Lilian took a sigh of relief when she realized they were already outside the Balkans. She was certain the wolves would not go after them, so they were safe for now. However, her thoughts drifted on Morgan. She was certain it was him, but how did he know she was in the Balkans? The question lingered in her mind."Where are we going, dear?" Aurora asked."To Silverstone, Mom. I want you to meet my adoptive parents, and of course Liam. I'm sure he’d be happy to see you," Lilian replied."By the way, the one who helped us earlier was indeed a strong wolf. It reminded me of Alpha Morgan. But it could not be him. He went missing a year ago, and everyone in the pack believed that he was dead."Lilian was just silent while waiting for her mom to say something more. She could not tell her yet that Morgan also lived in Silverstone and was his neighbor.“Do you still remember him, dear?” Her mother’s question took her by surprise.“No, Mom,” she lied, though she knew it wasn’t true. “It was eigh
Lilian Grey, an Omega, moved through the busy halls of the Blue Moon Packhouse like a shadow, her head bowed, her presence barely noticed. Being the daughter of a lowly Omega, she had always felt like an outsider. Her father had abandoned her, for a reason she did not know.After her mother's mysterious death, Aurora took care of her. She was five then and still could not understand the rumors throughout the pack about her family background. Whenever Lillian passed, she heard people say, "She has a cursed bloodline.They believed the curse was the reason her mother died unexpectedly, and the worst thing was that they jumped to the conclusion that anyone who was connected with her would be doomed to share the same fate. No one knew the curse's origin, but it was said to go back generations, long before Lilian’s time. Lilian had no memory of her mother’s final days, but the rumors weighed heavily on her. Even as a child, she could sense the cold treatment of others. The way parents wou
When Lilian woke up in the morning, she felt an inexplicable pain like something in her had torn apart. She looked around and realized she was inside the library, lying naked on the sofa bed. What had she done? She tried to recall what happened until everything had sunk into her mind. "Oh my..." she murmured. She was with Morgan last night. Her fingers absentmindedly traced the bedsheet, and her heart clenched as she saw droplets of blood stained on it. The sharp contrast of crimson against the white fabric served as the sole evidence of the night she had surrendered everything. She couldn't believe she had given her virginity to Morgan for just one night. It was a moment of weakness and oblivion, yet she had no regrets. In fact, she felt a sense of happiness in her heart. However, another reality hit her that made her feel nervous. She could still feel Morgan's touch, his intense gaze that seared into her soul, his scent that filled her senses, meant one thing—he was her m
Lilian, after Morgan's rejection was physically and emotionally drained. She felt so exhausted and she knew it was all because of the severed mate bond. Her wolf Elara, constantly whimpered within her, weakened by the loss of the bond that was supposed to bring them closer to their fated mate.However, she had to be strong. She would not let this heartbreak pull her down. She had to continue living her life no matter how hard it was for her. She was still hoping that somehow Morgan would see her worth and accept her as his Luna.She returned to her usual routine in the villa as one of the servants of the high-ranking members of the pack. One evening, as the last rays of the setting sun kissed the horizon, while Lilian was dusting off the shelves in the living room, she heard muffled voices and laughter coming from the hallway. The voice was quite familiar to her. Out of curiosity, she headed towards the hall, to find out who it was. She was shocked when she saw Morgan and Samantha, int
Morgan sat alone in his room, staring blankly at the ceiling as sleep evaded him. His mind was occupied with thoughts about Lilian. He knew she was his mate, from the moment he laid eyes on her that night. However, he just ignored it thinking that it was due to the effect of the wine. He was tipsy that time but he could feel the connection between them. The pull of the mate bond was impossible to ignore. His heart raced when he kissed her, and even when he claimed her fully, it felt like time had stopped. But when the Wolf Council told him to marry her, his great pride prevailed. He had in mind, how someone of low status could become his Luna. Unable to sit still any longer, he rose from the bed, pacing the room in frustration. Wanting to ease the heavy burden he was carrying in his heart, he grabbed a bottle of whiskey from the mini-fridge and poured some of it into his ornate glass. He brought it straight into his mouth, hoping it would minimize the guilt and confusion gnawing at h
As Morgan sat at the dining table, his father's deep voice cut through the soft clatter of dishes. "Morgan, listen. It's time for you to settle down. You need to have a Luna who will assist you in your leadership. Besides, your mother and I can't wait any longer to see our grandchildren." His father’s gaze was firm but expectant as if this was something that had been discussed many times before and Morgan’s refusal could no longer be tolerated. Morgan shifted uncomfortably in his chair, pushing the food around on his plate without really eating. He had heard this conversation too many times, and every time it came up, the pressure mounted. But this time, it felt heavier than he expected. "We've always told you about this but you have so many excuses, But this time, we won't accept a 'no' answer," Lucas said in finality. Morgan looked at his father and all he could see was the sincerity of his expression. He shifted his gaze to his mother on the opposite couch. "Your father i
Lilian cried with both arms wrapped around her knees in a corner of her small bed. The pack treated her coldly, Morgan dumped her, and Samantha threw a string of insults and humiliation. The situation could not have worsened than this, and only was going to get worse. She was the damsel in distress, pretending everything had been alright. There was suddenly a soft knock on the door, and Aurora walked in without waiting for an answer. She moved without a sound, footfalls little more than whispers against the floor. "Lilian, sweetheart," Aurora said gently as she hugged her. She felt so much love for the girl she had raised as her own. "You have to stay strong. You’ve always been strong, Lilian. I know this is tough, but you can’t let it destroy you." Lilian pressed her face against Aurora’s shoulder, finding some comfort in the older woman’s embrace. But even as she held onto Aurora, the pain remained."Everyone dislikes me, Mom. They don't want me to be Morgan's Luna, especial
Morgan and Samantha’s wedding was set to coincide with the first emergence of the full moon, exactly one month away. The entire Blue Moon Pack was buzzing with preparations, though whispers about Morgan's sudden change of heart regarding his destined mate still lingered. For Lilian, the weight of Morgan’s rejection pressed down like an unbearable burden. Each night, she cried herself to sleep, the bond between them aching in her chest, a constant reminder of the love she had lost. Her appetite faded, and she often skipped meals, lost in the whirlwind of heartbreak and uncertainty.Aurora, her adoptive mother and the only solace she had in this world watched her deteriorating state with growing concern. "Dear, you need to be strong," Aurora urged one morning as Lilian lay listlessly in bed. "It’s not the end of the world for you."Lilian forced a half-smile, trying to reassure her mother. "I’m fine, Mom," she whispered, her voice lacking conviction.But just as she spoke, a sudden wave

Morgan finally decided to travel to the Balkans. He was certain that his dream was real. Lilian might be in danger, and he thought it would be better to trust his instinct this time. "Leaving at this hour, Aron?" Alice spoke from behind."Yes, I need to do something very important, but sorry, it's confidential," he responded while preparing things for his travel."Are you coming home right away?""I am not sure, Alice. Please take care of Jenny," he said, then walked towards the door.His mind was filled with nothing but Lilian. He wanted to reach the Balkans as quickly as possible, because any delay could put her in danger. He was hoping he would arrive in time to save her, because he couldn't forgive himself if anything bad happened to her.After a few hours of travel, he arrived in the Balkans. It had been a year since he had been there. He couldn't help but remember his life in the Blue Moon Pack. He wished he hadn't made that mistake with Lilian. Maybe he would still be the Alph
Lilian and Aurora were able to escape the packhouse, but they could not easily flee from the Balkans because the borders were heavily guarded by the Gamma guards. Getting through would be difficult, and they would likely be caught by members of the Blue Moon Pack. They had no choice but to stay in the dense forest for a while and wait for the right time to cross the borders. "I wish you hadn't come here, dear. It's better to remain a slave rather than putting your life in danger," Aurora said, her voice filled with concern. "What will happen if they catch us?" she sighed."Mom, I'm not afraid of them," Lilian responded. "Argos and Samantha are not easy to deal with," Aurora took a deep breath. "Samantha orchestrated everything for you to be kicked out from the packhouse. She accused you of murdering her child, but the fact is, she wasn't pregnant at all. And the worst, she hired a fake talisman to give a false prophecy regarding the downfall of the Blue Moon Pack. She used your bloo
Morgan felt uneasy after telling Laura the truth. He was guilty, and at the same time he felt pity for the girl he considered his daughter. He couldn't even bring himself to tell her that he wasn't her real father.One morning, he drove Jenny to school, hoping to see Lilian again. He also wanted to see her child because he felt like Lilian's son was his own."Dad, thank you for driving me," Jenny said brightly, hugging him. Her genuine affection for him touched his heart. How could he ever tell her the truth? He asked at the back of his mind.He watched as Jenny entered the classroom, waving goodbye to him. A few moments later, a car pulled up at the school gate, and his eyes followed as someone stepped out. It was Lilian's son Liam, who happened to be Jenny's classmate. "Bye, Granny," Liam waved his hand to the middle-aged woman inside the car. Morgan assumed it was Lilian's adoptive mother in Silverstone.When the boy reached in his direction, he called his attention. "Hey, kid, ca
Denise was still anxious. She paced in her room, waiting for her private investigator to call her, but he was still out of reach. She was in the terrifying thought that her mother, Aurora, might be in grave danger. Finally, Denise decided to go to the Balkans. She told her adoptive parents she was going to a business meeting and would be back in two days. She couldn't tell them about her real plan, because they still didn't know her true identity. She only told them before that she was an orphan and that Aurora took care of her. "Mom, you'll be gone for two days?" Liam's face was in a flat grimace, and he pouted his lips as he clutched his car toy tighter. Denise knelt down in front of him, feeling guilty of her white lies. "Yes, son, I'm sorry. Mom needs to attend this important meeting for work. It's just for two days, so let your Granny take care of you for a while, okay?" she said in assurance. Liam just nodded, but Denise knew her son wasn't happy. However, she had to do t
Morgan found out that the real Aron Smith had died eight years ago. Laura, desperate to have someone to be considered Jenny's father, had taken advantage of his amnesia and claimed him as her husband.Now that his memory had returned, he needed to tell her the truth. Though he knew it would be difficult for her, he couldn't keep living a life with a different identity.He sat down one evening upon his return from work to have a private chat with Laura." Hon, is there something wrong? You seem uneasy," Laura asked, her eyes fixed on him.Morgan cleared his throat. "Hmm. I have something very important to tell you. I hope you'll open your mind to understand the situation.""What is it?" she asked, furrowing her brows in confusion."Laura, I'm not your husband. You know that, don't you?" He paused for a while and looked at her."Laura, my memory has returned. I know who I am. I'm sorry, but I am not the real Aron. I am not your husband. My name is Morgan Garren from the Balkan Peninsula.
Morgan continued working at the hotel, keeping his real identity a secret to everybody. For now, he had no plan of returning to the Bluemoon Pack. He believed that the Moon Goddess had brought him here for Lilian. It was their destiny to meet again after eight long years to give him a chance to correct his mistakes from the past.One of the waiters tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Hey, Aron, time to serve our guests." Aron nodded and followed him while they set the food platters for the function hall. His heart started to thrill with excitement at the thought of seeing Lilian once more.As soon as he entered the function hall, his eyes searched for Lilian. His heart raced as soon as he saw her, looking gorgeous in her evening dress. He wanted to pull her into his arms and tell her how much he missed her. He couldn't bear anymore the longing of his heart and decided to tell her his true identity tonight.Meanwhile, Denise felt uneasy. Her heart was beating fast, just at the sight
It all came back to him. He was Morgan Garren, the former Alpha of the Bluemoon Pack, unjustly stripped of his leadership. Accused of treason, he was cast into the dungeon and left to rot with no food and no water. The guards beat him mercilessly, day after day. Then, Declan, his loyal beta, saved him. Declan had given him a powerful herbal tea that would stop his breathing for hours. When everyone thought he was dead, he was buried on the ground, but Declan dug him up and took him away. He traveled far, sailing across the ocean until a massive wave struck his boat. He vanished without a trace. The next time he awoke, he was in a hospital bed, with no memory of his past, even his own name. Morgan was in the midst of his thoughts when his cellphone rang. It was his wife, Laura."Honey, are you on your way now?" she asked, her voice filled with concern."Uhm, yes...I'm on my way," he stammered. For now, it was better to keep this a secret. Laura had been a good wife to him and Jenny—
Days had passed since Aron saved Denise, and he still couldn't shake the incident from his mind. He did not know he possessed that kind of strength and sent those criminals sprawling with a single blow. With this thought, he began to question his true identity. He couldn't remember anything, not even his name. Only his wife Laura told him he was Aron, her husband. And every time he tried to think about his origins, he was overcome by a severe headache. It was like a wall blocking his memories.He tried to set aside the unsettling thoughts and focused on his work at the luxury hotel especially that there were plenty of customers coming into the restaurant so he was certain he would be working overtime tonight.Until his gaze focused on the man, who just entered the restaurant. He was dressed in expensive suits, but he looked suspicious. His eyes were scanning the area as if he was searching for something. Aron pretended to be busy so another waiter approached the man to take his order.
