Rebirth: In the arms of my Ex's Uncle
Vivian Caldwell gave up everything for Luca Moretti—her dreams, her independence, and ten years of her life. As the heiress to the Caldwell fortune, she built his empire, enduring his family’s abuse and his emotional neglect. But when she catches him red-handed with his first love, her world shatters. Confronting him only leads to more heartbreak when Luca cruelly throws her from a balcony, leaving her for dead.
But Vivian wakes up in the past, years before her death, with one clear goal—revenge. This time, she won’t be the naïve woman sacrificing everything. She’ll take back her power, her fortune, and her life.
The elusively attractive Dante Moretti, Luca's uncle, becomes her greatest ally—but on one condition: she must marry him.

Chapter: Chapter 12Moonlight spilled across Dante's desk, turning everything silver-edged and strange. Midnight, and I wasn't supposed to be here. The house felt different at this hour—too quiet, too empty. But his words from earlier kept echoing: "She can't know yet."His office smelled of him—expensive cologne and old books. The built-in shelves held volumes of corporate law, family photos I'd never seen before, a single photo frame turned face-down. Everything else stood with military precision.The desk drawer slid open silently. Private letters. Bank statements. A folder marked "River Incident - 2015." My hands shook slightly as I opened it.Inside: a police report about the attack. Medical records from his hospital stay. But something was off about the dates. The investigation had begun before the attack happened.The laptop sat closed beside the folder. I'd watched him work on it countless times, fingers moving across keys, screen angled away. Always careful. Always protected. Whatever was happen

Chapter: Chapter 11The forty-third floor bathroom at Vanguard Corp had become my second office. 6 AM, and I'd already memorized every detail of the marble tile pattern. Morning sickness was a misnomer—it lingered all day, like an unwelcome houseguest.When I emerged, Dante's office smelled of fresh ginger tea and something else—toast, maybe. He'd transformed one corner of his desk into what looked like a pregnancy survival station."Try these." He pushed a plate of crackers toward me. "They're supposed to help.""You've been researching again.""The reviews were convincing." He turned back to the spread of documents before him. "How are you feeling?""Like death warmed over." I settled into my chair, eyeing the tea warily. "But I'll live."His lips quirked. "Good. Because we need to discuss the Thomson merger."I reached for the financial projections, letting muscle memory guide me through the familiar numbers. The same ones I'd seen destroy Luca's company in another life."You're certain Luca will purs

Chapter: Chapter 10The gravel crunched under the car's tires as we pulled up to James's mansion. Through the windows, I could see the dining room lit up—the same room where I'd once served coffee while Clarissa critiqued my pour. Ten years of memories pressed against the glass."We don't have to do this," I said.Dante switched off the engine. "Yes, we do." He turned to look at me. "They need to see you're still standing."I tugged at my black dress. Twelve weeks, and already nothing fit properly. The fabric clung to the slight curve I was trying to hide."Stop fidgeting," Dante said quietly. "You look perfect."His certainty steadied me, even as my stomach churned—morning sickness, nerves, or maybe both.The butler—not Thompson, they'd fired him last year—opened the door with practiced efficiency. No warmth in his greeting. The Morettis went through staff like other people went through paper towels. I remembered Thompson's last day, how he'd slipped me my favorite tea with trembling hands.Clarissa hel

Chapter: Chapter 9The buzzing of my phone worked its way into my dreams. I reached for it blindly, squinting at the screen. 6:17 AM. The notifications kept coming, each one lighting up the dim room.27 missed calls. 43 text messages. 15 news alerts. 8 emails marked urgent.I sat up slowly, switched on the bedside lamp. The guest room at Dante's penthouse was still unfamiliar—all grey silk and chrome, nothing personal yet. My finger hovered over the first notification.The image loaded. I blinked, certain I was still dreaming. There I was, outside Provocateur nightclub, my black dress hitched high. A man's arm circled my waist, his face conveniently turned from the camera. The timestamp read March 15th, 2023."That's not..." I scrolled further. More photos. Me at the Four Seasons bar, leaning into another man's space. July 2023—the week I'd been in Hong Kong for the Asian merger. Another showed me getting into a car, a different man's hand on my back. September 2023."No, no, no." I opened my messages.

Chapter: Chapter 8I stood in Dante's office doorway that morning, watching him read through contracts. He didn't look up, but his fingers stopped moving across the keyboard."About last night," I started.He waited. Ten seconds. Twenty. The silence stretched between us like a living thing."Would you like to sit?" he asked finally.I gripped the doorframe. "I need to tell you something."More silence. Patient. Undemanding."I—" The words stuck. "I need to check something first."He looked up then. "Take your time."I retreated to the kitchen. Cooking had always helped me think, even in Luca's house where Clarissa criticized every meal. The familiar motions might help order my thoughts.I found the recipe card while unpacking kitchen boxes. It was tucked into an old cookbook, the paper soft and stained. Sophia Moretti's handwriting flowed across it: Rigatoni alla Vodka. Below, in different handwriting: More vodka. Less cream. - L.Luca had mentioned this dish once. "Nonna taught all the wives to make it

Chapter: Chapter 7The room was still dark when I opened my laptop. 4:47 AM. Sleep had become a stranger these past few days. I typed in the search bar: "early pregnancy symptoms." Incognito mode—some habits die hard.Three pregnancy tests sat lined up on my bathroom counter. I'd driven across the city before dawn, stopping at different pharmacies, not wanting to face the same cashier twice. First Response. Clear Blue. EPT. All positive. The empty boxes scattered across the marble told a story I wasn't ready to read.My phone lit up. Dante."Hey." His voice was soft, warm—a tone I was starting to recognize as just for me. "Want to grab breakfast?"I pressed my forehead against the cool bathroom mirror. "Can't. Migraine.""Do you need anything?""No, I just..." I swallowed. "I need to sleep it off."He was quiet for a moment. "Call me if you change your mind."The OB-GYN's waiting room felt too bright, too real. Pale green walls. Black and white photographs of newborns. A couple sat across from me—her ha

Return of The Rejected Omega
Five years ago, Stella escaped the very pack that should have protected her but instead wanted her dead. Rejected by her mate, Silas, and framed for a crime she didn’t commit, she fled with nothing but the clothes on her back and a newfound power that terrified everyone—including herself. Now, living in the human world, she’s tried to leave the past behind.
But when Silas shows up with an impossible revelation—no one in their pack has shifted since the night she left—Stella is forced to confront the truth. The pack believes she’s tied to the curse threatening to destroy them. With enemies closing in, Silas asking for her help, and unwanted feelings rising from the dust, Stella must decide: can she trust the man who betrayed her, or will she watch her old world burn to the ground?
This time, she holds the power—and she’s no longer the girl who ran.

Chapter: Chapter 80I'd heard enough. I needed to see what I was dealing with before bursting in. Near the ceiling was a ventilation grate. I jumped, grabbed the edge, and pulled myself up. The metal groaned under my weight but held. I peered through the slats.The room beyond was larger than the others, clearly the main lab. Scientific equipment lined the walls—centrifuges, computers, machines I didn't recognize. In the center was a metal table, and strapped to it was Silas.My breath caught in my throat. He was naked except for a cloth draped over his hips, his body covered in fresh cuts and burns. Silver-infused needles pierced his arms and chest, connected to tubes that ran to collection bags hanging beside the table. The bags were already half-filled with dark red blood.Logan stood at a workstation, examining something on a computer screen. He'd removed his suit jacket and rolled up his sleeves, looking like a fucking corporate exec taking a casual Friday. Angela sat in a chair nearby, one hand res

Chapter: Chapter 79I didn't go back to the pack house. There wasn't time.The fading scent trail led northeast, toward the old industrial district. I followed it at a dead run, not bothering with stealth. Logan had given me twelve hours, but the silver-laced blade he'd pressed against Silas's throat would still be burning, still be poisoning him. Every minute counted.That tiny thread of our broken bond pulled me forward like a compass needle. I could feel Silas's pain—distant, muffled, but there. It had surprised the hell out of me when our bond snapped partially back during the attack. Five years of nothing, and now this. Fucking inconvenient timing.I stuck to the woods when I could, avoiding the roads where someone might spot a blood-covered woman sprinting through the night. The last thing I needed was human interference. Luckily, at three in the morning, even the occasional passing car didn't slow down.The industrial district loomed ahead, a collection of abandoned warehouses and factories that h

Chapter: Chapter 78The tunnel was narrow, barely wide enough for two wolves to walk side by side. The walls were rough-hewn stone, occasionally reinforced with rotting timber supports. Water dripped somewhere in the distance, and the air smelled of damp earth and mold. And blood. Fresh blood.We found the first body about fifty yards in—a young pack member named David. I'd seen him at training sessions, eager to please, always trying to impress the older wolves. Now his throat was torn out, his eyes staring sightlessly at the tunnel ceiling. He couldn't have been more than eighteen.Liam made a pained sound beside the body. I placed a hand on his trembling shoulder."We keep moving," I said, my voice harder than I intended. "We'll come back for him after."The tunnel forked ahead, splitting into three separate passages. I closed my eyes, focusing on my senses. The smell of chemicals and wrongness was stronger in the center tunnel."This way," I said, pointing.We moved deeper, the ceiling growing lower

Chapter: Chapter 77Screams tore through the darkness, yanking me from sleep.Not nightmare screams—I knew those too well by now—but real ones. The wet, gurgling kind that meant someone was dying, and they were close. Too close.My limbs wouldn't fucking move. Heart pounding, lungs burning, but I couldn't even lift a finger. Couldn't blink. Sweat soaked the sheets under me while the screams got louder.Get up.Rona's voice cut through the fog in my head.GET UP NOW.Spots clouded my vision. I realized I hadn't breathed since the screams started. My lungs hurt.STELLA!I finally gasped for air, my body responding at last. I fell off the bed, shoulder hitting the floor hard. The pain shocked me alert. Adrenaline kicked in, my hand shaking as I grabbed the wall and pulled myself up.More screams, now closer, and beneath them a sound from below—stone grinding against stone. The tunnels. Someone was coming through the tunnels.I took one step toward the door, then my brain fractured. The hardwood under my fee

Chapter: Chapter 76The hours before sunset passed in a blur of preparations. After Silas left to investigate the tunnel entrance, I forced myself to eat, knowing I'd need my strength for whatever came tonight. My body still ached from the wolfsbane withdrawal, muscles trembling occasionally as the last traces worked their way out of my system.I had just finished showering when a hesitant knock sounded at my door. I opened it to find a teenage girl, maybe sixteen, shifting nervously from foot to foot."Alpha Morrigan asked if you could come to the training hall," she said, eyes downcast. "Some of the younger wolves want to try shifting before..." She swallowed hard. "Before tonight."My first instinct was to refuse. These weren't my problems. This wasn't my pack. But the fear in the girl's eyes struck something in me—the memory of my own desperation to shift, years of failure and humiliation."Fine," I said. "Give me five minutes."The training hall was in the east wing of the pack house, a large open s

Chapter: Chapter 75As I turned to leave, she called out: "One more warning, sister. The bond renewal connects more than just your bodies. For the silver-blessed, it creates a channel through which power flows both ways. Be careful how much of yourself you surrender tonight."The guards locked the door behind me as I left, my mind analyzing what might be truth versus manipulation in Angela's claims. The warning about the tunnels seemed specific enough to be credible. And her fear of the Director had felt genuine—perhaps the only genuine emotion I'd ever seen from her.I headed back through the corridors, processing Angela's warnings. As I turned a corner, a commotion from the main entrance caught my attention.Several wolves rushed past me toward the command center, expressions grim. I followed, arriving at Silas's office just as a patrol leader was reporting."We've captured a Silver Claw scout at the northern perimeter," he said, breathing hard. He extended a small bundle of papers covered in what look

We can take over the world and no one would ever be able to stop us. You are a star Witch.”“You're my brother,” I said, still in shock as that was true. I had found that out but myself.“Call me Edward,” he said causing my jaw to drop.“What?”“My name is Edward.”“Well Edward I don't know what to do concerning you. You are my brother?! That's crazy. My parents, I mean, our parents never told me that they gave birth to a boy.”“That's probably because they didn't want you to be any sadder If they told you that your twin brother is missing.”“Twin brother?” I said, feeling shocked a second time.“We're twins?!” I asked.“Yes,” he nodded, “And stop acting so surprised everytime, it's annoying.”“I see.” I answered, but then I said, “We're really siblings. That is amazing. And not amazing at the same time. If you knew that we were related all this

Chapter: CHAPTER 129Alexa's POV“I don't know what to believe.” I said.“I'll leave you to it.” He said and turned around to leave. It was then that I remembered what exactly that I came here for. I couldn't let the death of the white wolf be in vain. Also, Zaria was dead. And there was nothing that I could do to ever bring her back. So now my focus should be on my pack, Deep into the woods and how to make it prosperous again without any interference from the shadow Wolves.“Wait,” I said causing the Shadow Wolves leader to halt in his steps.“What?” He asked before looking at me.“If you don't have any magic then how come you don't react to my magic?” I asked.“Oh,” he turned to me. “Ever since I was little, I always carry a little pendant with me which makes me immune to magic. I don't know who gave it to me but somehow it always works and protects me when I'm in danger. It's like a little pocket charm.” He said. “By the way,” I said, “I want to you to stop attacking Deep into the woods.” “And what w

Chapter: CHAPTER 128Alexa's POVI raised a hand up in the air in surrender. “I'm not here to hurt anyone, I am here to talk to your leader.” I said, causing the werewolves to look amongst each other.“Who are you, fools?” One of the werewolves yelled out loud.I said at the top of my lungs, “I am the Alpha of Deep into the woods and I have come here to see your leader,” I said out loud causing the werewolves to look amongst each other.I continued, “I know that you are the Shadow Wolves and that you have beef with my pack but regardless of all of your trespasses. I have come here to announce a truce with your leader.”One of the Shadow Wolves scoffed, “Attack!”They all sped towards me and I stretched my hands forth causing magic to explode out of me causing them to all fall back to this ground with blood gushing out of their mouths. They were all dead.I looked to the while wolf beside me and it howled. I stepped over the dead bodies and continued to walk ahead over to see more shadow Wolves rushing tow

Chapter: CHAPTER 127Alexa's POVPhillip looked nervous so I whispered unto him, “Raise up your head. This moment will determine how long you will be respected by everyone.”He did as I said and raised his head up. I focused my gaze on the crowd. “Everyone, I would like you to put a hand together for Phillip North. He put his life as risk to find out the truth that Alpha Nate was with the enemy. Because of him we know who our enemies are and who our friends are.” I said and they all applauded him.“I would also like to announce to you all that Phillip would be the Beta of Deep into the woods, I hope you all listen to him as well as you listen to me.” I said. There was a little bit of hesitation amongst the crowd. After all, most of them were aware of what had happened in the pack with Zaria North. However, some clapped and I instantly knew that Phillip would have some problem controlling the people and ruling them but I also knew that he would have to prove himself. Only then would he be accepted.“Every

Chapter: CHAPTER 126Alexa's POV I was in my office working but then I summoned Martha and asked her to call me Phillip.She went on to carry my request and a few minutes later, Phillip was in my office.“You called me, Alpha?” He said with caution.“Yes, I did.” I said before gesturing for him to sit down. He did as I urged with his eyes widened in anticipation for what I would say next.“What's the problem?” He asked.“I choose today to officially make you my beta.”“But why what's the hurry?”“I just thought about it and to be frank with you, I don't like how everything in my pack is moving so I decided that I would go to meet the leader of the shadow Wolves. That's the only way that the pack would ever make progress. I'm tired of people dying on me.”“Alpha, that is dangerous. Is there anyone else you've spoken about this to?”“Just you, Phillip.”Phillip cleared his throat, “How is the baby doing?”“Good. But the most important thing here isn't me or the baby. It's the pack.

After all he said about Zaria North?I stood up from the chair.“Arthur, you said Zaria killed your son and now you're saying you don't think she killed your son?” I said, feeling absolutely disgusted by what Arthur was saying.“Now that Zaria is dead you're changing your mind?”“It's exactly because she's dead that I think she didn't kill my son. How could she do that and kill herself, it doesn't make sense at all to me!”“What makes sense then Arthur, tell me?”“I think Zaria was controlled before she died. One of the warriors told me that she died during the war but she was brought back to life. I didn't believe him but now that she's dead, I think he might be onto something.”“She told me something similar before she died but I…” I trailed off, while thinking deeply. “I don't know.” I said while exhaling.
