Prologue

RHEA'S POV My name is Rhea, I am Fourteen years old. I have never felt my mother’s love for a single day, and that hollow feeling has only grown sharper since my father passed away. My mother seems to hunt for the smallest reasons to tear me down, while she showers my twin younger sister, Roxy, with so much love. When I was younger, I chalked it up to Roxy needing more attention because she was younger. Innocent me thought maybe that explained why I got the cold shoulder. But as I grew up, it became glaringly obvious that wasn’t the reason. It wasn’t about age or who needed what. It was about Roxy. She was the family’s golden child, the classic beauty with a crown of charisma and academic prowess to match. Meanwhile, I studied till my eyes went numb, but somehow, Roxy still managed to shine just a bit brighter, she was the beloved daughter, the girl everyone wanted to be friends with. Tonight, my mother and I had an ugly fight—again, over Roxy, as always. But this time, she struck

1. Homecoming

Four years later... RHEA'S POV The final bell rang, and as the teacher exited the class, I practically bolted out of my seat, stuffing my books into my backpack like I was running from a crime scene. My aim was to evade Yuri, the alpha’s son on loan from another pack for training. No matter how stealthy I tried to be, Yuri had a knack for finding me. When everyone else in school acted like I was invisible, Yuri had this strange habit of seeking me out when he was still here in our school. He claimed he was "intrigued" by me, but honestly, I could do without the intrigue. His attention only put a neon sign over my head that screamed “Bully Target Here.” Most of the girls in school had quickly turned mean the moment Yuri started hanging around me. Even my sister, Roxy, wasn’t thrilled; she was used to soaking up all the attention like a sponge. Suddenly, her spotlight had competition, and the only thing more terrifying than Yuri's persistence was Roxy’s irritation. Today, though, I

2. Miles

MILES' POV “One! Two! Ready! Go!” Rico bellowed over the thumping bass that filled the room, his voice competing with the music as he raised his shot glass. Evans and I downed our drinks, slamming the empty glasses on the table. I let out a sigh, glancing around at my friends who were practically buzzing with energy. Evans clapped me on the shoulder, grinning wide. “It’s good to have you back, man! Snowfall just isn’t the same without you.” “It’s good to see you two again,” I replied, matching his grin. Coming back home felt surreal after four years away. I had missed these guys. Rico leaned in; eyebrow raised with a mischievous glint. “So, tell us, Miles—found your mate yet? Bet there were some beautiful girls in the Riverwood pack.” I shook my head, feeling a bit sheepish. I knew what I was about to say would sound like a joke to them, but I didn’t care. “Actually… there is someone. Someone I met before I left.” Their eyes went wide as dinner plates. “Wait, who is this g

3. Stabbed

RHEA'S POV A sharp, searing pain jolted me awake, cutting through my sleep like a hot knife. My whole body was on fire, each limb screaming in agony as my bones twisted and cracked. I lay on the cold kitchen floor, groaning, as realization dawned: it was happening. I was shifting. It was midnight—the time when werewolves my age would meet their wolves for the first time, under the watchful eye of the full moon. I managed to crawl to the kitchen door, clutching the frame for support as my body contorted painfully. I stumbled out into the backyard, gasping for breath. The moon hung high and brilliant, casting an eerie glow over the yard. Somewhere in the distance, I heard the howls of others who were also shifting. The sound should have been comforting, but right now, every nerve in my body was too overwhelmed to feel anything other than pain. My fingers lengthened into claws, my face stretched painfully into a muzzle, and my body grew, tearing through my dress as if it were nothi

4. Another Chance

MILES' POV "You did what?" my father roared, his face clouded with disbelief and fury. "Rejected your mate? That’s unheard of. No one in our lineage has ever rejected their mate, and it’s not going to start with you." I held my ground, feeling that familiar, crushing weight he always managed to pile onto my shoulders. He had always wanted to dictate everything happening in my life. I had spent years away trying to prove that I could stand on my own, that I could make my own choices—but here he was, still pulling the strings. "It’s my choice, Dad," I said, keeping my voice steady. "It shouldn’t be!" he snapped. My mother placed a hand on his arm, and I watched as the anger drained from his face, his shoulders relaxing. It was an effect only a mate could have—their scent, their touch, instantly calming. I had felt a touch of that bond last night, even though I had fought it, I couldn’t deny what I felt from the bond. "Honey, calm down," my mother said gently. "We don’t need y

5. Bullied

RHEA’S POV Today was the last day of high school, and tonight marked a monumental occasion—Miles' coronation ceremony and his twentieth birthday. He would officially become our Alpha. Luna Lisa, in her usual graciousness, had extended a personal invitation to me. She was always kind, but ever since the whole drama with Miles and Roxy, she had gone out of her way to show compassion toward me. Not that it made the whispers any quieter. These days, people looked at me like I was the villain in this story, the “sister who tried to steal her twin's lover.” Even my mother seemed to think this whole mess was my fault. But even if we put aside who truly owned that necklace, no one seems to remember that I didn’t make myself Miles’ mate. The moon goddess had made that arrangement. Now, I have to deal with the snide remarks and looks of disdain thrown at me whenever I walk down the school hallway, or even at the market. In fact, that stigma follows me wherever I go, like a bad omen—all

6. Sealed

RHEA'S POV I sat tucked away in a corner, watching the crowd sway and spin on the dance floor. Tonight was Miles’ birthday and the long-awaited moment when he would officially take on the role of Alpha. Alphas from far and wide had shown up, along with their entourages of high-ranking pack members. Alpha Dennis, Miles’ father, was one of the wealthiest and most influential Alphas in the region—probably even beyond—so when I say this coronation was extravagant, I mean it. The whole night felt like a grand fairytale, minus any fairytale moment for me. Miles was not out yet, but his friends, Rico and Evans, were doing their best to keep everyone entertained. Since the whole mess with Roxy began, they were the only ones who still treated me kindly. It made me miss Yuri even more. Tall, handsome Yuri with his shoulder-length hair and that smile that could light up a whole room. He had been my only real friend, someone who had always told me to stand up for myself, to know my worth. B

7. Hurt

RHEA’S POV I stretched out in bed, feeling a sense of happiness, I hadn’t felt in a long while. Miles’ scent still enveloped me, meaning he was still on the bed. I could still feel his warmth beside me, the solidity of his chest, and his strong arms around me. My eyes fluttered open, and I came face to face with Miles. We were still tangled up in the sheets. But just then, he stirred. His eyes opened, and for a brief, fleeting second, he looked at me with a softness I hadn’t seen in ages. But then, clarity hit, and his gaze sharpened. “Fuck!” he hissed, pushing himself up and away from me, his face twisted in horror. “What the heck are you doing in my bed?” The warmth I had felt shattered in an instant. His reaction cut straight through me, leaving a hollow ache in its place. I had been foolish to think that one night could change anything between us. Now, our bond had only intensified, and anything from him would hurt me even more. “I’m... I’m sorry, I—” I stammered, unsure

8. A Failed Plan

ROXY’S POV “Arrrgh!” I screamed, sweeping everything off the table in one violent motion, feeling the hot surge of rage burn through me. My mother was at my side in an instant, placing a steadying hand on my shoulder. “Roxy, honey,” she said, her voice calm. “Losing your temper won’t solve anything. I know how much this means to you, but you have to keep a cool head. This isn’t the end of the world. You’ll have plenty of chances to get Alpha Miles to sleep with you.” I turned to her, frustration written all over my face. “But why didn’t this work, Mom? I’m starting to think Miles doesn’t feel the way he says he does. He’s acting strange—he wouldn’t even let me use his bathroom this morning, wouldn’t lay a hand on me, and just stayed glued to his bed!” “Maybe he was just tired, sweetheart,” my mother offered, trying to soothe me. “Being an Alpha isn’t exactly easy work. All you need to do is stay patient until you’re officially Luna of the pack.” She leaned in, her tone lower

9. Rejection Accepted

MILES’ POV I still carried the guilt of what happened between Rhea and me. It had been a few days now, and I still couldn’t bring myself to put it behind me. Knowing I betrayed Roxy like that made me loathe myself. Stepping into the role of Alpha had been nothing short of overwhelming. Endless pack meetings, mediating disputes, and now the impending decision of choosing a beta. My two best friends, Rico and Evans, were both worthy candidates, but the thought of choosing between them made my head spin. Rico, playful but incredibly reliable, had a knack for diffusing tension and keeping things organized. Evans, on the other hand, was sharp, focused, and a natural problem solver. We had never had the conversation about who would become my beta, but that wasn’t what weighed most heavily on my mind tonight. I needed to come clean to Roxy. She deserved the truth, even if it shattered her. Better it came from me than her sister, who wouldn’t hesitate to twist the knife. I stood at t
