Chapter 1

A knock on the Beta’s office door made him look up. “Enter.” Beta Theodore Gilmore called.“You wanted to see me step-father?” His stepson, Peter Sherwood, stated rather than asked.“Ah, yes, sit, we have much to discuss.”“About sir?” Peter asked.“My daughter,” Theodore stated flatly.“What about my step-sister Clover?” Peter asked again, shock written all over his face. It was well known to members of the pack that he had been nothing but an asshole to his step-sister, and now he knew something was going on.“Step-sister? From tonight, I want you to take her as your mate. At her coming of age.”Peter froze at his stepfather’s words, “What stepfather? Sorry, I think I misunderstood.” He thought to himself, ‘This has to be some kind of trap. Did his stepfather know about his hidden feelings for his step-sister Clover?’“No, you didn’t mishear me at all. My daughter is the only one of my bloodline that can take the Beta position, and as my step-son, that place would be yours if you ta

Chapter 2

Meanwhile, Peter paces the forest path, his thoughts a chaotic mess. The possibility of having Clover as his mate, something he's secretly dreamed of but never allowed himself to truly consider, now dangles before him like forbidden fruit. But not like this. Not through manipulation and politics."Fuck," he growls, kicking at a fallen branch. The wood splinters under his boot. "She deserves better than this."What Peter doesn't know, what none of them realise, is that the Goddess has plans of her own. As the sun begins its descent toward the horizon, marking the approach of the ceremony, ancient magic stirs within the pack lands. The Claiming Stones in the ceremonial circle pulse with energy, preparing for a revelation that will shatter carefully laid plans and force long-buried truths into the unforgiving light.And at the centre of it all, still unaware of the forces converging around her, Clover Gilmore stands at her bedroom window, watching the preparations for her ceremony in the

Chapter 3

"Show me," he says, the command softened by genuine curiosity.Clover hesitates, studying his face for any sign of mockery or trap. Finding none, she retrieves her phone from the nearby dresser and unlocks it. Her fingers move swiftly across the screen, pulling up a series of messages from various pack members. She hands it to him without comment, watching his expression carefully.Milton scrolls through the messages, his eyebrows drawing together as he reads. Anonymous accounts calling her "Beta bitch" and "bloodline mistake." Suggestions that she should reject her position for the "good of the pack." Threats thinly veiled as advice. Some dating back years, others from just this morning."How long has this been happening?" he asks, his voice deceptively calm even as rage builds within him. His wolf is snarling now, protective instincts flaring unexpectedly."Since I was fourteen," she answers simply. "Around the time it became clear my father wouldn't produce a male heir. So do whate

Chapter 4

Milton's expression hardens, his wolf clawing at him with such intensity that he nearly doubles over. The animal inside him recognises something his human half refuses to acknowledge, something primal and inevitable."I'm not stopping you from honouring your mother," he says, his voice softer than Clover has ever heard it. "But this conversation isn't over. Not by a long shot."He turns and strides toward the door, pausing with his hand on the knob. Without looking back, he adds, "I'll see you at the ceremony, Clover. And things are going to change after tonight, I promise you that."“Yeah, right, sorry if I don’t believe you, coz people have told me that for years, and well, I’m still the unwanted one except by the kids I help at the preschool, so whatever. Well, until they’re old enough for others to get into their head, and then they start. As I said, it might be better if I transfer.”Milton stands frozen at the door, her words hitting him like physical blows. His wolf is practica

Chapter 5

Unknown to Clover, Peter watches from behind a massive oak tree, his heart twisting at the sight of her vulnerability. He had followed her at a distance, drawn by an impulse he couldn't explain. Now, seeing her alone at her mother's memorial, the magnitude of what his stepfather is asking of him crashes down with suffocation. “Oh, mother, I wish you could see me now, but the pack doesn’t want me. No one truly wants me, mother. Maybe I should do what I have thought about sometimes, I’ve had offers from other packs, and with the bets from pack members of me being exiled tonight, it might…might be for the best of the pack.”A soft breeze stirs the trees around the clearing, carrying Clover's whispered confession to ears she doesn't know are listening. The words hang in the air, heavy with resignation and a lifetime of rejection.Peter's chest tightens at her words. The thought of Clover leaving the pack, leaving him, creates a hollowness inside him that he isn't prepared for. His wolf wh

Chapter 6

As they face each other in the sacred clearing, neither notices the shimmer in the air around Lettie Gilmore's memorial stone, a subtle disturbance that makes the wildflowers tremble despite the absence of wind. The Goddess watches, unseen but present, as fate begins to tighten around them all.Peter opens his mouth to tell her about Theodore's plans, about the arranged mating her father is orchestrating, but something stops him. Perhaps it's selfishness, the knowledge that his confession might drive her away forever. Or perhaps it's the realisation that she deserves better than to be manipulated, even with the truth."Just promise me you'll be careful tonight," he says instead, backing away slowly. "Things might not be what they seem."Clover watches him retreat with narrowed eyes, suspicion replacing some of her anger. Peter has never shown concern for her well-being before. The unexpected shift leaves her unbalanced, adding to the strange tension that's been building all day.Once

Chapter 7

"You look beautiful," Eliza says softly, adjusting the drape of fabric over Clover's shoulders.Clover meets her own eyes in the mirror, searching for courage in their amber depths. "Beauty won't matter if I fail to shift."Eliza's hands were still on her shoulders. "You won't fail. Your wolf is strong—I can feel her stirring already."Across the pack house, Peter paces his room, Theodore's words echoing in his mind. The thought of claiming Clover as his mate sends conflicting waves of desire and shame through him. He wants her—has wanted her for years, but not like this. Not as a political pawn.His phone buzzes with a message from Milton: "We need to talk. Now."Peter hesitates, then types back: "Can't. Getting ready for the ceremony."Milton's response is immediate: "It's about Clover. And the bets."Peter's heart sinks. If Milton has discovered the betting pool, things are about to get complicated. His thumb hovers over the keyboard, uncertainty making him pause.In the Alpha's qu

Chapter 8

Luna Joanna falls into step beside Clover, her presence a calming counterpoint to the tension radiating from the men. "Your dress is lovely," she says softly. "The silver threads honour our traditions beautifully.""Thank you, Luna," Clover responds, grateful for the simple kindness after a day of emotional upheaval. She feels her wolf stirring more insistently now, responding to the proximity of the ceremonial grounds where generations of Kirkwood wolves have first shifted.The ancient stone circle gleams in the moonlight, twelve monoliths arranged in perfect harmony with the stars overhead. At the centre burns a sacred fire, tended by the pack's eldest member, Grandmother Willow. The old woman's face is a map of wrinkles, but her eyes shine with ancient wisdom as she watches the procession approach.Milton feels his wolf's urgency increasing with each step closer to the circle. Something primal and unstoppable builds within him, a recognition his human half still refuses to acknowle

Chapter 9

"Milton?" Peter calls, moving toward his friend with concern etched across his features. "Are you alright?"But Milton doesn't respond. Can't respond. His wolf has taken the reins completely, pushing his human half into the background as ancient instincts override years of denial. His body moves of its own accord, each step bringing him closer to Clover as she completes her shift back to human form.Theodore sees the change in Milton's demeanour and reaches for his daughter protectively, but Alpha Frederick's hand on his shoulder stops him."Don't," the Alpha warns quietly. "This is beyond your control now."Clover stands tall in her reformed ceremonial dress, the fabric shimmering as if it contains captured starlight. The successful shift has filled her with newfound confidence, her amber eyes bright with the power of her wolf just beneath the surface. She feels different, stronger, more complete, but that sensation is quickly overshadowed by awareness of Milton's approach."What are

Chapter 10

Without a word, he was on the move; his friends were right, he might have felt like he had been rejected in that moment, but he had been doing that to her for years, and the shame burned like acid.Milton races through the forest, his heart hammering against his ribs. The ceremonial circle fades behind him, the shocked murmurs of the pack growing distant as he follows Clover's scent, lavender and pine, now tinged with the sharp edge of fear. His wolf guides him unerringly through the darkness, more attuned to her presence than he ever allowed himself to acknowledge."Clover!" he calls again, his voice echoing among the ancient trees. "Please, wait!"But Clover has no intention of stopping. Her newly awakened wolf lends her speed she's never possessed before, her bare feet barely touching the forest floor as she flees. Tears blur her vision, but she doesn't slow down. The humiliation burns worse than any she's endured before, to discover her fated mate is the very man who has spent yea
