Chapter One

Lana.I crossed my legs and lifted my chin, schooling my expression to indifference. While, in fact, every part of me was screaming.I will not cry.I will not cry.I will not cry. “There she comes!” Mother clapped her hands as she bounced in her seat like a wolf pup high on moondust. I bit my lip, tearing my gaze from her to my sister. “She looks like a princess. Isn’t she breathtaking?”“Absolutely,” my aunt gushed, elbowing my mother. “And not just a princess, no. A luna.” They weren’t wrong. As much as it felt like a dagger slicing through my heart each time I looked at my sister, I wasn’t going to deny what was right in front of me; she was stunning. She wore her dream wedding gown, a mermaid snow-white dress encrusted with thousands of tiny diamonds. It must have cost a fortune. But, considering she was marrying the alpha of our pack, you couldn’t expect any less. The exact alpha–who, until last week–had been my boyfriend for five years. Until last week, I was convinced he w

Chapter Two

“Miss?” A heavy pressure fell onto my shoulder. “Miss Lunaris?”My eyes shot open to see tall, bushy trees brushing the star-spotted sky until a face popped into view. It was the driver. “Miss, we’ve arrived at your destination.”I pushed up from the backseat to find the car door wide open where my head had been resting. The driver rounded the car to retrieve my luggage, revealing where I would now call home. “You’ve got to be kidding me.”I shifted closer to the open door to get a better look, blinking profusely as if what I saw would spontaneously morph into something better.But no matter how much blinking I did or how many times I repeated under my breath, “This is not happening,” the dark, horror-book-worthy castle still stood firmly erect in front of me. When I lifted my gaze, I could see small, black shapes shooting back and forth over the tiled roof of the castle. “Are those bats?” Just then, a lightning bolt came crashing down on the ground beside the car. Tiny sparks of fl

Chapter Three

“W-what?” I asked, struggling to free my hair from his clenched fist. He barked a bitter laugh, shoving me away. “Makes sense now. I should have known.”I blinked, dazed, and massaged the back of my skull. “What the hell are you on about?”“And there it is.” He swooped closer, baring his teeth. “The Lunaris entitlement.”“I literally have no idea what you’re on about.” I sidestepped him, reaching for one of my bags, but he blocked me. I crossed my arms. “Look—”“I’m going to take a wild guess here,” he leaned in. “Your parents had a problem and now they used blood money to take care of the problem?”My brows furrowed, ignoring the part where he referred to the money as ‘blood money.’ My parents may be a lot of things, but they worked hard for their money. Even if it meant neglecting their kids emotionally while stuffing their hands with cash. “You mean me?”“What else?”He wasn’t wrong about one thing. My parents used a small fortune to get me here and pay for everything I’d need fo

Chapter Four

Helga escorted me to the dining hall and ditched me with a, “Find me after dinner. Have fun!” Then she hurried off, leaving me to the mercy of wide open doors and a massive room filled with students. My eyes shot toward the server bar, and I wondered if I could make it there, grab some food, and find a corner where no one would notice me. Or would I stick out like a sore thumb?There were so many people here that I was sure someone would notice me. And with my luck, it would be the loudest, mouthiest person in the room.I peered over my shoulder, considering finding the girl’s bathroom and hiding there until dinner was over, then head over to Helga. Doubt she’d be any wiser. I was about to choose the latter, turning away from the dining hall and going to look for the girl’s bathroom, when a girl around my age stepped into my view with a wide grin. “You must be Lana?” She swooped toward me, throwing her arms around me in a tight hug. “Hi, nice to meet you. I’m Hattie!”I blew a face

Chapter Five

I followed her gaze to find Chrissy and her two blonde friends walking toward our table, smirks on their faces. In my peripheral, I saw a tall, muscular figure entering the dining hall with a whole entourage of girls trailing after him. My gaze fell on Ryder directly, startled to find him glaring at me. I tore my focus from him to find Chrissy was already standing beside me. Her hands were on her hips, paired with a sour look on her face. “So, you’re the new girl?”I peered up at her, aware she wasn’t here for pleasantries. “Stating the obvious.”“Oh, well,” she snorted a laugh, glancing from one friend to the other, who both mimicked a fake laugh. “She’s as unpleasant as she looks.”From across the table, Hattie sat as still and stiff as a plank, as if she feared any movement would draw Chrissy’s attention. I didn’t blame her. “If I’m that unpleasant, why are you standing here?”She huffed. “Just to lay down some rules for you, as you already seemed to have broken two.”“Huh?” I bl
