I Was Never Your Only Choice
"Here's 1 million dollars. Take it, leave the Star Moon Pack, and go somewhere my son will never find you."
My boyfriend's mother looked at me with scorn as she handed over a check.
If this had happened in the past, I would have told her that I loved her son—not because he was an Alpha, not for the title of Luna, and certainly not for his family's vast fortune. I loved him because of the deep bond we shared.
I was carrying his pup. We were supposed to become mates and build a happy life together.
But now, he was about to hold a bonding ceremony with another woman. He was planning to mark her and let her bear his pup. He said it was all just to appease the Pack's elders and his parents.
What they didn't know was that as the daughter of the Alpha of the Golden River Pack, I'd never need a bond to gain status, power, or wealth.
So now that he'd chosen someone else, the only thing left for me to do was to walk away with dignity.
