The pack house had never looked more beautiful. Golden lights cascaded from the ceiling like fallen stars, and white roses—my favorite—adorned every surface in celebration of our mate ceremony anniversary. Three years. Three years since Reid Walker, Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack, had marked me as his Luna before the Moon Goddess herself. I smoothed the silver fabric of my ceremonial dress, the one I'd worn on our marking night, and touched my still-flat stomach where our secret grew. Tonight was supposed to be perfect. Tonight, I would tell Reid about the pup we'd created together, the heir he'd always dreamed of. Pack members filtered into the great hall, their voices a warm hum of celebration. The she-wolves complimented my dress, the males bowed respectfully to their Luna. Everything was exactly as it should be—except for the glaring absence of the one person who mattered most.

Chapter 1 of Rejected Mate's Revenge

The pack house had never looked more beautiful. Golden lights cascaded from the ceiling like fallen stars, and white roses—my favorite—adorned every surface in celebration of our mate ceremony anniversary. Three years. Three years since Reid Walker, Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack, had marked me as his Luna before the Moon Goddess herself.

I smoothed the silver fabric of my ceremonial dress, the one I'd worn on our marking night, and touched my still-flat stomach where our secret grew. Tonight was supposed to be perfect. Tonight, I would tell Reid about the pup we'd created together, the heir he'd always dreamed of.

Pack members filtered into the great hall, their voices a warm hum of celebration. The she-wolves complimented my dress, the males bowed respectfully to their Luna. Everything was exactly as it should be—except for the glaring absence of the one person who mattered most.

Where was Reid?

I checked the ornate clock above the fireplace. Eight-thirty. The ceremony should have started thirty minutes ago. My wolf, Sage, paced restlessly beneath my skin, sensing my growing unease.

'He'll be here,' I whispered to her, but even my inner voice lacked conviction.

The pack's Beta, Marcus Stone, approached with an uncomfortable expression that made my stomach clench. His usual confident demeanor had cracked, revealing something that looked dangerously close to pity.

"Luna Christina," he said, his voice carefully measured. "I need to speak with you."

The noise of the celebration seemed to fade as dread settled in my chest like a stone. "Where is Reid, Marcus?"

He glanced around the room, then leaned closer. "There's been an incident. Aitana Porter was attacked by rogues near the eastern border. She's... she's badly injured."

Aitana. The name hit me like a physical blow. Reid's childhood friend who had returned to our pack six months ago, claiming she needed sanctuary after her previous pack was destroyed. The she-wolf with the golden hair and innocent blue eyes who somehow always seemed to need Reid's personal attention.

"And Reid?" My voice came out steadier than I felt.

Marcus's jaw tightened. "He's with her. The injuries are severe—possible internal bleeding. He couldn't leave her side."

Couldn't leave her side. On our anniversary. While our pack waited to celebrate the bond the Moon Goddess had blessed us with.

The carefully constructed joy of the evening crumbled around me. Pack members continued their conversations, oblivious to the fact that their Alpha had abandoned his Luna on the most sacred night of their mated life.

"How long ago?" I asked, my Luna training keeping my voice level despite the growing ache in my chest.

"Two hours," Marcus admitted, and I saw the shame in his eyes. Two hours. Reid had known about this celebration for weeks, had helped me plan every detail, and he'd left two hours ago without so much as a word to me.

"I see." I turned away from Marcus, my hands instinctively moving to my stomach where our unborn pup rested, unaware that their father had already chosen another she-wolf over their mother.

Sage whimpered in my mind, feeling the sharp stab of betrayal through our mate bond. This wasn't the first time Reid had dropped everything for Aitana's emergencies. There had been the twisted ankle during her morning run that required his personal attention. The nightmares from her "traumatic past" that only Reid could soothe. The dizzy spells that struck whenever I was spending time with my mate.

But tonight was different. Tonight was sacred.

"Luna, perhaps we should postpone—" Marcus began.

"No." The word came out sharper than I intended. "The pack has gathered. We'll proceed without the Alpha."

Marcus looked uncertain. "Are you sure? The elders might—"

"The elders can speak to me directly if they have concerns," I said, letting a hint of Luna authority creep into my voice. "I won't disappoint our pack because my mate chose to tend to another she-wolf's wounds."

The words tasted bitter on my tongue, but I held my head high. I was Luna of this pack, and I had duties beyond my crumbling heart.

As Marcus nodded and moved away, I felt the first real crack in the foundation of my world. The mate bond that had once felt like sunshine in my veins now carried an undercurrent of pain, a whisper that something fundamental had shifted.

I needed to see for myself. I needed to understand why Aitana Porter's blood was more important than our sacred bond.

The celebration continued around me, but I was already moving toward the door, toward answers I wasn't sure I wanted to find.

The day before the final, my mate orchestrated a devastating scheme to ensure his favored talent, Francesca, would claim victory in the Pack Talent Show and steal the spotlight. As Alpha of the Blue Fang Pack, Leonard Howell’s word was law, and he used his authority to arrange a car accident that left me unable to shift into my wolf form or stand ever again. When I regained consciousness in the pack’s infirmary, the sterile scent of antiseptic filled the air. Leonard sat beside me, his towering frame dominating the room, his muscles tense even as he casually peeled an apple. His voice was calm, almost detached, as he said, "Arianna, hang in there a bit longer. The Healer says there’s a chance for your legs, so be patient. I’ll call him soon." His words sparked a flicker of hope within me. I reached for the call button, desperate to summon the Healer. But Leonard’s hand shot out, pressing mine down with an iron grip. The strength of an Alpha was overwhelming, and I felt my wrist ache under the pressure.
Just like the evening breeze leaves no trace
Just like the evening breeze leaves no trace
Chapter 1 It was their seventh wedding anniversary. Carolyn found the divorce agreement in Roger’s nightstand. The pages were covered in scribbles and corrections, as if he’d agonized over them for years. *"If, during the marriage, I fall in love with another person, I voluntarily relinquish all assets and leave with nothing. Asset details as follows…"* His first impulse had been to walk away empty-handed. But the asset section told a different story—a mess of revisions. First, he’d crossed out the property he intended to give her. Then, the fifty million earmarked for her was scratched out and replaced with five hundred thousand. Finally, as if in penance, he had written a single line. *"Better to have Carolyn leave with nothing. No choice, Catherine is pregnant."* … Carolyn sank onto the bed, disbelief washing over her. On the agreement, Roger’s signature was clean and decisive, without a hint of hesitation. And the document had been drafted seven years ago—the very year they married. That year, Roger had been willing to give up everything for her. Yet every year after, he had crossed out another piece of their shared life. Now, seven years later, the one leaving with nothing would be her. Her phone buzzed abruptly. A message from Roger. *"Urgent business. Won't be back."* She called, only to find his phone already switched off. Another notification flashed—a screenshot from a friend. Catherine, the student she sponsored, had posted on social media. *"Wow, got praised! To commemorate my first period without a leak, the big boss said we should celebrate properly!"* In a nine-photo collage, Roger gazed at her, eyes crinkling with affection as he fastened a dazzling gemstone necklace around her neck. The post was tagged at a couples-themed hotel. Carolyn’s breath caught. He couldn’t remember seven years of marriage, of weathering storms together—but he could find the energy to celebrate Catherine’s… leak-free period. And that pendant… she’d seen it at an auction just last week. It was her mother’s lost heirloom. She’d been ready to bid when her bank card was frozen. She’d asked Roger why. A long time later, he finally texted back, telling her not to waste money on such impractical things. Clutching her bidding paddle, she’d sat helplessly in the auction hall. In the end, she resolved to sell one of her own designs to raise the funds. But someone on the phone swooped in with an unbeatable offer and took it. For weeks afterward, Carolyn hated herself—hated that she couldn’t protect her mother’s last keepsake. She never imagined the one who snatched it away was Roger. He knew exactly how much that pendant meant to her. Yet he gave it to Catherine. Even on their seventh anniversary, Roger had lied about being busy with work, while wining and dining the girl she’d sponsored. The anniversary gift he left her was a divorce agreement demanding she leave with nothing. Seven years of marriage. Seven years of infidelity. And Carolyn had known nothing. She’d even introduced the other woman to him herself. Catherine was the impoverished student Carolyn sponsored. The first time Catherine came to their home to give thanks, Roger found her intrusive and disliked her on sight. *"That girl has no manners. Tracked mud all over my cashmere rug."* *"If her grades aren’t up to par, cut the sponsorship."* Back then, Carolyn had teased him, saying not to be jealous—it was good the girl had a grateful heart. She never once suspected Roger and Catherine. For seven years, everyone in their circle believed Roger never played around. That he loved only Carolyn. But by their next meeting, Catherine had become Roger’s personal assistant. Roger explained, *"The girl’s had it tough. You’ve sponsored her for years. Giving her a job is just helping you out."* Carolyn had laughed it off. Now, hands trembling, she opened Catherine’s social media feed. Catherine had always hidden her posts from Carolyn. Now, she seemed desperate to flaunt everything. While Carolyn drank until her stomach bled to secure a deal for Roger, Catherine was using Roger’s card to buy her first Louis Vuitton. While Carolyn changed bedpans for Roger’s bedridden grandmother, Roger was taking Catherine to a perfume atelier for a blending class—calling it a business trip. Catherine had even complained online. *"Your wife is such a pampered princess. Can't handle the tiniest thing without you running back. Can she not live without a man?"* And Roger had replied beneath it. *"If she were half as independent as you, I’d have an easier life."* But that day… Carolyn’s mother had lost her battle with cancer. She’d cried until her heart felt shredded, scrambling to handle the arrangements. All the while, Roger kept checking his phone impatiently, eager to leave. Not for work, she realized now—but because he was desperate to get back to Catherine.

Seven years ago, he insisted on ending our engagement for Chloe, publicly declaring that if he couldn’t bond with her, he’d rather live as a rogue than accept me.
