Rejected Luna's Marking Vengeance

A week before the marking ceremony, Ezra’s niece returned from overseas to be a bridesmaid. I stumbled upon the fact that we had both recently received identical gifts: lingerie and a ceremonial gown. Same style, same size. The only difference was the note she received: "After you’ve had your fun, it’s time to come home. Don’t make me come and get you myself." The handwriting was unmistakably my mate’s. Ezra Martinez, the Beta of the Crimson Fang Pack, went to pick her up personally when she arrived. I secretly took Ezra’s backup phone and uncovered a hidden, forbidden affection. She playfully addressed him as "Uncle," and he affectionately called her "kiddo." I spent a whole hour reading through Ezra’s romantic diary. My mind was numb, refusing to accept the truth. How could this happen?

Just then, a notification popped up on my phone through the pack’s private mind link channel:

[*Uncle, for the last time, I won’t be your bridesmaid.*

*Watching you mark someone else is unbearable.*

*I’m leaving on tonight’s flight. Don’t look for me.*]

The sound of the front door unlocking echoed from the living room. I hurriedly wiped the tears from my eyes and marked the message as unread, pretending nothing had happened.

Ezra stepped in, still in his formal Beta attire, though he had rolled up his sleeves, revealing the corded muscles of his forearms. His wolfish strength was evident in every movement, and his commanding aura filled the room. He smiled at me, his sharp features softening. “I’m in a good mood today. Let me cook tonight.”

“Ella, come and help me with the apron.”

I took a deep breath, trying to steady the tremble in my voice. “No need, I’ve already eaten.”

“What did you have?” Ezra asked, playfully wrapping his arms around my waist. His alpha tone, usually so commanding, was light and teasing now. “So, who did you sneak out to meet this afternoon?”

“No one, I just grabbed a quick bite at the pack’s training grounds,” I lied, gently pushing him away for the first time.

He didn’t notice anything unusual about me. “Alright then, I have something to take care of, you don’t have to wait up. Get some sleep.”

He went into the study, and soon came back out, his expression troubled but still smiling. “Ella, there’s something at the Crimson Fang Pack I need to deal with.”

“Oh, and the third version of the marking ceremony dress is ready. Let’s find some time tomorrow to try it on.”

He knew I admired a particular designer and had personally flown to Paris to commission the dress. Each version had his personal input, tailored to reflect the elegance expected of a Luna.

Yet, the truth was, there were two dresses: one for Jazmine, and one for me.

After Ezra left, I touched my face and realized I was crying. My wolf stirred within me, a low whine echoing in my mind. *He’s going to the airport to follow her,* she said, her voice heavy with sorrow.

Sniffling, I followed my instincts and went after him. The night air was cool against my skin as I shifted into my wolf form, my sleek silver fur blending with the shadows. I moved swiftly, my senses heightened as I tracked his scent.

Sure enough, Ezra sped all the way to the airport and went straight to the VIP lounge. He hurriedly grasped Jazmine’s hand, his voice firm but pleading. “Come back with me!”

I watched from a distance, my heart breaking as I saw the way he looked at her—his Beta authority faltering, replaced by something softer, something I had never seen directed at me. My wolf growled softly, a mix of anger and pain.

*He’s choosing her,* she whispered, her voice trembling. *Even after everything, he’s still choosing her.*

I shifted back into my human form, my hands trembling as I wiped away the tears. The bond between us, once so strong, now felt like a frayed thread, ready to snap at any moment. I turned away, knowing that no matter what, I couldn’t compete with the hold Jazmine had on him.

The marking ceremony was supposed to be our moment, the day we solidified our mate bond in front of the packs. But now, it felt like a cruel joke, a reminder of how easily I had been cast aside.

As I walked away, I felt the weight of my status as the Alpha’s daughter, the expectations that came with it. I had been raised to be strong, to lead, to uphold the honor of the Silver Moon Pack. But in that moment, all I felt was the sting of betrayal, the ache of a bond that was never truly mine to keep.

Genius Wife's Revenge: Too Late For Regret

7.7

For two years, I played the role of the "Midwestern mistake," the mousey wife Julian Ford-Sterling IV kept hidden like a shameful secret. I hid my true self behind thick glasses and ashen foundation, acting as the perfect, cowed charity case while he lived a life of marble and indifference. The day our marriage contract ended, the headlines were already screaming about his affair with Hollywood’s sweetheart, Lana Vane. Julian didn't even grant me a final conversation; he simply sent his legal team to hand me divorce papers that gave me nothing—no alimony, no shares, just a non-disclosure agreement and a one-way ticket out of his life. I signed the papers and walked away, but a drugged encounter in a dark club that same night led me back into his arms. We collided in the shadows, two strangers stripped of their titles, but I fled before dawn, accidentally leaving behind my vintage silver locket. By the time I reached my secret design studio the next morning, I discovered Julian had executed a hostile takeover of my entire life’s work. To my horror, Lana Vane was already there, clutching my stolen locket and shamelessly claiming she was the woman Julian had spent the night with. Julian stood before me in his charcoal suit, looking at me with total lack of recognition. To him, I was just a "gold-digging" architect he had bought along with the furniture. I watched them together, the man who had discarded me and the woman who had stolen my identity, realizing that Julian was obsessed with the genius of "Rose" while despising the woman who stood right in front of him. He had no idea that the wife he’d just divorced was the very person he was now desperate to control. I straightened my spine, my violet-blue eyes cold and lethal behind my new designer frames. "Mr. Ford-Sterling, you wanted the best designer in the city? You’ve got her. But you should know—I don't just build empires. I know exactly how to tear them down."

His Lies, Her Stolen Future

The key turned in the lock with the same familiar click it had for three years, but something felt different the moment I stepped into our apartment. The air carried an unfamiliar sweetness—jasmine perfume where my vanilla scent should have lingered. My heart hammered against my ribs as I dropped my suitcase by the door, the sound echoing through what should have been our sanctuary. "Colten?" My voice cracked slightly as I called out to the empty space. "I'm home early!" Silence answered me. But not the comfortable silence of an empty home waiting for its occupants to return. This was different—heavy with secrets I couldn't yet name. I moved deeper into the living room, my eyes catching on details that didn't belong. A silk scarf draped over the back of our leather couch—powder blue, not my usual jewel tones. Women's magazines scattered across the coffee table where Colten's architectural journals should have been.

Husband's Betrayal

The key felt heavier than usual as I slipped it into the lock of our front door, my heart racing with anticipation. Three days early—Wyatt would never expect me back from the Chicago business conference until Friday. Our fifth wedding anniversary was tomorrow, and I could hardly contain my excitement at the thought of surprising him. The house was unusually quiet as I stepped inside, my heels clicking softly against the marble foyer. Wyatt's car was in the driveway, so he had to be home. Maybe he was in his study, buried in work as usual. I set down my luggage carefully, not wanting to make any noise that might spoil the surprise. I had planned this moment for weeks—slipping away from the conference early, catching the red-eye flight, all to see the look on his face when I appeared unexpectedly. In my purse was the vintage watch I'd found at an antique shop in Chicago, engraved with our wedding date. Wyatt had always been sentimental about meaningful gifts.

Revenge After Faked Death

My boyfriend believed I abandoned him for a life of luxury and took his own life, only to be mysteriously reborn before his death. Thinking fate had handed him a chance for revenge, he staged his death and moved abroad to amass a fortune. Upon his triumphant return, his first act was to destroy my father's company, driving it to bankruptcy. This forced my mother into a mental institution and left my younger siblings homeless. He even declared that unless I groveled and begged for miles, he wouldn't stop his revenge against my family. What he didn't know was that on the day his death was announced, I too had taken my own life, driven by love for him. Six years after my death, Jasper Martin returned to the United States. His first move was to obliterate the Freeman family business, pushing my father to his death and driving my mother insane. All because I had once humiliated him in his darkest hour, scorning his bankrupt family and his inability to provide the life I desired. I watched him, unrecognizable in his newfound splendor, seated high in his imposing office.

The Alpha's Forbidden Mate: A Heart Shattered

9.3

I’m the sister of a pack Gamma, but in the Nightshade Pack, status is everything. My brother Silas keeps warning me to stay away from the Blackwood family, especially the Alpha, Ryker. But I couldn't help it—I’m in love with Cole, the Alpha’s younger brother. I thought our love was a secret sanctuary, a fated bond that defied the pack’s rigid hierarchy. Today, I decided to surprise him at the Packhouse, hoping to be the light in his stressful life as he prepared for the Alpha’s upcoming mate selection ceremony. I snuck into the West Wing, only to find myself in a room that radiated pure, suffocating power. I didn't know I was in Ryker’s private office. When I touched a silver-framed photo of his parents, the door burst open. Ryker didn't just see a trespasser; he saw a violation. His Alpha Command hit me like a physical blow, forcing me to drop the frame. It shattered against the stone hearth, and with it, my entire world. The rage in his eyes was absolute, a cold, terrifying fury that left me trembling on the floor. His future Luna, Mira, stood by, mocking my pathetic state as I scrambled to escape, my hand sliced open by the jagged glass. Why was he so cruel? And why did the scent of my own love, Cole, seem to make them look at me with even more disdain? I couldn't go back to the life I knew. As I sat sobbing on the stairs, abandoned by the man I loved and broken by his brother, I realized I had been completely blind to the darkness of the Blackwood name. I didn't care about the pack rules anymore. I looked at my bleeding hand and made a silent vow: I would uncover the secret behind why the Alpha hated me so much, even if it destroyed the very foundation of the pack.
