Kayla’s POV

As soon as the door shut behind Ingrid, I let out a breath I hadn’t even realized I was holding. My fingers gripped my dress tightly, and I sank onto the edge of the bed, my heart still racing.

What had just happened?

A while ago, I had been standing half-naked in front of Alpha Adrian.

I swallowed hard, feeling the heat rush back to my face at the memory.

I had become painfully aware of the fact that I was wearing nothing but a towel. The realization had made me stiffen, my body locking up in embarrassment.

I had refused to look at him. But that hadn’t stopped me from feeling his gaze on me.

It had been intense. Heavy. Almost scorching.

Even when I had looked away, I had felt it. Felt the way his dark eyes had slowly taken me in, as if he was seeing far more than just my damp skin.

A shiver ran down my spine.

And now I was alone—but the heat from his stare still lingered.

I needed to clear my head. And I needed to get out of this room that smelt like him.

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Happy

    Adrian’s POVFor a long moment, I just stared at the door, my whole body tensing with frustration.I clenched my fists so tightly my nails bit into my palms.For the second damn time—The second time—We had almost kissed.And again—again—someone had interrupted.I had never felt so fucking frustrated over something so simple.I wanted to punch the damn wall.Instead, I forced myself to take a slow, controlled breath before snapping, “I’m not in the mood for dinner!”I was in the mood for something else I realized as my gaze flickered to Kayla's lips again.There was a long pause outside the door before the maid mumbled a quick, nervous, “Understood, Alpha,” and scurried away.I exhaled sharply, pressing a hand to my temple.Then my gaze flickered back to Kayla.She was still right there, her wide eyes darting away shyly, her cheeks flushed.But what had my focus was her lips. The way they were still parted slightly, soft and inviting.I wanted to taste them. Hell, I wanted to do more

    Kayla’s POVSomething warm was wrapped around me.I stirred, my body still half-asleep, shifting slightly against the firm heat that surrounded me.Wait.My eyes snapped open.I was in Alpha Adrian’s arms.My entire body locked up as I processed the situation.His arms were wrapped around my waist, his chest pressed against my back. One of his hands was resting on my hip, his breathing slow and deep.I felt trapped.Not in a bad way.No—definitely not in a bad way.Heat rushed to my face as I realized that at some point in the night, I must have rolled over to his side.Oh, goddess, no.I wanted to brush it off as just a silly little accident, but— That wasn’t even the worst part.The worst part was the very present and very hard length pressed against my lower back.I sucked in a sharp breath.I froze completely, my face burning.Was he—? Was that his—?Oh. My. Goddess. I couldn’t move.I knew I should move. I should be mortified by this.But instead—Instead, I had the most inapprop

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Standing ground

    Kayla’s POVI barely made it outside before I crashed right into someone.“Oof—” I stumbled back, almost falling again, when a sharp hand caught my arm.“Watch where you’re going, idiot,” a familiar icy voice snapped.I barely had time to brace myself before I looked up into the cold, disapproving eyes of Candice."Oh, this morning just keeps getting better and better." AI thought sarcastically.Just what I needed after humiliating myself in front of Adrian.Candice released my arm like it was filthy, crossing her arms over her chest as she narrowed her gaze at me. She refused to move and I realized that she had something to say to me.I sighed, already exhausted by whatever drama she was about to throw my way. “What do you want, Candice?”She scoffed, flipping her silky blonde hair over her shoulder. “I wanted to talk to you alone.”I raised a brow. “And what? Ask me about my well being? or congratulate me on getting engaged to Adrian?”Her expression darkened. “Don’t be delusional,

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    An enemy

    Kayla’s POV After my infuriating confrontation with Candice, I needed to calm down.And nothing helped clear my mind better than helping Ingrid sort out the records at the packs store.As I stepped inside, the familiar scent of parchment, ink, and old wood greeted me. Ingrid was behind the counter, scribbling something in a ledger. She looked up as soon as I walked in, and a slow, mischievous smile spread across her face.“Well, well, well,” she drawled. “Look who survived her first night with the Alpha.”I sighed, already starting to question my decision to come here. “I’m not in the mood, Ingrid.”She ignored me, closing the ledger with a soft thump. “So?” She leaned on the counter, eyes twinkling. “How was it?”I rolled my eyes and moved past her toward the back of the store, where the financial records were stacked. “Nothing happened.”“Liar.”I groaned. “Nothing. Happened.”She gasped dramatically. “You mean to tell me you spent the entire night alone in his bed, and you didn’t

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Hector's confession

    Kayla’s POV I barely had time to process what was happening before a strong, unyielding arm blocked Leo’s attack. The force of the impact echoed through the shop, making Ingrid gasp beside me. Leo stumbled back, his wrist locked in a firm grip. But it wasn’t Adrian who had come to my rescue. It was Hector. He stood between us, his expression calm—but there was an unmistakable edge of danger in his eyes. He gripped Leo’s wrist so tightly that the nobleman’s face twisted in pain. “You must be getting bold, Leo,” Hector said, his voice smooth but laced with warning. “Trying to raise a hand against the Alpha's Fiancee in broad daylight?” Leo winced and tried to yank his arm free, but Hector’s grip didn’t budge. “She’s overstepping,” Leo hissed. “Digging into pack finances like she has the right—” “The right?” Hector chuckled darkly, finally releasing him. “She’s engaged to Adrian. That gives her more right than you’ll ever have.” He stepped forward, forcing Leo to back away. “Yo

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Savior

    Kayla’s POV I stood there for a long time after Hector left, my heart pounding in my chest. “Because I’ve fallen for you.” His words played over and over in my mind, refusing to fade. Hector—Adrian’s stepbrother, the same villain I thought had tried to banish me away—had just confessed his feelings for meWhat was happening? Was this some type of trap? I let out a shaky breath, rubbing my temples. This wasn’t good. Not at all. I didn’t want any problems between Adrian and me. More than that, I didn’t want problems between Adrian and Hector Because of me. Their relationship was already complicated enough without me in the middle of it. The best thing to do now was avoid Hector. Yes. That was the only solution. I just had to keep my distance, pretend that conversation never happened, and focus on what actually mattered: the missing funds and helping Alpha Adrian. I turned back to the stack of storage records on the desk and forced myself to concentrate. The missing funds we

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Her secret

    Kayla’s POV Adrian stormed into the room with a fury that made the walls feel smaller. Behind him, several of his men followed—Connor and Logan at the front, their sharp eyes scanning the scene. His gaze locked onto me first. Then it dropped to Hector, who was still holding me. “What the hell is going on here?” he growled, his voice dangerously low. Before I could say a word, Adrian strode forward and pulled me out of Hector’s arms. His grip was firm but careful, his hands brushing over my arms as if checking for injuries. “Hector, what the fuck did you do to her?” Adrian’s voice was ice. "I swear to the goddess, if you've hurt a single hair on her body--." His body tensed in front of me, like a wall between Hector and me. I quickly shook my head, stepping between them before things escalated. “Wait! wait no! Hector didn't hurt me, He just saved me.” Adrian’s brows furrowed. His eyes scanned me again, as if only now registering what I had said. “Saved you?” His voice softened

    Adrian’s POV“Is there something wrong with your wolf?” I watched as Kayla’s face turned pink, her hands fidgeting slightly at her sides. She was flustered. That alone confirmed my suspicions. Something truly was wrong with her wolf. “Kayla,” I said gently, watching the way her shoulders tensed. “Talk to me.” She quickly shook her head. “I—I don’t know what you mean.” I sighed. “You know exactly what I mean.” Her eyes darted away. “I don’t.” I tilted my head, studying her carefully. “Logan studied your fight scene, You fought using weapons instead of your claws,” I pointed out. Kayla stiffened. “You didn’t heal as fast as you should have.” She swallowed hard. “And your scent…” My eyes darkened. “It’s not just different. It’s… incomplete.” Kayla sucked in a sharp breath. I stepped closer, lowering my voice. “Kayla, I need you to be honest with me. Is there something wrong with your wolf?” Her lips parted, but no sound came out. I could see it in her eyes—the war she w

    Kayla's POV I hadn’t realized how empty my heart would feel until the silence settled in.Days had passed—or maybe just hours—I couldn’t tell anymore. Time didn’t move the same without Adrian. Every second felt heavier, like it dragged its feet just to remind me that I was far away from him.I sat curled up on the cold cot in the far corner of the cave, arms wrapped around my knees, heart aching in a way I didn’t think was possible. I hadn’t spoken much since Hector and Ingrid brought me here. The girls were kind, but I was distant. Lost.I missed him.Goddess, I missed him.His scent. His voice. The way his arms wrapped around me like I was something precious. The way he said my name like it was his favorite word.Sleep didn’t come easily, but when it did, I dreamed of him. Always him. His voice in my ears, his lips brushing my skin, his arms holding me while the world fell apart around us.I woke up with tears on my cheeks more often than not.“You’re dreaming of him again, aren’t

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Set up

    Adrian's POV The torture chamber reeked of Xavier's blood, rust, and secrets. Xavier sat in the middle of it, chained to the chair like he had no care in the world. But his bloodied nose from where I punched him multiple times told a different story.His head was tilted back lazily against the wall to stop the blood flow.He had one leg bouncing, and that same smug smile plastered across his face like he wasn’t moments away from being torn apart again. “I’d ask if you’re comfortable,” I muttered, my voice low and venom-laced, “but I honestly don’t give a damn.” Xavier’s eyes flicked toward me, amusement dancing in them. “Adrian,” he said with mock warmth. “So tense. You really should relax. It’s not good for the heart. Or the woman you're sleeping with.” I nearly lost it right then. His casual mention of Kayla lit a fuse inside me, one I was desperately trying to smother before i personally drove out to burn down his entire pack house. “I’ll ask one more time,” I growled, step

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Arresting Xavier

    Adrian’s POVSuddenly The battlefield is silent.Too silent.My chest rises and falls rapidly as I stand in the middle of the destruction, blood staining my hands, my claws still extended, my wolf barely caged beneath my skin. Around me, my warriors are shaken but alive, their eyes darting between the few bodies of the fallen rogue like creatures—if they could even be called that.The battle field is quiet not because we were winning, but Because the moment Kayla was taken… they suddenly vanished into thin air before our eyes.Not a trace of them left.My fists clench, rage surging inside me like wildfire.Kayla was gone too though.My woman had been taken by my stepbrother and Kayla's former assistant.“Hector,” I snarl, snapping my head toward Logan. “Where the hell is Hector?”Logan’s face is grim, his body tense as he watches me carefully. “We don’t know.”A growl rips from my throat, sharp and deadly. “Find them. Now!”“We tried.” Logan’s expression hardens. “The second she was t

    Kayla’s POVPain throbs in my skull as I slowly open my eyes, my body aching like I’ve been tossed around like a rag doll. The last thing I remember is screaming Adrian’s name, reaching for him, only to be pulled away—taken by force. My heart clenches at the memory, and panic floods my veins.I jolt upright, my breaths shallow as I take in my surroundings.The room is dimly lit, the walls made of rough stone. A few small lanterns cast flickering shadows across the space, illuminating the frightened faces of young women who stand huddled together near the far end of the room. Their eyes are wide as they stare at me, like they’ve been expecting me.“Where am I?” My voice comes out hoarse, my throat raw from screaming.A rustling sound to my right makes me turn. My body tenses when I see Hector and Ingrid standing near the doorway. Hector’s arms are crossed, his expression unreadable, while Ingrid looks more hesitant, shifting her weight from foot to foot.I shove the blankets off and t

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Adrian's painful decision

    Adrian’s POV Kayla was trembling in my arms, her fingers gripping my shirt like she was afraid I’d disappear. I tightened my hold on her, pressing my lips against her temple, trying to ground her. "It’s okay," I whispered. "You’re safe." She didn’t respond. Her breathing was shallow, her entire body stiff. Something was wrong. Very wrong. I pulled back slightly to look at her face. Her pupils were dilated, her skin too pale. "Kayla," I murmured, brushing my thumb across her cheek. "Talk to me." She opened her mouth, but before she could speak, a howl ripped through the night. The pack alarm. Again! Shit. I snapped my head up, my instincts immediately on high alert. The howls multiplied, blending with distant shouts. My wolves were already gathering outside. We were under attack. For real this time. Earlier was just a warning from something that looked like Xavier.. but wasn't quite him. Kayla gasped, grabbing my wrist. "Adrian—" I cupped her face, forcing her to focus on

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Kayla's panic

    Kayla’s POV I slammed the bedroom door shut, twisting the lock with trembling fingers. My breath came in ragged gasps as I pressed my back against the door, my chest rising and falling in rapid, uneven bursts. What had I done? I had told Adrian I loved him. And worse—I had meant it. The words had slipped past my lips before I could stop them, before I could shove them back down into the deep, dark place where I kept all the things I couldn’t afford to feel. And then—like a coward—I had run as Adrian was forced to leave. But where could I run to? I belonged to him now. And that was the most terrifying part. I squeezed my eyes shut, my nails digging into the skin of my arms. I couldn’t do this. I couldn’t afford to need him. Not when I was changing. Not when I didn’t even know what I was anymore. The mark on my arm burned as if it could hear my thoughts, reminding me of what I was trying so desperately to deny. Lady Elizabeth’s words echoed in my head. "You bear their mark,

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Not Xavier

    Adrian’s POVMy heart still pounded from my situation with Kayla, but I pushed the thought aside as I raced toward the border. Logan ran beside me, his jaw tight with frustration. The moment the border guards had sounded the alarm, I knew it couldn’t be anything good."Who the hell would be bold enough to get this close?" Logan muttered, keeping pace."I don't know," I said, my voice sharp. "But if they think they can just waltz into my territory, they're about to learn a painful lesson."The moment we neared the tree line, I caught sight of a figure standing at the edge of our land. My stomach twisted into a knot.Xavier.Or at least… I thought it was Xavier.The stance, the cocky smirk—it was all the same. But something was off. His face seemed… distorted. For a split second, his features blurred, like I was staring at a reflection in rippling water. My wolf bristled, sensing something unnatural."Adrian," Logan said warily, stepping up beside me. "That—" He hesitated. "That doesn’t

    Adrian’s POVI didn’t plan on letting her go.Not tonight. Not ever.I held Kayla’s face between my hands, staring into those stormy eyes that I had come to crave more than anything else in this world. I had meant every word—I wasn’t letting her leave this room until she told me the truth.But deep down, I knew I wasn’t just talking about tonight.A dark part of me, the part that had already lost too much, whispered that I would never let her go at all.And I felt guilty for it.Kayla wasn’t some possession to be kept in a cage. But I couldn’t shake the possessiveness curling in my chest, the absolute refusal to lose her too.Not after what I’d already lost.She was shaking now, her breaths coming out in sharp, uneven gasps. Her hands clenched at her sides as if she was fighting some invisible war within herself.And she looked scared.That’s what threw me off the most.What the hell was she so afraid of?"Kayla," I murmured, my fingers tracing over her cheekbone.

    Kayla’s POVI couldn't stop thinking about last night.The way Adrian had held me. The way his hands had traced my skin, setting every nerve in my body on fire.And the way he had stopped.He had looked at me like I was something precious, something he was too scared to take before I was ready.I had never known a man like him before.Adrian was dangerous, feared, and yet with me, he was patient. Protective.I was falling for him. Hard.The realization terrified me. I had spent so long guarding my heart, convincing myself that love—real love—was a luxury I would never have again. And yet, here I was, aching for him in a way that had nothing to do with the mate bond.I needed a distraction, something to clear my mind.Which was why I was now standing outside Lady Elizabeth’s home again, my heart hammering as I raised my hand to knock.She had asked to see me privately, and though I had agreed, I wasn’t sure I was ready for whatever she had to say.But something told me I needed to hear
