My Ascent, Your Descent
I, Milly Gomez, had hidden my identity as the Lycan King's heir and joined the Boulder Pack as part of my training.
The pack's Alpha, Andy Shaw, and I fell for each other during that time. He cherished me so openly that the whole pack envied me.
He promised me a grand mate bond ceremony.
I waited for five years, but it never happened.
I found out later that the Council of Elders had never thought I was good enough. To them, I was just an orphan who came from nowhere.
I didn't want to make things harder for Andy, so I decided to tell him the truth that I was the Lycan King's daughter. Before I could, Andy started disappearing for days at a time.
Then, on the ninety-ninth night he failed to come home, I received a message from another she-wolf. [I'm carrying Andy's pup. I will be his only Luna. As for you, you're nothing but a plaything he uses to satisfy his lust!]
I found out later that the she-wolf was Jane Brooke, the daughter of the Shadow Pack's Alpha.
Andy had been sleeping with her every night he disappeared.
So, I did something behind his back too.
I quietly prepared my plan to return home.
It was time to leave.
