“Elara!"Hearing Kael's voice echo through the stone corridor, my whole body stiffened.I raised my eyes and only then realized I was standing outside the Moon Temple.The night before Blood Moon. I was back.Another raw growl tore through the corridor outside my door, pulling me completely out of my daze.I recognized that sound very well.In my previous life, hearing the Alpha in this state, I had rushed to him without a second thought.The moment he pinned me against the temple, I had melted into his heat and allowed him to claim me right there.This time, I would not be his fool.I pushed open my door and walked down the corridor. The moment I stepped into the Moon Temple, the sharp scent of Silver Fern burned my throat.He was slumped against the altar, his body shaking, his eyes red and unfocused."Elara." He reached out a hand toward me.The familiar burning in my chest urged me to step forward, but I forced my feet to stay rooted. Before the heat could overwhelm my senses, I cl

There was a long pause before Beta Kane finally spoke again."What about the Alpha? I heard you were devoted to him. What makes you change your mind now?"I tightened my grip on the phone.They had offered me this position once before. I had turned it down without hesitation, telling them my place was beside my Alpha.Because I had believed my cooking belonged to him.My food had healing properties. It always had.For years, I had poured that gift into every meal I made for Kael. Injuries that should have left him bedridden for weeks healed within days after he ate my food. Poison that could kill an entire pack barely affected him after I brewed his tea.He never once realized it was me.I had wasted my gift on a man who never saw its value. Now, I would use it for wolves who mattered."Let us just say I have awakened. My blind devotion had me lost, but now I see clearly.""Very well. Report to Blackwood in seven days."Hanging up the phone, I let out a slow breath.This time, I would

The next morning, I began quietly packing the belongings that truly belonged to me.I folded each piece carefully, placing only the items I had bought with my own money into the leather trunk at the foot of my bed. The few dresses the Alpha had gifted me over the years, I left hanging in the closet.Reaching into the drawer beneath the mirror, my fingers brushed against the dried herbs and the worn recipe book I had brought from my mother's kitchen before I came to this pack.These were the only things that truly belonged to me. The door suddenly pushed open.The Alpha stood in the doorway, his eyes sweeping across the half-empty wardrobe and the trunk on the bed."Why are you getting rid of your things?"I folded the last scarf and placed it inside the trunk. "I am donating the old clothes to the eastern quarter. I want to change my wardrobe."The Alpha studied my face for a long moment. Finding no trace of defiance, his expression relaxed slightly."Good. A Shadow Luna should always

I opened my eyes and the white ceiling of the healing center slowly came into focus.My body still ached from the injuries I suffered at the ceremony. The sharp sting of glass cuts throbbed beneath the bandages wrapped around my palm.I reached for my phone and checked the screen.No calls. No messages.I already knew I should not have expected anyone to check on me. Yet the silence still confirmed everything I needed to know.While everyone had been worried about Serena and her unborn pup, no one had cared whether I was bleeding alone somewhere.I pushed myself out of bed and walked toward the door of my room. The moment I stepped into the corridor, voices drifted from the healer's station."The Alpha stayed beside her the entire night. He refused to let anyone else near her. He even threatened the head healer when he suggested moving her to a regular room.”"To be loved like that by an Alpha... Serena is the luckiest woman in the territory."I walked down the corridor and reached th

On the morning of the official bonding ceremony, Kael became determined to protect the event from any interruption.Everyone recognized how important today was to him. The entire pack had spent the night preparing the Sacred Grove, hanging silver lanterns and fresh moonflowers for the Luna who was carrying his heir.But Kael specifically feared Elara would interfere.Her silence over the past few days made him suspicious. It was unlike her.He assumed she was secretly planning to disrupt the ceremony. It was exactly what she would have done in the past—cry, beg, cause a scene until he was forced to deal with her.Just before stepping into the Sacred Grove, Kael couldn't shake the concern gnawing at his chest. He turned to his Beta one last time."Is Elara at the mansion?"The Beta nodded quickly. "Yes, Alpha. She returned early this morning and went straight to the kitchen. She won't cause any trouble."Only then did Kael enter the Grove, feeling a slight sense of relief.But despite t

The Silver Fern from that night was still in his system. The drug had never fully left, and now its effects were worsening without warning."Elara!"Her name tore from his throat before he could stop it. Silence answered him.He called again, his voice hoarse. "Elara!"Nothing.For years, she had always been there whenever he needed her. Through every attack, every fever, every night his wolf had raged beyond control, Elara had been the one constant he never had to ask for.Now, the silence stretched on, and a cold realization settled in his chest.Elara was truly gone.Turning to the healer who had rushed to his side, Kael gripped the man's collar."Investigate why the drug is still acting on me. It should have faded days ago."The healer checked his pulse, his expression growing increasingly troubled."Alpha, the drug should have faded by now. Serena might have soothed your heat, but it was the shadow luna’s cooking that actually stabilized your system against the Silver Fern. Withou

"Serena, Elara is still your sister. Don't you think the way you speak about her is a bit inappropriate?"Serena froze for a moment, looking embarrassed."I—that is not it. It is just Elara was being rude to you that I could not hold back.""Is that so? I have known Elara longer than you. She has never been anyone's doormat and she has never dangled herself in front of any man. Even when you took everything from her, she did not chase after it. So why are you saying these things about her?"Serena's face paled."Kael, I—""We are monsters," he said, his voice hollow. "She does not deserve any of this."His legs gave out beneath him. He sank to the kitchen floor, his body shaking not from the drug this time, but from something far worse.The memory of Elara's face at the birthday celebration flashed through his mind. She had been bleeding. Her hand had been cut open by the same glass that had scratched Serena. And he had not even looked at her.He had not asked if she was hurt. He had n

When I arrived in Blackwood territory, I chose a cozy place to settle in.The view was nothing short of breathtaking. I opened the curtains to the sight of clear blue skies stretching over the mountains. The snow-covered peaks rose majestically in the distance, surrounded by endless greenery and fresh air.I had forgotten how much I loved mountains.As a child, before my parents had died and left me at Crestfall, I used to climb the hills behind our village just to watch the sunrise. I used to dream about exploring territories beyond our borders, about living a life that belonged entirely to me.Then I became Shadow Luna, and every dream I had ever held was traded for the hope that Kael would one day look at me the way he looked at Serena.But now, breathing in the sharp pine scent, I realized I no longer had to live according to anyone's expectations.I was finally free to go wherever I wanted.I unpacked my things into the cabinet, the familiar motions grounding me. Then, I lay down

But it seemed Kael didn’t understand rejection. He shook his head and said, "No, I can't let you go. We've been together for so many years. You once said you'd love me for the rest of your life. Why are you leaving me now?"I realized then that he was still clinging to the very history I had spent a lifetime trying to escape. He reached for my arm, but I pulled away before his fingers could touch my skin."I did love you once. But that love died long before I left the pack.""I know you better than anyone, Elara. You cannot possibly have stopped loving me so quickly."His certainty almost made me laugh. He had spent years failing to understand the woman standing beside him, yet he still believed he knew her heart better than she did."What exactly do you expect me to love, Kael? The empty marriage? The Shadow Luna title? The years I spent begging for scraps of your affection?"His expression faltered. He had no answer that could undo what I had endured. Just then, he gripped his arms,

Chapter 10

I had just finished separating the wolfberry stems when hurried footsteps echoed from the corridor. A palace servant appeared in the doorway, her face pale, practically running."Miss Elara, Prince Adrian has suddenly fallen ill. The healers are struggling to stabilize him."My stomach dropped.Grabbing my apron, I abandoned what I was doing and followed her.The corridor outside Adrian's chambers was in chaos. Guards lined the walls while servants crowded the entrance, their faces tight with fear. Inside, healers moved frantically around the bed where Adrian lay, his skin ashen, his breathing shallow and uneven.Studying his condition, I realized quickly that ordinary treatment was not working. Whatever was affecting him had settled deep into his wolf, and the healers' remedies were barely touching it."Let me prepare something for him."One of the healers turned to me with visible frustration. "The best healers in the territory have already failed. How can food possibly help?"Despit
