Betrayed by My Alpha Mate

While I was helping Alpha Timothy copy some files for the pack, I accidentally stumbled upon a hidden photo album. Without thinking, I opened it and was overwhelmed by a flood of images. The screen was filled with pictures of him with another she-wolf. The realization hit me hard—my mate was seeing someone else. Just then, my phone buzzed with a message from my best friend, Murphy, a Delta in the Moonlight Pack like me. "Iliana, I’ve got something to tell you. Alpha Timothy is planning to propose to you on Thanksgiving!" My chest tightened, the air suddenly feeling too heavy to breathe. The bond between us, once strong and unshakable, now felt like a fragile thread on the verge of snapping. I clenched my fists, trying to steady myself. How could this be happening?

After dinner, he volunteered to wash the dishes. I sat on the couch, stealing glances at Alpha Timothy in the kitchen. He was washing up while occasionally checking his phone, a smile often playing on his lips. It was oddly amusing—six years of mate bond couldn’t compete with the excitement of something new.

After cleaning up, he cheerfully brought over a box of spiced honey cake to me. "Luna, I got your favorite tiramisu," he said, using the title that still felt foreign to me. He looked at me with the eager anticipation of a child seeking approval. I’ve always had a sweet tooth, thinking desserts could brighten any day. But now, no sweetness could cut through the bitterness in my heart. I stared blankly at the cake box, the weight of his betrayal pressing down on me.

Seeing me lost in thought, Alpha Timothy gently asked, "Luna, what are you thinking about?" I snapped back to the present and was about to reach for the cake. Just then, his phone, left on the table, started ringing loudly. Before I could see who it was, he quickly grabbed it, as if worried I might see.

My hand dropped open, and the cake fell to the floor with a soft thud. The ringtone kept going, sharp and insistent. In his rush to silence it, he accidentally answered the call.

"Alpha," a soft female voice, choked with tears, floated through the air. I looked up at him, catching a brief flash of panic in his eyes. He quickly lowered the volume to almost inaudible and composed himself, his Alpha aura flickering for a moment before he regained control. He mouthed to me, pointing at the screen, "It’s a colleague," then hurried toward the balcony with the phone in hand, his movements stiff and unnatural.

I sat there, frozen, the crumbs of the cake scattered at my feet. My wolf stirred within me, a low growl of warning I couldn’t ignore. *He’s lying,* she whispered, her voice sharp with distrust. I clenched my fists, forcing myself to stay calm. This wasn’t the first time he’d lied to me, but it was the first time I’d heard her voice so clearly.

The balcony door slid shut behind him, muffling his words but not the tension in the air. I stared at the closed door, the title "Luna" echoing in my mind like a cruel joke. I wasn’t his Luna, not truly. Not when he was out there, whispering reassurances to another she-wolf while I sat here, broken and alone.

The bitterness in my heart grew heavier, and for the first time, I wondered if the Moon Goddess had made a mistake. Or if I had.

The guards' grip on my arms was bruising as they dragged me through the winding corridors of the Black Moon Pack house. My heart hammered against my ribs, each beat a desperate prayer that this was some mistake. But the heavy oak doors of Alpha Zayden's private suite slamming open before me told a different story. "Let her go," came the deep, commanding voice I knew all too well. The guards released me instantly, and I stumbled forward, catching myself against the ornate desk that dominated the room. Alpha Zayden stood by the window, his broad shoulders silhouetted against the fading light, while Gamma Dante secured the doors behind us with a decisive click that echoed like a death knell. "Where is Luna Veronica?" Zayden's voice cut through the silence, his Alpha tone pressing against my chest like a physical weight. I struggled to breathe as his aura filled the room—pine and musk and something primal that made my knees weak. "What does she plan with those private meetings at the eastern border?" I swallowed hard, my mind racing. Arleth needed her medicine.

The silk of my ceremonial gown whispered against my skin, a stark, pure white that seemed to glow under the twilight sky. I stood at the center of the Sacred Gathering, the ancient clearing where every Alpha of the Silver Moon Pack had taken a mate for generations. The air was thick with the scent of pine, damp earth, and the nervous anticipation of three hundred wolves watching their leader. I am Charlotte Carter, the Alpha. I told myself this as I smoothed the fabric over my hips, trying to calm the tremor in my hands. It was a mantra I had repeated since my parents died, leaving me to shoulder the weight of the pack alone at twenty-two. Today was supposed to be the day that burden became lighter. Today, I would mark Cade Ross. Cade stood opposite me, looking devastatingly handsome in his formal black suit. He was my Beta, my childhood friend, and the man I had chosen.

The negotiation table was a battlefield I knew well. As the Luna of the Shadow Moon Pack, I had spent the last ten years perfecting the art of war with words. Across the mahogany table, Alpha Marcus of the Silver Claw Pack was sweating, his pen hovering over the trade agreement that would secure our borders for another decade. "It seems equitable, Luna Sabrina," Marcus grunted, finally signing. "Your husband is a lucky man to have a mate with such a sharp mind." "Luck has nothing to do with it, Alpha," I replied smoothly, organizing the documents. My hand instinctively brushed my flat stomach. I hadn't told Lorenzo yet. I wanted to surprise him tonight after the treaty was signed. A pup. Finally.

He Banished Me But Sheltered His Mistress

The scent of detergent filled my nostrils as I mechanically sorted through another load of laundry. Three years as Luna of the Silver Creek Pack, and here I was, still doing the work of an Omega. My hands were raw from the harsh chemicals, but that physical discomfort paled compared to the ache in my chest. I glanced at the clock—Atticus would be finishing his afternoon pack reports soon. Maybe if I caught him before his evening meetings, he'd actually listen to what I had to say. My parents' medical bills had been piling up for months. Dad's heart condition required specialized treatment, and Mom's arthritis medication wasn't covered by their insurance. As Luna, I had access to pack funds for emergencies, but Atticus controlled all financial decisions. I gathered my courage and made my way to his office, the familiar weight of disappointment already settling in my stomach. Atticus didn't look up when I entered.

Luna's Rebirth: After the Alpha Rejects Her Plea

"The evidence is irrefutable," Caelan's voice rang out, clear and authoritative. My mate—my beloved Alpha—held up a stack of documents, his dark eyes scanning the assembled council members with practiced gravity. "Alpha Ronan O'Rourke has committed acts of treason against the territorial accords." The words hit me like physical blows. Treason. My father. I pressed my hand against my belly, feeling our unborn child shift restlessly inside me, as if sensing my distress. The baby kicked hard, and I had to steady myself against the stone pillar beside me. "These documents," Caelan continued, his voice never wavering, "detail unauthorized military movements, secret negotiations with enemy packs, and the deliberate weakening of our territorial defenses." Elder Faelan leaned forward in his seat, his weathered face grave. "These are serious accusations, Alpha Caelan. What proof do we have of their authenticity?" Caelan's lips curved into what might have been a smile, but there was no warmth in it. "The documents bear Luna Aislin's seal and signature. She can verify their legitimacy." Every eye in the chamber turned to me. The weight of their stares felt crushing, but it was nothing compared to the ice-cold realization spreading through my chest. Those late nights when Caelan had asked me to review correspondence. The defensive strategies I had helped him draft. The supply chain modifications I had approved at his request. I had signed my father's death warrant without even knowing it. "Luna Aislin?" Elder Faelan's voice seemed to come from very far away. "Can you confirm these documents?"

My Alpha Let Me Die in Labor for His First Love

9.2

Fifteen missed calls. That was the only legacy I left on my husband’s phone while I went into labor alone during the storm. Trapped in the twisted wreckage of the ambulance, my heart filled with helplessness and desperation, I watched my mate’s Porsche speed past me in the rain. He didn't stop. He didn't look back. He left his pregnant desperate Luna bleeding on the asphalt to rush to his ex-girlfriend’s side for a "phantom cramp." I died cold and unloved, but my soul refused to move on. For months, I floated invisibly through the home I built, watching him replace me. He gave her my jewelry. He put her bastard child in the nursery I had decorated with such hope. He even laughed when she admitted she’d seen my ambulance behind them and deliberately made him block the road. They had murdered me and my unborn pup to clear the path for their "true love,” and they toasted to their perfect life on my grave. But they forgot that vengeance can transcend death. When I was offered a ticket to the moment before the crash, I didn't hesitate. When the darkness faded as my eyes snapped open, the siren wailed above me. The rain lashed against the ambulance window. Everything was exactly as I remembered—the storm, the siren, the twisted metal, the smell of rain on asphalt. The world around me felt achingly familiar, like a nightmare replaying itself, down to the smallest detail. Except for one thing. Me. I was back, my heart burned with rage, grief, and a thirst for vengeance. This time, I wouldn't be the one dying in the rain.
