I yearned to be acknowledged as a deserving Luna, even though the entire pack never addressed me as such. Nevertheless, I persevered, striving for their respect.

Within each pack, leaders must earn the pack's allegiance rather than coerce it. Hence, I continued to push myself beyond the limits I had never before explored.

Yet, despite my relentless efforts, I was deceived and betrayed. My so-called mate, Brett, and my supposed best friend, Jennifer, shattered my trust. We grew up without parents, but I cared for Jennifer as a sister would. Nevertheless, she plunged a metaphorical knife into my back.

Now and future, never again will I allow anyone to exploit my vulnerability, I will reclaim my standing.

　　Vivian, Eden's ex-gamma, had harbored a burning desire for power and revenge. The taste of betrayal she had savored when she turned to rogues against Eden's leadership was a bitter satisfaction that had driven her actions for years. And now, with the knowledge of Eden and Elissa's mission, she saw an opportunity to take everything from them. I was more than delighted after reading the letter she wrote to Brett.


　　Vivian's alliance with Brett was as precarious as it was advantageous to me.  She hated Elissa maybe more than I ever did. Yet, Brett's caution was palpable, an undercurrent of mistrust that simmered beneath their collaboration. He understood that if she had betrayed Eden, she could very well do the same to him. I also understood this but I saw Vivian as a means to an end. An enemy to your enemy could as well pass off as your friend.
