The Alpha’s Bride Is Not the Luna
My breathing was still uneven when Robert’s phone lit up on the nightstand.
One new message.
"Robert, there’s thunder. I’m scared." —Sarah.
The words cut through me like ice water.
Robert. My mate. The Alpha of the Ashborn Pack. The man everyone praises as the perfect future king.
And me? I’m his Luna. Supposedly the rightful queen at his side.
But no matter the circumstance, no matter the weight of his responsibilities, the first person he thinks of is never me. It’s always her.
At the banquet, when the elders forced him to make a choice—me, his Luna, or her—the room fell into a suffocating silence.
I still remember the way my heart begged him to look at me, just once, just long enough to see what he was about to destroy.
But his answer came sharp, quick, without hesitation.
"Sarah."
One word. One name. And with it, he tore my entire world apart.
That was the moment I understood: not every betrayal needs to be shouted or confessed. Sometimes, it’s as simple as the name a man chooses to speak.
I loved him. I bled for him. But love means nothing if I’m nothing to him.
So if destiny has already been written against me… then I’ll be the one to set it on fire.
