ELIZA’S POV

The moment the private jet landed in the capital, my heart began to race.

My wolf stirred inside me at the familiar, intoxicating scent that filled the air.

Even before I saw him, I knew he was here. Alexander.

As I stepped off the aircraft, my eyes landed on him.

At the sight of him alone, my breath hitched.

He stood tall. His presence commanded attention as usual.

He was dressed in a white button up shirt and black pants. His ocean blue eyes met mine, and for a moment, the entire world faded into the background.

My feet moved before I could think. I was drawn to him in a way I couldn’t explain.

He opened his arms, and I practically melted into them, inhaling his scent. I had never been this happy to see anyone before.

“I missed you,” he murmured against my hair. His lips pressed a soft kiss to my temple.

I tightened my arms around him, savoring the warmth of his body. “Me too,” I whispered.

Alexander didn’t seem like the type for public displays of affection, yet he held

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 1 Chapter One

    ELIZA’S POVAfter the final financial meeting of the day, I collapsed into the plush chair behind my desk, exhaustion weighing on my bones. As the Luna of the Crescent Moon Pack, my responsibilities stretched far beyond internal management—I had to ensure the pack’s economic stability, too.It wasn’t easy. No mentor. No guidance. And as a woman, every decision I made was scrutinized.But I had to be strong—because my husband, Derek, Alpha of the second-largest werewolf kingdom, was fighting on the front lines for our people.As his Luna and his strongest supporter, I had to keep the pack safe and stable in his absence.And so far, I’d done well.Then, a searing pain erupted at my mating mark.Since my father and brothers had fallen in battle, the scar had ached under stress—but this was different. This felt like claws raking through my flesh.I winced, pressing a hand to the burning skin—"Luna!"An Omega servant burst in, eyes bright with excitement. "Alpha Derek has returned!"Derek

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 2 Chapter Two

    ELIZA’S POVDerek's fury gathered like a storm, his hand twitching toward my throat—but Maya stopped him."Wait." She pushed past his arm, striding toward me with the smirk of a victor."Luna Eliza," she drawled my title like a taunt, "we both know you're just an Omega now. Your pack is gone. I'd wager the rogue wolves would tear you apart the moment you step outside these borders—""Maya, you're being too lenient," Derek cut in sharply, his gaze turning glacial as it locked onto me. "You should be grateful for this mercy instead of using stubbornness to seek my attention. Face reality."A dark chuckle rumbled from my wolf. My eyes widened slightly—Derek had been gone so long, he'd forgotten.Forgotten my family name.Forgotten who my father and brother had been.He'd forgotten that before I came, his people starved. That under my leadership, the Crescent Moon Pack had risen to become the second strongest in the kingdom. He hadn't even noticed the renovations to the Alpha's estate.My

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 3 Chapter Three

    ELIZA’S POVI frowned as I walked out the room and headed straight for my mother-in-law, Diana’s bedroom.I was pissed that this was happening to me.Not only did Derek want to dissolve our marriage for that bitch but he also planned on making me his mistress. The hell?I could feel my wolf coming out and baring her fangs, wanting nothing more than to tear those ingrates limb from limb.Derek for his betrayal and Maya for her sheer arrogance but I calmed her down. There was no point in attacking them and getting executed for my arrogance right now.I bit my lip, almost drawing blood as I approached Luna Diana’s room, my mind swirling with thoughts.I stopped at the door and knocked like I always did. Once I was given the go ahead to enter, I opened the door and stepped into the room.It was always the same.White pristine walls peppered with golden designs to give an ethereal look but these days the steady beeping of the ECG machine and the sight of a sickly and pale Diana hooked up t

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 4 Chapter Four

    ELIZA’S POVThe next morning had come by much quicker than I had expected, more so because I couldn’t sleep the night before.The act of betrayal and the blatant disrespect I got from not just Derek and his whore but also Diana was too much to bare that it ran through my mind constantly, depriving me of any rest.I huffed and stuffed the last clothes I had into my suitcase and zipped it up, ready to leave the building that Derek and I were meant to call home.I pulled up the handles and rolled the suitcase out of the room, on my way to the lobby below.Just as I got there, my heart set on leaving this place for good, the grating voice of a familiar face called out to me.“Finally, you’re leaving this mansion. It’s good that you know where you aren’t wanted.” Maya spat at me with a smirk on her face, causing me to come to a stop and frown.I wasn’t in the mood for her snarky remarks.I was leaving the pack and never looking back, I didn’t need to reply to her comments. She was nothing

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 5 Chapter Five

    ALEXANDER’S POVI tapped my right foot incessantly as I listened to my subordinates drone off about matters I already knew.I turned my gaze to nothing in particular, wanting to have some time myself but this had to be settled first. After all, military affairs on the battlefield came before my own life.The military camp had been my home for longer than I cared to remember.What began as a carefully orchestrated plan by my father, King Kyle, the Lycan King, to forge me into a capable leader had transformed into my entire existence.Under an alias, I had risen through the ranks, becoming the commander of an army that respected me not for my royal lineage, but for my combat skills and strategic mind.“Sir, the border is almost completely under our control. We’ve managed to push the forces back and regain our lost terrain. All that remains now is to push forward and claim theirs.” One of the men, Bolton, said to me, his eyes bright.“So what are we waiting for?” I asked them, already se

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 6 Chapter Six

    AUTHOR’S POVEliza got down from her car and walked up to the massive building in front of her.White marble walls with black trimmings and huge columns stared back at her, highlighting the power and opulence that this one building held.Its importance and stance was empowering and yet unnerving at the same time.This was the castle of the Lycan King. The centre of power of the Lycan Kingdom.She took a deep breath and calmed herself.Even though she wanted to go in there with guns blazing for the decision the king made concerning Derek and Maya, she had to keep herself in check.He was her king after all and she was not willing to die because of a reckless mistake.With a calm demeanor, Eliza walked up the stairs, wanting to go in to have an audience with the king but as soon as she reached the doors, she was stopped by the two guards who stood watch.“What is your purpose here?” One of the guards asked, his eyes narrowing at Eliza.“I am the Luna of the Silver Moon Pack and I reques

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 7 Chapter Seven

    DEREK’s POVI had always pursued Eliza for two fundamental reasons: her substantial wealth and her undeniable beauty.Not that her beauty meant much to me. It was nothing more than a superficial attribute.She was merely a trophy, a means to an end. A means that I had no choice but to use.The truth was, I despised everything about her role as a housewife.What contribution did such women make to the Lycan Kingdom? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.Luna’s like her were decorative at best and a burden at worst.Eliza was the epitome of everything I found frustrating about traditional pack dynamics—women who existed in the shadows of their husbands, contributing nothing to the pack's strength or survival but yet reaping the rewards of where they did not sow.The only thing they were held on a pedestal for was siring heirs to the throne or just as the children of the Alpha of the pack.That mentality had made Eliza unbearable.We didn’t spend a day together since we got married but I couldn’t

  • The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance   Chapter 8 Chapter Eight

    ELIZA’S POVI hadn't expected to run into Derek and Maya at all.The mall had always been somewhat my sanctuary—a place where I could analyze business operations, browse quietly, and momentarily escape.It was a place of peace especially since I knew that Derek wouldn’t ever set foot in the place.However, it turned out today I was wrong.When they appeared, I chose to ignore them first.My mother had always taught me that dignity was a weapon more powerful than any harsh words.But Maya, it seemed, didn’t learn such a lesson while growing up because her shrill voice called out to me."Look who's here," she sneered, her voice dripping with malice. “I didn’t think that you had enough money to shop in a place like this Eliza especially with the divorce so close at hand.” Maya jeered, thinking that she had landed a hit to my ego.I still ignored her, dropping the purse in my hand and reaching for another item to check the quality. It seemed like my lack of attention angered Derek because

    ALEXANDER’S POVThe moment I returned to the capital, I buried myself in royal duties.It was easier that way—easier to pretend I wasn't drowning in thoughts of her.Eliza.Her name was always in my mind. I missed her terribly. My wolf kept clawing at me, calling out for his mate.He demanded that I go back, that I claim her, that I hold her in my arms again.But I couldn't.Not yet. Duty came first, as it always had, as it always would.The grand hall was filled with nobles, generals, and high-ranking officials discussing preparations for the upcoming ceremony.The packs that had distinguished themselves in the border wars were to be honored, and as the heir to the throne, it was my responsibility to ensure every detail was executed flawlessly. But my mind drifted, betraying me.I couldn’t help but think about her.She was always in my mind.I thought of her beautiful eyes, the way she had looked at me, the way she felt in my arms, her lovely scent.Goddess, I was running mad.I coul

    ELIZA’S POVI sat at my desk, recalling the messenger’s words. The news was unsettling—dangerous even—and my instincts were already on high alert.“Where is this information from?” I asked him.“It’s from Alyosha, my lady. She sent it directly from the border.”Alyosha. The name hit me.I dismissed the messenger with a wave.Alyosha was a lone she-wolf I had met during my training days.Alyosha was wild, untamed, a free spirit who had no interest in the constraints of pack life.She had always vowed to explore the continent on her own terms, and it was that very defiance that allowed her to gather critical intelligence.As much as I admired her independence, I had always known that trusting her would not be totally good.I couldn’t wait any longer. I grabbed my phone, dialed her number and pressed it to my ear.“Come on, Alyosha,” I muttered to myself, “pick up.”When she finally answered, I sighed in relief.“Eliza,” she said “To what do I owe the pleasure?”“Alyosha,” I said “I rece

    ELIZA’S POVThe moment I stepped into the Derek and Maya’s banquet hall, all eyes turned to me.I could hear the gasps in the crowd and their whispers too. I could feel their stares, their curiosity, their judgment, but most of all, their admiration.I was dressed in a long white dress that hugged my curves in all the right places, I walked with slow steps. That way, every eye could see me.I wanted them to see me.The slit on the side of my dress revealed just enough of my leg to tease but not enough to cause a scandal.I paired my outfit with gold heels and just the right amount of make up to make heads turn.White was meant for the bride, but today, I had chosen it for myself. It was my silent statement—I was not a woman scorned. I was not someone that would be pushed aside.The wedding was a disaster.Instead of the elegance expected of an Alpha’s wedding, the grand hall was filled with the chaos of rowdy warrior wolves.They drank expensive liquor in the most irritating manner.

    ELIZA’S POVThe first rays of morning light filtered through the curtains as I woke up. My body ached in the most delicious way.Every touch, every whispered promise, every kiss, still lingered on my skin.I turned over, instinctively reaching for him, only to find the sheets cold and empty.My heart sank for a moment before I noticed a neatly folded note resting on his pillow.I picked up the note, unfolding it. It was a note from Alexander.My Eliza,You looked so beautiful this morning and it hurt me to leave you but duty calls me to the capital. Know that every moment with you has been lovely, a temptation I cannot resist. I am falling for you, deeper than I ever thought possible. Until I return, think of me, as I will think of you. I love you so much.Yours, Alexander.A slow smile spread across my lips as I traced the ink with my fingers. He loved me.The realization sent made me grin even wider.I had always known there was something different about Alexander, something that ma

    ELIZA’S POVAt that moment, all of my defenses crumbled.I could see the love and sincerity in Alexander's gaze. His blue eyes were filled with so much longing that it made me breathless.My wolf stirred within me. She was practically begging me to surrender to the magnetic pull between us."Eliza," he said softly, "I can't pretend anymore. Be mine, please"I opened my mouth to respond, but no words came out.My heart pounded wildly in my chest, and I felt exposed under his piercing gaze.His hand reached out, gently brushing a stray strand of hair from my face. The tender gesture made my breath hitch. My wolf howled within me, demanding that I close the distance between us, but I was still scared."You feel it too, don't you?" he whispered "This connection… it's undeniable."I swallowed hard. My throat suddenly felt dry."Alexander, I—"He cut me off "Please, Eliza. Just for once, let your heart speak. Forget the rules, the expectations. Just be with me."His plea was so raw, so genu

    ELIZA’S POVWithin three days, all the chaos caused by Maya had been resolved, and with Lily's help, Alexander's farewell banquet had come together perfectly.The air felt lighter now that everything was back in order, but there was still an ache in my chest.I’d been so caught up in organizing and fixing things that I’d barely had time to think about what tonight meant.Alexander was leaving.That thought made me sad.As evening approached, I heard a knock on my door. Before I could respond, a group of maids filed in, giggling and chattering amongst themselves.“Luna, we’re here to help you get ready,” one of them announced cheerfully.I blinked at them, startled. “You… you don’t have to. I can manage on my own.”“Nonsense!” another maid said, waving her hands as they guided me to sit in front of my vanity. “Tonight is special. You need to look your best, your grace.”I didn’t argue further. Part of me was curious about what they had planned.As I sat there, I watched their reflectio

    ELIZA’S POVI sat at my desk with papers scattered in front of me.My mind started to spin as I worked through a dozen different plans at once.The pack’s security was my top priority, but there were so many things at hand—Maya’s attack with the Lycans, political alliances, and the dangers I needed to protect them from.My eyes scanned the maps on my desk, mentally plotting out every defensive measure, every blind spot that could be used against us.And then I heard the door open.I didn’t need to look up to know who it was.My heart skipped a beat as I felt the strong energy of Alexander fill the room. He had that effect on me, always had.I glanced up, and for a moment, I was struck by how handsome he looked.He stood there, tall and commanding in the doorway. His presence filled the room, making everything else seem smaller.For a heartbeat, my wolf stirred inside me.She sensed him, just as I did.There was no hiding it.She was always happy when she saw him.Even though I’d spent

    ALEXANDER’S POVI sat in the dark study of Eliza’s pack house. My fingers drummed against the armrest of the chair as I replayed the memory of my recent closeness with Eliza.No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t push her out of my mind. Her beautiful face, her scent, the way her lips had felt against mine—it was too much.That kiss…I leaned forward, resting my elbows on my knees, trying to focus, but my body betrayed me.The thought of her, the way her body fit perfectly against mine, was enough to make me ache with longing. The thought of it made my cock twitch with excitement.Every detail replayed in my mind—the warmth of her touch, the softness of her lips, the way she looked at me with those intense brown eyes of her.My wolf stirred restlessly at the thought of its mate.She was mine. She just didn’t know it yet.Ever since we were bonded as mates, it had become very difficult to suppress my desires.My wolf recognized her, claimed her, but the bond was only one-sided for now
