Chapter 1:Getting Married

Cynthia’s POVMy best friend is about to marry my crush, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it.I’ve had feelings for Liam since I was little, and it’s my secret. I’ve never told anyone, not even my best friend, Elena.But now, Liam has announced that they are getting married. I struggle to hold back tears, not wanting him to see my pain.“So you’ve fallen in love with her,” I say, trying to keep my voice from trembling.“No!” Liam quickly denies. “Then why are you marrying her?” Elena doesn’t love Liam; we’re best friends, and I know it. So why are they getting married? I’m the one who truly loves Liam. Why?“I need her father’s support. I just became the Alpha of the Blood Moon pack. Things are shaky. The Eclipse pack might launch an attack during this time, and if that happens-” he shivers. “I don’t want to end up like my father, Cynthia.”I purse my lips. He does have a point, I suppose. The Eclipse pack is the largest pack in North America, and they’re the ones who killed Lia

Chapter 2:Shift

Cynthia’s POVI don’t know how long I spend in a haze of pain as my limbs twist and contort, reshaping into those of an animal. When finally, I regain some sense of clarity, I’m shocked by the acute awareness with which I now view the world.‘Hello, Cynthia.’ The ethereal voice echoes in my mind once again.‘You’re my wolf!’ I realize, speaking to the voice through our mind link.‘That I am!’ The voice is playful. ‘My name is Lumina. I’m so happy to meet you.’I pad over to the edge of the lake and stare into the crystal-clear water, where I can see my wolf form for the first time in the beauty of the moon. My fur is fluffy and gray, mottled with white specks, and my eyes are the exact same shade of piercing emerald green.“Oh my goodness, you’re gorgeous!” Elena’s reflection appears in the water next to mind. Her hand ruffles my fur, and it feels surprisingly nice. “Are you ready to turn back yet?”I try to speak, but realize I can’t. I nod instead. “Good. Just focus.” Elena’s voice

Chapter 3:The Attack

Cynthia’s POVAs the first rays of morning sunlight stream into my room, I groan.The pain of being rejected last night had left my whole body sore. Liam had offered to walk me back to my room, but I declined. If he's about to marry Elena, I think it's best to keep my distance from him.I know I should feel happy now – I’m eighteen today. After the Beta Inauguration Ceremony, I'll officially become the Beta of the Blood Moon Pack.It's all in the past now. I encourage myself. Today is a new day, and I'm going to be the best Beta I can be.Morning dew kisses my ankles as I near the top of the hill, where Liam is already waiting. He’s dressed in an Alpha’s traditional attire, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen him look more handsome.“I’m sorry there’s not more of a ceremony for you,” Liam says with a wry smile as I approach. “Normally there would be, but I need to appoint you quickly. You ready?”He catches my eye. I blush and look away. “Born ready.”“Good.” He folds his hands behind hi

Chapter 4:The Beta Girl

POV unknown*** Cliffside ***“No! Cynthia!” Elena cries out, tears streaming down her face. “We can’t lose her!”Liam furrows his brow, staring down at the place where Cynthia fell. He orders his warriors swiftly, like a true Alpha: “Alert everyone in the Blood Moon pack. Get to the cliffs immediately. We need to find Cynthia as soon as possible. GO!”*** Below the Cliff ***Meanwhile, a group of Eclipse pack members–Beta Brooks and two scouts–have just finished their tasks for the day, and they’re on their way back to the Eclipse pack house to deliver their report. “We need to get back as soon as possible,” Beta Brooks informs the scouts. “The Blood Moon pack and the Darkfang pack have a powerful alliance in the works. Our enemies are getting stronger. Tensions between us and the others may start heating up again soon.”The first scout frowns. “Maybe we could break up their alliance somehow?”“I doubt it,” the Beta scowls. “Their alliance is very strong, especially right now. Alpha

Chapter 5:Sweet Lies

Cynthia’s POVA faint headache pulses at the base of my skull. I frown, eyes slowly cracking open. The light of the room is dazzling. Where am I?I glance around and see an Omega maid in the room with me to my left. My chest feels strangely stuffy. I try to sit up, but find myself struggling.“Hello?” I call out to the maid, voice soft.She rushes to my bedside, looking at me somewhat nervously. “I’m sorry, I don’t know…” I trail off. I don't care about that. I lift my arm, and she helps me sit up.“Thanks, I… uh…” What's her name? I don't remember. Do I know her? Maybe I'm just too tired. Why can't I remember anyone?Ice-cold fingers of fear slowly trace their way up my skin.I survey the room again. Everything here feels so unfamiliar. I don’t recognize the room, its unfamiliar furnishings. I don’t recognize the art on the walls or the pain in my limbs. I don’t recognize the bed I’m in.Oh, Moon Goddess, there’s something wrong with me. A hollowness. Something is missing. I can’t p

Chapter 6:Secret Plans

Vikrov’s POV When the maid mindlinks me to tell me the Blood Moon pack’s Beta is awake, I’m more than ready to interrogate her in detail. I’m downstairs in the pack house when I feel a strange presence–the intoxicating scent of my mate. I recognize it for what it is immediately. It catches me off-guard–my mate is somewhere inside the pack house right now. I try to resist my wolf’s urge to go find her immediately, steeling myself against instinct. I’ve been shifted for four years now, and I know every member of my pack personally. If my mate were someone in my pack, I would’ve recognized her a long time ago. Unless… Unfortunately, I have a guess. I walk step-by-step to the room where the captive is being held, and with every step I take, the mate bond grows stronger. I push open the door. Her scent lingers in my nose. The moment I lay my eyes upon her, I know deep in my heart that we’re mates. I’m mates with the enemy. ‘MATE! MATE! MATE!’ My wolf, Tempest, howls incessant

Chapter 7:Delayed

Liam’s POVWe’ve been searching for Cynthia for days now, and we still can’t find her.Elena and I have been heading the search – we’re her two best friends. We both love her. Both the Blood Moon pack and the Darkfang pack have gotten involved. We’ve been doing everything we can to bring her back. I’ve been doing everything I can to bring her back.But it’s no use. I miss her. I miss her desperately. I sigh, staring down at the map in front of me. Another scout enters the room and gives his report–yet another area without Cynthia. I cross it off the map. The scout leaves to go search another location. I bury my head in my hands.Where could she be?The realization that I may never get her back is unbearably painful. What am I supposed to do without her?‘You shouldn’t have rejected her,’ my wolf Aspen says mournfully.‘I had to,’ I argue, but I’m not even sure how much I believe that myself anymore.I remember the way Cythia used to play tricks on me during training when we were you

Chapter 8:Mysterious Man

Cynthia’s POVI’ve been with the Eclipse pack for a few days now, and there’s still a strange, unfamiliar feeling lurking in my heart. I feel no connection with this room, even though Vikrov has assured me it’s mine. It’s odd, though–there’s not a single picture of me in here, or of anyone, for that matter. The dresses in the closet aren’t anything I would choose to wear. There’s no soul in any of the art on the walls. It feels like a hotel, or a guest room. Nice enough, sure. Definitely livable. But there’s not a trace of personality to be found. It makes me terribly upset, of course, but whenever Vikrov comes to visit me, I find myself feeling alright about the whole situation. He gives me the space to be more patient with myself. It’s a welcome change.I’m jolted from my thoughts when the door to my room twists open, and Vikrov steps inside.“Annette?” I ask softly.“It's me, love.” Vikrov’s sexy, relaxed voice approaches me. He comes to my bedside, bending down slowly to plant a

Chapter 9:The Gates of Hell

Cynthia’s POVDon’t go, who are you? I’m just about to see your face…The blurry figure is back in my dreams. I wake up from my uneasy sleep to angry voices.“Wake up!” A sharp voice snaps loudly. “Looks like she's really taking herself as a member of the pack!”“Keep it down, don't let her hear!” a familiar voice cuts in. “Alpha Maverick ordered everyone not to mention her identity.”“Would he really punish me for this captive? I'm—”“Ugh…” I groan, blinking groggily and rolling over. All the voices stop at once.Two Omega maids are standing at the foot of the bed. One of them is familiar from a few days ago–Annette. I don’t recognize the other one, though. How did I end up here?“Who are you?” I ask the maids – mainly the one I don’t recognize. “What are you doing here? What’s going on?”I try to think back. I was out on a walk with Vikrov. It was lovely–he was lovely. He took me outside. All around the pack. He was kind and sweet and loving and gentle and everything I could possib

Chapter 10:“Lessons”

Cynthia’s POV“Where are you taking me?” I ask fearfully as the maids drag me through the halls.I haven’t been to this part of the pack house yet, I don’t think. Vikrov’s only taken me through the main hallways. If I had to guess, I’m being dragged somewhere into the maid’s quarters. These look like servant hallways. Annette just laughs cruelly as my expression contorts from the pain of her handling me. “You’ll see. Don’t worry about it.”They throw me to the floor in front of large double doors that swing open both ways. I struggle back to my feet, but my wounds have reopened, and I can smell the blood starting to seep through my clothes. The maids look at me in disgust as I stand up.“What are you waiting for?” Beth snaps. “Go inside.”Incredibly suspicious of the maids, I hesitate as I shove open the double doors. I’m not sure what sort of torture I was expecting, but the massive, industrial-size kitchen in front of me certainly isn’t it.It’s a massive kitchen, easily suited to
