~ Maya ~

I don't think this evening can get any worse. I've endured enough for one day—all these fake "Congratulations, Luna" and "wishing you the best," said in voices sweeter than honey while mockery sits plain in their eyes.

Derek's heavy gaze on me all night, then him storming off after the mating ritual without letting me say a single word.

Harvey's fake tenderness for show, and the murderous glares he throws me whenever no one's watching, all while he downs one drink after another.

    ~ Maya ~I walk to the parking lot with my shoulders squared and my chin raised high. Have I taken verbal jabs from the Devereux family before? Absolutely — just never so openly. Luna Alana and Karina have always thought I’m not worthy of Derek, and they’ve never bothered to hide it. The difference is that this time, instead of shrinking and swallowing the insult, I fought back. And it feels damn good.I’m practically floating, a warm feeling spreading through my chest, as if the sun itself is shining brighter today. I look up at the clear sky and smile wide.But my smile vanishes the moment I see my car.Scrawled across the hood, in crimson: SLUT.For a second I freeze, blinking — and a loud growl pulls me out of my stupor.“Whoever did this will pay. I’m pulling the camera footage,” Nico snarls through gritted teeth, rushing to my side.I pull a pack of wet wipes from my bag and start scrubbing it off. At least it isn’t paint — just lipstick, and the same shade of red Karina was wea

    ~ Harvey ~The sky is gray and stormy, and the inside of my own skull is worse. Last night replays in pieces I’d rather not look at—her face, the things I said, the door slamming behind me. Zev hasn’t spoken to me since.When I reach for him, he bares his teeth.“I told you—hurt Maya and I won’t shift. And you wounded her.”Then he shuts me out.Hurt her how? By telling her the truth, or by having sex with her—which she obviously enjoyed? The memory of it heats my blood despite everything. Somehow, with her, it’s mind-blowing; she makes the pleasure sharper, more intense than anyone ever has. Too bad it will never happen again.For half a second her face surfaces—the way it looked right after, flushed and vulnerable, before I opened my mouth and ruined it. Something twists low in my gut. I shove it down before it can take shape. She drugged me. She trapped me. Whatever I said, she earned it.But a sulking wolf who refuses to shift is a problem. I have a border to inspect and no fur to

"You're the luckiest girl alive, Maya. A Luna now. And don't worry—Alpha Harvey will soften toward you eventually. You're his mate, after all."I want to put a stop to this whole circus and leave. Instead I sit here repeating it silently like a mantra. “Nico… Stacey…” They're the only reason I'm still in this chair, plastering on a polite smile, playing the docile, pretty ornament.And now I'm staring at my mate and his beloved, af

    ~ Harvey ~ The ballroom doors open, and Maya steps onto the ceremonial carpet on her father's arm. My eyes widen slightly, and my breath catches. I just stare at her, fully enchanted. Zev purrs, ecstatic, watching her move down the aisle toward us. Her dress is a very simple—an unadorned gown that hugs her curves before spilling across the floor. Her shoulders are bare, no jewellery, just beautiful porcelain skin. Her light brown hair is swept into a simple updo, a few curls framing her face. I've seen Maya countless times before, at pack gatherings, on the days Derek brought her home. She was undeniably pretty, but never the kind to stand out from the crowd. Always dressed conservatively, politely, desperate to fit in. Around our mother, she always looked afraid to even breathe, as if a single wrong move might offend her. But today, she's like a caterpillar no one noticed, transformed into a stunning butterfly. Or maybe I never really looked at her properly. She's tall, easily a

    ~ Maya ~"Am I moving to Derek's wing after the ceremony?" I ask, remembering that I need to pack.I've wasted so much time on the drama, and now I have to finish a dozen things at once: pack my life away, clear my mind, and somehow prepare for a mating ceremony.My dad raises an eyebrow, looking at me utterly puzzled. "Maya, you are mating Alpha Harvey. Naturally, you will be moving to his quarters after the ceremony."I stare at my dad without blinking. Have I misheard him? No, he clearly said "Harvey." Is this a joke? My retired Gamma father is a ruthless man who doesn't pull pranks, but my brain still can't process his words."Dad, you're joking, right?"He shakes his head. In his gaze, I don't find even a trace of amusement. He is dead serious.I feel the blood drain from my face—I must be white as a primed canvas. I freeze, too stunned to react. My hands won't hold still as I take a step back. It can't be Harvey. I can't mate Harvey. He's the Alpha of our pack, the older brother

  • Marked by My Fiancé's Brother   Chapter 3

    ~ Harvey ~The conference room smells of wood and old fashioned perfume, and I can’t sit still in it.I take the chair at the head of the table anyway, because that’s what they expect, and greet the elders with a stiff nod I don’t feel. My thoughts are everywhere but here. Drugged. Sex with my brother’s fiancée. An explicit video of the two of us already crawling across every screen in the territory. My phone has buzzed against my thigh a dozen times—Gina, again. I can’t blame her; the rumors will have reached her by now, and she has every right to be furious. I’ll find a way to make it up to her. Later.Derek’s chair sits empty. Too gutted by Maya’s betrayal to show his face, I assume.“Alpha—” Elder James begins.“Another vampire attack?” The strikes have been coming more often, and only ever against my pack—which makes no sense, since on paper we’re at peace with the vampires.James clears his throat. “No. We’ve gathered to discuss how to proceed… with your new mate.”The word mate
