"You're my mate?" I felt nervous when Xander spoke those words. His emerald eyes locked into mine, and he ran his fingers through his blond hair - I knew right away, that I was rejected.
"There is no way that we could be mates. You are my sister's boyfriend-" I whispered, bracing myself for his potential rejection.
"Ex-boyfriend, we don't have any connection anymore. She's not my mate, but you are," He corrected me as he crooked a smile.
I gaze into his eyes. "So?"
"I, Xander Blaze Havoc, the Alpha King of the Blue Moon Pack, hereby accept you, Solaine Blake, as my mate and as the Luna of my Pack."
Solaine Blake, initially surprised to find herself mated to Xander Blaze Havoc, the Alpha King of the Blue Moon Pack, finds acceptance from him despite her fears of rejection. 
Their mate bond, however, is short-lived; it shatters when Solaine's sister Selene returns and takes her place as Luna, leaving Solaine heartbroken and marginalized within the pack.
"Tomorrow. Selene will replace your position. I want you to make things right while it's early."
Unknown to Xander, Solaine is carrying his child, a fact overshadowed by Selene's mistreatment. 
The situation complicates further with the arrival of Xander's attractive, younger stepbrother, Axel Zephyr Havoc, who shows a keen interest in Solaine. 
Despite his changed feelings, Xander can't help but feel jealous seeing Solaine and Axel together...

The Replaced Luna

"Pay no attention to her." he kissed her ear while his eyes are all on me.


"Let's go inside," he snapped, his words slicing through the air like a sharp blade. They abandoned me in the corridor, leaving me rooted to the spot, a surge of embarrassment flooding my veins. How could I have been so foolish to allow them to treat me this way?


I sink my teeth into the tender flesh of my cheeks, feeling the slight sting as I apply pressure. My fingers graze the surface of my stomach, the warmth of my touch spreading through my skin.


I inhaled deeply, feeling the cool air fill my lungs. "You've got this, Solaine. All alone." I whispered quietly to myself.
