ASTER
As soon as the last guest left, I scooped Valeria into my arms and gently carried her to my car. Once I settled her down, I closed the door and joined her at the driver’s seat. But I didn’t drive off. Instead, I took her hands in mine and leaned forward. Tilting her chin up, I planted a tender kiss on her forehead.
“I’ve booked us a flight to Texas for our honeymoon,” I said softly, eager for the time when I would finally claim her.
She pulled away suddenly, her eyes were filled with shock. I saw fear in her pupil, as though the idea of leaving terrified her.
“I don’t want to go anywhere. I love it here. We can have our honeymoon within the pack, in your father’s house,” she said.
“Why?” I asked, my gaze darkened. This was the second time she had insisted on staying with my family

LINNETAfter I watched the masked man stride away the same way he had come, my whole body burned up, as though I had been thrown into a fire. My legs weakened beneath me, barely able to hold me up. Gradually, the night darkened, and a chilling wind began to blow, carrying with it a strange and frightening noise that sent shivers down my spine. Then, suddenly, I heard a terrifying, whispery sound accompanied by a gentle breeze.“Linnet,” someone called my name from behind. I jolted in fear and turned around, only to see a woman clothed in white long gown, which flowed down her feet, covering every inch of her toes. Her disheveled hair framed her face, and blood dripping from her eyes like tears. I have never seen anything like that since I was born.I froze in terror. My breath hitched, and my heart pounded wildly as I recognized her—Evelyn. Even though I was a wolf, I had never believed in ghosts. But there she was, Evelyn’s ghost, standing before me in the darkness, staring at me

VALERIAI watched as Linnet fell back asleep, I smiled at myself. She had no idea what I have been feeding her with and it has started taking impact and soon, she will be ruined forever.I glanced at Aster, who seemed surprised by how quickly her fever had dropped.“Thank you for helping Linnet” he said. Aster still finds it difficult to call her sister.“It’s nothing. Beside she’s my sister-in-law now,” I replied.Aster took my hand, and we quietly left the room. Unfortunately, apart from our private living room and gym , Linnet’s room was the only other room on the same floor with ours and we are the only ones who came for her rescue."What about her husband?" I asked Aster as we headed towards our apartment."The bastard wasn't even here to take care of his wife, that's why I hate being an Alpha" he said, and frowned."Hope you won't abandon me like that in the future?" Aster stopped and stared at me seriously then squeezing my hands he said."I will never abandon you Val. You wil

VALERIAAs I stepped out of my room the next morning, I met Linnet, dressed impeccably as always. Her beautiful face looked pale, and she seemed weak—far too innocent and humble, something that had never been in her nature before."Linnet, how are you doing today?" I asked as I approached her.She smiled weakly. "Better than last night. Thanks for helping me.""It's nothing. I'm glad I could help.""It seems you're going somewhere?" she asked."I'm going to my studio. I have some work to do."Linnet looked at me in surprise. "Aren't you supposed to be on your honeymoon?"I chuckled. "Those things aren't for me. Besides, Aster is okay with it. If you don't mind, I have to get going.""Hmm, please, can I come along with you? I feel bored and need some fresh air."I looked at Linnet, wishing I could squeeze her little neck. How could she even think of coming close to me? I didn't know what this woman was up to, but I wouldn't let her get any closer."I'm sorry, Linnet, maybe some other t

"This is amazing! How did you get this?" I asked my face filled with smiles."I prepared these documents with your lawyer a few days ago. I knew Cornello would try something stupid during the coronation, so I watched him. I followed him to Shadow-Moon’s backyard, where he tried to force Linnet into an affair. I stepped in just in time, stopped them, and made them sign away their shares.""This is very impressive, Ryder. I will reward you handsomely."Ryder’s face darkened. "I don’t need any rewards from you. I have plenty of money. All I want is to see the Shadow-Moons crushed to the ground and their lives in misery. I’m doing this for my parents. Once this job is done, I’m going back to Texas."I was left speechless, so I did the only thing I could think of—I hugged him and whispered, "Thank you."My phone rang, making me pull away from Ryder. I picked up the device and saw Aster’s name flash

The other lady, who seemed interested in the gossip, was uncomfortable to listen due to the environment they were in. She turned to Eunice and pointed at the items she had chosen, and booked appointments for her makeup. After paying, she hurried out of the store before her companion could say anything more terrible.I smiled. Linnet was behaving strangely and it got the people talking. It's only a matter of time before I sent her to the psychiatrist.I returned home late in the evening, and Aster was waiting for me. As soon as I walked in, he pulled me into his arms."You look tired," he said."I'm exhausted," I replied.After the pack women left, a flood of customers arrived, all needing their hair and makeup done. Then, I had to attend a business meeting with a representative from Great Stars Entertainment for a contract signing. They wanted me to be the costume designer for their upcoming movie. It was one of the largest and most successful entertainment companies in the country

For a split second, the room remained silent before murmurs began to spread."Do you have any problems with that?" Aster asked, his voice chilling. His eyes darkened as he stared at Cornello with such intensity that the man was forced to look away."Hmm, not that I have an issue with your decision," Zanto, one of the council members I had asked Ryder to investigate, said. "But Darius can no longer hold any office in this pack because of what happened in the past."Zanto was the one who had laughed the hardest when Cornello called me a lunatic after I reported the atrocities the Shadow Moons committed against my pack to the council. He had sneered, claiming lunacy ran in my bloodline. Watching him speak now, I was reminded of that laughter, and I couldn't wait to return the favor when his downfall came.Before Zanto could finish, his companion Francis stood up."We can't allow this! Darius' family has no right to hold such a position of power in thi

“And I want my own office. As the Luna of this pack, I have my own special agenda, and I can't wait to start working.”This time, there was no smile on Aster's face. He was neither angry nor happy—just shocked and surprised.ASTERI had never noticed the allure Valeria carried until now. She looked beautiful yet cold, her eyes bottomless—like an immortal fairy who had come to live among mortals. Her light golden hair gleamed, highlighting her ocean-blue orbs. She curled her bright red lips, and my heart twitched."Damn, I'm so lucky to be her husband," I thought to myself.“My Luna will have whatever she wants. She will serve side by side with me. I trust everyone understands this?” I said.The council members nodded in agreement. Lanzo, Bernard, and Oscar—the three council members from the weaker packs—did not object. Not that their opinions mattered much; the real power lay with Cornello, Zanto, and Francis, the three council members from the wealthy and dominant packs.Before I cou

Cornello was dumbstruck. When had he slapped me? How?“Please believe me, my Alpha. I didn’t do anything to her! I swear I didn’t slap her!”I cried harder. “Look at my face. Who else could have hit me just now?”Aster’s eyes darkened. He had heard the sound of a slap and I was alone with Cornello. When he looked at my face, he saw the imprint of five fingers on my cheek. His expression turned red with fury.In an instant, Aster grabbed Cornello by the shirt and struck him hard across the face. Cornello staggered backward, but before he could fall, Aster seized him again and landed another punch—this time knocking out two of his teeth.The other council members rushed in and restrained Aster.“You dare lay your filthy hands on my queen?” he roared, his chest heaving with rage. Oscar and Bernard flinched at the sound.Aster tried to wipe my tears, but when he touched my

“She has everything to do with this,” Darius hissed without looking back. He continued brushing his hand through the girl’s hair, his tone sharpening like a blade. “You came into our land. You threatened our people. You thought there’d be no consequences?”He gripped the back of the girl’s neck, wrenching a cry from her lips.“You fucker! Stop it!” Emos shouted, trying again to break free.But the ropes held.Darius turned his head slightly, his voice now thick with contempt. “You dared come here to hurt our daughters. And now you beg me to spare yours?” He shook his head. “Why should I show mercy when you showed none?”The two adult women and the the boy stood frozen in horror as Darius manhandled the girl, their eyes wide and helpless.Emos’s gaze darted around the room, frantic, desperate for help—anything that could turn the tide. But Miguel and Alex stood still, arms behind their backs and their expressions unreadable. No help would come from them.Defeated, Emos dropped his head

“Because,” I said coldly, “my man shattered your spine.”Darius grinned wickedly.Without wasting another word on him, he turned to the second man. This one was quieter, more composed, but clearly in pain. His dark hair was tied into a ponytail, and tattoos covered his broad chest and arms. His sharp blue eyes fixed on Darius with silent defiance.The brown-haired one started thrashing again, desperate and futile. Even paralyzed, he tried to fight. He pulled against the restraints until his energy finally drained and his body sagged forward in defeat.“Now that that’s over with,” Darius muttered.He dragged a chair across the room and positioned it directly in front of the man with the ponytail. Then he sat down, one leg crossed over the other, and leaned back, studying his prey like a predator deciding when to strike.“Do you know who I am?” he asked softly.The man said nothing, his jaw tight, teeth grinding in pain. He refused to look away, but he wasn’t speaking either. I’d dealt

“Then make them talk,” I thundered, slamming my hand down on the desk. “Don’t make me think you’re useless, Darius.”The words echoed in the small room like a threat, and the tension thickened. My glare sharpened, my eyes darkened with the weight of my power. A frosty energy rippled through the air, curling into the corners of the room like smoke.But Darius didn’t flinch.Not because he was defying me, but because something in my outburst sparked a memory—something from a life he once lived, a title he once bore. The shadows deepened, swallowing the light, and I felt a sweaty drip on my forehead despite the cold.He clenched his fists, jaw tight, teeth grinding with a sound that filled the heavy silence between us. For a moment, we stared at each other, locked in thought—me, simmering with barely restrained anger, and him, standing with quiet resolve.Then, slowly, a small smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, softening the tension like a sudden breeze.The darkness receded.And

I kissed her gently, her soft breaths growing steady as sleep claimed her. She curled around me like an octopus, wrapping herself around my body, drawing in my warmth as if it could chase away the ghosts of the night. I sighed, staring at the ceiling, the guilt settling deeper in my chest. I felt worse than I had before—worse than I deserved. Claiming her had been selfish, cruel even. And it had been her first time.Carefully, I slipped out of bed, unable to bear the weight of my guilt. My feet carried me toward the woods, blindly, instinctively, running until dawn began to stain the sky with pale light.I was just returning to my lounge, the chill of morning clinging to my skin, when Darius called. His voice was urgent. Our pack was under attack.This would be my first battle as Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack.Darius had been on patrol when he spotted the rogues. He’d rushed ahead to the scene and urged me to bring reinforcements. As I sprinted toward the pack house to arm myself, I ca

ASTERI looked at Valeria’s face as it battered in blood; her once smooth and flawless face turned brutal and masked with the blood of the rouge's, which made it look even more alluring. I wanted to touch her, to have her there and now, but she refused saying she was filthy. Did she know how intoxicating that word is? Yeah, I love my women filthy in every bedroom sense.Thinking of these, my heart clenched as I recall last night when she sat so close to my brother Darren. I can't stop feeling that she is drawn to Darren, or rather, Darren was drawn to her. Such thinking makes my heart clenched. When I came back home from the office last night and couldn't find her, I had to call her line more than twenty times. She left us at the hospital and rushed off, and I thought she was devastated because of Linnet's health condition and needed some time alone to process it, so I let her be, but when it passed midnight, and she wasn't home, I became worried and started calling her line. I

VALERIA My words must have caught Aster off guard. He stared at me for a beat, then a slow, dark smile crept onto his lips. His fingers grazed my cheek.“Alright then,” he murmured. “Let’s finish this.”He halted in front of a heavy steel door, punched in a string of numbers, and with a metallic click, the lock disengaged. The door swung open to reveal a private armory—walls lined with weapons, each one deadlier than the last. The room smelled of oil and blood, as if it had witnessed violence too often.Aster strode forward, selecting his gear with chilling efficiency. Guns, blades, explosives. War lived in his bones.“Take what you need,” he said, his voice low, urgent.I didn’t need to be told twice. I reached for the knives—long, silver, and razor-sharp. I’ve always preferred steel that sings when it meets flesh. There's something intimate about killing up close, about watching the light fade from your enemy's eyes. I strapped on as many as I could carry, changing swiftly into gear

By morning, my body ached in places I didn’t know could ache.Damn that wild animal. Aster had ravaged me in the most wicked way—and I had loved every second of it.The room was quiet when I woke, but he was gone. I forced myself out of bed and dragged my sore body into the bathroom. After a long shower, I returned to find breakfast waiting, delivered by the new chef, Enzo. I didn’t have the energy to face the Shadow Moons today.When Enzo returned to collect the tray, he handed me a folded note.It was from Thalia.“Meet me in my room in ten minutes.”I smirked. Little bitch, I thought, crumpling the paper and tossing it in the trash.Still, I decided to visit her before heading out to the pack house.Thalia was lounging on the couch sipping some nourishing herbal tea. Like ours, their suite had a separate sitting room, bedroom, private bathrooms, and even a mini kitchen.She looked up and smiled—calculated and fake.“Sit, Valeria,” she said sweetly. I obeyed, watching her carefully.

Darren recoiled instantly, pushing me gently aside as he rose to his feet. His eyes were wide—shock painted across his face.I didn’t have to turn to know who was behind us.Thalia.I wasn’t sure how long she had been standing there, but judging by the tight line of her lips and the distant flicker in her eyes, she'd heard more than enough. My stomach twisted—but not with guilt. Let her feel what I felt two years ago. The pain of betrayal.“Thalia?” Darren stammered, already moving toward her, his voice heavy with panic. “What are you doing here? Aren’t you asleep?”“I had a bad dream,” she murmured, stepping into his arms like she belonged there. “I woke up and couldn’t find you, so I came looking. I was about to head into the kitchen when I heard your voice… Valeria—is she okay?”Her voice trembled—just slightly. Enough to make her sound fragile, concerned and perfectly innocent.She was good.Too good for her acting.And Darren, ever the fool for her, bought it—like he always did.

"Are you really sending me away tonight? You're such a heartless brother-in-law.""You should have thought of that before trying to seduce me," Eric said coldly, walking into the house without sparing me another glance.I smiled faintly and turned toward my car. It was clear now—someone else was after Linnet. But who?When I arrived at the Shadow Moon mansion, the whole place was cloaked in silence. It looked deserted, the only signs of life being the guards stationed at the entrance. They nodded in greeting, and I returned the gesture before heading inside.Just as I stepped onto the staircase, I spotted Darren in the hallway. He appeared to be returning to his room but stopped when he saw me. He waited at the top of the stairs until I reached him.“Darren,” I called softly.“Valeria? What are you doing awake at this hour? Are you just getting back?”There was no point denying it. I sighed. “Yes. I went to see Eric. I wanted to know why he abandoned Linnet at such a critical time.”A
