LOGIN“I, Alpha Lucien Blackthorn, reject you as my mate and Luna.” Those seven words shatter Felicia Ashbourne’s world. Branded wolfless, worthless, and cursed since birth, Felicia spent four years loving an Alpha who only dared love her in secret. But when the beautiful Selene Ravenshade claims she’s carrying Lucien’s heir, he chooses his pack, his crown, and his legacy over the woman who would have given him everything. Rejected. Banished. Forgotten. With nothing but the clothes on her back and a strange birthmark she’s hidden her entire life, Felicia is left for dead until a mysterious kingdom rescues her and uncovers an impossible truth. She was never an orphan. She is the lost princess of Silvercrest. Her birthmark isn’t a curse. It’s the seal of the Moon Goddess’s Chosen Queen, and the wolf everyone believed she lacked has been waiting for the right bloodline to awaken. As kingdoms kneel before their rightful queen, Lucien realizes the greatest mistake of his life. But Felicia is no longer the broken girl he abandoned. She’s carrying a secret that could change the werewolf world forever four unborn heirs. Now an Alpha who chose power over love must decide how far he’ll go to win back the queen who no longer needs him.

It was the sound of a father’s heart breaking for his daughter.⸻“The spy can wait,” Orion told the guard, not even turning his head. “My daughter cannot.”The guard vanished back down the path, and my father sank onto the stone bench beneath the moon trees, waiting for me to finish what I’d barely started, his hands folded so tightly together his knuckles had gone pale.I told him everything. The crystals. The healer’s trembling hands. Not one child.Four.His face moved through disbelief, then grief, then something harder … rage that had nowhere to land … before settling into a guilt so raw it made my own chest ache to watch it settle over him, his shoulders curling inward like the weight of it was physical.“If I’d found you sooner,” he said, voice cracking down the middle, “…none of this would have happened.”I had no comfort to offer him. I wasn’t su
“Your Majesty…” the royal healer whispered, her hand frozen above my stomach. “When was the last time you shared a Moon Bond with your mate?”I felt every drop of blood leave my face.“…Before he rejected me.”The healer closed her eyes.“Oh… Moon Goddess.”⸻I’d slipped out of my chambers before sunrise, careful to avoid Cassian’s watchful eyes and Orion’s early rounds, my bare feet silent against cold stone, my heart hammering the entire way down those corridors like I was doing something wrong instead of something necessary. I told myself the pulses in the garden had been exhaustion, nothing more.I told the healer the same lie the moment I sat down across from her.She didn’t believe it for a second, her eyes narrowing slightly even as her hands stayed gentle.The moment she laid her silver crystals across my stomach, they lit up brighter than I’d ever seen them glow, throwing sudden light across the whole chamber, and her calm, professional expression cracked straight down the mi
“Your Majesty…” the blood-soaked guard gasped, collapsing onto one knee. “The northern border has fallen.”The room went silent.Then he looked straight at me.“They weren’t looking for land… they were looking for you.”⸻The torches had barely been relit after the dark voice in the summit hall vanished as fast as it came, guards still sweeping the corridors for whoever had spoken, when this new horror staggered through the doors and finished what the first one started.Entire patrols slaughtered along the northern border. No pack insignia on the attackers. Military precision, not raiding chaos. And one question, repeated to every dying soldier before the killing blow.Where is the Chosen Queen.One soldier, the guard said, voice cracking, had lived just long enough to whisper that the attackers knew our patrol routes before they arrived. Someone inside Silvercrest had handed them the map.This wasn’t an invasion. It was a hunt, and I was the only thing they were hunting.⸻Orion call
“Tell me something, Alpha…” I said before he could speak. “Did you come here to apologize… or to watch the woman you destroyed wear a crown?”Silence crashed between us.For the first time since rejecting me, Alpha Lucien Blackthorn had no answer.⸻Three days had passed since the blade meant for me had opened a wound in his shoulder instead … a wound my own guards had barely stopped from becoming a grave. He still favored that side, I noticed, a stiffness in the way he stood that no amount of composure could hide.I hadn’t thanked him for it. I wasn’t sure I owed him that, even now.The summit reconvened once the hall had been repaired, torches relit, glass swept from the marble. I walked in crowned in silver, flanked by Orion on one side and Cassian on the other, and watched every Alpha who’d once looked at me like a pitiable, wolfless embarrassment rise instead like the floor itself had commanded it.Lucien rose slowest of all. I felt his stillness more than I saw it … the particul
