GiulianaRyan brought me with him to a moon festival hosted by another pack, and the moment we stepped into the hall, I understood immediately why it was treated as something important.The space was large, properly arranged, filled with people already moving around like they belonged there. Soft music played in the background, not loud enough to interrupt conversations, just enough to fill the silence between voices. The lighting was warm, coming from chandeliers and wall fixtures, giving the entire hall a controlled, formal atmosphere.Every woman wore white.I glanced down at my own dress for a second, smoothing the side of it before lifting my head again.Logan never took me to anything like this.Not once, he would either go alone or with Chloe.Ryan stepped forward beside me, already being approached. Other Alphas greeted him, their attention settling on him without hesitation. Some shook his hand, others nodded with quiet respect, and a few lingered longer than necessary, speak

Giuliana I woke up slowly, my eyes opening to a ceiling I didn’t recognize, and for a second I just lay there, trying to gather myself. The room was quiet except for the faint sound of movement beside me, and when I turned my head, I saw a maid standing close, carefully cleaning my hands with a damp cloth.My brows pulled together slightly as I watched her, confusion settling in before anything else.This wasn’t my room.Memory came back clearly, one moment after the other, and my chest tightened as everything settled in. The hall filled with people, the festival lights, Logan standing in front of me with Rosser beside him, the argument that followed, and then the pain that forced me down, the blood soaking through my dress, and the way everything slipped out of control before I could steady myself.I pushed myself up abruptly, panic rising fast as my hands moved to my abdomen.“My baby,” I breathed out, my voice shaking before it rose without control, “my baby!”The maid startled im

RyanI had been in the woods for almost a full day, moving through every part of that forest with warriors from the pack that hosted the moon festival. They had promised protection for her, and they failed. I didn’t hide my anger when I confronted their Alpha earlier. I made it clear that their failure almost cost me my mate and my child. I told him to send his best men into the woods, and to his credit, he did. But none of it changed the fact that Giuliana was gone.We pushed deeper into the woods, cutting through thick bushes, following every trail that looked disturbed. I kept thinking we would find her tied somewhere, injured but breathing. But every path we took ended in nothing. No scent trail. No sign. No sound. Just endless trees and cold air.I stopped at the edge of a narrow path and wiped sweat from my face. My chest burned from the run, but my legs refused to stop. I didn’t care how far I had to go. I wasn’t leaving this place without her.A warrior behind me panted. “Alph

RyanThe council hall carried a different kind of silence when I stepped in, one that wasn’t empty but filled with expectation. The elders were already seated, their attention shifting toward me the moment the doors closed behind me. Xander stood off to the side instead of taking a seat, leaning casually against one of the pillars like he didn’t belong in the room, yet somehow still controlled the atmosphere more than anyone else present.I didn’t acknowledge him immediately. My focus remained on the elders as I took a steady stride forward, stopping at the center of the room.“You called for me,” I stated, my voice even.One of the elders inclined his head slightly. “Alpha Ryan, we trust your return was… successful.”Successful wasn’t the word I would have used, but I didn’t waste time correcting him.“She’s back,” I replied simply. “That is what matters.”Another elder leaned forward slightly, his hands resting on the table. “We heard about the incident at the festival.”Of course t

Giuliana Ryan made the announcement himself. He did not call for a long meeting or leave space for debate. He stood before the pack and delivered it plainly, his voice steady, his decision already settled. The bonding ceremony would take place that night under the moon, and there would be no delay. I stayed where I was and listened as it carried through them. No one interrupted him. A few of them shifted slightly, exchanging brief looks, but no one stepped forward to question it. The elders remained still, their silence measured, their acceptance quiet but clear enough. I felt the attention turn toward me in passing glances that did not linger, but they were there. Ryan stepped down and came straight to me. “Tonight,” he stated, stopping in front of me, his eyes fixed on mine. I held his gaze. “You prepared too fast Ryan.” “It was necessary, I realized I needed you to have the Luna position to be able to protect you better.” he replied, his tone calm but firm. I stud
