New Aurora Teagarden

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.

"I, Hailey Moreno, reject you, Jude Castellan, as my mate." The words tasted like poison, but not as bitter as finding him in bed with my twin sister. Hailey's world shattered when her mate betrayed her with the one person who should have protected her—her own twin, Lucy. The broken mate bond nearly destroyed her wolf, but from the ashes of that pain, something darker was born: revenge. Her plan is simple and ruthless—seduce Alpha Lucian, Jude's powerful father, and make her ex-mate watch as she takes everything from him. But Hailey doesn't know that the lonely Alpha has been watching her, wanting her, for far longer than she realizes. What starts as revenge becomes something neither of them expected. Now Hailey must decide: Is she strong enough to want something real again? Or will her thirst for vengeance destroy the only chance she has at true happiness? In a world where wolves mate for life, some bonds are meant to be broken—and others are worth fighting for.

The wolves of our pack are different from most. At five years old, every pup must undergo their first shift. But my son Ash was born with a broken wolf. He couldn't complete the shift on his own. The healer said the only way to stabilize him was for my Alpha mate, Kael, to transfer fifteen percent of his power to Ash. Otherwise, Ash would die during the first shift. The Five Packs Alliance summit was approaching. Any loss of strength could put Silver Fang at a disadvantage in negotiations. Kael weighed his options and decided to postpone. He said Ash could hold on through this moon cycle — they'd do it after the summit. I begged him to perform the ritual as soon as possible. Kael gave me his word. But the summit kept getting pushed back. First, Kael's childhood sweetheart Nora said her daughter Lily had a fever and she couldn't manage alone. Kael dropped everything and stayed with them for two days. Then Nora asked to take Lily to the Northern Frost Pack's Bonfire Festival. She said Lily had never had a father, had never attended a single pack celebration, and wanted Kael to go as family. When Ash was losing his breath in my arms, I called Kael. He said: "Lily's first shift ceremony is in three days. I have to stay and guide her. Don't worry — I'll be back as soon as it's over. Ash isn't urgent. Didn't the Elder say there's still a month? Stop overreacting." Three days later, Kael rushed home. All he found was Ash's cold body.

Mein dreijähriger Sohn Ethan verirrte sich in das Gebiet der Rogues und wurde dort auf grausame Weise ermordet. Als mich die Nachricht erreichte, wurde mir schwarz vor Augen. Als ich wieder zu mir kam, hielt mein Alpha-Gefährte Alexander meine Hand fest umklammert. Seine Stimme war heiser vor Schmerz. „Ivy, ich schwöre dir, ich werde Ethan rächen. Ich werde diese verfluchten Rogues mit meinen eigenen Klauen zerreißen.“ Doch drei Tage später, bei der Beerdigung, hörte ich zufällig ein Gespräch zwischen Alexander und seinem Beta Marcus. „Alpha, ich verstehe das nicht“, sagte Marcus verwirrt. „Warum haben Sie den Rudelarzt Ethan nicht retten lassen? Er war nur lebensgefährlich verletzt. Wenn wir rechtzeitig gehandelt hätten...“ „Es war Lucas“, Alexanders Stimme war von Schmerz durchzogen. „Er hat Ethan aus Versehen in Richtung des Rogue-Gebiets gestoßen. Lucas ist nur ein Kind. Er kannte die Grenzen der Rogues nicht. Er hat es nicht absichtlich getan.“ „Hätte ich den Arzt Ethan retten lassen, hätte der Junge allen die Wahrheit erzählt. Sophia wäre ins Gefängnis gekommen, und der Rat hätte Lucas zum Tode verurteilt. Das konnte ich nicht zulassen“, fuhr Alexander fort. „Und was ist mit dem Erben des Rudels?“, fragte Marcus besorgt. „Das spielt keine Rolle“, Alexanders Tonfall wurde wieder unheimlich ruhig. „Sobald Ivy sich beruhigt hat, hole ich Lucas zurück. Wir sagen, er sei ein adoptiertes Waisenkind, und der nächste Alpha wird von Ivy selbst großgezogen.“ Also war derjenige, der meinen Sohn getötet hatte, sein unehelicher Sohn mit seiner Geliebten. Mein Sohn hätte gerettet werden können, doch Alexander opferte meinen Ethan für seinen Bastard. Ich wählte eine Nummer, die ich seit fünf Jahren nicht mehr angerufen hatte. „Papa, ich bin es. Ivy.“ „Ich habe meine Meinung geändert“, sagte ich kalt und gefasst. „Ich komme zurück, um das Königliche Rudel zu erben.“ „Und was ist mit dem Mondstein-Rudel?“ „Ich will, dass das Mondstein-Rudel vollständig von der Welt ausgelöscht wird.“

Eu soube desde a infância que estava destinada a me casar com Kaden, o herdeiro Alfa da alcateia Moonstone. Como a única com a linhagem de sangue Abençoada pela Lua, eu era a única pessoa capaz de quebrar a maldição que assombrava a linhagem Alfa da Moonstone por gerações. Há um século, o ancestral da Moonstone insultou publicamente uma Alfa caída durante seu funeral. Ele zombou dela, dizendo: — Ela é apenas uma loba. Por que um funeral tão extravagante? Como uma loba poderia proteger a nossa espécie? Ela provavelmente subiu ao topo dormindo com alguém. A Deusa Selene ficou enfurecida. Ela lançou uma maldição perpétua: cada herdeiro Alfa direto da alcateia Moonstone desenvolveria traços femininos em seu décimo oitavo aniversário, regredindo a um Ômega de baixo nível. Somente ao acasalar com uma loba Abençoada pela Lua a maldição poderia ser desfeita. Eu estive apaixonada por Kaden por anos e não queria nada além de salvá-lo. Maya afirmou que também possuía a linhagem de sangue Abençoada pela Lua. Kaden tentou se casar com ela, mas eu expus a mentira dela e o impedi. Forçado por seus pais, Kaden finalmente me tornou sua Luna. Depois que ele me marcou, Kaden não regrediu a um Ômega, mas também não despertou sua linhagem de Rei Alfa. Naquela mesma noite, Maya, de coração partido, foi caminhar sozinha na floresta, onde foi encurralada por um grupo de lobos renegados e despedaçada. Meus pais e Kaden me odiaram por isso. Eles alegaram que eu era uma fraude cuja linhagem era impura, e que por isso Kaden nunca ascendeu verdadeiramente. Eles estavam convencidos de que Maya era a verdadeira Abençoada pela Lua. Acreditaram que meu ciúme e minhas mentiras a mataram e roubaram de Kaden sua chance de se tornar o Rei Alfa. Em uma noite de lua cheia, Kaden rasgou minha garganta na frente de toda a alcateia. Ele jogou meu corpo em uma piscina de prata para deixá-lo corroer. A última coisa que ouvi foi o seu rugido: — Sua vadia mentirosa! A morte de Maya está em suas mãos! Quando abri meus olhos novamente, estava de volta ao dia em que Kaden chegou à alcateia Silver Moon para propor o casamento.

He Rejected Marking Ceremony, I Upgraded Mate The very first thing I decided to do after being reborn was to reject the marking ceremony with my Alpha mate Ethan. In my previous life, when Ethan tried to postpone our ceremony for the thirty-second time, I threatened him with the sacred laws of the Moon Goddess. Ethan eventually caved. To pacify my rage, he promised that nothing would interrupt us again. But that was the night his Omega mistress Ivy died. From that moment on, Ethan hated me with every fiber of his being. When I told him I was pregnant, he drowned me in the freezing North Sea. "You and that abomination in your belly deserve to die for her," he spat as he held my head under the water. I died in despair. But when I opened my eyes, I was back at the altar. Ethan looked impatient. "Selena, Ivy says her chest hurts.. We need to postpone the mark again." He expected me to beg. Instead, I unclasped the ceremonial collar and threw it in his face. "Go to her. I quit." Ethan sneered, "Stop acting. Without my scent, you’ll be back crawling on your knees in a week." He didn't know that an hour later, I was knocking on the door of his mortal enemy—Damon, the Tyrant of the North. When I posted a photo of the Winterborn Alpha’s ring on my finger with the caption "Upgrade my mate," Ethan went mad…

Empat tahun menikah, suamiku tak pernah sekali pun menemaniku ke tempat kencan yang sedang viral. Katanya aku norak, suka ikut-ikutan tren. Namun begitu cinta pertamanya pulang ke tanah air, dia justru tak sabar mengajak wanita itu mendaki gunung yang konon dipercaya bisa membuat pasangan bertahan hingga tua. Aku pun memutuskan untuk bercerai, lalu pergi menjalankan misi bantuan ke Lunaria. Namun, mantan suamiku justru mengejarku hingga ke sana. Di tengah reruntuhan, dia menangis sambil menggali tanah, mencari jasadku ....

I loved the pup my parents adopted so deeply that I cared for him as if he were my own son. At his slightest request, I willingly braved the storm to search the cliff edges for the plant he needed for tomorrow's assignment. Just as I stumbled toward them, battered and disheveled, I heard him secretly call my sister "mama, and call my mate "Dad”. It turned out my beloved Alpha mate had been cheating all along. He said it was too early for us to have pups, then turned around and started a family with my own sister. And my parents had known all along. They even wanted to force me to step down from my Luna position. The pup I cherished like my own heart cursed me with the most vicious words. Looking at them, I laughed through my tears. They didn't know I was already dead. The Moon Goddess had shown mercy—if I could receive one genuine declaration of love within these seven extra days, I could return to life. But they all wished for my death. I granted their wish. So why did they all regret it when the pack enforcers asked them to identify my body?

Lors de ma cérémonie d'union, la demi-sœur d'Alpha Derek, Victoria, est arrivée dans une robe cérémonielle de Luna à 30 millions d'euros, affirmant que notre meute ne pouvait pas se le permettre. Victoria m'a poussée dans le feu sacré, et alors que les flammes brûlaient ma peau, Derek m'a hurlé, m'accusant d'avoir gâché la cérémonie et de l'avoir humilié devant tout le monde. Ils sont partis ensemble pour leur lune de miel – celle que j'ai payée de ma propre poche. Des loups de la meute rivale m'ont encerclée. Ma louve ne pouvait pas se transformer, à cause de la grossesse. Par notre lien télépathique, j'ai supplié Derek de m'aider. Mais il m'a bloquée… pendant qu'il embrassait Victoria sur une plage des Maldives. Les griffes de l'Alpha rival ont éventré mon ventre, et mon enfant à naître a été déchiqueté. Derek est revenu en larmes, m'implorant de lui pardonner. Comme une idiote, je l'ai fait. Mais ce qu'il ignore, c'est que je suis l'héritière Alpha de la meute la plus puissante des Territoires du Nord. Rompre notre lien d'âmes ne suffira pas. Je vais tout lui prendre.
