All Chapters of The Rejected Luna’s Revenge: Six Alphas and a Secret Pregnan: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"Felix, these images are a total sham! Every single one of them has been deep-faked by a digital parasite. Sierra orchestrated this entire hit to drag my name through the mud!" Daphne insisted, her voice shrill with a desperate refusal to accept her fate.If she admitted the truth now, her standing in the Northlands would be incinerated. She pointed a trembling finger at me, her scent spiking with frantic aggression. "She's just trying to divert the pack's attention and shift her own filth onto me! The truth is, she’s the one who was knotted with that old rogue, not me!"I met her eyes with a dry, pitying smile. "Why fight the inevitable, Daphne? You can claim the photos are edited, but what about the raw surveillance feed I just leaked to the global network? You can't scrub the metadata on a live stream."Felix stepped forward, his eyes glued to his tablet. A video began to play, the audio crisp and unmistakable. It was Daphne's voice, hushed and conspiratorial, caught by the villa's

My blood turned to ice as I recognized the sharp, calculating scent of the female standing with Cole. It was Lexi Hart.I ducked behind the heavy stone pillar of the hospital wing, my heart hammering against my ribs. Every time Lexi appeared, a storm followed, and the last thing I wanted was for her to scent my connection to the Vaughn Circle’s elite attorney. If she realized Cole was my brother, she’d find a way to poison that bond too.I strained my ears, my shifter senses picking up their hushed, jagged argument.Cole sounded move-on-impatient, his voice a low growl. "I’ve told you already, Lexi. I am buried in pack litigation. I don't have the luxury of attending a bonding feast.""But Landon promised me the Vaughn Circle would be represented!" Lexi’s voice rose, tinged with a desperate edge. "I won't have the Steele Pack whisper that I’m a wolf without a den. It would be a stain on my honor to stand there alone.""If having 'family' present is so vital to your status, why did you

"You speak with such authority, one would think you were the Alpha of this entire territory," I remarked, my voice dripping with dry sarcasm.Candace stomped her designer heel in fury, the sound echoing off the polished stone of the lobby. However, the realization that she still needed me to play the witness to get her credits back forced her to swallow her snarl."Enough of your tongue. Just get in the elevator and keep your head down."I fell into a silent stride behind her. I looked around the interior of Steele Industries; it was a fortress of glass and steel, smelling of ozone, expensive leather, and the heavy, musky scent of high-caste enforcers. It was the heart of the Northlands' industrial power.Candace marched straight to the executive floor, bypassing the perimeter guards and barking at the secretary pool. "Where is my brother?""Alpha Steele is in a high-level council meeting, Ms. Moore. It hasn't adjourned yet. You are welcome to wait in the glass lounge," the lead secre

The reaction from Sierra’s adoptive parents after Felix’s intervention was anything but natural.Veronica Hale and Jonah Price showed their true, jagged teeth. They didn't even bother with the "loving guardians" facade anymore, spitting vitriol into the air. "I don’t give a damn about your pack laws," Veronica snarled. "We kept Sierra from the cold, so she owes us the bounty. If you don't pay up, we’ll take this to the Council of Alphas. We aren't afraid of a few pups in suits."Jonah added with a shameless grin, "If you don't hand over her credits, we’ll camp outside this studio every sunrise. We'll howl until your clients flee. We’ll see who has the stronger stomach."Veronica made herself comfortable on the floor, leaning against a designer desk. "Actually, this den is quite nice. It’s warm, bright, and smells like success. It’s a hell of a lot better than the drafty hut we have in the village."Felix was stunned; he hadn't encountered such thick-skinned scavengers in all his years

I hadn't intended to pick up, but since I was currently occupying a seat in his personal transport, ignoring him felt like a breach of conduct I wasn't ready to commit.The second the line opened, Cameron’s growl vibrated through the speaker. "Sierra Vaughn, you have some nerve deleting my link!"My jaw tightened as I stared out at the passing treeline. "I simply followed the Matriarch’s decree. She made it clear I’m no longer part of the Steele Pack.""Are you her submissive? Since when do you take orders from Margaret?" His scent must have been spiking with agitation; I could almost feel the heat of his anger through the phone.The silence that followed was heavy, pressurized like the air before a storm. I looked down at my lap, my voice steady. "Considering our current standing, there is no functional reason for us to remain linked. It’s better for the territory if we sever ties completely.""And who decided that was the only way? How am I supposed to explain this to Naomi Brooks?
