He rejected her on the Luna ceremony day. Now she's back, with his twins, but he doesn't know it's her... yet. When Sierra Woodsworth, the omega nobody, was revealed as the fated mate to Alpha Isaak Nightingale, the ruthless heir of the Moonbane Pack, the entire werewolf world watched. But instead of accepting her, Isaak rejected her in front of everyone for his long-time lover, the elegant but cruel Bethelina. Heartbroken, Sierra vanished, only to return five years later as a powerful rogue queen leading a hidden pack and guarding two little children, one of whom has Isaak's silver eyes. But she's not here for love. She's here as the neutral power among the powerful packs.... that is until the bond she thought was dead flares to life again. As prophecy awakens and enemies gather, Sierra and Isaak must face the truth: she isn't just his mate. She's the Last Moonborn, the key to saving or destroying them all.

Rejected by the alpha, crowned as the rogue Queen Chapter 1 The Luna Ceremony

SIERRA'S POV

The night of the Luna Ceremony was the kind that made even the mountains hold their breath.

Moonlight spilled like fire over the courtyard, turning stone and steel into something holy. Every torch flickered in rhythm with the wind, every banner of the Moonbane Pack rippled under the blue sky. The air hummed with anticipation, with the scent of wolves and something divine.

And somewhere in the middle of it all stood me.

My name, Sierra. The kennel girl. The lowest omega in Moonbane.

I tugged at the hem of the borrowed gown that hung off my back. It was too big, a hand-me-down from one of the Beta's daughters, yellowed lace, uneven sewing. I'd spent the afternoon scrubbing mud from it just to look halfway decent. It didn't matter. No amount of scrubbing or praying could hide the truth of what I was.

Still, I stood there among the pack, heart hammering, trying not to fidget, trying not to let my nerves show.

Every year, the ceremony was the same: the priestess would call forth the unmated wolves, the Moon Goddess would reveal Her will, and some lucky she-wolf would walk away chosen by fate. Usually, the mates were Betas or warriors. Never an omega.

But the rules said every unmated wolf must attend. So here I was, a shadow among beauty.

It wasn't hard. People didn't see omegas unless they wanted work done. I kept to the back, watching as the Alpha stood at the front of the courtyard.

Isaak.

Our Alpha.

Even from a distance, I could feel the pull of his presence, the commanding power that came with his bloodline. He was tall, broad-shouldered, wrapped in a dark ceremonial cloak that caught the light like storm clouds. His hair gleamed black under the moonlight, and his eyes, gods, his eyes, were gray like winter rain. Cold and sharp like his chiselled jawline. He was the most handsome man I'd ever seen and every she-wolf in the crowd watched him like he was the moon itself.

He was perfect.

And he was everything I was not.

I'd seen him up close only a few times, passing through the training yard or leading a patrol. I'd never spoken to him. I'd never dared. If he'd noticed me at all, it was only because I was a pest in his way.

Still, a part of me, some foolish, naive part, had always wondered what it might feel like to be noticed.

The priestess's voice rose, cutting through the night. "On this sacred night, under the gaze of the Moon Goddess, we call upon Her to reveal the bond of fated souls."

The crowd fell silent.

The priestess lifted a bowl of shimmering water, glowing faintly with moonlight, and dipped her fingers into it. One by one, she called the names of the unmated women, marking their foreheads with a touch of silver. Each time, a faint ripple of power moved through the air.

Some women glowed faintly, their destined mates stepping forward with tears and smiles. Others didn't, and returned to their places with polite disappointment.

And then,

"Sierra of Moonbane."

My name.

I froze, because definitely I'd heard wrong.

The priestess looked around. "Sierra?"

The crowd turned with her.

Dozens of eyes found me, eyes filled with curiosity and disdain at a lowly omega like me.

I wanted to disappear. I wanted to melt into the shadows and pretend I'd never existed. But the priestess's gaze softened. "The Goddess calls all," she said gently.

My legs moved. Each step felt heavier than the last as I walked forward through the parted crowd. When I reached the altar, I knelt. The marble was cold beneath my knees. I kept my head bowed.

The priestess dipped her fingers again into the moonlit water and touched them to my forehead.

For a moment, nothing happened. Then everything did.

Light, pure, silver, blinding, flared around me. It rushed through my chest, my veins, my very soul. My breath caught, and a strange, wild warmth spread through me. My wolf stirred, howling in recognition.

Then I felt it.

The pull.

My head jerked up, and my eyes locked onto him.

Alpha Isaak.

The light between us pulsed, forming a shimmering bond of silver flame that everyone could see.

Gasps rippled through the courtyard.

I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. All I could feel was the bond, his scent wrapping around me like a storm, his heartbeat echoing in my chest, our wolves wanting to claim eachother. It was intoxicating.

I saw the moment he felt it too. His eyes widened for a heartbeat, his body going rigid as the light flickered across his chest.

And then his expression changed.

Shock turned to fury.

His jaw clenched, his eyes darkened, and his entire aura shifted. The whispers died instantly. The air itself seemed to freeze.

He took a slow step toward me.

My voice barely made it out. "Alpha..."

His eyes cut into me. "No."

It was a single word that cracked through the courtyard like thunder.

I blinked, trembling. "The Goddess-"

"I don't care what the Goddess says." His tone was icy, controlled. "This cannot be."

The priestess gasped. "Alpha Isaak, you cannot reject Her will-"

His gaze never left mine. "I can. And I will."

Each word hit like a gut punch.

I felt the crowd's shock ripple through the air, the collective horror of what he was about to do. But I couldn't move.

Kieran stepped closer until his shadow fell over me, his authority rolling off him.

"You are not meant for me," he said, his voice low, harsh. "You are an omega. Weak. Fragile. You would break under the weight of this pack, and I will not let the Moon's mistake destroy what I've built."

Something inside me cracked.

"Please," I whispered, barely audible. "Don't-"

His jaw tightened. "I, Isaak of the Moonbane Pack, reject you, Sierra, as my mate and Luna."

My eyes watered

A small whimper tore from my throat as the bond snapped. I fell forward, clutching my heart. The pain wasn't physical, it was soul-deep, ripping something sacred from me.

The light between us shattered into fragments of silver that scattered across the stones and faded.

The crowd gasped, but no one moved.

Isaak's voice came again, distant, cold. "Let this ceremony continue. The Goddess has made her choice, but I make mine."

And then he turned away.

Just like that.

The man the Goddess herself had chosen for me walked back to the altar without looking back.

I knelt there, shaking, tears burning my eyes. The pain was so fierce I thought it might kill me.

The priestess knelt beside me, her hand hovering over my shoulder. "Child, you must breathe. The bond's breaking is agony, but it will pass."

Pass.

No. It didn't feel like something that would pass. It felt like something had been torn out of me forever.

The whispers started again, low and sharp as knives.

"She's cursed."

"She must have tricked the Goddess."

"The Alpha was right to reject her."

Their words blurred together, meaningless sounds against my ears.

I pushed myself up on shaking arms. My vision swam, but I forced myself to stand. I wouldn't give them the satisfaction of seeing me crawl.

Isaak was still standing before the altar, his back turned, shoulders rigid.

I stared at him for one last moment. The man fate had chosen for me. The man who had looked into my eyes and rejected not just me, but the will of the Moon.

A tremor of something dark and new stirred beneath my skin, hurt, yes, but also anger.

If the Goddess had truly chosen him, then She had made a cruel mistake.

The priestess called my name softly, but I didn't answer. I turned and walked out of the courtyard, the moonlight catching on my tear-streaked face.

Each step was pain, but I didn't stop.

Behind me, the ceremony went on as if nothing had happened. The drums resumed. The torches burned. The Alpha stood untouched.

But as I crossed the threshold into the darkness beyond, I knew something had changed.

I lay paralyzed on stiff white sheets, a prisoner in my own skin, listening to the rain lash against the window like nails on a coffin. My father, Elmore Franco, didn't even look at my face as he checked his clipboard. He just listened to the steady, monotonous beep of the heart monitor-the only thing proving I was still alive. Without a hint of remorse, he pulled a pen from his pocket and signed the Do Not Resuscitate order. My stepmother, Ophelia, stepped out from behind him, wearing my favorite pearl necklace and smelling of cloying perfume. She leaned close to my ear to whisper the truth that turned my blood to ice. "It was the tea, darling. Just like your mother. A slow, tasteless poison." She chuckled as she revealed that my fiancé, Bryce, had a two-year-old son with my sister, Daniela. My inheritance had been funding their secret life for years, and now that the money was secure, I was an inconvenience they were finally scrubbing away. As my father yanked the power cord from the wall, the beeping died, and the darkness swallowed me whole. I was being murdered by my own flesh and blood, used as a bank account until I was no longer needed. I died in that sterile room, drowning in the realization that every person I ever loved was a monster who had been waiting for me to take my last breath. Then, I gasped. I woke up in a luxury hotel suite surrounded by silk sheets, five years in the past-the very morning of my wedding. Next to me lay Basile Delgado, the "Wolf of Wall Street" and my family's most dangerous enemy. In my first life, I ran from this room in a panic and lost everything. This time, I looked at the man who would eventually destroy my father's empire and decided to join him. "I'm not leaving, Basile. Marry me. Right now. Today."

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancé, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.
