“Caleb,” I managed, my voice breaking. “What are you saying?” “I have to protect the pack,” he said, looking everywhere but at me. “Protect the pack? What does that even mean?” “There’s a prophecy… if I take you as my mate, it could doom us all. I have to keep the pack safe, even if that means…” His voice faltered, but his grip on me remained steady. “No.” I pulled my hands back, the anger and hurt surging all at once. How could he throw away everything we’d built and because of some prophecy? “You’re the Alpha. You’re supposed to trust in us, trust in me.” “I’m sorry, Emma,” he said to me, then out loud. “I reject you, Emma, as my mate and hereby annul this mating ceremony" ♡♡♡ Alpha Caleb Blackwood and Luna-in-training, Emma Rivers are destined to be mates. But on the night of their bonding ceremony, Caleb shocks the entire pack by rejecting Emma, leaving her heartbroken. Out of pain and humiliation, Emma leaves behind the only home she's ever had. Unknown to Caleb, Emma is already carrying his child when she leaves.
View MoreThings weren't supposed to happen like that. I was supposed to have a normal day at work and then rush home to my son. Then we were supposed to leave town and start up somewhere new. I could barely hide the fear on my face as I saw my plans fall to shambles before my eyes. I had no idea Lucas would be at Christina's place. Christina stood at the door closely eyeing me and Caleb. I knew she would be interrogating me about that later. “Mum! You're back! What took you so long today?” Lucas asked as he wrapped his little hands around me. I tried to regain my composure as I lowered myself to the ground to talk to him.“I'm sorry honey, I got held up at work. That's all. Did you have a good day?”“Yes but Tatia fell asleep already so I got bored watching TV and aunt Christina already made dinner. She kept some for you too!” He sounded so excited. That childish freedom was the reason I'd pick raising him among humans over raising him with the pack. I wanted my son to have the chance to be
There he was, the man who I'd given my heart and my very being to. The man who had so cruelly crushed me. The man I'd sworn my life to. He was right in front of me, clear as day. Caleb looked surprised to see me at first then his gaze fixed on me with an intensity that felt like it could burn through steel. I saw several emotions pass across his features in an instant. He looked the same, if not for his eyes which were shadowed with something I couldn’t place. “Emma” He said my name, erupting chills through my body. My lips parted but my breath caught in my throat. Looking at him brought all the memories back, good and bad. “Caleb” I managed to keep my voice even, hiding the raw mix of anger and vulnerability I felt from seeing him again after seven years. He stepped closer, and I stepped back. “Emma, I… I didn’t know you were here.” “And now you do.” I lifted my chin, every ounce of hurt and fury from that night at the ceremony resurfacing. “What are you doing here?” Hi
The small human town was nothing like Blackwood territory. 7 months had passed since Caleb’s rejection, and I’d tried to make peace with a life without Caleb or my pack. I’d built something for myself here, a quiet, hidden life where no one knew me as the Luna who was rejected. And my thoughts rarely returned to Caleb, or so I told myself.Everything changed when I found out I was pregnant. The realization came with a mix of emotions. Caleb didn’t know, and he never would. This baby was mine to protect and to love.Christina and her husband were wonderful people. They let me stay with them until I had my son and was ready to stand on my own feet. I'd ended up developing a friendship with Christina. She had strong maternal instincts despite her inability to bear a child of her own. Lucas was born under a crescent moon. He was perfect, with his father’s dark hair and my bright green eyes. In that moment, I swore to protect him from everything, including his own bloodline.I finally mov
The moon outside was at its peak, casting a luminescent glow on the forest where I would be wed. All preparations had been made and I was only minutes away from having my dream wedding with the man of my dreams, my fated mate, Caleb. “Oh look at that, she can't stop blushing” one of my friends and bridesmaids said, making my already rosy cheeks turn a deeper red.“Our Luna can't stop thinking about her mate” They continued to tease me.“Cut it out guys” I finally managed to say as they all giggled.They finished styling my hair and I was finally able to see myself fully in the mirror. The person I saw in the mirror looked breathtaking. Fully ready, I was ushered outside where the ceremony was about to begin. Important people from different packs had been invited to witness mine and Caleb’s mating ceremony.I stood under the full moon, my heart pounding in my chest. Tonight was the night I’d waited for my whole life. The night I’d become Caleb Blackwood’s Luna. The air was charged, an
