The Moon Goddess gave me a second chance at life.
But she gave one to my mate, Alpha Caiden, too.
In my first life, he chose to save me and our unborn heir.
His childhood sweetheart Doris died, and his love curdled into a resentment so cold he fed me to a starved bear.
This time, when Doris pushed me from a cliff, he made a different choice.
He left me, his pregnant mate, broken and bleeding in the cursed wilds.
“Ignore her. She's just a distraction to slow you down from reaching Doris.”
He thought I would perish.
He was wrong.
I survived, severed our bond, and patiently waited until I could shatter his world with the truth.
When his precious Doris was exposed as a murderer, he crawled back to me, his mind finally broken by regret.
“Lidia, please give me another chance. Let us start fresh.”
But I just smiled, my hand resting on the pup he thought was long dead.
“Don't be ridiculous. I will never be shackled to you again.”

Cliff, Broken Bond, And A Luna Never Looking Back

"You're all being manipulated by Doris, but you're too blind to see it," I exclaimed, my voice ringing with righteous anger.


"Doris tricked me into going into the Gloomfang Wilds and then she tried to murder me," I continued, my voice filled with cold fury.


"Where is your evidence, outcast?" someone in the crowd demanded.


I gestured towards the massive moon-crystal display. "It's right there on the screen."


I had earlier enlisted the help of Selene, who had a contact in the Grand Hall’s audio-visual department.


The memory from the day of the incident began to play on the crystal display, a shimmering, ghostly projection.


It clearly showed everything, from Doris sabotaging my gear to her shoving me off the Broken Fang Cliff.


The audience was visibly stunned into silence.


An Alpha in the crowd asked, "How is this possible? Is Doris Rageclaw a murderer?"


"This betrayal is so shocking, it will shatter the accords," a Luna remarked.
