Cursed Alpha's Regret
I have known since childhood that I was destined to marry Kaden, the Alpha heir of the Moonstone pack.
As the only one with the Moon-Blessed bloodline, I am the only person capable of breaking the curse that has haunted the Moonstone Alpha lineage for generations.
A century ago, the Moonstone ancestor publicly insulted a fallen female Alpha during her funeral.
He mocked her, saying, "She’s just a she-wolf. Why such an extravagant funeral? How could a woman ever protect our kind? She probably slept her way to the top."
Goddess Selene was enraged. She cast a perpetual curse: every direct Alpha heir of the Moonstone pack would develop female traits on their eighteenth birthday, regressing into a lowly Omega.
Only by mating with a Moon-Blessed wolf can the curse be lifted.
I had been in love with Kaden for years and wanted nothing more than to save him.
Maya claimed she also possessed the Moon-Blessed bloodline. Kaden tried to marry her, but I exposed her lie and stopped him.
Forced by his parents, Kaden finally made me his Luna.
After he marked me, Kaden didn’t regress into an Omega, but he didn't awaken his Alpha King bloodline either.
That same night, a heartbroken Maya went for a walk in the woods alone, where she was cornered by a group of rogues and torn to pieces.
My parents and Kaden hated me for it. They claimed I was a fraud whose bloodline was impure, which was why Kaden never truly ascended.
They were convinced Maya was the real Moon-Blessed one. They believed my jealousy and lies had killed her and robbed Kaden of his chance to become the Alpha King.
On a night of the full moon, Kaden tore my throat out in front of the entire pack. He tossed my body into a silver pool to let it corrode.
The last thing I heard was his roar: "You lying bitch! Maya’s death is on your hands!"
When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the day Kaden arrived at the Silver Moon pack to propose.
