I was supposed to be Alpha Damian's destined mate. But there I was, at the celebration just before he came of age, and he totally humiliated me in front of everyone.
The music was blasting. He was holding another she-wolf's hand when he announced, "It's my honor to tell you all that Seraphina will be my official chosen mate."
Everyone cheered. And me? I was standing in the shadows, my hand gripping tight around that Moonstone – the one that means power.
"See?" his Beta sneered right in my ear. "Only she-wolves from a noble bloodline can truly capture an Alpha's heart. Not a loser like you who's always messing with humans."
He'd forgotten, hadn't he? How three years ago, I saved his life. My right wrist got shredded by magic trying to protect him – it was almost completely ruined.
When the party was finally over, I stared right into his golden eyes, my voice ice cold. "Damian, your Alpha ceremony is in one month. And trust me, I'll have two very 'special gifts' ready for you then."
"What's that supposed to mean?" he asked, his eyes suddenly sharp.
"Oh, you'll find out," I said, already heading for the door. "I'm so over this damn fated bond."

After the Alpha Abandoned His Luna

Explosions boomed, one after another. Buildings around the cafe were catching fire.


Raven’s laughter cut through the chaos, chilling. "Well, well, look what we have here. The Alpha of the Nightclaws with his little sweetheart. What a romantic way to die."


Damian shoved me behind him. "It's me you want. Let her go."


"Oh?" Raven arched an eyebrow. "But I hear this young lady is the one who really calls the shots in your pack. The Covenant Guardian, right?"


I glared at him. "How did you know that?"


"Word gets around," Raven said, glancing around us. "Especially when someone inside the pack is willing to... share."


"Smart boy," Raven said with a slow clap. "Your second-in-command has had it in for you for a long time. Thinks you're not fit to be Alpha. Especially after you got so hung up on this... outsider."


Damian started to shift, his eyes flaring gold, muscles bulging. "Elara is not an outsider! She's my fated mate!"
