ZOEY
“How did I get home?” My whole body ached as I tried to get up from bed. The last thing I could remember was partying last night with Charlie, my step sister, in the club as it was her birthday last night. I didn’t know how I got home, I had probably drank a lot and gotten so drunk that I couldn’t remember. I made a mental note to ask her later.
I forced myself to get out of bed, ignoring the pain, I headed to the bathroom. I turned on the tap and washed my face, then I looked at my reflection in the mirror and that was when I noticed that I had some bruises on my neck, and when I studied it carefully, I realized that it looked like hickeys.
How did it get on my skin? I didn’t get intimate with anyone so how did this happen? I shook my head to brush off the thought. I was overthinking and it was probably just a bug bite.
Speaking of being intimate, I suddenly remembered my mate. Today was my one year anniversary with Kelvin!
It was on this day, two years ago that we discovered we were mates and since then, we’ve been inseparable.
Kelvin was the Alpha of our pack, the Moonstone pack, and despite the fact that I didn’t have a wolf, he loved me regardless and promised to make me his Luna.
I quickly took my bath and got dressed and then I made my way to the pack house to see him, when suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my chest.
It hurt so much that I stopped on my tracks, holding my chest and I groaned out in pain. The pain was indescribable, it felt like someone was stabbing me with a knife. I looked around to call for help but there was no one around.
Fortunately, it subsided after a while, not fully gone but it was manageable. I straightened and slowly walked to Kelvin’s room.
Feeling exhausted from the pain, I wanted nothing than to be in the arms of my mate so I pushed the door open and the scene that met my eyes made me freeze on the spot.
Kelvin was naked on the bed with Charlie and they were oblivious to me as they were both engrossed in their activity.
My whole body shook and I swayed as the pain in my chest returned, but this time, it was stronger than ever. “Kelvin…” I struggled to form words due to the intense pain I felt, “Charlie, what the hell is going on here?!” I managed to ask, despite the pain, even though anger radiated throughout my body.
So this was what was causing me pain? The mate bond was very cruel. The moon goddess made it to be that if a wolf cheats on their mate, the affected one would suffer severe pains that could even lead to death. No wonder I felt so much pain.
I expected an explanation or a look of remorse but instead, Kelvin slowly pulled away from Charlie and smirked at me. “Oh, you’re here,” he sounded so casual like I hadn’t just caught him sleeping with my step sister.
“Kelvin, how could you?” I yelled and tears fell down my face. “How could you cheat on me with my sister?!” I couldn’t describe the pain that I felt at that moment and when I turned to Charlie, she had a victorious look on her face like she had just won the game. I couldn’t believe it.
“Why would you seduce my mate, Charlie?” I asked her in a shaky voice as I was barely able to control my emotions.
“Oh, shut it!” Charlie snapped at me.
“Don’t you dare play the victim,” Kelvin chimed in protectively and cautioned me angrily, “I’m only giving you a taste of your own medicine, you dirty slut,”
“What are you talking about?” I frowned and blinked my eyes in confusion. I caught him cheating on me and instead of feeling remorseful, he was still siding with Charlie and here he was, telling me not to play the victim. What was he on about?
“I knew you’d lie,” He chuckled darkly and turned to Charlie who was still lying on the bed, not even bothering to cover her body. Charlie smiled and gave him a black envelope from the bedside table.
Kelvin took the envelope and threw it at me. “Take a look. You think I wouldn’t find out of your dirty behavior? You disgust me,” he spat.
“What is this?” I asked and although I knew myself that I had been faithful to Kelvin, I felt scared and anxious to open the envelope. I really didn’t understand what was going on. They should be apologizing to me!
“Open it already, Zoey. We’re sick and tired of your lies and games.” Charlie chimed in, looking irritated.
I swallowed hard and I felt my heart race as I stared at the envelope. My throat felt dry and my hands were shaky as I finally got the courage to open it up, and the content of the envelope made my heart stop. There were photos of me in bed with Timothy, a pack warrior that had been making advances at me for the longest time.
What was going on? How did the pictures come about? This had to be a joke.
“W-what is this?” I pleaded desperately, and in that moment, it felt hard to defend myself, “This is a lie. I didn’t do this. This isn’t me, Kelvin, you have to believe me. I’d never cheat on you. Today is our anniversary.”
Tears rolled down my cheeks as I fell to my knees, begging Kelvin to believe me. I’d never cheat on him. We had our future already planned out. This had to be a joke.
“Enough of your lies!” Charlie snapped, “You think I didn’t see you when you left the club with Timothy? Don’t you have any shame?”
“I..I didn’t,” I said in between tears. “I didn’t leave with Timothy. She’s lying, Kelvin. You have to believe me.”
“Are you listening to yourself, Zoey? That’s pathetic even for you,” Charlie said calmly but she had a smirk on her face.
All my life, Charlie had been nice to me. She always told me of how much she admired me as her big sister and how she was happy to be around me. Never in my life did I expect her to suddenly turn on me. But why? What did I do to deserve this?
“Was this your plan?” I wiped my tears and asked her, although I already had my suspicions. “Did you get me drunk so that Timothy could have his way with me?”
Before I could process what was happening, Kelvin slapped me across the face and I stumbled backwards. “Shut up!” He yelled, “You’re not only a whore, you’re also a terrible person. How can you accuse your own sister for drugging you.”
The slap was nothing compared to the pain I felt in my chest. ”I’m your mate, Kelvin! The moon goddess made us be together forever, not her!” I cried desperately, hoping he’d turn around and stand by me but it was all futile.
“Don’t bother about her,” Charlie said in a sweet voice and clung to Kelvin.
I turned to Kelvin, my mate, my Alpha, and the man who swore to love me no matter what. “You know me, Kelvin. You know I would never betray you. Please—”
His eyes were cold, and dark. “I don’t know anything anymore.”
Charlie sighed dramatically and stretched on the bed. “Kelvin, just reject her and banish her already. The whole pack deserves to know what kind of Luna she would have been.”
Reject and banish? No, he couldn’t. I would be nothing without Kelvin.
It felt like I was about to collapse but I forced myself to breathe, my hands shaking. “You can’t do this to me,” I whispered in a shaky voice. “Kelvin, please.”
He tightened his jaw like he was contemplating whether or not to give me a second chance but when Charlie leaned in and whispered something in his ears, his face darkened and his next words broke me.
“For your betrayal, you are no longer a member of this pack. You are banished.”
I swayed on my feet, at first there was silence and then, it dawned on me. My world collapsed and I could barely breathe. “No..,” I muttered to myself, “No..”
Through my haze, I heard Charlie’s voice. “As my sister, I’ll do you a favour by telling you to run before the guards come to get you!”
I ignored her, still processing everything that had happened but when I heard the guards behind me, I knew I had to run, and that was exactly what I did.
GRAHAMShe told me to let her go.The words echoed through my mind like a broken record that I couldn’t fix. I stood in the empty space long after she had disappeared, the scent of her still lingering in the air and mocking me with everything I couldn’t have.Let her go?How the hell was I supposed to do that?I walked back to the packhouse in silence, not even noticing the people who passed me or the curious glances that they threw my way. I went straight to my room and locked the door behind me. The walls felt too tight, and the air felt too still. My wolf paced restlessly inside me, growling low and angry, but I couldn’t calm him. I couldn’t even calm myself.I dropped onto the edge of the bed and ran both hands through my hair in frustration and gripped it like it would bring me some kind of restraint or peace. My chest burned. My mind screamed and all I could see were her eyes, Frankie’s glowing and calm eyes as she shattered every piece of me.“It was a mistake.”She said that a
ZOEYI stormed out of the woods and into my room and I could feel my heart racing, and I clenched my fists so tightly that it felt numb. I didn’t care how calm Frankie looked or acted, all I knew was that I was done being quiet.“You had no right!” I yelled, feeling my anger boil underneath my skin. “You told him to let me go! Why would you do that? Are you okay?”I could feel Frankie standing straight, instead of backing down and explaining things to me. It felt like I was staring straight at her and she was openly challenging me. Her glowing eyes were calm, like always and it infuriated the shit out of me. “He needed to hear it.”“No, he didn’t,” I snapped. “He needed me, he needed us. And what did you do in return? you broke his heart and made me seem like the bad person. Like there’s something wrong with me!”“He was already breaking,” she said quietly. “Don’t put all the blame on me!”I paced around the room, trembling with anger. “I felt it. I felt his pain, Frankie. His anger.
GRAHAMThe fire in the fireplace had burned low, leaving the office in a soft atmosphere. I leaned back in my chair, fingers under my chin, staring at the dying fire. The taste of Zoey still lingered on my lips—sweet, warm, intoxicating. I shouldn’t have kissed her. No. That wasn’t the problem. The problem was that I wanted to do it again. A growl tore from my throat, raw and frustrated. My wolf snarled in my chest, restless, torn between two instincts—one that howled for my mate, Frankie, and another that burned for Zoey’s fire, her defiance, the way she looked at me like I was both the storm and the shelter. This is wrong. But it didn’t feel wrong. And that terrified me. I squeezed my eyes shut, dragging a hand down my face. The bond between mates was sacred. Unbreakable. So why did my pulse race for someone else? Why did my blood heat at the memory of Zoey’s fingers tangled in my shirt, pulling me closer like she never wanted to let go? A whisper of presence brush
GRAHAMThe Pack House was in its usual state of controlled chaos when we arrived. Warriors lounged in the common area, some sparring, others nursing drinks. A few pups darted between legs, yipping excitedly, while the elders watched from their usual spots near the fireplace, shaking their heads at the younger generation’s antics. And then there was Roland. Leaning against the doorway like he’d been waiting for us (which, knowing him, he had), my Beta raised a brow as Zoey stepped inside behind me. His gaze flicked to the bruise on her temple, the hospital bracelet still stubbornly clinging to her wrist. “Zoey,” he said, voice carefully neutral. “You okay?” Zoey’s eyes narrowed. “Oh, now you care?” Roland blinked. “What?” “Don’t play dumb,” she snapped, jabbing a finger at him. “You snitched.” I crossed my arms, watching the exchange with mild amusement. Roland had always been terrible at lying under pressure. “I didn’t—” “You told him,” Zoey accused, jerking a thumb
GRAHAMThe scent of pine and wildflowers still clung to the air inside my Jeep, even after she’d vanished into the trees. Frankie. My mate. My wolf had been restless for weeks, aching for even a glimpse of her, and today—today she’d been *close.* Not close enough to touch, not close enough to speak to, but close enough that my lungs burned with the memory of her. I exhaled, leaning back against the seat, my fingers tapping against the leather seat. The pack warriors were spread out nearby, waiting for my signal to move. But for now, I just wanted to savor this—the quiet, the lingering trace of her, the way my pulse had finally slowed for the first time in months. Then— Knock. Knock. Knock. I turned my head, and my breath caught. Zoey. Her hair was piled messily on top of her head, loose strands framing her face. A hospital bracelet dangled from her wrist, and there was a faint bruise blooming along her temple. She looked exhausted. She looked alive.I rolled down the window
ZOEYI stepped out of the café, the door swinging shut behind me with a satisfying click. The air outside was crisp, fresh—unlike the suffocating, latte-scented tension I’d just left behind. Charlie’s words still prickled under my skin, but for once, I didn’t care. I’d won that round. Hannah and Lily were waiting for me across the street, their faces etched with a mixture of curiosity and nervousness. Why were they nervous? Hannah waved enthusiastically, nearly smacking a passerby in the face. Classic. Time to go back to the pack, I thought, grinning. Back to Graham—BAM. Something hit me. Hard. One second, I was mid-step, feeling victorious. The next, the world spun, tilted, and then— Black.--- Beep. Beep. Beep.My eyelids felt like they’d been glued shut. I groaned, trying to lift my arm, but something tugged at my hand. What the—? I forced my eyes open, blinking against the blinding white light. Sterile walls. A weird plastic tube sticking out of my arm. A machine b
**GRAHAM**He nodded sagely. "Yep. Left a while ago." My grip on the pen tightened. "And where, exactly, did they go?" Rowand shrugged. "Human world, apparently. Something about Hannah’s friend having a baby." The pen snapped in my hand. Ink splattered across the desk. Rowand blinked. "Uh. You good?" I stood up so fast my chair nearly toppled over. "They what?" Rowand leaned back, holding his hands up. "Hey, don’t shoot the messenger! I just thought you’d want to know—" "Who let them leave?" My voice was dangerously low. Rowand swallowed. "Uh. Ronald?" I stormed out of the office, Rowand scrambling after me. "Graham, wait—" I didn’t wait. The packhouse was bustling as usual—warriors chatting, kids running around, the usual chaos. But right now, all I could focus on was the fact that my mate—well, technically my mate’s human form, who I was still trying to figure out how to handle—had waltzed into the human world without so much as a by your leave. I found Ron
**GRAHAM** The pack council chamber smelled like old leather and older wolves. The elders sat around the massive oak table, their faces carved from generations of bad decisions and worse tempers. And right in the middle of it all, like a peacock in a den of wolves, stood Kelvin Walker—Alpha of Moonstone, cheater of mates, and current pain in my ass. He’d stormed in unannounced, demanded an audience after accusing me of stealing his mate, and now here we were. "Alpha Graham," Kelvin began, his voice dripping with false diplomacy, "I come before your council to address a grave injustice." I leaned back in my chair, arms crossed. "Get to the point, Kelvin. Some of us have actual work to do." His eye twitched. "You stole my mate." The room went dead silent. Then Elder Fergus, who was roughly as old as dirt and twice as dusty, coughed into his fist. "That’s a serious accusation, Alpha Kelvin. Best tread carefully." Kelvin ignored him, jabbing a finger in my direction. "Zoey
CHAPTER EIGTHYZOEYThe moment I collided with Charlie in the supermarket, my blood ran cold. Her smile was all teeth—sharp, practiced, and utterly fake. “Zoey,” she cooed, like we were long-lost sisters instead of bitter enemies. “What a surprise.” I forced my fingers to unclench from the bag of chips I was holding. “Charlie.” She tilted her head, eyes flicking over me with that familiar, calculating gleam. “You look… different.” A pause. “Alive. I honestly thought Silvercrest would’ve killed you by now.” I matched her smile, just as hollow. “Disappointed?” She laughed, light and airy, like we were sharing a joke. “Oh, Zoey. Always so dramatic.” Then, without missing a beat, she looped her arm through mine like we were best friends. “Come on. Let’s catch up. There’s a café next door.” I wanted to rip my arm away. I wanted to scream. But Hannah and Lily were already watching us with wide eyes, and the last thing I needed was a scene. So I let her drag me out of the store
