Rejected by My Alpha Novel Cover

Rejected by My Alpha

Waylon forgot to mute the live audio on his Instagram story, and the playful voice of a girl echoed in the background, sharp and unmistakable. "My lingerie got ruined again because of you." "Can you stay with me just one more day? I don’t want you going back to *her*." Thalia, Luna of the Silver Moon Pack, was tipped off by a well-meaning packmate. She stared at the screen, her fingers hovering over the story. In the past, she might have cried, thrown a tantrum, or even threatened something drastic. But now, she simply hit the like button and scrolled away. --- Waylon called her later that evening. "My flight’s delayed. Don’t wait up for dinner." His voice was flat, cold, and distant, even over the phone. The excuse sounded rehearsed, almost indifferent.

Chapter 5

The air in the Silver Moon Pack’s headquarters felt heavier than usual as Thalia stood at the entrance, her sharpened senses picking up on the faintest traces of a familiar scent—one that didn’t belong to her. Her wolf stirred uneasily in the back of her mind, a low growl forming in her throat, but she silenced it with a firm mental command. She couldn’t shake the gnawing suspicion that her worst fears were about to be confirmed.

A moment later, a cheerful female voice broke through the tension, carrying the scent of rosemary and vanilla—a scent that shouldn’t have been so prominent in Waylon’s space. "I brought pasta salad and some chicken stew today; you should try some later," the woman said, her tone light and carefree.

"Sure," Waylon replied, his deep voice carrying the usual authority of an Alpha, but with an undercurrent of warmth that made Thalia’s stomach twist.

"Oh no! Whiskers! How did you get out here?!" the woman exclaimed, her voice rising in playful alarm.

Thalia froze, her heart pounding in her chest. She turned her head sharply, her amber eyes locking onto the scene unfolding before her. A man and a woman walked side by side, their closeness unmistakable. The chill that ran up her spine had nothing to do with the coolness of the evening air.

The man was Waylon, her mate and the Alpha of the Silver Moon Pack. His towering frame, muscular and imposing, was a testament to his rank and strength. But it wasn’t his physical presence that struck her—it was the way he leaned slightly forward, his posture softening as he listened to the woman beside him. His expression, usually stern and commanding, was filled with a tenderness Thalia hadn’t seen directed at her in years.

The woman was petite, her delicate features framed by golden hair that caught the light. Her voice, sweet and melodic, was the same one Thalia had heard in the background of Waylon’s Instagram story a few days ago. She moved with an ease that suggested she belonged here, in Waylon’s space, more than Thalia ever had.

When the woman spotted Whiskers, the wolf pup nestled in Alaya’s arms, her eyes lit up with delight. She hurried forward, her laughter ringing out as she scooped the pup into her arms, cooing softly. Waylon’s gaze followed her, his amber eyes filled with unmistakable warmth and affection—affection that should have been reserved for his Luna.

But then, as if sensing her presence, Waylon’s gaze shifted. His eyes traveled past Alaya and the woman, landing directly on Thalia standing at the office entrance. In an instant, any trace of softness vanished from his face, replaced by the cold, detached expression she had become all too familiar with.

The air between them crackled with unspoken tension. Thalia’s wolf growled again, louder this time, but she forced herself to remain composed. She was the Luna of the Silver Moon Pack, and she wouldn’t let him see her falter.

"Alpha," she said, her voice steady despite the storm raging inside her. "I didn’t realize you had company."

Waylon’s jaw tightened, but he didn’t respond immediately. The woman, still cradling Whiskers, glanced between them, her smile fading slightly as she sensed the tension.

"Thalia," Waylon finally said, his tone clipped. "This is Emmie Anderson, one of our Deltas. She’s been helping with Whiskers."

Emmie offered a hesitant smile, her eyes flickering with something unreadable. "It’s an honor to meet you, Luna," she said, her voice soft and deferential.

Thalia nodded curtly, her gaze never leaving Waylon’s. "I see," she replied, her tone icy. "Perhaps the Alpha would like to explain why one of our Deltas is so... comfortable in his den?"

Waylon’s expression darkened, but before he could respond, Emmie spoke up. "I’m so sorry, Luna. I didn’t mean to overstep. I just thought—"

"That’s enough, Emmie," Waylon interrupted, his voice firm. He stepped forward, his presence commanding as he addressed Thalia. "We’ll discuss this later. Alone."

Thalia’s lips curled into a bitter smile. "Of course, Alpha," she said, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "I wouldn’t want to interrupt your... hospitality."

With that, she turned on her heel and strode out of the headquarters, her head held high despite the ache in her chest. Her wolf howled in frustration, but Thalia silenced it with a sharp mental command. She wouldn’t let him see her break—not now, not ever.

"Give her a few days, and she’ll come crawling back, begging for forgiveness. Then I’ll graciously accept her apology, and we’ll see if she dares to cause any fuss again."

I Am Not Your Ordinary Luna, I Am The Rebel Queen Novel Cover

One hundred years ago, the witches cursed every she-wolf to be barren. It was vengeance for their slain matriarch. It was meant to end the war. Instead, it nearly ended the werewolf race. Werewolves were forced to interbreed with humans to survive, and the once-proud kingdoms fractured. Only one bloodline remained untouched by the curse, the ancient Lycans of Lupenreich, protected by powerful shamanic magic. Coveted by werewolves, hunted by witches, despised by vampires, the Lycans became both salvation and threat. And now, only one true heir remains... Sybil von Rosen was never meant to grow up among humans. Born a Lycan princess through a human surrogate, she was stolen from the castle as an infant by the very woman meant to nurse her, a woman who turned out to be a witch. Hidden beneath a powerful spell that caged her wolf and erased her scent from the supernatural world, Sybil was raised knowing exactly who she was... and exactly what she had been bred for. A womb. A crown. Her bloodline's legacy. But Sybil was never meant to be a broodmare queen. She grew up human with the strength and senses of a shewolf and the magic of the witches, which got transferred to her while she was still in the womb of her surrogate. She's strong, intelligent, disciplined, and lethal. An MMA champion. A combat instructor for a private military contractor. A woman who learned to fight before she ever learned to howl. When the magic of her witch mother begins to fade, and the werewolf King finally tracks them down, Sybil is summoned back to a kingdom that remembers her only as its missing heir. Betrayed by her hybrid fiancé, who abandoned her to marry the princess of their kingdom, Sybil made a decision that will shake three kingdoms. She returned. Not for love. Not for duty. For revenge... But the throne comes with chains. Instead of marrying one Alpha, she is bound to four-the Alpha Guardians of Lupenreich. Ruthless. Powerful. Pureblood. Feared across kingdoms. And fate claims they are her mates. There's only one problem. Sybil cannot feel her wolf, for it was caged deep within her soul. She cannot smell her mates. She is a Lycan princess trapped in a wolfless body. While her four Alphas believe they are claiming their future Luna and Queen, Sybil is already planning something far more dangerous. She will not stand beside a king. She will not be used to breed to secure bloodlines. And she certainly will not be ruled. If the kingdom wants a queen... They're about to kneel to a rebel queen. Because Sybil von Rosen is not an ordinary Luna. She is the last Lycan heir. The forbidden daughter of witches. The mate of four Alpha Guardians. And she intends to take the throne for herself and will bow to no one.

Dust motes danced in the sliver of sunlight cutting through the heavy velvet curtains of the pack archives. I sneezed, the sound echoing in the silence. As the Omega of the Silver Moon Pack, this was my domain—the dusty corners, the forgotten histories, the places no one else wanted to be. "Just another day, Zoey," I whispered to myself, reaching for a heavy, leather-bound tome on the top shelf. "Keep your head down, do your work." But today wasn't just another day. My hand slipped. The sharp metal clasp of the book sliced across my thumb. I hissed, pulling my hand back, expecting the familiar sting and the welling of crimson red. Instead, as I pressed my thumb against the parchment of an open scroll to stop the bleeding, a strange warmth bloomed in my chest. I pulled my hand away.

On the day my child turned one month old, my mate Robert Kim was declared dead after falling into a well. The pack waited for me to break down, to wail and mourn, but I remained silent and unmoved. Five years later, during a famine, Robert suddenly reappeared, his arm wrapped around Taylor Bennett, the Omega he had chosen over me.

But since you’ve worked so hard these past years, I’ll take care of you. Though Taylor will remain my Luna.” I laughed bitterly. “You’re too late.” What Robert didn’t know was that in my past life, I had endured humiliation as his chosen mate, all for the sake of our child. But Taylor couldn’t bear the thought of my child calling Robert “Father,” so she convinced him to have us thrown into a mob of starving rogues.
