The Rejected Luna’s Revenge:THE VAUGHN REIGN BOOK 2 のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Cameron Steele remained rooted to the frost-covered earth of the Northlands, his gaze burning a hole into the distance where we had disappeared. He watched our retreating figures, his eyes fixed on the way my hand was tucked firmly into the grasp of another. Even from the shadows of the pines, I could sense the suffocating gloom radiating from him.Once we were truly out of sight, he yanked at the heavy fur collar of his tactical coat, loosening the tension that seemed to be strangling his inner wolf. He turned his sharp, icy eyes toward Jonah Price. "Tell me, Jonah... do you think Sierra has truly lost her instincts? Her judgment is skewed. Out of all the strays in the Northlands, she chooses to run with the kin of a snake like Lexi Hart.""I believe her spark still flickers for you, Alpha," Jonah replied, his voice a cautious whisper as he tested the frozen air between them. "Why not reclaim your mate, Mr. Steele? Bring her back to the pack house before the Vaughn bloodline claims h

I watched through the digital feed as Jonah Price shifted uncomfortably. I could practically smell the cold sweat on him through the screen. Cameron Steele’s voice cut through the air like a winter gale. "Speak, Jonah. Tell me you didn’t sabotage the Great-Pack settlement funds for your own amusement.""I... I would never, Alpha Steele!" Jonah’s voice cracked. "I followed the protocols Margaret Steele set in place. Every transaction was verified. It makes no sense for a rogue to bypass our firewalls over a few missing villas.""Is that so? Then bring me the blood-ledger for the Northland redevelopment. I want to see the audit trail myself."Panic flared in Jonah’s eyes. He knew he was trapped in a thicket of his own making. What could he possibly say when Cameron realized that out of the entire territory, only one name—Sierra Vaughn—had been flagged for 'non-compliance'?At that moment, the doors to the Steele Industries inner sanctum swung open. Lexi Hart walked in, her heels clickin

I could see the shadows lengthening in Cameron Steele’s eyes as he locked onto the glass in Felix’s hand. The air in the room grew heavy, charged with the static of an Alpha’s displeasure."Does she lack the courage to offer her own tribute?" Cameron’s voice was a low, dangerous rumble.Felix froze, the glass trembling slightly. I could tell he had hoped to play the chivalrous protector to gain my favor, but he hadn't counted on Cameron’s relentless pressure. The silence that followed was suffocating.Cameron remained reclined, his sleeves pushed back to reveal forearms corded with muscle, the golden tavern light catching the sharp lines of his face. He looked every bit the High Alpha—calculated and immovable. His gaze was a physical weight on me, and for a second, I saw my own panicked reflection in those dark depths.I couldn't let Felix take the fall. I reached out and snatched the glass from his hand."Cameron, I am grateful for the rescue. This is for you."I tilted my head back

I kept a steady pace as I walked with Landon back toward the residential borders. My brother’s presence was a fortress, even in human form."Sierra, your scent is faint today. Your wolf is hiding," Landon observed, his protective instincts flaring.I touched my cheek and forced a small laugh. "Is it? The studio has been demanding lately. My energy is drained.""You're carrying Vaughn heirs, Sierra. It’s time to retreat to the Great-Pack territories and focus on your studies. Your wolf needs the Northlands, not this industrial air.""I know, Landon. I’ll speak with Felix soon."I was drowning. Between Steele Industries’ shadow and the constant pressure from the Vaughn Circle, my world felt too small. I needed to vanish.Landon rested a heavy hand on my head. "Raising pups alone is a burden no female should carry. Are you certain about Cameron’s legacy?"I looked at the ground, my voice a mere whisper. "My decision is made. These pups are mine. They belong to the moon, not to a man who

"Margaret, don't waste your breath. Cameron isn't going to father a pup with this relic just because of a signature. That document is a ghost. Let go of your delusions, Sierra."I didn't back down. I swung the heavy scroll toward Veronica, the parchment whistling through the air. "Mind your station, Veronica. In the Northlands, it’s a mark of low-breeding to point fingers at your betters. I wasn't going to sign, but since you're so desperate for me to refuse, perhaps I’ll do the opposite just to see the look on your face."Veronica trembled, her scent turning acrid with fury. "Cameron! Do you hear her? This is the viper you’ve kept in your den. Don't let her poisonous tongue deceive you anymore."Lexi Hart saw her opening. She collapsed against a nearby chair, eyes welling with artificial tears. "Sierra... surely the Matriarch didn't raise you to be so cruel. How could you strike out at your own mother-in-law? She is the wife of an Alpha!""I am a Vaughn," I replied, my voice steady a
