THE ASCENSION; From Omega To Luna
“Marco?" she called, her voice barely above a whisper.
Marco remained silent, he only arched his brow, his expression unreadable. Slowly, everything began to sink in.
"Why?" Her voice trembled as she finally broke the silence that had settled between them. "Why didn't you speak up when you knew the truth, Marco? You could have saved me."
Marco scoffed. "What did you expect me to do?"
"DEFEND ME? PROTECT ME!" She yelled. "That's what you do for someone you love."
Marco’s jaw tightened, and he leaned against the cold, steel bars of the cell. His icy blue eyes bore into hers, but there was no warmth, no love, only a distant glimmer of irritation.
"Ivy," he began, his voice low and filled with everything but love, "I can't tell if you're just naive or plain daft."
"You know I couldn't back you up in front of everyone. I couldn't risk them finding out that I'm mated to an Omega."

Ivy thought she had hit rock when she was falsely accused, added to her mate’s betrayal and then auctioned according to tradition for all female criminals. But when a handsome and mysterious Alpha walked in at the dying moment, wanting her for himself, she must decide whether to leave with him as his personal slave or remain in the pack to go through the last phase of her punishment; which could end up being her last day on earth.
