"Yes, Luna, that's right—it's me," Lila taunted, a smug grin slowly spreading over her features.Her look had shifted entirely from the helpless, innocent vibe she'd shown at the feast, now glaring down at me with pure spite gleaming in her gaze.Her hair wasn't that soft chestnut anymore; somehow, it had transformed into a bold, fiery red right then.Damn! Was Lila really a witch? That red wine! She had to have spiked it with poison earlier."What are you up to? What do you hope to gain from this?" I questioned faintly, frantically attempting to connect with Luna.The toxin must have hit her as well, since I couldn't reach her at all.As reluctant as I was to face it, I was powerless. Completely at Lila's whim."Worthless Luna, I doubt you ever saw this coming for yourself, huh?" Lila jeered, drawing a knife from its sheath on her hip and waving it threateningly at me."Don't go through with this, Lila. If you end my life, Marcus won't ever let you off the hook."Lila burst into laug

Ethan"That's it! Quit bringing up the idea of a selected Mate!"Over and over, I'd been forced to endure this bunch harping on me repeatedly during every single gathering with the Elders.I'd made it clear to them on numerous occasions that I refused to pick a 'fitting Luna' from the options they kept shoving in my face.I stood resolute in my choice to hold out for my genuine mate to show up, regardless of her position or standing—it was irrelevant. I'd embrace her unconditionally.I banged the door closed behind me as I exited,and my Beta, Max, pulled open the car door for me, regarding me with empathy in his gaze while he tried to comfort me."Ethan, take it easy. No point in getting worked up over those old fossils; we've got that gathering at the Nightfall Pack to attend, and we should get moving. We're running behind schedule already.""I don't get why you're griping. I didn't even overturn the table or cause a scene, Max. At the very least, I attended the blasted meeting."Th

Marcus Blackthorn, that heartless jerk, showed up in the hallway with his little side piece Lila and a bunch of guards standing right in front of us. "Alpha Ethan, if you ask me, you really shouldn't be sticking your nose in my family business." Marcus snapped arrogantly while glaring at Ethan, his hands balled into fists. Ethan grinned as he grabbed my hand and looked at Marcus with a cocky lift of his chin. "Sophia Evergreen is my fated mate, like it or not. I'm getting her out of here." I glanced down at our hands, his steady one over my shaky one. After getting stabbed in the back by my lover and poisoned by the witch who wanted him all to herself, Ethan's rough, warm grip felt so comforting. That heat was a nice change from the cold dungeon air. But after Marcus's betrayal and all the pain, my head was swirling with doubts about this sudden fated mate showing up. "Sophia, come on! Don't second-guess this, he's our mate! I'm thrilled!" Chill out, Zyra! I can't even process th

SophiaA soft whispering pulled me from sleep, and I opened my eyes slowly, realizing I was stretched out on a huge bed. At some point, someone had switched me out of my dirty evening gown into cozy clothes that felt amazingly soft against my skin. The fabric was way different from anything I'd known back at the Nightfall Pack.Two maids stood in front of me, eyeing me cautiously."Oh! You're up, Miss Sophia!""We were just gonna wake you! You already skipped breakfast, and we figured you'd be starving if you missed lunch too."I blinked and glanced out the window at the sun high up. I couldn't believe it was already noon the next day. Had I been that knocked out from dozing off in the car and getting tucked into bed that I missed everything?"Hey. I'm Sophia Evergreen, from the Ironclad Pack." I said as friendly as I could while sitting up and putting on a polite smile. From a young age, I'd been drilled on good manners and how looks mattered a ton.My attitude clearly threw the maid

I stared at the witch standing in front of me with some shock. Her hand was still on the dress I'd been eyeing. It really was a gorgeous piece."Oh, Sophia. Didn't think I'd run into you here." Lila said in a soft whisper, still playing the victim while dressed like a tramp."You oughta show some respect." I said as I kept my hand tight on the dress and gave her a cold narrow-eyed look.Lila froze for a second, her big innocent eyes welling up with tears like she might cry any moment."Enough, Sophia, you're not Luna anymore! Quit humiliating her!" Marcus Blackthorn's voice cut in as he came over, pulled Lila up from her bow, and shot me a furious glare.I was about to fire back when Ethan's bored, kinda annoyed tone came from behind. "Why'd they let these nobodies in?"The clerk stood off to the side, shaking as the vibe between us got super tense. "Sorry, Alpha Ethan, but Alpha Marcus Blackthorn is a member here too..."
