Who Is The Rejected Luna In 'Waking'?

They were already married for three years when Alpha Damian Zeus’s long-lost first love, Lily, returned bringing along a five-year-old pup. Luna Ariana Volkstane slid the formal rejection request across the table. "Let's end this bond. It's better for you, me, and your first love." He just smirked. "You want me to reject you? You think you can break our bond that easily?" So she did. Ariana cut ties with him completely, poured herself into her career, and rose to global fame as a legendary healer, her knowledge of rare herbs, wolf anatomy, and ancient magic sought after across continents. The powerful suitors lined up. The Alpha of an overseas empire whispered, "Ariana, hurry up and perform the severing ritual. I can't wait to claim you." A powerful pack leader vowed, "I'll be there with you the day you break the bond." A legendary wolf attorney promised, "I'll handle your rejection case with the pack council myself." Ariana just rubbed her temples. It's not that she didn't want the split, she wanted it more than anything, it's just that the Alpha she was mated to refused to let go. Finally, she announced, "Whoever can officially get me rejected, I'll put you at the head table of my bond-breaking celebration." Not long after, Alpha Damian was served the official rejection request right in the middle of an emergency pack council meeting. That same afternoon, he was attacked by rogues at the gates of his own territory. When Ariana showed up at the pack infirmary with healing herbs, she repeated calmly, "Let's sever the mate bond. It's better for you, me, and everyone else." But the cold, untouchable Alpha pulled her into his arms, his eyes blood-red with fury. "You want me to reject you? Over my dead body."

Lara was never meant to be a Luna in their eyes—an orphan, wolfless, and burdened with a mark the pack called a curse. Yet fate bound her to Alpha Matteo, a powerful leader torn between destiny and duty. But love in a ruthless pack is fragile. When the elders pressure him and Lara’s inability to conceive becomes a problem for the pack, Matteo makes an unthinkable choice—he rejects her and casts her aside. In her place rises Selene, a seemingly delicate woman who quickly secures her position as the future Luna immediately she was announced to be pregnant with Matteo's son. Broken and discarded, Lara is forced into exile… unaware that her fall is only the beginning of something far greater than anyone could imagine.

To let Alpha Duncan's first love become the mother of our son, my husband didn’t hesitate to commit perjury in court and personally send me, his wife, to prison. Four years later, after I was released, just as I was starting to regain hope for life, dozens of luxury cars showed up at the prison gate, with two people stepping out. “How could you?! How could you do something so evil?! You should never have been my mom. I wish Auntie Ashley has always been my mother!” My heart broke. Seeing my husband and son again, I felt like they were real demons, turning me away so easily. Just then, the little boy beside me stepped forward. “Don’t bully Mommy!” Hearing this, my biological son angrily asked, “Who are you calling ‘mommy’?! I’m her only son!” I didn’t want to deal with them or explain anything. I just wanted to live a good life with my Justin. I crouched down, hugged him, comforted him in saying, “Justin, there’s nothing to say to these people... We’re overstaying our welcome. Come on.” “Halt right there!”

Aria always thought her life was pretty straightforward. She’d stand beside her mate, Kael, and someday be Luna, the future Alpha’s queen. That dream burns out in front of everyone the night their mate bond finally blazes—Kael doesn’t hesitate, he rejects her outright and picks someone else to be his Luna. The humiliation stings. Aria bolts into the forest, heart shattered, convinced she’s lost it all—her future, her pack, even her sense of belonging. But fate’s stubborn, and it’s got other plans. Turns out, Aria’s blood carries something ancient, a force even older than the packs. When her wolf finally wakes—she’s not just any wolf, but the legendary Silver Wolf, believed extinct—rumors start flying. Alphas whisper about some old prophecy: a woman destined to become the Moon Queen, ruler of all wolves. Training to control her wild new power is no easy ride. Suddenly, everyone’s after her. Ruthless Alphas want her for themselves, shadows stir with dangerous enemies, and the guy who threw her away finally realizes he might’ve lost the future Queen of all wolves. But Aria’s done being broken. She’s tougher now, forging herself from the hurt, and when the war over the throne heats up, every pack out there will see it: the rejected Luna isn’t just surviving—she’s become the strongest wolf alive. With the Blood Moon rising and ancient enemies crawling out of hiding, Aria faces her hardest choice yet. Is she ready to take the crown fate picked for her? Because stepping up as Moon Queen could cost her everything she still loves.

Betrayed by the one she called her mate, and sister, Bella was humiliated and thrown from the pack. She vowed to take revenge on those who hurt her. When Alpha Arthur found her bleeding and left for dead by the side of the road, he healed her and took her to his pack. After rejecting Bella, he regretted it very much. When he met Bella again, there was Arthur by her side.

She was to be set out as a debt to be paid. He is known to be the ruthless Alpha of a pack, feared by many and dared by none. By ancient rites and moonlight ceremonies, turning eighteen means everything to werewolf shifters. It is aligned with their tradition, holding a great celebration. For Kiara, it should be a day to be merry, the day she finally confirms her bond with her boyfriend and future Alpha, Jason. Rather, it becomes the moment her world is blurred. "I, Jason, hereby reject you as my Luna." Ridiculed as a “freak” for her inability to shift, Kiara is publicly rejected by the boy she loves — replaced by her sister, Erina, and humiliated in front of the entire pack—Heartbroken, backstabbed, and renounced by everyone including her family. Kiara is sent out against her will to live with Alpha Ryder, who had provided a handsome loan to her parents to cure an ailment. Her stay at the Alpha was prolonged and intriguing. She discovers that she has never been a freak but rather descended from the Lunaries. The drama unfolds, tragedy awaits, torn between love and war. She learns great strength and endurance. She becomes a body of attraction to the Alpha. Would her stay in the new pack be worth her first rejection or would it consume her?
