Alpha's Regret After My Death

When my stepsister, Kate Lawrence, is poisoned at the full moon ceremony, my father, Jack Blackwood, condemns me at once, convinced that I am the one behind it. He clamps silver chains around me and drags me into the manor's dark underground cell. His eyes burn hatefully as he snarls, "You wretch! How could I have a daughter like you? Rot in here!" I drop to my knees on the cold floor and try to explain, but the sentence he throws over his shoulder as he turns away snuffs out the last of my hope. "Even if she dies in there, no one shall go in! Whoever lets her out will die with her!" The cell severs the mind-link completely, so no one hears me screaming. Seven days later, he finally remembers me, not knowing that I'd already died on the fourth day when the silver burned through to the bone.

The night of my first shift at eighteen, my two older brothers brought home a twelve-year-old orphaned Omega. My alpha brother seized the rare healing herb I'd spent all my savings on—herbs meant to ease my first transformation—and gave them to her instead. "You're strong enough," he growled. "You don't need such precious herbs." My beta brother snarled with fury, pointing toward the door. "Get out! Don't come back!" I said nothing more, just grabbed my packed bag and left. They assumed I was merely throwing a tantrum, that I'd return in a few days. My brothers, finally free of my presence, took the orphan girl on an international vacation to the Caribbean islands I'd always dreamed of visiting. Many days later, when they returned to the pack, they were shocked to discover I'd accepted an offer from the neighboring pack's Head Healer. The position required fifteen years of isolated herbal research. I could never return home. That night, they fell apart.

A pack of rogues tore me apart on the very day I went into labor. Instinctively, I reached out through a mind-link to my mate, Alpha Keith Martin. "Keith," I called out in my mind. My voice trembled from the pain. "Help m–" I hadn't even finished when he cut me off. "Can you stop being so annoying? Are you doing this just because you're jealous of Madison? Why don't you just go to hell?" He blocked the mind-link completely. The world dissolved into agony. Darkness swallowed me whole. 'Congratulations, Keith. You got exactly what you wanted. I really did die, and I'll never bother you again.'

Rosemary believed her marriage to Adrian was everything. Until one night, a mysterious message led her to the Grand Aurora Hotel—where she witnessed her husband celebrating the anniversary of his first love with another woman. Before a room full of guests, Adrian placed a diamond necklace around the woman’s neck and, without hesitation, divorced Rosemary. Humiliated, ridiculed, and laughed at in public, Rosemary’s world shattered in an instant. But could she rise again from the depths of her despair?

"Laurette, you are not qualified to have a child." Hearing these words from her husband, Laurette's heart shattered into a million pieces, leaving her wondering if she'd be enough. Every time they had sex, he'd remind her to take her contraceptive pill, making sure she never got pregnant. For five years, Laurette found herself trapped in a loveless, secret marriage with Bryce – one that forbids pregnancy. No one knew about it – not even her family. It's been five years already; everyone expected children, especially her mother-in-law, who couldn't wait to cradle her grandchild. But the truth was, she'd had a miscarriage years ago, and the doctor said she couldn't get pregnant again. The memory still lingered, a painful echo of what could've been. She kept it a secret, hiding behind a mask of compliance, letting her mother-in-law cling to hope of carrying her grandchild one day. But today was different. Her mother-in-law, Mrs. Ava, fueled by years of frustration, called Laurette "infertile." Bryce stood there, silent. He knew the truth. He knew about the contract, and he didn't defend her. Instead, he handed her divorce papers and said coldly, "Let's get divorced. My first love is back." Bryce Rodriguez chose Irene – his childhood sweetheart – over the woman who'd stood by him for five years. Laurette couldn't compete when her husband's first love returned. Heartbroken but dignified, she walked away without looking back. But fate had other plans. Months later, Bryce accompanied Irene to a prenatal checkup... only to run into his ex-wife, holding triplets! He went crazy and shouted, "Whose children are they?" he demanded, his voice shaking. "I thought you're infertile?" Laurette only smiled. Too late, Bryce realized the truth. He didn't just lose his wife... He lost his entire family.

One year ago, my Alpha mate personally threw me into the werewolf prison. I was tortured until the beautiful Luna I once was completely fell apart. What he never knew… was that I was carrying his pup. A year later, when I finally walked out of that prison, the first thing I did was reject him— and break our mate bond for good. So why is he the one crying and begging me to forgive him now?

Everyone envied how my best friend and I mated to the Alpha twins of the Creek Pack. But the pack didn't know that Victoria, their widowed stepmother, was the one the Alpha twins truly loved. My best friend Cathy and I planned to run away, but the night before our escape, she poisoned herself with wolfsbane. I called her mate Damon, but he sneered, "Luna, my brother says, your and Cathy's little tricks are getting really old. Are you going to jump off Silver Cliff tomorrow?"

For four years, Alice Watson has worn the title of Luna like an invisible chain. Married to Alpha Benjamin Kane — a man who has never believed her, never wanted her, and never let a single day pass without reminding her that she was a mistake — she exists only in the margins of her own life. A one-night tragedy neither of them remembers the same way. A pregnancy he calls a trap. A son he refuses to love. That was the deal Alice made: stay quiet, stay small, and survive the ruins of a marriage that was never meant to be hers. Then their four-year-old son Lucian collapses. Diagnosed with a terminal illness. One month left to live. No cure in sight — because Benjamin himself terminated the only research that could have saved him. Alice is done begging for love. But her son is dying with a single, desperate wish: a father who shows up. So she offers Benjamin the one thing he has been demanding for years. A divorce. Her signature on the dotted line. All he has to do is play the part of a good father for thirty days. Benjamin agrees. He doesn't know he's agreeing to the month that will dismantle everything he thought he knew. As he's forced to spend real time with Lucian — to actually see him — the ice around his contempt begins to crack. And the woman he spent four years dismissing, the woman he kept quiet and small and at the edges of his life, turns out to be the heir to a pack more powerful than his own — a woman who was never ordinary, only unseen.

"MATE!" Terk says loudly, in the middle of my Luna Ceremony with Trina. "Mate." Silja says out loud. "David? What are you doing with Ms. Mayer? Alpha Gerard is suppose to be her mate?" "What is going on here?" One of the elders asked. Trina then glares at me, "The photographer Gerard!? She's the one-night stand? She's your mate?!" This cannot be happening right now! Then the elder understood immediately and spoke loudly, "THE LUNA CEREMONY WITH TRINA IS CANCELED!" *** Silja is young, ambitious and has dreams of being a successful photography. Gerard is a successful Alpha of Night Crown and a CEO in the human world. After a chance encounter, spiked drinks, and a one night stand, Silja and Gerard intertwine their lives in a way neither thought it would happen. Now they are forced into a mate bond. Gerard resents Silja and blames her for getting in the way of true love. Silja is hurt by Gerard as her fated mate continues to reject her. There are people waiting in the dark corners and shadows waiting for them to fail. During this time, Gerard will either need to open his eyes or continue to be blind and Silja will either need to forgive or move on with her life.

Elara thought her life was perfect. Betrothed to a prince, raised by the Alpha and Luna, and days away from unlocking her wolf. But on her 18th birthday, everything shattered. Branded a liar, stripped of her name, and cast into slavery, she watched another girl steal her place as the Alpha’s daughter. Betrayed, banished, and broken, Elara was dragged into the darkness of the unknown… only to discover a deeper fate that ties her to a cursed Alpha, a buried truth, and a power she never knew she had. Her fall was only the beginning of her journey.
