Nala Rey Novels & Stories

The mark on my shoulder pulsed under moonlight. Not pain, something worse. It whispered my name in a tongue I’d never learned. “Do you hear it too?” Dax asked, voice shaking. I nodded. The Moon wasn’t speaking to me anymore. It was commanding me. Lira entered the war chamber in crimson, not mourning. “The Luna throne sits empty,” she purred. “And the Alpha hesitates. Perhaps I should rule.” The elders didn’t laugh. They listened. She smiled at Vaeron, then looked at me. This wasn’t politics.

Before they bowed down to her, That stupid thing, that runt, the woman who was in charge of everything that should have been mine, they just bowed down to her. Sienna De Luca. Omega. Nobody. Now the Luna. How could a person like her just become a Luna when she was nothing more than an Omega? A lowest rank, one that he could use as a consort to breed him children. I dug my nails into the soft leather of the armchair, unable to stop the rage bubbling beneath my skin. It burned like acid in my veins, every second of it replaying over and over in my head. He chose her. Publicly.

I said back. "Wow, you're up early. Are you going to work already? It's not even working hours yet," she said, glancing at her wrist watch. I shrugged my shoulders. "I have to. I don't want to be buried at work." "Oh, workaholic. By the way, I'm Miriam Idica, but you can call me Miri." I smiled. "I'm Nala Kaydence Cabral, but Nala will do.” "Do you have any mixed blood? Like, a mix of different races?"

But the woman looked more mature, like a queen who had lived for a thousand years, and her clothes were made of starlight, and her eyes were glowing with that same golden fire. "Who are you?" Naelis asked, her voice sounding small. The woman smiled, and the whole balcony felt warmer. "I am Nala," she replied. "I am your wolf, Naelis…I am the part of you that carries the ancient power of the primordials." Naelis gasped, as she had always known she had a wolf, but she had never talked to her like this. Nala stepped closer and took Naelis’s hands. "I have brought you to this place because it is time, Naelis. It is time for the great prophecy to come true.

Their faces were pressed against the cold floor as their bodies shook violently. Several female werewolves who used to know me were trembling so hard their teeth chattered. “S-Selena… the Alliance’s strongest Alpha King, Lord Lucas, is your mate?” “The steward elder even performed a kneeling salute! And Leo called her his mom! She must be that mysterious Luna Queen everyone talks about, the one Lord Lucas treasures above all!” Gasps spread through the room again. I found the noise irritating, so I simply gave a faint smile.

Viktor, who was back at their side after, broke the news of their victory to those inside the pack. Kaylee, Katida, and Kamala bowed at the sight of Tyler and Lana, Katida found it difficult to bow for Lana but with the unfavorable glare radiating from Kaylee, she bowed. “She is our Luna. A powerful one at that. Don't you dare disrespect her,” Kaylee cautioned Katida through their mindlink.

⸻ (Nikolai’s POV — Third Person) She shouldn’t have looked that good. Nayla was supposed to fade. Disappear. He’d done everything to make sure of it. Every application she sent? Every reference she submitted? He made calls. Blocked them all. It wasn’t personal— Not really. It was just easier if she stayed dependent. Quiet. Forgotten. But she wasn’t. She was glowing. Feral and soft, all at once. And when she said she had a job— his blood boiled. He’d given Alara the Luna title.

The door swung inward. Nala was sitting on the narrow bed inside, legs crossed, posture stiff, chin lifted like she was still in a palace lounge and not under containment. Her hair was still perfectly arranged. Her clothes were still expensive. Even her anger looked styled. That was the thing about people like her, privilege made them believe reality would always adjust itself to keep them comfortable. She looked up, and when she saw me, her eyes lit with a fury that had nowhere to go for days. “You,” she spat.

Nala said boldly, and I smiled at her. "Well, Nala. I am a Gamma, and I can hold my own. Cindy is an Omicron and fights better than most Warriors; Racheal is a tough cookie too. They couldn't walk all over us even if they wanted to." I said, and she rolled her eyes very disrespectfully. I held down my anger and tried to tolerate her. The girl was a walking menace. I did not know what was going on in her head, and she was being really unbearable.
