Chapter 1

The moment I found myself standing outside Kael's study again, I realized I had been reborn.My entire body was trembling.Their voices were too familiar. For a moment, I thought I was trapped in another nightmare.Behind the door, one of Kael's friends said. "Are you really not going to tell Lyra about this?""Changing the Marking Ceremony venue is a big deal. If she finds out you made the decision without asking her, she's going to lose it."Kael let out a sigh. "That's exactly why I'm not telling her.""She's about to become my Luna, yet she still gets jealous over the smallest things. If she finds out now, it'll just turn into another argument, and I'll have to spend days calming her down."He chuckled softly. "Besides, Lyra loves me. She would do anything for me."Kael shrugged as if it were obvious. "When the rogues attacked, she threw herself in front of a silver blade to save me. That's how she got those Silver Scars.""Changing the venue is hardly a big sacrifice. she'll find

Chapter 2

I stumbled back to the pack house in a daze. The moment I closed the door behind me, all the strength left my body.I collapsed onto the couch and finally broke down.When I first suggested holding our Marking Ceremony at Moon Bay, Kael had looked at me with such gentle eyes."Okay," he'd said with a smile.I thought he understood. Moon Bay wasn't just another place. It was where we first met and fell for each other.The day a pack of rogue wolves ambushed him at Moon Bay, one of them lunged at him with a silver blade.I threw myself in front of Kael without thinking, taking the blade meant for him.That was the day I was left with the Silver Scars that would never fade.At the pack’s healing den, Kael had held my hand and cried like a child.He barely left my side for days, refusing to sleep as he kept watch over me. He promised he would spend the rest of his life making me happy.Looking back now...Promises were the easiest thing to break.I wanted to cry. But I had left all my tear

Chapter 3

The next morning, Kael drove me to the bridal boutique. Neither of us spoke during the entire drive.When we stopped at a red light, he tapped his fingers impatiently against the steering wheel.Every now and then, I could feel him glancing in my direction.I kept my eyes on the scenery outside the window and never looked back.In the end, he was the first to break the silence."The snow blankets everything in pure white this time of year." He paused. "I bet Snowpeak Mountain is even more beautiful."I didn't respond. After a moment, he tried again. "I heard the first snowfall came early this year.""They say couples who complete their Marking Ceremony there receive the Moon Goddess's greatest blessing.""Oh." That was all I said.An awkward look crossed his face."I mean..." he continued, "you only have one Marking Ceremony in your life. Don't you want it to be somewhere more meaningful?"I frowned. So the place where we first met...The place where I almost lost my life...Meant less

Chapter 4

In Kael's eyes, I had never once come before Isabella. Not even when my Silver Scar treatment first started.My entire body had burned with an unbearable itch, the herbal paste seeping into my skin as if thousands of ants were crawling beneath it.He had only glanced at me and said, "It's just a little itching. Stop being so dramatic."Then he walked away. To comfort Isabella because she had a headache.Every time I disagreed with him, he had the same answer."You're going to be Ravencrest Pack's Luna. Then start carrying yourself like one."Our engagement ring, the one he had promised to place on my finger, became nothing more than an accessory for Isabella.On my birthday, he left while I was still making my wish because Isabella had called him to accompany her on a late-night patrol.He forgot our anniversary, then bought tickets to take Isabella to the seaside instead.One memory after another flooded back. I should have let go long ago.As I walked away from the boutique, I heard

Chapter 5

I stood at the edge of Moon Bay, a bouquet of moonlit roses resting in my hands.The wedding music had already begun. On the other end of the phone, Kael heard it and his voice came, strained and confused."Where are you? I don't see you anywhere."I smiled as I looked across the shimmering lake. "The moonlight in Moonbay is beautiful tonight, isn't it?"Kael spoke, panic had crept into his voice."Moon Bay? You're at Moon Bay?""Yes."His voice grew sharp. "Didn't you check the ceremony details before you left?""I changed the venue."I watched the moon ripple across the water. "I know.""I knew you moved it to Snowpeak Mountain."Then his voice cracked."You knew? Then why would you go there?""Were you trying to humiliate me?"A quiet laugh escaped my lips. "Humiliate you?""You're the one who changed our Marking Ceremony without telling me.""You made me the fool. And now you're accusing me?"Kael fell silent. When he finally spoke again, his confidence was gone."I...I wanted it to

Chapter 6

The wedding march echoed softly through Moon Bay as I stepped beneath the white stone arch.Moonlit roses rested in my hands. At the end of the aisle stood the man who had waited for me.Cassian Ashbourne. Alpha of Ashbourne Pack.Ashbourne and Evermoon had been allies for generations. Our families had known each other long before I was born.Growing up, whenever my parents attended alliance meetings, Cassian was always there.He was a few years older than me. Calm and patient.The kind of person who never raised his voice, yet somehow made everyone around him feel safe."Cassian."I gently called his name, "You came."He smiled as our eyes met. "I said I would."For a brief moment, neither of us spoke.The years between us seemed to disappear beneath the moonlight.After I took the silver blade for Kael, the Silver Scars spread across nearly half my body.The pain came and went without warning. Even after the wounds had healed, the scars never truly stopped burning, and I needed regula

Chapter 7

By the time Kael arrived at Moon Bay, the Marking Ceremony was already over.Cassian and I stood by the lakeshore, watching silver moonlight ripple across the water."Lyra." His voice was hoarse.I turned around. His eyes were bloodshot as he strode toward me and grabbed my wrist."All I did was change the ceremony venue.""You threw everything away for that?""You married to someone else?"I calmly pulled my hand free. "You still don't understand. There is nothing left between us.""You should go."His face turned pale. "What do you mean there's nothing left? I'm your mate.""Not anymore." I slipped my hand into Cassian's and turned to leave.Kael stepped in front of us. His gaze landed on Cassian."Who is he? If you're angry with me, take it out on me.""But marrying a stranger? That's insane."I looked him straight in the eyes. "I've known Cassian longer than I've known you.""He's never been a stranger."For a moment, Kael froze. Then rage consumed him. "So that's it.""You've been

Chapter 8

Three days later, Cassian and I returned from Moon Bay.Our new home wasn't far from Ashbourne territory. As our car pulled into a quiet street, Kael suddenly showed up.He looked like a completely different person.His beard had grown in. Dark circles hung beneath bloodshot eyes. His clothes were wrinkled, and he looked as though he hadn't slept. The moment he saw me, a spark of hope returned to his empty eyes."Lyra..." he grabbed my wrist. "we need to talk."Cassian's expression darkened instantly. "Let her go."Kael didn't move. "Please. Just give me a few minutes."I let out a sigh and gently pulled my hand free. "Three minutes. That's all you have."Kael’s body went rigid, then he bowed his head deeply, one hand pressed hard against his chest as if trying to hold himself together."I'm really sorry, Lyra." His shoulders trembled. "I remember everything now. I have been wrong to you."With shaking hands, he reached into his pocket and carefully pulled out a ring."Look, this is t

Chapter 9

The next morning, the news spread through every Pack.Alpha of Ravencrest Pack Severely Injured After Rogue Attack at Moon Bay.I read the headline only once before putting my phone down.A few minutes later, it rang. It was one of Kael's closest friends."Lyra..." His voice was exhausted. "Could you come see him?""He's been calling your name ever since they brought him back."He hesitated before adding quietly, "If you don't come now...""...this may be your last chance."I was silent for a moment. Then I answered calmly. "No.""There is nothing left between us.""There's no reason for either of us to hold on anymore."I ended the call...."She doesn't want to see me... does she?" Kael forced the words out through cracked lips.His friend couldn't bring himself to answer. But Kael understood anyway.A tear slipped from the corner of his eye.The door opened. Isabella walked in carrying a simple bouquet of white lilies. Their faint scent filling the sterile room, Kael smiled. "Isabe
