All Chapters of No Jealousy Left, Alpha: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

After I lost the baby, I gave up everything my mate, Alpha Rhydian, hated.I stopped using our bond to sense where he was.I could sleep soundly even when he didn't come back to our bedroom all night.I didn't even tell him when a rogue's silver blade sliced my arm during a border skirmish.The pack doctor told me to notify my family. I just answered calmly, "I don't have a family."The doctor recognized me. "You're the Luna. Alpha Rhydian is at headquarters. Should I inform him?"I shook my head gently. "No, don't."But half an hour later, Rhydian came anyway.His tall frame cast a shadow over me, his voice ice-cold. "You're hurt. Why didn't you call me through the mind link?"I lowered my eyes. "It's just a scratch. No need to bother the Alpha."A low growl rumbled in his chest. The air crackled with his fury.He was about to speak when a guard whispered outside the door, "The Alpha cares so much for Isla. She just pricked her finger on a rose thorn, and he gave her the pack's most p

For seven straight days, Rhydian never came back to our villa.I didn't ask. I just filed the petition to dissolve our mate bond and started packing my things.The first property we owned together was a villa overlooking Moon Goddess Lake. It had been sitting empty for years.It held some personal belongings that were deeply meaningful to me.I contacted the pack's asset manager, planning to retrieve them and make a final break with that part of my past.When I arrived at the door with the manager, I found it ajar. It was supposed to be locked.From inside, I heard a woman's muffled laugh and a man's low, soothing murmur.Through the crack in the door, I saw Rhydian pinning Isla against the entryway wall, kissing her neck, his hand roaming her back.A heartbeat later, he was buried inside her.A picture of us, our favorite one, used to hang on that very wall.The familiar, sharp pain flared through our mate bond.I dug my nails into my palms, trying to ground myself.I let out a slow b

Rhydian didn't show up for the next few days.He just sent his Beta with all kinds of priceless gifts. Powerful healing salves. Rare herbs from the high mountains. Tonics meant to restore a shifter's strength.Each one priceless. Each one cold.Whenever the nurse came in, I told her to turn visitors away. "The Luna needs to rest.""Ma'am, these supplements..." the nurse asked carefully."Donate them to patients who need them," I said without looking up.The day I was discharged, I handled the paperwork myself.No one to keep me company. No one to pick me up.Just like I said—I have no family.While I was waiting in line to pay the bill, an old woman with silver hair cut in front of me.She leaned on a gold-inlaid cane, wore an expensive cashmere coat, and radiated arrogance."Move. I'm in a hurry!" Her voice was shrill.I took a step back, not wanting a fight."Mother, slow down." A familiar voice.Isla was holding the old woman's arm, her face a mask of concern.Her eyes flashed with

Late that night, the private jet touched down on Ashstone Pack territory.Through the window, I saw a tall figure standing at the end of the runway.Even in the dark, I could feel the steady pressure of a powerful Alpha.The plane stopped and the door opened."Calista."The man walked forward, his voice deep and strong.He looked to be in his fifties, with silvering temples and sharp, profound eyes.This was the Alpha of the Ashstone Pack—Jaxon."Welcome home," he said, skipping the pleasantries and offering his hand.I took it, feeling a warmth I hadn't felt in a long time.Not the heat of a mate, but a deep resonance in my blood."Let's go. There's a lot to tell you."He led me to an SUV, which drove smoothly along a mountain road.Outside, forests and mountains stretched on forever, moonlight spilling over the treetops. Everything was quiet and sacred."This place is different from where you came from," Jaxon said as he drove. "The Ashstone Pack doesn't care for luxury. We believe i

Six months later.I was in the analysis department organizing new intel when an assistant rushed over."Calista, Alpha Jaxon wants to see you.""Now?" I checked the time. Three in the afternoon."He said it's urgent."I put down my files and followed the assistant to the top-floor office.The moment the door opened, I froze.Sitting in front of Jaxon's desk was a familiar figure.Rhydian.He'd lost weight.His once-powerful frame looked thin, his eyes were bloodshot, and his jaw was covered in stubble.He shot to his feet the moment he saw me."Calista..." His voice was as rough as sandpaper.I walked to Jaxon's side without a flicker of emotion. "Alpha, you wanted to see me?""Sit," Jaxon gestured to a chair. "You two need to talk."I didn't sit. I just stood there, waiting.Rhydian's gaze was locked on me, as if trying to burn my image into his mind."You... you look good," he said, the words a struggle.I didn't respond."I didn't approve the dissolution of our bond," he said, his v
