Four Years Later They Came Crawling Back
The day my fated mate, Blake, held his mating ceremony with the pack’s true princess, Morgana, I almost did it. I almost chugged a vial of rage serum, stormed the altar, and tore them both to shreds. A murder-suicide. A fitting end.
But as my hand trembled around the vial, my phone rang.
It was the doctor from the Alliance Medical Center.
"Ma'am, you're pregnant..."
The vial slipped from my fingers. I froze.
Half an hour later, cheers erupted from the pack's Moonlight Altar.
And just like that, I, the fake princess of the Crescent Moon pack, vanished from Silvercrest City. Just as everyone wanted.
I fled a thousand miles to the Southern Alliance. I survived a rogue wolf riot and gave birth to my daughter. My own blood.
My old life was completely gone.
But four years later, they started showing up again, one by one.
“Cora, we’ve been looking for you for years. You’re alive? Why didn’t you come home?”
