I’m silenced as soon as I heard a sentence come out of Jeremy’s mouth. I looked at Jeremy with an incredulous face. My face flushed. My body was boiling well.“Are you seriously going to reject me as Luna? But why?” “Why are you still asking my reasons for rejecting you? It’s obvious you’re incapable of fulfilling your duties as Luna. You’re barren!” Jeremy shouted at me. “Jeremy, the doctor said we could have a child if I could--“ “Enough, Lilith. I’ve waited so long to have a child. We’ve been married a year and you can’t give me a child,” Jeremy cut me off. My heart skipped a beat when Jeremy dismissed my efforts as meaningless. Jeremy looked at me as useless rubbish. The elders of Moonlight Sonata dumped me because I was the weakest wolf. Jeremy dumped me because I was allegedly infertile. This reality is terribly painful.“Leave Eunice alone. Please give me one more chance. I can give you an obedient child and—”“Eunice will give me an heir to Shadowed Moon soon. You don’t have to worry.” “Jeremy, please give me one more chance,” I begged him.He let go of my hand. He glowered at me. “Don’t be such a fool. Stop bugging me. I’ve rounded up my strength. I reject you, Lilith Gutiérrez.” “Jeremy, please listen to me. The doctors just ruled me childless because of the stress that--”“I don’t need to repeat myself,” Jeremy replied rudely.“I’m sure you’re joking. You can’t do this after I help you.” Tears were falling. I shook Jeremy’s hand. Jeremy shoved my hand roughly, then smirked.“Are you kidding me?” I whispered.“No. I’m serious. This is the last time I’ll ever see you. I’ll take you back to the Moonlight Sonata.”“Jeremy, why are you doing this to me? You dumped me because Eunice is pregnant with your child? You remember that Eunice never helped you when you were broke!”“Have you lost your mind? It’s obvious you can’t give me a baby. You useless, she wolf! I need a baby for the future of the rest of my pack. I don’t think I need to explain myself to you!” Jeremy answered me with a glare. His words stung, digging deep into my flesh so hard. Jeremy insulted me so badly. I feel ripped. His insults haunted me until I’m depressed. Jeremy pressured me so hard that I didn’t have time to think about my own mental state. “Stop crying. You look uglier when you cry,” Jeremy said without turning to me. I bow down in sorrow. I can’t stand looking at his green eyes. I can’t go up against Jeremy. In the midst of my pain over Jeremy’s rejection. Eunice came to us. Jeremy was so sweet to Eunice. I’ve never even seen that side of Jeremy. Eunice was a lucky girl to have such a gentle attitude. I’m not the legit Luna of Jeremy Brooks. Jeremy’s never been so sweet on me. The jealousy in my heart is heating. “Honey, how are you?” Jeremy greeted Eunice with a hug. “Jeremy, I’m just here to deliver this soup.” “Soup? I’d like that. You’ve been very good at cooking. Not like that stupid wolf.” Jeremy was treating me like a stupid wolf.It was suffocating. The harsh reality choked my neck. Jeremy made me helpless among them.“Don’t act so pathetic, Lilith. We both know that our marriage is a compulsion,” he scoffed. “You know I’m not comfortable with you. We shouldn’t continue a relationship that makes one of us uncomfortable!”Jeremy’s words made me gasp. I ran away from Jeremy and Eunice. I cried myself to death. I ran as far as I could to relieve this suffocating pain. My pacing became more and more rapid as the tears flowed.I tore up the trees along the way. I vented my anger, raging in the woods. My wolf ran fast and fell into a sharp stems puddle. I gave her full control because I knew she needed this. As loud as I could, I screamed. The tree trunks hurt me, but I didn’t care. I tried to get out and knelt to cry. I cursed my bad luck all the time. I hated my life. Being born into a cruel world made me sad. I couldn’t understand why I had the worst fate among the other wolves. I can’t remember the last time I felt the most sincere happiness. I feel empty all the time.An hour passed, and I accepted it was finally time for us to return to the Shadowed pack house. I nudged her head to state that we should go home, but she let out a low growl to let me know she wasn’t happy with this idea.“Lilith!” I turned and found Eunice following me into the woods. “We need to talk about this.” “Will you bow before me?” I looked at Eunice with tears in my eyes. “Lilith, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to hurt you.” Eunice grabbed my hand. “You did it on purpose, didn’t you?” Without looking into her eyes, I asked. “I didn’t do it on purpose. Lilith, I’m trying to be a beta obedient to the pack leader.”I smiled. “Really? Did you obey him by sleeping with him while his legitimate wife was struggling to minimise Shadowed Moon’s bankruptcy?” I screamed. “I can explain everything, Lilith.” “What can you tell me about this incident? You want to explain that all you fascinate the men?” I gritted my teeth. Eunice tried to hold my shoulder, but I pushed her away. Eunice crashed into a Burmese rosewood tree behind her. “Congratulations to Eunice. You have become a special Luna to Jeremy Brooks.” I was snorting. Eunice groaned while holding her stomach. “Why are you pushing me, Lilith? Why are you trying to hurt me?” Eunice was in pain. Hearing Eunice’s question made me cry. I cried, saying nothing. I hate myself for not being perfect. “Lilith... forgive me,” she tried to grab my hand. “I would never complain if I didn’t love Jeremy. Jeremy got me out of hell at the Moonlight Sonata. But why are you here?” I was crying. “Lilith... this is all Jeremy’s plan. If he doesn’t, akh! --“ It shocked me when Eunice cried out in pain. I approached her. “Are you all right?” “My stomach hurts so much,” she complained. “Oh, my God, I’m so sorry, Eunice. You know what? I didn’t mean to hurt you or your baby. I was just—”"Lilith!"
“I punched one of them square in the chest,” I began, my voice low but urgent. “It should’ve sent him flying, knocked the wind right out of him. But he didn’t even flinch. It was like… like there was something inside him. Something strong, something unnatural.”She frowned, her gaze drifting somewhere distant as if the answer was hiding just out of reach. After a moment, she turned back to me, her expression hardening with determination.“I’ve got a silver axe in the shed,” she said firmly. “If I coat it with poison, maybe—just maybe—they won’t be able to lay a finger on me.”I ran my fingers gently through her hair, trying to soothe the tension that radiated off her.“Alright,” I said softly, “get yourself ready. We’re making a run for it. I’ve got someone lined up to pick us up in a helicopter.”Her head snapped toward me, eyebrows raised in disbelief. “You’re joking, right? A helicopter?”I smirked at the incredulous look on her face. “What, don’t think I could pull it off?”She ro
TYLER:The shrill ring of the phone shattered the silence, yanking me out of sleep. My hand darted out instinctively, fumbling in the dark until my fingers found the device. I pressed it to my ear, my voice heavy with grogginess.“Hello?” I mumbled, barely awake.“Tyler, it’s bad.”The voice on the other end wasn’t just familiar—it was laced with urgency, cutting through the fog in my mind like a blade. I sat bolt upright, adrenaline surging through me.“What is it, Teresa?” My jaw tensed as the weight of her tone settled over me.“It’s Taylor,” she said, her voice breaking slightly. “Jeremy’s taken him.”“What?” The word came out as a hiss, sharp and disbelieving, as I shot to my feet. My pulse hammered in my ears. “How the hell did that happen? How could you let this happen?”I turned, glancing at Lilith, still cocooned beneath the thick blankets, her breathing steady, blissfully unaware. I forced my voice lower, but it was taut with barely restrained anger.“There was—there was an
“Come here, kid. Not shy about a bit of fun, am I?” Tyler grinned, mischief flashing in his eyes. “This’ll be a laugh,” Dean chimed in, rolling up his sleeves. “Count me in too!” Keanna blew the whistle with a dramatic flourish, kicking off the Pepero game. Cheers erupted as I awkwardly nibbled the end of my biscuit stick, facing Tyler under the crowd’s eager gaze. Before I could react, Tyler tugged me closer—his focus sharp, as if the room had emptied around us. In one swift move, he devoured his end of the Pepero and pressed a quick, cheeky kiss to my lips. “Blimey! Three seconds in and we’ve got our winners!” Keanna shrieked, bouncing over while I flushed crimson, half tempted to bolt. “Best-matched pair of the night!” she announced, riling up the guests into whoops and claps. Tyler slung an arm around my shoulders, planting another smug peck on my cheek. “True love’s touch, mate. So—what’s our prize?” Dean snorted, rummaging in a black box. “Bet you’re itching for that roman
The following morning, under a cloudless sky that felt almost mocking after the previous day’s ordeal, Tyler ambushed me with a question. “Fancy a trip to the amusement park?”I arched a brow. “Why an amusement park?”“Thought we could use a bit of fun, my dear.” His grin was all mischief, sunlight catching the playful glint in his eyes.“There are better ways to entertain ourselves than queuing for rollercoasters,” I said, stifling a laugh.He bit his lower lip, leaning closer. “Oh? Do enlighten me.”“Don’t.” I rolled my eyes and turned away, though my cheeks betrayed a flicker of warmth.“Come off it—I know what you’re plotting,” he teased, clapping his hands theatrically and waggling his brows.“Psychic now, are we? Could’ve sworn you couldn’t read a room, let alone my mind,” I muttered.“I know what makes you blush.” Tyler grinned, slinging an arm around my shoulders. “If you’re not keen on the amusement park, where do you want to go? We’re not spending this holiday aslee
I drove my elbow hard into his chest, forcing a pained grunt from him. “What sort of lunatic screeches like a goat?”“Darling, no need to be so vicious,” Tyler said, pursing his lips with mock innocence. “I’m sure you’re all sweetness and light for Jeremy.”“This isn’t a joke, Tyler.” My voice hardened. “Kiara Logan saved my life, and I’ve heard nothing about her since. What if Jeremy’s made her suffer for it?”Tyler reached for my hand, his touch deliberate as he lifted it to his lips. The gesture felt like a rebuke, and I shifted uncomfortably, my earlier mockery now hanging heavy between us. His gaze held mine, steady and unreadable. Guilt prickled under my skin.“I am trying to find a way to help her,” he said quietly. “But these things… they take time. There are no easy answers.”“You’d do that for me?” I asked, the words brittle with hope.“I’d pluck the moon from the seventh sky itself if you asked,” Tyler said, his grin sharp and unrepentant. “Promise me you’ll save Kiara Log
“Of course, Mum. What is it you’d like to discuss?” I replied, absently loosening the trainers I’d yet to take off.“Your… situation with Tyler Watson, love.” Her voice dropped to a whisper, then faltered, whether from discomfort or hesitation. She seemed to regret broaching the subject altogether. “Do you truly feel for him, the way you did with Jeremy?”I drew a slow breath before answering. “I’m sure Nick’s already told you things. It’s just… this is all rather sudden. I’m not sure I’m ready.”“What’s troubling you, Lilith?” Her tone softened, threaded with urgency. “The Moon Goddess granted you a second chance. Don’t squander it. Tyler is meant to be your Alpha—I’m certain of it.”“I know, Mum,” I murmured, “but this all feels… rushed. What if Tyler and I do mate someday, and he regrets it? Regrets me? I can’t give him children. And he’s a Lycan—he’ll need an heir.” The words spilled out in a brittle whisper, sharp with the fear I’d buried for months.“Sweetheart, you can’t keep b
“You’re the one acting like a depraved tosser!” Tyler snapped. “I’ll see you in court for harassment, I swear—”Heavy, deliberate footsteps cut through the chaos. Mr. Benedict emerged, his face flushed crimson, jaw clenched. For a heartbeat, I braced for an eruption—but instead, he strode straight to the man and landed a stinging slap across his cheek.“You vile bastard—get out of my shop!” Mr Benedict roared, his voice slicing through the tension. “I won’t tolerate filth like you harassing my staff. Try this again—with any girl here—and I’ll have the police chief himself on your doorstep. That’s no empty threat. My brother is the chief, and he’ll have you in cuffs before you can blink.” The man flinched, exchanged a panicked glance with his cronies, then scrambled out of the café without so much as a muttered apology. As silence settled, Mr Benedict turned to me, his stern expression softening briefly.“I’ll be hiring proper security tomorrow. This won’t happen again.” His gaze shif
Two days had passed since Mum’s cryptic warning about the “unique ability” I was supposedly born with. Yet here I stood, clueless. Shouldn’t I feel it, if such a power thrummed in my veins? For forty-eight hours, I’d scrutinised every stranger, braced for some looming menace—or a revelation. Neither came.Our new home, nestled in an affluent estate, should have been a sanctuary. Tyler had invited me to live there, discreetly covering the cost himself. “You’ll be protected here,” he’d insisted, though he’d offered no explanation for that ominous word. Protection from what? The house, with its vaulted ceilings and sunlit parlours, felt less like a haven and more like a gilded cage.That morning, Tyler and I arrived at work early, pausing first at a bustling local café. He’d splurged on crispy bacon rolls despite his meagre salary—a reckless generosity that nagged at me. Tyler’s finances were a riddle, he burned through cash like a man with a trust fund, yet his job at the coffee shop ba
Tyler sighed, lifting one leg to rest casually as his eyes roamed the room. His gaze drifted upward, lingering on the wall clock’s ornate face, its spindly hands slicing through the silence with mechanical precision. For a heartbeat, he cradled his knee, then froze—a statue offering no reply to the conversation we’d left dangling. Without warning, he swerved, wrenching the night’s dialogue into unfamiliar territory.“Can you even imagine the favours you’d earn,” he began, voice low, “if you begged the Moon Goddess’s mercy?”I cocked a brow. “You’re harping on about this again? I’m the one asking questions. What’s so bloody remarkable about suffering? Can I even… dim its grip, or is it just endless?”Tyler spluttered, gaping at me like I’d lost the plot. I ordered him off the bed; he retreated to the sofa without protest, all theatrical sighs and raised brows.Dusk had settled properly now. The night chorus—crickets, rustling creatures—swelled louder, yet the growl of some distant engin
