In the heart of the Silver Moon Pack, power dynamics were as intricate and delicate as the threads of a spider's web. Luna Rachel, revered and feared, held an iron grip over her son Sebastian, the future Alpha. Her influence was unquestioned until Cassandra entered their lives. Cassandra was a striking woman, sharp of mind and will, with ambitions that reached far beyond the traditional roles expected of her. When she married Sebastian, it wasn't out of love but rather a calculated move to ascend the ranks within the pack. Luna Rachel saw through her immediately. From the moment Cassandra stepped into the grand hall of the pack house, Luna Rachel's eyes had followed her with a mixture of suspicion and disdain. Cassandra, sensing the animosity, responded with a cold civility that masked her true intentions. Their interactions were a dance of veiled insults and subtle power plays. Luna Rachel had always envisioned a compliant daughter-in-law, someone she could mold and control. Cassa
In the early hours of the night , Cassandra's was in her private quarters in the Moonhart Park pack house. The room is dimly lit, filled with an air of secrecy. Cassandra and her mother, Sophia, are seated close together, speaking in hushed , Mother, we need to talk. It's about Amelia and Lycan I have another plan that can destroy them and their marriage she said . Sophia nodded with a glint of cunning in her eyes I knew you'd come to me. What is it, dear? What’s your plan? Cassandra clenching her fists said I've had enough of seeing Amelia happy and in love while I'm stuck in this pathetic excuse for a marriage. Lycan is the key. If I can seduce him, it will destroy Amelia and their relationship. He’s the heart of their bond. Break him, and she’ll crumble. Sophia smiling slyly said I’ve always said you were destined for greater things than this. Sebastian was a means to an end, but now, Lycan... He’s the prize. How do you plan to approach him? Cassandra think carefully Lycan ha
Cassandra sits in a dimly lit cell, her defiant attitude slowly giving way to a mixture of anger and despair. She hears footsteps approaching and looks up to see Sophia standing outside her cell.Cassandra said coldly What do you want, Mother? Come to gloat?Sophia sighing deeply Cassandra, I didn't come to gloat. I came to understand. Why did you go down this path? Why couldn't you see the destruction you were causing?Cassandra cried bitterly You wouldn't understand. You've always been content with mediocrity. I wanted more—for both of us.Sophia said softly More at what cost? Look around you, Cassandra. You've torn this pack apart. You've lost everything, including yourself.Cassandra in a defensive mood said I did it for power, for respect. I wanted to make us stronger.Sophia nodded shaking her head and said You confuse strength with tyranny. Real power comes from unity, trust, and love. Not from fear and manipulation.Cassandra said angrily and was surprised at her mother change
I could feel a smile on my face as I woke up today. It was my birthday and also the day I would finally meet my mate. Many times, I wondered how people found their mates. I had imagined it would be under the moon, with lots of family members cheering for us. Then the Alpha would call us in, me and my mate and we would kiss each other while the others applauded us. “Wake up from your dream.” I urged myself, then laughed. It was going to be a good day, I could feel it in my bones. I went to the bathroom and I made sure to brush properly, many times in case I had to kiss my mate. I tidied up my room very quickly because I had to make breakfast for Mother and Cassandra. I took the framed picture of my father, smiled at it and then told him what today was. “Dad, today is the day finally.” I was literally dancing, the way a new bride dances on her wedding day even though there was no music, just the one playing in my head. “Did something happen?” It was Mother, she was standing at
I stood there for a minute until he turned back at me. “What happened?” Cassandra asked, eventually finding out that I was there and that Alpha Sebastian was staring at me. “Why are you staring at her?” “That can't be him.” I whispered to my wolf. “That's the Alpha's son, the soon to be Alpha, Cassandra's boyfriend. How can he be my mate? Impossible.” With the way he was staring, I knew he felt the same way I felt. He realized too that his mate was standing before him. “No way.” I heard him scream before running out and Cassandra followed suit. Was I dreaming? How could it be that the Alpha's son, Sebastian was my mate? It was terrifying thinking about it but I couldn't stop the thought. I had mixed feelings about this discovery, did I like that he was my mate? I wasn't sure but since it was from the moon goddess, I would surely accept him. Maybe it was my destiny to become a Luna after all. I worked hard at the warehouse factory today, everything was looking good. After the wh
I sat in front of the mirror in Mother's room as the omegas helped me get dressed. It was a big day for me, not a happy one though. I was getting married to the most cruel Alpha and not for the sake of love but to pay my father's debt and to save his factory from being destroyed. Alpha Lycan was known for his cruel and wicked behavior to the people that crossed him. He was the strongest Alpha of the strongest park ever known. People knew him as an Alpha who cared about no one except himself. The Alphas of smaller clans stayed out of his way but here I am preparing to be his wife at eighteen. “Put on a smile.” Mother urged me. After our fight that night, I had thought about giving up my father's inheritance or getting married to a man I didn't know or love. I chose the latter and informed her, she was so glad to hear that. I knew she was not truly happy for me, she was only trying to pave a way for her daughter so she could marry the Alpha Sebastian. She had also been given gi
I walked into the party with my yellow dress. I'll see how the Alpha would ignore me now. The dress did wonders for me because I got stares as I walked into the hall. Kade showed me the right place to sit, beside my Alpha. As I sat, I could see the sudden flash on his face. He wasn't used to people going against his orders. “What's this?” I smiled and whispered to him. “You finally notice me, huh?” I smiled as I watched him, stare at me. I liked that I made him see that he wasn't just the rude one and I could do whatever I wanted to. As we sat throughout the ceremony which was basically an after party for I and Alpha Lycan, I could sense him staring multiple of times. I didn't know if it was because he found me attractive in this dress or because I went against his orders. “I want to know about your rejection.” I literally freezed when he asked me. How did he hear about that? Who informed him? “Well, I don't want to speak about it.” I told him, facing the ceremony. “I wa
The days that followed were filled with relentless work. Alpha Lycan assigned me various tasks around his mansion and the surrounding lands, testing my resilience and dedication. I worked tirelessly, driven by the promise of saving my father's factory. One evening, as I was organizing some files in his office, Alpha Lycan entered. His presence was imposing, and I couldn't help but feel a mixture of fear and admiration for him. "Amelia," he said, his tone surprisingly gentle, "you've been working hard. I must admit, your dedication is impressive." "Thank you, Alpha," I replied, trying to hide my surprise. "I'm willing to do whatever it takes." He nodded, his expression thoughtful. "I've been considering your situation. Your father’s debt is substantial, but your efforts have not gone unnoticed. I propose an alternative." My heart pounded in my chest. "What do you mean?" Alpha Lycan sat down across from me, his gaze intense. "I need a personal assistant, someone I can trust
