His Abandoned Luna 8. The Wolfsbane
For the first time, Kael’s carefully maintained composure cracked. He pushed up from his chair so abruptly that it scraped against the marble floor with a piercing screech. His palms slammed against the table, the impact echoing through the room like a gunshot. “Shut the fuck up!” he roared. The entire room fell deathly silent. A shiver ran through me, not from fear, but from exhilaration. The mighty Future Alpha King had lost control. I flinched, curling my shoulders inward as if I had been struck by his rage. My lower lip trembled, and I ducked my head, playing the part of the fragile, pitiful she-wolf who had been scolded for nothing more than speaking the truth. Let them see me as the wounded mate, let them whisper about how their future Luna had been humiliated in front of them all. Inside, I was smirking. The game had started, and I was winning. “Kael.” Alpha Asher’s voice boomed through the tense air, steady and commanding. “She will be your Luna. Treat her with re
Last Updated : 2025-03-24His Abandoned Luna 9. The King’s Apology
|| Lilac's POV ||The drive home was a blur of streetlights and racing thoughts. My knuckles ached from how tightly I'd been gripping the steering wheel, the leather creaking under my desperate hold. The damage was done. Kael's public meltdown, the wolfsbane scandal, the press swarming like vultures— it was all out there now, immortalized in headlines and gossip columns. And then there was me. His future Luna. The woman he'd humiliated in front of the entire kingdom. A bitter laugh nearly escaped me. How quickly the mighty fall. But beneath the anger, beneath the sting of betrayal, something else pulsed through me—relief. Because now, finally, I had my opening. While Kael scrambled to salvage his reputation, I could disappear. No more expectations. No more pretending. Just... freedom. The familiar sight of our home should have comforted me. Instead, it felt like a gilded cage I was about to break free from. I barely managed to shut off the engine before the front door f

|| Lilac’s POV ||The morning sun spilled through my curtains, painting my room in soft gold. I stretched, savoring the quiet... rare these days. The past week had left me raw, scraped thin, but I needed to pull myself together. Today was about moving forward. Then the doorbell rang. I frowned. Who the hell shows up this early? Padding downstairs, the marble floor cool under my bare feet, I hesitated before opening the door. And there he was. Kael. Of course. He stood on my doorstep, those golden eyes glinting like he’d already won something. In his hands? A massive bouquet of roses— deep red, velvety, expensive. The kind he used to bring me every time he screwed up. My stomach twisted. Back then, I’d thought it was romantic. Sweet, even. Now? I knew better. It wasn’t an apology. It was a reset button. A way to erase whatever he’d done, wrapped in pretty paper and thorns. "Good morning, Lilac." His voice was smooth, effortless. He held out the flowers like an offerin
Last Updated : 2025-03-27His Abandoned Luna 11. Found It
|| Lilac’s POV ||The days lost count, every single one with the delivery of a new over-the-top present from Kael. A diamond chain that shone like the night sky, a designer bag more expensive than most people made in a month, a jar full of exotic orchids that smelt of summer flowers, every one accompanied by a letter in Kael's lovely handwriting. "To my future Luna," the letters said, every single one of them signed with strong letters. And they made me feel this bitter, smoldering fury. I was standing in my bedroom, gazing at the new present, a velvet case containing a pair of emerald earrings that suited my eye color.My reflection before the mirror caught my attention, and I found myself unable not to notice the difference I made. The gentleness in the eyes was erased, replaced with hardness that didn't exist there before. That girl who trusted in fairytales no more existed, taking the place of a woman knowing the cost of trust."Lilac, darling," my mom yelled from down the stairs,
Last Updated : 2025-03-28His Abandoned Luna 12. The Forest’s Whisper
|| Lilac’s POV ||The house was in chaos.Flowers everywhere, servants scrambling, and my mother’s voice cutting through it all like a drill sergeant’s. “Lilac, sweetpea—ivory or gold? The emeralds or the diamonds? And the shoes, we can’t forget the shoes!”I swallowed back the urge to scream. “Whatever you think is best.”It was the same answer I’d given all week. Because honestly? I didn’t care. Not about the dresses, not about the guest list, and definitely not about the man waiting at the end of this farce.Kael.His name alone made my skin prickle. He’d been hovering around our house like a bad smell, flashing that polished smile while his gifts piled up—each one more extravagant than the last. A diamond bracelet. A vintage car. As if I could be bought.I couldn’t breathe.“I’m going for a walk.” The words came out sharp, and I didn’t wait for a response. I just walked out, ignoring my mother’s startled “Lilac—!” behind me.The woods were my escape.Out here, the air was clean—no

|| Lilac’s POV ||The grand hall was breathtaking—crystal chandeliers glowing overhead, crimson velvet drapes adding a royal touch, and tables piled high with fancy food and champagne. The air smelled like expensive perfume and roasted meat, rich and overwhelming.Every important alpha and noble in the country had come for the engagement ceremony. Laughter and clinking glasses filled the room, but I felt completely out of place—like a puppet in a show I never signed up for.I stood near the edge, my heart pounding, and caught my reflection in a gilded mirror. The girl staring back at me looked like a stranger. My ivory silk dress was elegant, my hair pinned up with tiny pearls, every detail perfect. I looked like a future Luna. But I didn’t feel like one.Mom stood beside me, her emerald-green gown shimmering, her eyes bright with pride."You look beautiful, sweetpea," she whispered, squeezing my arm. "Are

|| Lilac's POV ||The crowd erupted into cheers once more, but I barely heard them. The moment stretched endlessly, my thoughts a whirlwind of emotion. Duty. Legacy. Fate. Love. Was this truly my destiny? Or was I merely playing the role assigned to me?Kael squeezed my hand, and I turned to him. His golden eyes, filled with certainty, searched mine.Then he turned to me, his eyes filled with a warmth that made my skin crawl.“Lilac,” he began, his voice steady and confident.“From the moment I met you, I knew you were special. You are strong, intelligent, and beautiful, and I am honored to have you by my side as my future Luna. I promise to cherish you, to protect you, and to love you for the rest of my days.”The crowd erupted into applause, their cheers and whistles filling the air. I forced another smile, my heart pounding in my chest. This was it. The moment of truth.Kael reached into his pocket, pulling
Last Updated : 2025-04-01His Abandoned Luna 15. The Revelation
|| Lilac's POV ||The room was in chaos.Kael hesitated for just a second—his jaw clenched, eyes flickering with something like guilt—before he rushed to Coco’s side. He tore off his fancy coat, the kind that probably cost more than most people made in a year, and draped it over her shaking body like she was something fragile, something precious. "Coco," he said, voice rough with panic. "What happened? Are you hurt?"Before she could answer, the doors slammed open. A group of rough-looking men barged in, scanning the room like hunters. One of them pointed straight at Coco."There she is!" he barked. "Grab her!"Gasps rippled through the crowd. Kael moved instantly, stepping between her and them, his whole body tense."What the hell is this?" he demanded, voice sharp with authority. The leader, a scarred brute with a sneer, didn’t even flinch, "that little thief stole from us. We

His Abandoned Luna 36. A Night to Remember
|| Lilac's POV ||The night wore on quicker than I had realised. The fairy lights above us twinkled like stars, casting a soft, golden glow over the clearing. The air was filled with the scent of food, shrimp pasta and tiramisu, my absolute favorites. I had no idea how Alaric had found out about my preferences, but the moment he opened the picnic basket and the aroma wafted out, my stomach growled in anticipation.“Hungry, dove?” Alaric teased, his voice low and smooth as he handed me a plate. His eyes sparkled with mischief, and I couldn’t help but blush as I took it from him.“Starving,” I admitted, my cheeks heating up as I dug into the pasta. The first bite was heavenly, the flavors exploding on my tongue. I couldn’t help but let out a small moan of satisfaction, which only made Alaric’s smirk widen.“You’re adorable when you eat,” he said, his tone playful but his gaze intense. He leaned closer, his eyes dropping to my lips. “You’ve got a little some
His Abandoned Luna 35. Date in The Woods
|| Lilac's POV ||The rest of the ride home was the kind of quiet that presses against your eardrums. The sort where nobody wants to be the first to speak because then we'd have to admit how badly tonight went. I pressed my forehead against the cool window, watching streetlights blur past like fading stars.Kael's fake sincerity. Cassandra's razor-sharp smiles. And now the Nightshades playing fairy godmother? My fingers twisted in my dress fabric. None of this made sense.Our house looked different when we pulled up - the porch light too bright, the familiar red door suddenly foreign. Like coming home after a long trip to find all your furniture rearranged.Mom moved first, her keys jangling too loud in the silence. "I'll make sandwiches," she announced, already heading for the kitchen. That's Mom - when the world falls apart, she makes turkey on rye.Ezra collapsed onto the couch like his bones had dissolved. "I'm starving," he declared to the cei
His Abandoned Luna 34. The Nightshades
|| Lilac’s POV ||The evening air was crisp, carrying the faint scent of blooming night jasmine as we stepped out of the restaurant. The soft hum of the city buzzed around us, but my mind was far from the present. My thoughts were tangled in the web of the Nightshades, their name echoing in my head like a haunting melody. The girl at the counter had said it so casually, as if it were nothing, but her words had struck a chord deep within me. “Your table will always be taken care of by the Nightshades.” Why? Why would anyone like them pay for us?Dad strode ahead, his broad shoulders cutting through the cool night air as he made his way to the car.I slid into the backseat, the leather cool against my skin, and waited for the others to join. Ezra, my strong-willed, almost-eighteen-year-old brother, hopped in beside me, his youthful face set in a scowl. He had been seething throughout the dinner, his fists clenched under the table as Kael spewed his nonsense. Ezra
His Abandoned Luna 33. A Show-II
|| Lilac’s POV ||The room was silent, the weight of his words pressing down on me. I could feel the eyes of every alpha, luna, and noble in the restaurant on me, their whispers filling the air like a low hum. So this was their plan, I thought, my mind racing. To turn the tables in public, to force me into a corner."I will do anything you ask me of. I will even reject her, right now, right here," He slowly stood up.Kael’s eyes fell on Coco, who looked more frightened than ever. Her lips parted as if she wanted to speak, but no words came out.“Besides, once you are marked and mated, the bond with her will fade since they are not mated yet,” Alpha King Darius said, his tone matter-of-fact.I almost laughed. In my past life, the bond between Kael and Coco had never faded, even after I mated with him. They had already been together, their connection stronger than anyone realized. But this time, I wouldn’t make the same mistake."You have grow
His Abandoned Luna 32. A Show-I
|| Lilac’s POV || The air was thick with the mingling scents of expensive perfumes and gourmet food, the atmosphere both luxurious and suffocating. We sat at the table, the tension palpable, our fake smiles plastered on like masks. The server had just poured us one of the most expensive wines on the menu, the deep red liquid swirling in the crystal glasses like liquid fire. I took a sip, the taste rich and bold, but it did little to ease the knot of unease in my stomach. “Thank you, Benson, for obliging the request,” Alpha King Darius said, his voice smooth and composed as he addressed my father. His golden eyes were sharp, his expression unreadable, but there was a flicker of something, guilt, perhaps, or regret, that I couldn’t quite place. “Not a problem,” Dad replied, his tone polite but clipped. He leaned back in his chair, his posture relaxed but his eyes sharp. “So, what did you want to talk about?” Luna Cassandra smiled, her warm eyes turning to me. “
His Abandoned Luna 31. Dinner Table
|| Lilac's POV ||The Moon Garden didn't just hum with energy— it thrummed with it, like a living creature breathing down my neck. Perfumes too expensive to name mixed with the scent of seared steak and truffles, creating a heady cocktail that made my wolf's nose twitch. Glass walls reflected a thousand points of light—moonlight, chandelier glow, the cold glitter of diamonds around too many throats.Ezra's elbow nudged mine as we followed the waiter. "This place is crawling with alphas," he muttered under his breath.I didn't need to look to know he was right. The weight of stares pressed against my skin like physical hands."Of course it is," Dad said, too calmly. "We're in Nightshade territory now."A shiver crawled down my spine.The Nightshades.Every wolf child grew up hearing the stories. Not the sanitized ones about brave warriors— no, the other stories. The ones whispered after lights-out, where the monsters weren't mindless b
His Abandoned Luna 30. The Moon Garden
|| Lilac’s POV ||The peach dress looked good—I’d give myself that much. Soft fabric, delicate embroidery, the kind of understated elegance that screamed "I didn’t try too hard" even though I’d spent an hour agonizing over it. The pearls were a nice touch—classic, regal. A Luna’s signature.Too bad I wasn’t a Luna anymore. Which is ironic considering I wasn't anymore.I tugged at the straps, my reflection staring back with a frown. Why the hell did the Reventhorns want this dinner? The engagement was dead. The bond was ash. Kael had his precious mate now—what more could they possibly—So why did this feel like walking into a gilded trap?My phone buzzed on the dresser. Alaric’s name flashed on the screen, and my fingers hovered over it. I could call him. Should I?"Lilac!" Mom’s voice cut through my spiraling thoughts. "We’re leaving!"Right. No more stallin
His Abandoned Luna 29. A Dinner-II
|| Lilac's POV ||For a fleeting moment, I had believed I was living in that fairy tale.Kael had stood before me, a vision of power and devotion, his golden eyes filled with something I had foolishly thought was love. His voice had been steady as he vowed to cherish me forever, his hands warm as they cradled mine. I had let myself be swept away, believing that this moment, this love, was mine to keep.But then she had arrived.Coco.Her presence was like a storm cloud blotting out the sun, an omen of something dark lurking beneath the surface of my perfect day. She moved through the crowd with quiet confidence, her delicate frame wrapped in a soft peach dress that made her look even more innocent, more fragile. But I knew better. I saw beyond the demure smile, beyond the carefully placed vulnerability in her wide eyes.I should have known then, should have trusted the instinct that screamed at me the moment she stopped before me.The
His Abandoned Luna 28. A Dinner-I
|| Lilac's POV ||The engagement was broken, but the weight of it still clung to me like a shadow I couldn’t shake. I sat on the edge of my bed, my mind a whirlwind of thoughts. I should have felt relief, freedom, but instead, I felt uneasy. So much had changed, and yet, so much remained the same.My wolfwas still faint, her presence a whisper in the back of my mind. It was dangerous, if Kael or anyone else found out about my weakened state, I’d be vulnerable. And then there was Alaric. In my past life, I hadn’t met him until long after I’d mated with Kael. But this time, he was always there, a constant presence that both comforted and unnerved me. Even thinking about his name made my heart beat faster, a flutter of something I couldn’t quite name.I sighed, running a hand through my hair as I tried to push the thoughts away. My phone buzzed on the nightstand, pulling me from my spiraling thoughts. I glanced at the screen, and my stomach dropped. Kae
