I blinked my eyes and slowly woke up. Yes, it was all just a dream.
“Yes,” I answered from inside the room. I hurriedly opened the door and saw Jo.
“Hey, are you okay?” Jo asked.
“Yes, I’m fine. Sorry if I made you worry.” I gave a weak smile, leaning my head against the door.
“Thank goodness. Last night I was terrified and hid in my room the whole time. When I found out you left the club, I was afraid you wouldn’t come back.” Jo stood on tiptoe to hug me briefly.
I laughed and returned her warm embrace. “No, don’t worry. I’m still happy staying at this club.”
“That’s good then. I’d be so sad if I lost my only friend here.” Jo let go of the hug and sighed in relief.
“No, I’ll stay here,” I said.
“Have you been crying? Your face looks terrible.” Jo frown

GabrielI couldn’t hide my amazement when I saw the person I had been searching for all this time. Standing right in the dim lights of the club, I could see Alexa’s face in perfection. Her wavy brown hair, her soft oval face, her pearly white skin, and her bright gaze. My wolf even recognized Alexa. The shock turned into a burst of joy. My feelings overflowed, and I couldn’t wait to embrace my mate. The graceful Alexa Dawson had returned! “Alexa!” I grinned.Although I couldn’t fathom how the hell she worked as a server in this club. To hell with all of that. As long as she returned to Silver Moon as Luna, no one would know about her past as a waitress here. “Excuse me, sir. Here is your room key,” she said, handing us a key.Huh? I had called her name, but she ignored me and handed me the room key. My joy turned into shock mixed with anger. This woman didn’t acknowledge me? I grabbed Alexa’s wrist as she handed me the key. My breath was heavy with anger at her indifference toward

AlexaJo saw me pass by, and she furrowed her brows as if asking how I was. Earlier, I was saved because Jo called Mr. Moris to stop Alpha Gabriel in the front lobby. Not wanting to worry her again, I nodded to signal that I was fine. Yes, I could still control the situation. ‘Can you control your feelings?’ Mythril snorted. I bit the inside of my cheek to suppress the itch to argue with Mythril. Once I reached the kitchen, I clutched the tray. My body leaned against one side of the double kitchen doors. My blood rushed to the tips of my fingers. Earlier this afternoon, I never expected to meet Alpha Gabriel again here. I knew somehow Alpha Alastair would come back, but Alpha Gabriel was a horrible surprise. For me, this encounter was far too soon. Back when I was forced to leave the pack, I thought our reunion would take place in five to seven years. Maybe then, we would fight in endless battle so I could take revenge on my stepmother and stepsister. Who would have thought he’d a

Since noon, I had lost myself in thought in the passenger seat. My elbow rested on the edge of the Rider’s window while my gaze kept scanning for Brianna’s figure. In my mind, perhaps I could find her if I kept watching the roadside.I returned to the Southern Star Club, but the result was daunting. Brianna had not come back to the club, and Mr. Moris had received no news. I could only hope the money I promised Mr. Moris would be enough to ensure he brought Brianna back to me.“Alpha Romero, the packhouse called and is looking for us. All the invited meeting guests have arrived and are waiting.”Hearing that, I exhaled a long sigh. Beta Julius wasn’t able to assist much in finding Alexa, either. Whether her name was Brianna or Alexa, I didn’t care anymore. I only wanted one thing—to meet that girl again and marry her in the proper celebration.“Yes, let’s go ho

AlexaFrom the aura of Gabriel and Romeo, I knew they were now each preparing for a battle. They sharpened their energies to release their auras, vying for dominance in this area.For some reason, their negative auras drew in the negative energy surrounding the narrow space. Clouds thickened, blocking the weakened moonlight. A faint rumble from the sky hinted that rain would soon fall.‘This is bad! What should I do?’‘You know what to do, Alexa,’ Mythril growled.‘No, maybe I can still stop them.’That was my plan. But it was even more difficult for me to breathe, stuck between the two opposing forces. Both Alphas were assessing and testing each other’s abilities through their energies.Even Alpha Romero was ready to fully transform into his wolf form. It started with his eyes glowing brighter, his claws and fangs extending, and his short fur grew all over his body.This was n

RomeroThe other Alpha leapt onto a closed dumpster, then kicked several trash cans toward me. My arm swung to block the oncoming cans. The cans slammed into the wall, rolled to the ground, and hit the wall again.It wasn’t just one. This time, he kicked another can toward me. Again and again, I jumped to the side to dodge the cans. The clanging sounds echoed, waking up people inside the club.“Coward!”I spat and jumped onto the dumpster with a high leap. When we were close again, I lunged to bite his calf. He anticipated my move and dodged once more.After fighting him for a while, I could read the patterns. This bastard avoided my punches rather than blocking them. Just as I suspected, he preferred dodging to striking.This time, I feinted. When my left fist swung, the man moved to my right side to dodge. With my sharp right claw, I clawed his shoulder, stopping his movement. He cried out as blood flowed from hi

AlexaThe rain fell like a natural shower from the sky. My clothes and pants were soaked. The cold water pierced every pore of my skin, making my body shiver with cold.My steps were slow and aimless, trudging through the slippery and muddy roads at the edge of this small town. No one dared to leave their houses at night. No one wanted to encounter the magical creatures they assumed were thugs.The dim streetlights were blurred by the rain, creating an illusion of blinding light. Both my arms wrapped around my body as tightly as possible. The sound of my sobs was drowned out by the deafening noise of the rain.‘It’s all over.’‘No! This is just the beginning! You can now fully transform!’ Mythril assured me with an enthusiastic shout.‘But Alpha Gabriel was injured.’‘Oh, please. He’s a werewolf and will recover in just a matter of days.’ Mythril rolled her eyes.

AlexaI didn’t understand why they had been so scared. My body burned as if set aflame. Pain spread through every part of me, even to the roots of my hair.It had felt like every strand of my hair had been pulled out. My ears rang, and an excruciating pain had torn through my chest.My breath came in heavy pants as I watched my hands grow huge, covered in thick black fur. Sharp claws bursted out, ripping through my fingertips. I howled in agony.My vision spun, bright and chaotic, making me dizzy. I needed to stop the pain. Someone, help me!I roared, my massive hands swinging around, seeking help. Instead of warm hands reaching out, people ran, screaming to get away.“Help!” Lorraine shrieked, collapsing to the ground. She stared at me, terrified, unable to stand. “No! Don’t come near me, monster!” Lorraine trembled in fear. The shock on her face was priceless.

AlexaBack to present day…Tears flowed as heavily as the rain pouring from the sky. Now I remembered everything. The fact that my father died of a heart attack was nonsense. Mrs. Geeny modified some of my memories because the truth was too bitter to process, almost driving me insane.The binding chain was a form of emotional and memory modification. Now the chains on my wolf were broken. I, who had undergone a perfect transformation, realized the weight of my sins, the immense guilt of Mythril, and how despicable I was in the eyes of the Silver Moon Pack members.No wonder my stepmother was eager to drive me out of the Dawson family home. It made sense that Alpha Gabriel did not flinch when my stepmother sold me off. I was the sinner.My chest grew unbearably tight, squeezing my heart. My steps halted by the roadside, and my knees buckled as I absorbed all the terrible memories again. I wailed under the torrential rain, hoping it would erase me from the earth.The screech of car tire

The Supreme Luna 47: Face to Face
Harlow‘What?!’ Eldritch was shocked in sync with Alexa’s words through our mind link. ‘Have you gone mad?’Yeah, maybe I was insane. I told the only mate I found, the one I cherished, to accept another man’s proposal.I should have realized it earlier—our statuses were worlds apart. Alexa had always been rumored to become Luna since she was the only woman of pure alpha blood at the right age. Not to mention, everyone in the pack knew about the deep bond between Alexa and Gabriel since childhood.To me, she was off-limits. Even though my heart throb in pain, crushing the last fragment of my feelings, Alexa was his all along. Hell, Alexa even only noticed my existence when I helped her escape from Blood Moon’s prison. And that was only because Alpha Gabriel asked for my help.‘What do you mean, Harlow? Tell me it’s not true that you just told me to accept Gabriel.’ Even though Alexa’s roar echoed in my head, I remained silent. I swallowed, trying to moisten my throat, which turned dry
The Supreme Luna 46: Choices
AlexaMy heart sank upon hearing that threat. My eyes widened, and my breath hitched as I listened to how he planned to kill the people who meant so much to me.‘How dare he!’ Mythril growled in displeasure at my mind.“You can’t do that, Gabriel,” I said, emphasizing his name.I called him by his first name, without the honorific Alpha. Even if it was just a small gesture, I clung to the hope that he would see himself as my childhood friend again—rather than the cold-blooded killer disguised as the Alpha he becomes.I narrowed my eyes at him, but he didn’t flinch. His jaw was tense, and he glared back at me.“Yes, I can. I am the Alpha,” he said, stepping closer to me.Hearing his arrogant words, I scoffed. “If being an Alpha makes you this cruel, you should have failed the test back then.”My words popped his patience. In the next second, he gripped my throat. Without realizing it, I was backed against the window, my head pressing against the glass. My airway was blocked by his fing
The Supreme Luna 45: His Threats
Alexa“You ignored me when I was dragged away by the debt collectors. You sent Harlow in to save me alone,” I grumbled.“Why? Were you afraid a single hair on your head would be harmed because of me?” My voice was quick, spoken in one breath.“It’s not like that, Alexa. Alpha Alastair’s defenses were tight. Only Harlow was skilled enough to find a hidden way into Blood Moon Pack territory and sneak in. All the guards would have sounded the alarm if they saw me,” Alpha Gabriel explained in a low voice.“What about yesterday? You spread a bounty across the entire land to capture me. Don’t deny it—I saw the announcement myself.” My index finger lifted in front of his face, stopping him just as he was about to open his mouth.“Alexa, honey, that’s because I’ve been looking for you for the past two years. The Moon Goddess told Mrs. Geeny that I would find you this week if I put in all my effort,” he gave yet another unreasonable excuse.“Don’t honey me! I’m not a bee,” I barked at him.“Fi

AlexaI stood frozen as I watched Lorraine. She was furious with her lips pressed together. Her breath was heavy, and she focused on my reddened eyes.“I knew you were eavesdropping. Shocking, isn’t it?” She threw a document with a hospital discharge form at me.‘Oh wow, we’re screwed.’My lips opened and closed, searching for an excuse to say so she might forgive me. But in reality, no sentence could form to cover up what I had done.“How was it? You must have been laughing at me behind my back.”“No!” I defended myself.“Yes, you did. Isn’t that what you’ve always done?” She narrowed her eyes.“I never...” I shook my head.She scrutinized every corner of my face. Her jaw was still tight, as if holding back anger she couldn’t express. Then, her fingers lifted and twisted a few strands of hair at the side of my
The Supreme Luna 43: Stepsister
AlexaTwo years ago…I opened my eyes and saw the high white ceiling, the white walls, and the small bed. Ah, I must have been in the hospital. I recognized this room from how often I had been treated here since I was a child.I raised both my hands, and they were back to normal. I forced myself to sit up. My finger clutched the hospital gown that had been put on me. I peeked through it. My brows furrowed, as there were no bruise marks at all. All the scars from training had disappeared.The moonlight waned, reflecting from the gaps in the window. When I glanced at the clock, it was already three in the morning. No, it wasn’t a dream. It had been a week since my dad passed away, but I still couldn’t call on my wolf.Why I couldn’t shift to my wolf's form, just like other kids? Why didn’t I remember any of it? My ritual must have miserably failed.The door to the room opened, making a small cre
The Supreme Luna 42: Back to Square One
Alexa“No!” I cut off her words. “I will leave this place. Go far away from all the prophecies and intrigues that give me nothing but burdens in life. I will meet Mr. Pascoe, straighten out my issues with him, take my family’s wealth, and then leave here.”My voice roared behind my gritted teeth, and my breath hitched. Harlow and Mrs. Geeny froze, staring at me in confusion as if I had gone mad. Or maybe I really had gone mad.“Besides, I have more than one potential Alpha mate, so the girl in the prophecy is clearly not me,” I blurted out.Upon hearing my confession, Harlow’s jaw tightened. I stared at him as if I were making a confession of sin. Ah, damn it. I hadn’t told him anything about having multiple mates.A single tear pooled at the corner of my eye. The heat in my eyes spread to my fingers, creating a pain that seemed to squeeze my heart. My hands clenched at my sides. I searched for the courage to support my next words.“I’m sorry, Harlow. I found other potential mates bes
The Supreme Luna 41: Hidden Prophecy
AlexaMy breath was caught when I heard those words. No, it was not a question full of hesitation thrown by someone who knew nothing. Mrs. Geeny’s words sounded strong and full of conviction, as if it was absolute truth.No one spoke. Harlow just sat frozen in his chair. My jaw dropped, and slowly, I took a breath.“Say it again?”“You are The Supreme Luna.” Once again, Mrs. Geeny said it without hesitation.“How—? Why—?” I held my breath, unable to form a complete question.Her grip was still tight, squeezing my hand. Her gaze even softened with a gleam of fervent hope in her eyes. She got up, went to the bookshelf, took an old-looking book, and sat back in front of me. She opened a marked page.“I’m sure you remembered this book, the ancient heirloom passed down from my ancestors. Inside, there were various spells and instructions for magical rituals. One of them was the prophecy about the Supreme Luna. Only those with magical talent could read it.”She smiled with a flushed face th

Alexa“I had seen it, you know?” I protested.“Yes, but you don’t need to look at it any longer than that,” Harlow muttered in a low voice as he turned my body around to face away from it. “Stay here. I’ll check it out first.”I knew he only wanted to protect me, but he should have known that a few blood spatters wouldn’t shake my resolve. My eyes were used to seeing bloody battles, though I had never seen as much as that corpse had. Still, I obeyed my mate—he might have known better.Something was wrong. The stench grew stronger, making my head dizzy. My stomach churned at the fleeting sight I had caught earlier, as if the image imprinted in my long-term memory. The sound of Harlow’s footsteps echoed through the small cave with its dried-up water channel.“What happened to him, Harlow?” I asked, trying to distract my senses from the scent that was making my heart race.‘Curiosity killed the cat, you know?’ Mythril disagreed with my digging deeper into the discovery of that corpse.‘G

Alexa“Here we are!” Jack exclaimed in excitement behind the wheel of the van.We arrived at the nearest bus stop from the western border area of Silver Moon. To avoid the stricter eastern border guards, we had to take the only safest remaining land route.“Thank you, Jack,” I said with a wide smile.I thanked Jack for being willing to take us with his old Rider van. It took more than six nonstop hours with the Rider from the Rogue settlement to the Silver Moon border.Throughout the journey, Jack kept eating to replenish his energy. He insisted on not switching drivers, arguing that Harlow needed to stay in prime condition to carry me out of the Silver Moon area—just in case. Even though they had a brief argument, Harlow eventually gave in. He let Jack exhaust his energy to take us before the full moon appeared.“Thanks, Jack. Appreciate this,” Harlow said to his friend.“No problem! Come on. Don’t waste more time,” he cheered.Harlow and I got out of the van. We prepared our respect
