Rival De Toujours

"I, Ruby Quinn, reject you, Alpha Colt Reinhart, as my mate…" ************************** Walking in on my mate, Alpha Colt Reinhart, fucking a red-haired slut on our matrimonial bed was a severe jab to my heart. To make matters worse, he gloated to my face about taking her as his breeder and mocked my inability to bear a child in our four years of being together. The pain from his betrayal came with a great urge to redeem a bit of my dignity, so I rejected him and went crying to his cousin and my childhood sweetheart, Killian Reinhart. We didn’t do anything we weren’t supposed to do. He just let me sleep in his suite after consoling me. It was also the last time I laid my eyes on Colt. However, four years later, I became a mother of three boys with an insane resemblance to Killian, which was very illogical. And if that wasn’t enough complication, Colt returns to my life, pleading for a second chance, and claiming paternity of my kids. It becomes a nasty fight between the two brothers, and it can only end when I choose one of them as the father of my triplets. But how do I do that, when I wasn’t so sure myself?

As the full moon hangs above the masquerade, Apollo Cadwell shows up with Bella Lohart. One is my Beta mate, the other his childhood sweetheart. Since she doesn't have a gown for the ball, he gives her my dress instead. It's a one-of-a-kind piece I've handmade myself—priceless, even—that I'm supposed to wear for our mating ceremony. "Bella has never been to a masquerade before," he says. "A beautiful dress will help her feel more confident." I calmly hand the dress over and watch Bella slip into the gown I've designed stitch by stitch. She clings to Apollo's arm, acting sweet. "You're the best, Apollo. Can I borrow the ring on your hand as well? That moonstone is too dazzling to miss." One of our friends can no longer stand it and speaks up. "Nora spent an entire month making that ring by hand. Are you just going to give it away like that? Have you even considered Nora's feelings?" He patiently slides the ring onto Bella's finger, then replies casually, "I'm just letting her wear it for a night. Nora won't mind. I'll just soothe her afterward, and she'll be fine." He's right about one thing. I will be fine. Slowly, I began erasing myself from his world. Before leaving, I keep my promise to the Elder that I'll personally travel to The Spine of the World on the Faron Continent to continue my research on the Moonshadow Herb Alchemy Research. From that night on, Apollo and I might never cross paths again.

An ihrem dritten Hochzeitstag steht Sophia neben ihrem Mann - nur um gelöscht zu werden. Vor dem gesamten Rudel verkündet Alpha Marcus, dass er seinen wahren Schicksalspartner gefunden hat. Der Jubel ist renbetäubend. Der Verrat ist öffentlich. Und von Sophia, einst Luna, wird erwartet, dass sie mit Anmut zur Seite tritt, während ihr Ersatz, Lila, das unschuldige Opfer spielt. Marcus bittet um Verständnis. Lila lächelt durch falsche Tränen. Und Sophia, gedemütigt, aber ungebrochen, tut das Undenkbare – sie bricht die Bindung ab und geht weg. Aber Verrat endet nicht mit Ablehnung. Augenblicke später bricht Sophia in unerträglichen Schmerzen zusammen, vergiftet von genau dem Wein, den Lila ihr angeboten hat. Als sich der Tod nähert, deckt sie die dunkelste Wahrheit von allen auf: Lila ist nicht nur eine Rivalin... sie ist eine Hexe. Ermordet und verworfen, sollte Sophia für immer weg sein. Stattdessen wacht sie einen Tag früher auf - vor dem Jahrestag, vor dem Verrat, vor ihrem Tod. Diesmal erinnert sie sich an alles. Und dieses Mal ist Sophia nicht hier, um gedemütigt zu werden. Sie ist hier, um sich zu rächen.
