After My Beta Rejected Me, I Reclaimed My Alpha Blood Novel Cover

After My Beta Rejected Me, I Reclaimed My Alpha Blood

I was born with Alpha blood flowing through my veins, heir to one of the most prestigious packs in the Northeast. Yet here I was, living a lie for the past month, all for what I believed was love. My name is Charlotte Blackwood, and I had made the decision to hide my true identity when I met Marcus Thompson, Beta of the Silvermoon Pack. I wanted him to love me for who I was, not for my family name or the power it carried. The full moon hung heavy in the night sky as I slipped away from the pack house. The forest welcomed me with its familiar whispers, branches swaying in the gentle breeze as if beckoning me deeper into its embrace. Once I was far enough, I surrendered to my wolf. The shift was seamless—bones cracking, muscles stretching, skin giving way to a coat of silvery fur that gleamed under the moonlight. My wolf, Luna, greeted me with a contented rumble. "We shouldn't be hiding who we are," she whispered in my mind.

Chapter 1

I was born with Alpha blood flowing through my veins, heir to one of the most prestigious packs in the Northeast. Yet here I was, living a lie for the past month, all for what I believed was love.

My name is Charlotte Blackwood, and I had made the decision to hide my true identity when I met Marcus Thompson, Beta of the Silvermoon Pack. I wanted him to love me for who I was, not for my family name or the power it carried.

The full moon hung heavy in the night sky as I slipped away from the pack house. The forest welcomed me with its familiar whispers, branches swaying in the gentle breeze as if beckoning me deeper into its embrace. Once I was far enough, I surrendered to my wolf.

The shift was seamless—bones cracking, muscles stretching, skin giving way to a coat of silvery fur that gleamed under the moonlight. My wolf, Luna, greeted me with a contented rumble.

"We shouldn't be hiding who we are," she whispered in my mind. "We are Alpha. It's in our blood."

"Just a little longer," I promised her as we raced through the trees, feeling the earth beneath our paws. "On our hundredth day, we'll tell him everything."

Luna didn't respond, but I felt her unease. Something about Marcus had always made her restless, though I'd attributed it to our secret. Surely once he knew who I truly was, everything would fall into place.

As dawn broke, I shifted back and returned to the pack house just in time for the morning run. Marcus was already there, his dark hair tousled from sleep, those piercing blue eyes finding mine across the yard.

"You're up early," he noted as I approached, his gaze traveling appreciatively over my form. "Couldn't sleep?"

"Just excited for the run," I lied, offering him a smile.

The pack set off, thirty wolves strong, through the territory. I kept pace easily, my Alpha stamina giving me an edge even when I tried to hold back. Marcus noticed, falling into step beside me.

"You're strong," he murmured, just for me to hear. "Graceful too. Most wolves can't keep up with me."

I felt a flush of pride, both at the compliment and the private moment between us. This was why I'd fallen for him—these quiet acknowledgments, the way he seemed to see something special in me even without knowing my lineage.

Thirty days. That's how long we'd been together, building what I thought was a genuine bond. That evening, we shared dinner in his office, the space intimate with candlelight and the scent of the forest that clung to him.

"You're distracted tonight," Marcus observed, setting down his wine glass.

I reached across the table, my finger lightly tracing the scar that ran along his jaw—a battle mark he wore proudly. "I was just thinking about our hundredth day."

"Oh?" His eyebrow arched with interest. "And what happens then?"

"Then I tell you my family name," I teased, my heart quickening at the thought of finally sharing my truth with him. "And introduce you to my pack."

Something flickered in his eyes—so brief I almost missed it. Then he smiled, capturing my hand and pressing a kiss to my palm. "I look forward to it."

If only I'd recognized the emptiness behind that smile.

That very night, as the moon climbed high once more, Marcus called a gathering in the grand pack hall. I arrived late, confused by the summons, only to find every member of the Silvermoon Pack assembled. The air was thick with anticipation, and all eyes turned to me as I entered.

Marcus stood at the center, his posture rigid, face a mask of cold indifference I'd never seen before.

"Charlotte," he announced, his voice carrying to every corner of the silent hall. "Approach."

Confusion clouded my mind as I moved forward, Luna suddenly alert and anxious within me.

"I, Marcus Thompson, Beta of the Silvermoon Pack, reject you, Charlotte, as my mate."

The words hit me like physical blows. Each syllable tore through me, ripping at the bond I thought we shared. Luna howled in agony inside me, the sound echoing in my mind as my knees threatened to buckle.

Marcus's wolf rumbled in approval as he reached into his pocket and tossed a small pouch at my feet. Coins spilled across the floor—my compensation, my worth in his eyes.

"Pack your belongings and be gone by dawn," he commanded, not a trace of the man I thought I knew in his voice.

And as I stood there, surrounded by the silent judgment of an entire pack, the truth crashed down upon me with devastating clarity: there had never been a mate bond at all.

The morning light filtered through the grand windows of the Silver Moon Pack house as I arranged the final touches on the long oak table. My fingers trembled slightly as I positioned the last crystal glass, my reflection staring back at me from its polished surface. Dark circles shadowed my eyes after a sleepless night of preparation for today's Pack Merger Treaty meeting. "The flowers need to be moved an inch to the left," I muttered to myself, adjusting the centerpiece. "And the Alpha's chair should face the eastern window." I'd been working since dawn, ensuring every detail was perfect for the high-stakes meeting between our pack and the Blood River Pack. As the daughter of the late Alpha, this should have been my moment to shine—instead, I was invisible, relegated to servant duties while my stepmother and stepsister prepared to take center stage. "Juliet!" A harsh voice cut through my thoughts. "Where are the refreshment trays?" I turned to see my stepmother, Aileen, her lips curled in disapproval. "Coming right away," I replied, hurrying toward the kitchen. By midday, Alphas and their delegations filled our great hall.

The afternoon sun streamed through the windows of Moonlight Werewolf Preschool as I hurried down the hallway, my heart already racing from the urgent phone call. River was in trouble again. My hands trembled as I pushed open the door to the principal's office, and the scene that greeted me made my wolf stir restlessly beneath my skin for the first time in months. River sat hunched in a small chair, his dark hair tousled and a streak of dried blood under his nose. His little hands were clenched into fists, and even from across the room, I could sense his wolf pacing anxiously—far too strong for a five-year-old. But it was the sight of the woman sitting regally in the chair beside him that made my blood run cold. Mercy Cruz looked exactly as I remembered—perfectly styled blonde hair, designer clothes that screamed Luna status, and that same cruel smile that had haunted my college years. She sat with her back straight, one manicured hand resting protectively on her son Marco's shoulder. The boy was sniffling dramatically, though I noticed he kept peeking at River with satisfied malice. "Ms.

To save Rocky, I ventured into the Poisoned Forest, searching for rare herbs. My knowledge of healing was limited, so I relied on the old method—tasting the plants to identify their properties. The first leaf I chewed sent a searing heat through my abdomen. Damn it, it was the mate-bond enhancing plant! The lore said the antidote would be within three steps. I scanned the area and spotted a man lying unconscious in the undergrowth. His sharp features were striking, his black jacket contrasting against his pale skin. My instincts took over as I approached him, my body trembling with need. But I had to be respectful. Before acting, I leaned down and asked, "Sir, can you help me neutralize this?" He didn’t respond, his eyes closed, but his silence felt like consent.

The holographic display flickered as I stared at the border maps, the red markers pulsing like a heartbeat. Another territorial dispute with the Eastern Packs. My temples throbbed with the constant pressure. "Alpha, we've reinforced the northern perimeter," Beta Marcus reported, his voice steady but concerned. "But we need your decision on the eastern quadrant." I rubbed my eyes, exhaustion seeping into my bones. Three nights without sleep. The Shadow Creek Pack's expansion had brought wealth but also enemies. "Double the patrols," I ordered. "And contact Alpha Wilson. I want to know why his wolves are crossing our boundaries." The command center hummed with activity—warriors receiving orders, technicians monitoring security feeds.

The familiar scent of pine and earth greeted me as I approached the Moonstone Pack house, my heart hammering against my ribs with nervous excitement. Tonight was supposed to be our night—Jordan's and mine. After seven years of waiting, of being his chosen mate in the shadows, he had finally promised to make it official. I clutched the garment bag closer to my chest, feeling the silk of the dress my grandmother and I had spent weeks selecting. It was midnight blue, the color of the moon at its darkest phase, with delicate silver embroidery that caught the light like stars. Grandmother had insisted on adding the family pendant to complete the look—a small silver wolf that had been passed down through generations of Patterson women. "Tonight, you'll finally get the recognition you deserve," I whispered to myself, repeating Grandmother's encouraging words from earlier. But as I rounded the corner toward the main entrance, my steps faltered. The entire pack house was ablaze with lights, decorated with white roses and silver ribbons that caught the evening breeze. My breath caught in my throat.

"Miss Gray, are you sure you want to go through with another cosmetic procedure? This will be your ninety-ninth one. You know, you’re already quite stunning, even more so than..." "Just do it." Lyra Hansen, the pack’s healer, hesitated, her tone softening as she tried to reason with Alexia Gray. She had hoped to convince Alexia that her natural beauty was more than enough, that she didn’t need to keep altering herself to fit someone else’s ideal. But Alexia only smiled faintly, her fingers twisting the mate mark on her neck. She understood what Lyra was leaving unsaid. Still, she yearned more than anything to become what Enzo Dixon admired. A few days later, once her facial wounds had healed, Alexia hurried from the clinic to the Silverfang Pack’s headquarters, her heart racing as she hoped to make it in time for the fourth anniversary of her marking ceremony with Enzo, the Alpha of the pack. She stood outside his office, her hand raised to knock when she overheard voices inside. Instinctively, she paused, her sharp werewolf hearing catching every word of Enzo’s conversation.
