Guinevere’s POV

The Rituals had been done under the moon, blessed by the moon goddess herself. I had become one with my mate, my one and only love, Hayden Perez.

“I love you,” I whispered to him, my voice barely audible over the night’s gentle breeze. “And I can’t wait to spend forever with you.”

STOP!!!

Someone yelled from the back I turned my eyes widened as I saw Hayden standing there.

“What the hell” I muttered.

If Hayden was there, then who was the man standing in front of me? Slowly, deliberately, he pulled off his mask, revealing a sinister smile that sent a shiver down my spine. A collective gasp erupted from the crowd, their murmurs filled with fear and confusion. My blood turned to ice as I locked eyes with the man’s cold, piercing blue gaze.

No

It couldn’t be. I had just been mated to the most Heartless and Dangerous Rogue

Reagan Keon

****

I felt his soft breaths on my cheeks as he snuggled closer, the gentle rising and falling of his chest, a steady rhythm that matched the beat of my heart. I couldn’t help the smile that tugged at my lips. Today was a special day, a day that had been planned for ages, a day that would be recorded in history as the greatest day ever—a day like no other.

Today marked the unification of two great packs, the Crimson Howl Pack and the Moon Claw Pack. But most importantly, it was the day I would marry the love of my life, Hayden Perez, my mate and the heir to the Alpha of the Moon Claw Pack.

“Morning, my love,” I whispered, my voice barely louder than the soft rustle of leaves outside our window.

Hayden growled playfully, his hands finding my waist as he pulled me even closer. “Five more minutes,” he murmured, his voice husky with sleep.

I chuckled softly, feeling his strong arms tighten around me. "As much as I'd love to stay in bed with you all day, we have a wedding to plan," I said, my voice tinged with both amusement and excitement.

He groaned softly, burying his face into the crook of my neck. "What if we just eloped? Skip all the chaos and keep you all to myself?" he murmured, his lips brushing against my skin, sending a shiver down my spine.

I laughed, gently prying myself from his embrace and turning to face him. His sleepy eyes met mine, a mix of love and playful defiance. "You know we can't do that. Today is too important—for us and for our packs. Besides, I want everyone to see just how perfect we are together."

Hayden sighed dramatically, but his eyes twinkled with amusement. "Fine, fine. For you, I’ll endure the madness."

I leaned in, pressing a tender kiss to his lips. "Thank you, my love. Now, let's get up.” I said my hands grabbing his as I lifted him up. Together we dressed heading out.

As I walked into the Crimson Howl House, I was greeted by a whirlwind of activity. Everywhere I looked, pack members were busy with last-minute preparations. Some were stringing up twinkling lights and colorful banners, while others were meticulously arranging fresh flowers or setting up tables draped in elegant cloths. The air was filled with a mix of laughter, chatter, and the occasional bark of orders, creating a vibrant and bustling atmosphere.

“There you are,” Shayla, my cousin, said as she walked up to me, her eyes wide with urgency. “Why have you been hiding? Luna Brea has been looking for you, and heads up, she’s mad.”

“Thanks,” I said with a smile, trying to steady my nerves as I made my way into the main room.

“Guinevere Andre Reed!”

Yikes. She must be very mad. She only called me by my full name when she was extremely pissed.

“Hi, Mum,” I said, trying to sound as innocent as possible.

“Don’t ‘Hi’ me! You were supposed to be here three hours ago,” she scolded, her eyes narrowing in disapproval.

“Something came up,” I replied, struggling to keep my voice steady. Well, technically not something, but someone—Hayden. There was no way I was going to tell her we were having amazing sex all through the night and barely got any sleep, so we slept in a few extra hours this morning.

“More important than your wedding?” she retorted, her brows shooting up in disbelief.

“Come on, honey, give her some slack,” my father, Alpha Geoffrey, said as he walked up to me and kissed the top of my head.

“Hi, Dad,” I said, smiling up at him.

“Hey, baby girl,” he replied, his voice warm and reassuring. He gave my shoulder a gentle squeeze, his eyes twinkling with amusement.

“You keep encouraging this,” my mother said, gently swatting my dad’s chest with a look of mild exasperation.

“Oh, am I?” he replied with a mischievous grin. “Then should I tell her about our mating ceremony?”

My mother’s cheeks flushed a deep crimson, and she quickly pushed my father towards the door, flustered and embarrassed. “You should leave. We need to get her dressed,” she said, her voice hurried as she practically shoved him out of the room.

My father chuckled, his laughter echoing down the hall as he left. “Alright, alright, I’m going. He said as he walked out.

Now alone with my mother, I turned to her, curiosity piqued. “Okay, now I’m curious,” I said, trying to imagine the tale my father had hinted at.

“Dress now,” she commanded, her tone leaving no room for argument. As she tried to hide her flustered face.

As I stepped towards the ornate dressing screen in the corner of the room, a group of pack members entered, carrying my wedding dress. The dress was a masterpiece of intricate lace and flowing silk, with delicate embroidery that caught the light and shimmered like dew in the morning sun. The sight of it took my breath away, a tangible reminder of the significance of the day.

My mother’s hands were steady and gentle as she helped me into the gown. Her earlier irritation melted away, replaced by a soft, loving smile. “You look beautiful, Guinevere,” she said, her voice thick with emotion. “Just like I always imagined you would on your wedding day.”

I glanced at myself in the mirror, the dress fitting me perfectly, the lace and silk hugging my curves and flowing gracefully to the floor. My heart swelled with a mix of excitement and nervousness. “Thanks, mum,” I whispered, meeting her eyes in the reflection

I love you,”

“I love you too,” she replied, her voice warm and reassuring.

Everything was perfect, and set for the big ceremony but there was one issue.

Where the hell was Hayden?

    Guinevere POVI would say my love for Hayden was love at first sight. Being both Alpha’s children and heirs, there was a connection I felt the moment we first met, and I knew he was the one for me. Growing up together, there was always a comparison between us; being children of such great Alphas, we were given a responsibility that no other kids had experienced. Whenever I felt down, Hayden was there—he was like a light in a tunnel, a happy place to go where I never felt lost. He never judged me and saw me for who I am.I could never forget the day I was chosen to be his Mate. I couldn’t express the feeling I felt. It was as if the moon goddess was rooting for me by giving me the best mate. And now we get to spend forever together.“You look so beautiful,” Shayla exclaimed, entering the room with my sister Abagail in tow.“You’re okay,” Gail added with a shudder, her unique way of expressing admiration.

My father roared, pacing back and forth, his anger palpable."Geoffrey, calm down," my mother urged, her voice soothing yet firm.

I pleaded.She sighed deeply, the weight of her years and wisdom evident. "The ceremony has

    Reagan's POVI stared at the ceiling, her soft breathing filling the room. A gentle reminder of her presence. I turned to look at her, curled up on the couch. How could she sleep so peacefully on that small, uncomfortable piece of furniture? The couch seemed to barely contain her, yet she looked serene as if it were the most comfortable place in the world.Whatever.I laid back down, pulled the blanket up to my chest, and shut my eyes, willing myself to sleep. The events of the day replayed in my mind, each moment making it harder to find rest.Damn it.My eyes snapped open, staring at the dark ceiling once more.EarlierI watched as she looked away from my gaze, giving me space as if she were afraid I might contaminate her. I pulled off my shirt, feeling her eyes on me. She tried to look away, but her gaze slowly ran over my exposed chest, lingering on the large, jagged scar on my chest."Are you done staring?" I asked with a smirk, breaking the tense silence.She cleared her throat,

With everything that had happened, it was nice to finally enjoy a restful night in such a comfortable bed. Wait... bed? Snapping my eyes open, I sat up and looked around. I was in my bed, but the last thing I remembered was falling asleep on the couch. I stared at the couch, piecing it together, and then it hit me. Reagan. With a sigh, I got down from the bed. Today was going to be a good day. It was the day Reagan would stand before everyone to see if the Alpha ring would accept him as the true Alpha. I couldn't help but smirk at the thought of his embarrassed face when the ring rejected him and Hayden claimed his rightful title as the true Alpha—and I, his true Luna. My smile widened. God, if only time could move ten times faster. Glancing around the empty room, I made sure there was no sight of Reagan. Satisfied he wasn't around, I pulled off my c

And I will never forgive those who have hurt me.My hands clenched as the memories surged—the sound of her desperate cries, the sight of blood pouring from her mouth, and most especially, the way she still looked at my father with love even as she died in his hands.Never.I will never forgive.The scene below seemed distant, almost surreal, as I remembered her final moments. The anguish in her eyes, the helplessness I felt, and the betrayal of a man who should have protected her. My heart hardened, the smirk tugging at my lips fueled by a mix of anger and resolve. I leaned in, watching the drama unfold with a detached curiosity.Andrea was there, clearly hurt by the sight of her beloved Hayden wrapped in Shayla's arms. If only she knew what

Tell me what you want me to do if I lose.” I took a step closer, staring directly into his eyes. “If the ring rejects you, I need you to surrender peacefully and apologize to Hayden in front of everyone.” Reagan nodded solemnly. “Deal.” “Now it’s my turn. If the ring accepts me as the true alpha, you must be loyal to me no matter what happens. You must always be on my side,” he declared, his voice steady and resolute. “Okay,” I said, barely concealing my disbelief. I had no intention of taking his words seriously. The ring would never accept a traitor like him. “Is that all?” I asked, arching an eyebrow. He smiled, taking another step closer. “You see, I have a little trust issue.” I couldn’t help but scoff. “I’m pretty sure I’m the one who should be saying that.” “I’m a

The hall erupted with the sounds of werewolves howling, their voices echoing off the stone walls in a symphony of triumph. I looked out at the crowd, my eyes seeking her. Amidst the sea of faces, she stood out, her expression a mixture of shock and disbelief. A smirk tugged at my lips despite the searing pain from the poison coursing through my veins. The ball is in your court, Andrea. What are you going to do? She stared at me, and the moment our eyes locked, she must have seen the flicker of agony I couldn’t completely hide. Determination replaced her shock as she walked towards me, her steps purposeful and unwavering. It was as if time slowed, the noise and movement around us fading into the background. She was the only thing that mattered. Without hesitation, she pulled me in for a kiss. The hall fell silent, the collective gasps and murmurs of the c

Behind her, a shirtless man was reaching for his shirt, a slight smirk on his face.“Oh, I’m...so sorry.” I stammered, instantly regretting my dramatic entrance.“It’s fine,” Alex said, shrugging with a playful smile.The man chuckled, pulling on his shirt. “I should be going,” he said, leaning down to give Alex a quick kiss before slipping out the door.As soon as he was gone, I grimaced, my cheeks hot. “I’m so sorry, Alex, I didn’t know you had company.”She waved her hand, unbothered. “Trust me, it’s fine.

I blinked slowly, feeling groggy as my eyes adjusted to the light. My head throbbed with a dull ache that only seemed to worsen as I sat up."Ugh," I groaned, pressing the heel of my hand to my forehead. "I really need to stop drinking that damn wolf alcohol."As I glanced around the room, a wave of confusion hit me. This was my room at the Shadow Fang pack house. But the last thing I remembered was being at the bar, drowning in alcohol. How did I—My breath caught, and my eyes widened as the memories from last night flooded back. The feel of his hands on mine. His soft lips, the taste of him still fresh in my mind."Please, Reagan... kiss me."I grabbed a pillow and screamed into it, the muffled sound doing little to calm the storm inside me."How could I?!" I muttered, my face burning with shame as I threw the pillow across the room. What the

    Reagan's POVWeeks had passed since the incident with Carlos, and yet, the distance between me and Andrea remained like an insurmountable wall. No matter what I did, I couldn’t hate her. I had tried—tried to pull away, tried to sever the connection we once shared, hoping that the space between us would help my feelings die. But it was futile. Wherever I was, her presence haunted me. I ached to hold her, to pull her close, to feel her soft lips on mine.Every time I saw her in the hallway, the regret in her eyes was unmistakable. She was sorry, that much was clear. The way she offered small smiles, her little efforts to say "hi" in passing—it all spoke of her remorse. But no matter how much I wanted to close the gap, I couldn’t. Not because of the betrayal, but because of something far more dangerous.I sighed, pulling my shirt down to reveal the mark on my chest. The cursed mark.

He carried on with his life, attending meetings, traveling for business concerning the pack, and yet... he never once looked at me. Not a glance, not a word. He made sure to avoid me entirely, no matter where we were, as though I no longer existed.And for reasons I couldn’t explain, that emptiness, that void where his attention used to be, left my heart feeling stifled, as though something vital had been ripped away.I knew I had hurt him. I knew I deserved his anger, his rejection. But this silence, this coldness—it was unbearable. And as my punishment, Jacob was assigned to be my constant shadow, like a watchdog. His presence, hovering behind me, was a constant reminder of Reagan’s mistrust. Every step I took, Jacob was there, his eyes never leaving me.

Who could I possibly ask for help in a situation like this? It was all my fault.I raked my fingers through my hair, groaning in frustration. If only I had listened to Reagan—if only I had given him the chance to explain before things spiraled out of control. The guilt gnawed at me, twisting in my stomach until it was unbearable.Suddenly, I heard the door creak open, footsteps entering the house. The familiar scent hit me before I even saw him.Reagan.I dashed out of my room, my heart pounding as I ran to meet him. But the moment I laid eyes on him, my heart shattered into pieces. He was covered in blood—his clothes, his skin, his hands—all smeared in crimson. He looked drained, barely holding himself together, but what hurt me the most was the rage burning in his eyes."Reag—" I started, my voice trembling.

Carlos glanced at me, then flicked his gaze to Otis, his lips curling into a smug grin."Well, this seems a little unfair, don’t you think? Two against one? I’d say that’s cheating," he sneered, his voice dripping with mockery.I smirked, enjoying the way his anger simmered beneath the surface. "If you’re such a coward," I began, my tone casual but cutting, "then just ask." I glanced over at Otis and gave a sharp nod. "Stand down."Otis hesitated, his eyes widening in disbelief. "Reagan, you can’t be serious—"I cut him off, my voice firm and unyielding. "You don’t intervene. Even if Carlos is slitting my throat, you don’t move." My words barely left my lips when Carlos lunged forward, his fist connecting with my jaw in a brutal blow that sent me crashing into the wall.I groaned as I pulled myself up from the ground.

"I thought that was clear," he said, his gaze shifting to the figure standing beside him, the woman from earlier. "You do remember my friend, right?" He gestured toward her with a sickening nonchalance.I narrowed my eyes at her, recognition dawning as my heart raced. "Just in case you've forgotten," Carlos continued, "this is Amy. A very good friend of mine. And you see, Amy here is going to help me put a hex on you." His grin widened, eyes gleaming with a sa

I’m trying, but it’s like there’s something—someone—blocking the spell. I just can’t track him.” Her voice cracked, the pressure wearing her down.I scoffed, the sound sharp and bitter. “Keep trying.”Otis moved towards me, his face softening in concern. “Rya, maybe we should calm down…”“Cal
