I was.Using what little strength I had left against the poison, I forced out the ancient, secret phrase known only to the core members of the Silver Peak Pack."By silver moon, and mountain peak…"The smile vanished from Silas’s face. Shock morphed into pure rage.SLAP!He backhanded me across the face. The silver ring on his finger tore a bloody gash across my cheek."Where did you learn that code?!"His eyes turned murderous as he glared down at me.I was stunned. He… he understood?Then why…"I… I am from the Silver Peak Pack!" I tried desperately to explain, my voice raw and broken. "I'm Cora! Where is Gideon? What happened to…"At the mention of Gideon's name, Silas's expression grew even more sinister."Gideon?" he sneered. "That exiled traitor? You know hi

I blinked my eyes open, warm sunlight streaming into the room.I was in my old room, the one Roric had kept for me for eight years."You're awake," Dr. Asher said, a look of relief on his face as he put down a vial. "How are you feeling?"I tried to speak. My voice was a little hoarse, but I could talk."I'm… I'm okay.""Your wolf took a serious blow. She'll need a few days to recover," he said, checking my vitals. "But you're recovering faster than I expected."The door opened quietly, and Roric walked in.The storm clouds on his face cleared the moment he saw I was awake."Cora," he said, striding to my bedside. "Feeling better?"I met his gaze, guilt twisting in my gut. "I'm so sorry, Roric. For leaving. For coming back... like this."Roric shook his head. "No, this is my fault. I should have protected you better."He sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes filled with self-blame. "I was too careless."Dr. Asher discreetly excused himself, leaving us alone.I struggled to sit up and to

After the judgment, the guests in the hall began to disperse.I finished dealing with some pack matters and, with Roric by my side, walked toward the underground silver cells."Are you sure you want to go yourself?" Roric asked, looking at me with concern."Some things you have to finish yourself," I replied, my voice steady. "I need to be the one to break him. It's the only way to close this chapter for good."On the way to the cells, a guard hurried over and knelt. "Your Majesty, Your Highness. Blake, the Alpha of the Gray Moon Pack, just attempted to escape."I stopped. Roric frowned. "What happened?""It was his parents," the guard reported. "They claimed they wanted to see their son one last time, but they used valuables Blake had hidden to bribe a guard. They lied to him, saying the Princess had a soft heart and might grant him a pardon if he begged publicly for his life. The result… you saw for yourself."I understood immediately.Those two selfish wolves never intended to save
