“Silas Shadowborne’s son?!” Zander’s eyes narrowed into piercing slits as he appraised Jasper. “And you expect us to believe you when your name has never crossed my ears?”

Jasper’s voice was tinged with bitterness as he explained, “Damon manipulated our father, forcing my mother and me into exile from the kingdom. I was prepared to return when I learned of Father’s death and Damon’s treachery, but my mother insisted it was Father’s dying wish for Damon to rule. When I heard of Uncle’s murder and Damon’s flight, I returned to confront whoever was plunging my land into chaos.” His gaze swept over us, a glint of disdain flickering in his eyes.

“We aren’t causing chaos; we liberated your land from the clutches of your half-brother Damon. Now, we’re striving to restore peace and unity after your king fled in defeat,” I interjected, sensing the tension escalating.

“We don’t need your interference, especially not from wolves who deceived and killed my father!” Jasper’s voice thundered, causi

    *Selena*"Why would I marry your daughter?" I heard a deep, sexy voice emanating from my father's office."If you meet her, you will like her. She is pretty and has been training to be a good and perfect Luna. She would be a perfect wife and mate. She is a very calm and obedient girl," my father's voice pleaded, and I couldn't help but wince at his words.Which daughter was he talking about? My younger sister, Anne, was only fifteen – he couldn't possibly be considering marrying her off already, right? The acceptable minimum age for werewolf marriages was sixteen. So, it dawned on me that they must be talking about me, as I had turned eighteen just last month."Still, Alpha Albert, I don't buy your words. Why would I marry a wolfless girl just to make this filthy alliance with your pack?" The same deep, husky voice responded with arrogance.Alliance?!Curiosity gnawed at me as I tried to decipher the situation. Who was this man who seemed so dismissive of my father's offer, yet held su

Though his reputation as a cold-hearted monster preceded him, I couldn’t deny how breathtakingly handsome he looked in that moment. He offered his hand, and I hesitated before placing mine in his. He lifted my hand to his lips, pressing a soft kiss to the back of my palm. The unexpected gesture sent shivers down my spine, igniting a new and electrifying sensation that left me breathless and wanting more. What was that?!As we stepped inside the restaurant, I realized the entire place had been reserved exclusively for us. I was stunned, but I dared not look at him, afraid my expression would give away my surprise. When I saw the elegantly set table at the center, illuminated by soft candlelight, I realized it was meant for a private dinner date. I struggled to mask my excitement, keeping my face composed, but my heart pounded loudly in my chest. As an Alpha, he must have heard i

Zander and I had wanted a baby for so long since we had mated.

    *Selena*A grand conference had descended upon the Moonglow pack, nestled in the heart of the North. Known far and wide as the largest and most prestigious pack, it stood under the rule of none other than the Alpha King himself, Zander Blake. Alphas from every corner of the world converged upon this sacred ground, drawn by the significance of the gathering. And at the helm of it all, leading the congregation, was the formidable figure of Alpha King Zander Blake.I wiped away my tears, summoning the strength to compose myself. Taking a deep breath, I hurried towards the conference hall. The pain of betrayal made it challenging to drag my weary body forward. Tears persisted, blurring my vision and momentarily blinding me. Nonetheless, I fought against them, pushing them back."Luna Queen, I'm sorry, but you can't enter. The conference has already begun, and I've been instructed not to let anyone in," the guard pleaded, attempting to prevent me from entering. However, as the Luna Queen,

    *Selena* **Three years later**"Mom, look at this game! I really want it," Austin exclaimed, excitement radiating from his young face as he proudly displayed the coveted game. However, my heart sank as I glanced at the price tag. We were already struggling to make ends meet, and splurging on such luxuries was far beyond our means. "Yeah! It seems to be a nice game. But, sweetheart, this game is more suitable for older children. Let's find something else that's perfect for your age," I quickly improvised, attempting to shield him from the harsh reality of our financial limitations.Deep down, guilt gnawed at my conscience. As a mother, I felt like I had failed in providing for my son. I worked multiple part-time jobs, often barely earning enough to cover our basic necessities, let alone indulgences. The burden of my shortcomings weighed heavily upon me, especially considering Austin was a prince, an heir and had alpha blood. It pained me that he had to endure a life of poverty due to

After losing everything, Austin had become my reason to keep going. Nothing in this world was more precious to me than him. I was aware that my thoughts could be irrational at times, but I couldn't help being frightened for him. The fear of Zander discovering Austin's existence and the potential consequences consumed me.Suddenly, my breaths became shallow, and panic threatened to overtake me.

    "You... I remember you," my eyes sparkled with recognition as I took in the seer's serene smile."Yes, Luna. It is me again," the seer replied, her voice calm and knowing. "I told you that your belief would lead you out of this dark fog and reveal the truth. And you truly have changed fate because you believed in your love."Her words seemed to weave a spell around us, and in that moment, memories of our first meeting came rushing back to me. I was struck by how deeply meaningful her words had been.

Fate was altered by the power of belief. I was awestruck by the realization that such a small word held such immense power, capable of averting the inevitable."Thank you for warning me and for your loyalty to the pack. The Moonglow pack will always be indebted to you for your loyal services," I said, my voice filled with g

    The tears poured down from my eyes as we kissed. I whimpered against my mate's lips, overwhelmed by a rush of emotions. I was happy, yet the disbelief lingered—I had almost lost him. It was true that we never truly valued our loved ones until we almost lost them. I had experienced both hell and heaven in those few moments when my mate lay lifeless on my lap, and then he breathed again. I knew better after almost losing him what he was to me, and I would never ignore him over anything. He was everything I needed to live, breathe, and feel alive.“Why are you crying, my mate?” Zander’s brow furrowed in concern as he gently took my face in his large hand. His touch was tender, and his eyes searched mine with a depth of love and worry. I shook my head, trying to smile through my tears, but the emotions choked me, leaving me speechless.I gazed at his beautiful face, the one I had feared I might never see again, and took a deep breath before finding my voice.Tears streamed down my face a

    Suddenly, the air crackled with energy, and two divine figures appeared before me. The first was the High Priestess—my mother—and the other, the sacred appearance of the Moon Goddess herself.“Selena, you can't be serious about threatening me, can you?” the Moon Goddess teased lightly, her voice carrying an air of amusement. But her casual demeanor only fueled my fury.“How can you be so indifferent while I am in so much pain?” I challenged, my voice trembling with emotion.“But you chose this path. What more can I do?” she replied with a shrug, her tone frustratingly calm.“Moon Goddess, I love Alpha Zander, and you expect me to accept his death with happiness. Are you truly this heartless?” I scowled, tears streaming down my cheeks uncontrollably.“I thought you would bring Zander back. He is innocent and has nothing to do with this battle,” I pleaded desperately, my voice cracking with sorrow.“He had to die according to the prophecy, Selena. Neither you nor I can change that,” the

    *Selena*"Why are you crying for our enemy? He tried to kill me, and so he had to die,” Damon growled, his voice strained from the impact of Selena's powerful blow.“No!” I roared, my eyes flashing with a mix of pain and fury. “He doesn’t deserve death. It’s you who will pay for killing my Zander!” my scream echoed through the room as I unleashed another devastating strike, sending Damon hurtling across the room to crash against a distant wall.“I can’t believe you would defend him over me. I am your mate, and yet you choose to protect our enemy,” Damon snarled, struggling to rise to his feet amidst the wreckage.“No!” my voice boomed, my entire demeanor now a terrifying force of vengeance. “I have loved only one man my entire life, and when will you understand that it’s not you!” my words were a declaration, punctuated by the raw power of my attacks as I closed in on Damon once more.“Then you are a fool, Selena. If you had chosen me, I would have let you live. But you chose death. P

It was as if someone was calling out to me, needing me urgently. I stopped in my tracks and looked behind me. Everything seemed normal, yet the feeling persisted, an invisible force pulling at me, making it difficult to move ahead.I turned around again, my gaze drawn to the garden Harper referred to as the cursed land. Something about it seemed to call out to me, a whisper of unease.Arena, my wolf, was restless. She howled in my mind, "I think we need to investigate that cursed land. It's strange why everyone is forbidden from going there.""You’re right," I replied through our mindlink. "I feel it too. Why is it cursed? We need to uncover the mystery behind it."“What happened?

The golden trident in his hand was proof that his intentions were far from good.“So, this was a trap for me,” I challenged, raising my head with pride.“I don’t have a problem with you, Alpha. But you were the one who tried to take my mate and started this. Your curiosity has led you to your grave,” Damon mocked, snorting and gesturing around with his arms.“And you call yourself a king?” I taunted. “Attacking from the shadows like a coward.”“Zander, I am nothing like you, and your provocations won’t work on me,” Damon scowled smugly.“That’s right, you are nothing like me. I have Alpha blood and am a real man, not a coward who lacks moral values,” I snarled, baring my teeth.“Moral values?!” he laughed mockingly. “Are you fucking serious, Alpha Zander?
