The days passed slowly, and I soon found myself missing Dante more than I cared to admit.

Damn it! I knew I should talk to him, but pride held me back. What if things went wrong again? What if he didn’t want to see me? Each time I thought about reaching out, I pushed the idea away. I could handle this. I didn’t need him. But the longer we stayed apart, the more I realized just how much I craved his presence.

One evening, I was sitting in the common room, lost in my thoughts, when a commotion erupted outside. The loud shouts and chaos pulled me from my reverie. I rushed to the door and stepped outside, my heart pounding. What on earth was happening?

The sight that greeted me was shocking. A group of people had gathered around Lilly, who stood in the center, her face twisted in fury. “Someone scraped off my hair! Look at this!” she yelled, pulling her hair back to reveal patches where it had been brutally ripped out.

“What? How could this happen?” someone asked, glancing aroun

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Co president

    Ivonne's pov I took my seat and waited to see who would be the first to speak because i refused to be the first to greet them... no matter how petty that was. “Good morning,” Hector finally said though his tone was measured. The concubines turned too, each giving a polite little bow of the head. “Good morning, Lady Ivonne,” one of them said with a small, practiced smile. “It’s an honor to dine with you.” “Likewise,” I replied calmly, though the words tasted hollow.Because it was at that moment, my mind chose to notice that they all looked so freaking perfect—each one stunning and sexy in a different way. One had long black hair braided with gold thread, another had eyes so green they almost looked unreal. Their Lycan made clothes shimmered like silk water. I suddenly felt painfully aware of my plain dress and the natural look of my hair. I forced myself to push away the insecurity and sat down beside Lora, who stood quietly at the corner. I kept my eyes on my plate, pret

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    A new breakfast routine

    Authors note: Apologies, I was forced to take a break for my health, but I'm back now.Ivonne’s POV The morning light was soft but almost too bright. It streamed through the tall windows, spilling warmth over the pale sheets tangled around me. For a long moment, I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, pretending that today would be normal. Pretending that I wasn’t living in a house filled with, secrets, and people who looked at me like I they wanted me to be completely wiped off of the face of the earth. I turned to the side and exhaled. The bed was large and empty—just the way I wanted it. I’d moved moved out of Hector's room and into this one last night, despite Hector’s protests. He had argued, reasoned, and even ordered me to stay in his room because it was “safer,” --which was probably true but I didn’t care. I needed the distance. I needed my head to stop confusing safety around him with comfort, and comfort with… something else I wasn’t ready to name. The last few day

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Friend or foe?

    Ivonne's pov Despite his sarcasm, he was oddly encouraging. He would occasionally murmur, “Good call,” or “Don’t let her intimidate you,” when I dismissed a particularly arrogant woman. I caught myself feeling strangely grateful for his support — until Hector appeared at the edge of the courtyard, his presence instantly shifting the air. Sevrin stiffened beside me. I turned just in time to see Hector’s narrowed eyes on Sevrin. “You seem very invested in helping my fiancée,” Hector said coolly. Sevrin didn’t flinch. “You told me to assist her.” “Yes, but you have been overly friendly with her since you first met." I looked between them. “Oh, for heaven’s sake. He’s just helping me choose your mistresses, Hector. You could at least pretend to be grateful.” “I am grateful,” Hector said through clenched teeth. “I just find it strange how friendly my usually cold Gamma has suddenly become.” Sevrin met his Alpha’s glare evenly. “Thats because I'm her fan, I watched one of her plays

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Understanding

    Ivonne’s POV"I never wanted any of them."He repeated but I didn't believe him.Heck! I couldn’t even look at him. Not after what all that had happened. Not after the twenty women standing in the hall earlier, preening and giggling like exotic birds waiting for their turn to perch on Hector’s arm. My chest was still tight from the memory — all their perfumes, the smug looks some of them gave me, and the quiet way Hector just stood there, saying nothing.I hissed and stormed off to my room. So when he knocked softly on my door and stepped inside without waiting for an answer, I didn’t even try to hide my irritation. “What do you want, Hector?” I asked flatly, keeping my back to him as I adjusted the ribbon on my sleeve. “I need to talk to you,” he said, voice low but steady. “About what? Which of your twenty women you’re keeping?” I snapped, turning around to face him. “Or maybe you came to see if I’ve picked which one gets to share your bed tonight?” His jaw tightened, but inst

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    what?

    Ivonne’s POVSevrin’s smirk widened. “Now that’s the spirit.” But I didn't care I just needed air. Real air. Not the kind that came with perfume and tension and twenty women staring daggers into my back. I turned on my heel, brushing past Justin before anyone could stop me. My head was pounding, my heart even worse. I couldn’t stand another second in that suffocating room full of fake smiles and fluttering lashes. “Excuse me,” I muttered, not even glancing at Hector. I didn’t trust myself to look at him without saying something I’d regret. But I’d barely made it halfway across the hall before I heard his voice — deep, clipped, authoritative. “Ivonne.” I froze, my hands curling into fists. Of course. He wasn’t going to let me go that easily. “I need to talk to you,” he said, his tone calm but carrying that undercurrent of command that always made my spine stiffen. “I’m not in the mood, Hector,” I shot back, not turning around. “You’ve already done enough today.” Behind me, I

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Excuse you?

    Ivonne's pov He turned back to me, his voice lower this time. “You seem to know a lot of men, Ivonne.” I froze. “Excuse me?” He didn’t answer — just stared at me with that unreadable look that made my stomach twist in irritation. Before I could tell him exactly what I thought of his tone, Sevrin spoke again. “Speaking of men and women, we’ve got an issue that needs sorting.” I blinked. “What issue?” Sevrin crossed his arms. “The concubines.” I groaned. “Please tell me you’re sending them away from my home.” “That’s… not exactly what’s happening.” “What?” I said sharply. “Sevrin, they’re driving me insane. Half of them seem to keep parading around the hallways like models in a perfume commercial.” He lifted a brow. “That’s sort of the point.” “What point?” I snapped. Sevrin sighed. “There’s a council order. Since Hector is Alpha and you’re his Luna by arrangement, the council demands that four of the concubines be officially chosen as his permanent companions.”
