BUTTERCUP

That voice cut through the chaos and everyone froze.

I blinked hard, my heart still racing from Viktor's outstretched paw. Draven's hand gripped mine tighter, almost painful and Kai moved his stance beside me, ready to fight. Seraphina's eyes widened for once, losing that smug look.

A third massive wolf stepped out from the shadows near the broken balcony, his fur rippling as he shifted smoothly into human form right there in front of us. He stood tall, maybe six foot four, with broa

  • Luna's Rejection: Draven's Dirty Secret    Chapter 34: Draven Faces His Failures

    DRAVEN "Show me the journal, Kai. Now." I closed the door to the records room shut behind, my voice hoarse from the pack meeting that still rang in my ears. The sound of their doubts, their whispers...all of it clung to me like smoke. Buttercup positioned herself in-between, her hand resting on my forearm as though she feared I might break something. Asher observed from the corner, maintaining his silence.Kai surrendered the worn leather book without resistance. The binding cracked softly as he extended it toward me. "Mara wrote most of it," he said, and I caught the tremor in his voice when he spoke her name. "My lost love. She figured out the Shadow Keeper before it took her." He gulped hard. "Draven, you need to read the parts about your father."I flipped through the pages rapidly, my eyes scanning the elegant handwriting that belonged to a woman I'd never met. The words blurred for a moment before snapping into sharp focus. "This says my father was forming a triple bond too.

    KAI "The Shadow Keeper is coming for me in three days?" Buttercup's voice shook as she read the witch's message again. She looked at me with those eyes full of fear. "Kai, what the hell is this thing? Asher's vision, the messenger... it's all pointing at me." I pulled her away from the main hall, away from Draven's barking orders at the warriors and Asher standing quietly like always. My side still ached from the earlier fight, but I ignored it. "Come with me. There's something that I've never told anyone. Not even Draven. You need to hear it now." Buttercup followed me to a quiet side room in the mansion, her hands were tight in mine. "You're scaring me, Kai. You've always been the easy one. The one who jokes. So, what could you be hiding?" I closed the door and leaned against it, running a hand through my brown hair. "I went rogue from this pack years ago. Not because I hated rules. Because Draven refused to listen to something hunting us. And it was all about the Shadow Keep

  • Luna's Rejection: Draven's Dirty Secret    Chapter 32: The Prophet's Warning

    BUTTERCUP "Asher, what do you mean one of us won't survive?" I gripped Draven's arm tighter, my voice cracking as the warning echoed through the new bond link. The pack still chattered around me after the fight, but all I could focus on was the dread in Asher's words. Draven pulled me closer, as he scanned the crowd. "Talk fast, Kane. We just finished one battle. I don't want to lose anyone else." Kai stepped in on my other side, his face showed the seriousness that I have never seen him on. "Yeah, spill it. The corruption is supposed to be your job to clean. Why are you pulling out early?" Asher appeared at the edge of the gathering, his face looked tired but his eyes were sharp. He moved through the wolves like they weren't even there. Meanwhile, he wasn't the one there. It was just like a hologram. Then his hologram turned to the real Asher. "I felt the pull and the vision sharpened. Someone from outside is coming. And they are the old enemies. Seraphina's father is gathering

    DRAVEN ***The next day came in the blink of an eye. And at dawn, I got myself ready for the big fight."You ready to lose everything, old man?" Ronan, the challenger, snarled as he circled me in the fighting pit at dawn, his massive frame covered in scars from years of pack challenges that I myself haven't experienced. The whole Black Moon Pack surrounded the ring, their eyes were hungry for blood and with the look from their eyes, it showed that they'll forever mock who the loser is.I shifted fully into my wolf form, as silver-gray fur rippling under the morning light. My teeth were replaced with fangs. My claws dug into the dirt. "The only thing I'm losing today is your bullshit challenge. Buttercup stays and the bonds stay too."Buttercup's voice came through the new bond link, it was shaky but clear. 'Draven, please be careful. I feel your wolf raging. Don't let him push you.'Kai's presence joined in, it was steady and sharp. 'He's strong but slow on the left side. Use that to

  • Luna's Rejection: Draven's Dirty Secret    Chapter 30: Pack Revelation

    BUTTERCUP ****BACK IN THE PACK "Draven, they're already whispering. We can't wait any longer." I gripped his arm as we stood at the edge of the main hall, my heart was already pounding loud enough for the whole pack to hear. The trinity mark on my neck still tingled from the new bonds, but the fear in my stomach felt heavier.Draven looked down at me, with a calm expression. "I know, little one. They'll hear everything. You're my Luna. And it's time for me to face it."Kai stood on my other side, his arm was loose around my waist. "Ready for the circus? Some of them won't like it, but we've got your back."The hall filled fast. As werewolves in sharp suits and casual gear packed the space. The whispers started the second I walked in with both Draven and Kai. The Elders sat at the front table, and their faces were already hard with concern. One older man with gray streaks in his hair glared right at me.Draven stepped onto the raised platform, his voice rose louder than I have ever

  • Luna's Rejection: Draven's Dirty Secret    Chapter 29: Asher's Delay

    ASHER "The dark magic is spreading faster than I thought." I stepped forward from the cracked pillars, my voice was steady even as the ground still hummed with leftover corruption. Buttercup looked up at me, and her eyes were full of questions and a hint of hurt. Draven and Kai stood on either side of her, and their tension was thick.Buttercup rose to her feet, the trinity mark on her neck was still glowing softly. "Asher, you said your bond would come when I'm ready. But now you're holding back it completely? Then when?"I met her gaze directly, keeping my hands at my sides and thinking of the right response to give her. "I am ready, Buttercup. More than you know it. But completing the trinity right now would kill us all."Draven chuckled in a way that wasn't triggered by any humor. "Explain that fast, Kane. We just fought through hell and you're talking about waiting?"Kai crossed his arms, and smiled calmly. "Yeah, talk. Buttercup has been through enough rejections. So, don't add

    BUTTERCUP “Hold her tight,” Seraphina ordered her friends before rushing off with the warrior. “Don’t let the little human move an inch.”The red-haired girl gripped my left arm harder, her nails digging in. “You heard her. Stay still, pet.”I tried to yank away but the platinum blonde lady on my

    BUTTERCUP “Take it,” Draven growled, pounding into me harder from behind. “All of it.” I gripped the edge of his desk so tight my knuckles turned white, moaning loudly with every deep thrust with one hand fisted in my hair, the other digging into my hip. “Draven...fuck...slower,” I gasped, ev

    BUTTERCUP I heard the door shut behind Draven and finally let myself fall apart.Sobs tore out of my throat as I slid down the wall and my knees hitting the cold floor. “Why won’t you just let me go?” I whispered to the empty room. My body still ached from him, his scent still clung to my skin, bu

    BUTTERCUP I covered my mouth with the back of my palm and I was barely breathing. “A human? Don’t be ridiculous,” Seraphina said below me. “But if you’re serious about this double mate bond thing with her, we handle it quietly. She can never know the full truth.” Draven’s voice came next, low a
