True Luna: Rejected, Replaced Chapter 1 1

Nicole's POV

By the time I reached the hospital, dusk had already settled.

On my way, I encountered a gang of robbers. Though I got hurt in the scuffle, I managed to save my part-time job's salary for the month.

Limping, I found a doctor to treat my wounds. Just as the bandaging was finished, a passing nurse peeked in. "Nicole, you're back? Your mother is in critical condition..."

I jumped up, asking urgently, "What happened? Which emergency room?"

She explained, "I'm not sure. It seems like she suddenly had difficulty breathing. She's in the ER on the fifth floor."

My mind went blank as I rushed towards the surgery room, feeling like a moment's delay might cost me something irreplaceable.

Just as I reached the ER, the door opened. The doctor emerged, his expression grave. "Your mother's condition is critical. She needs surgery immediately. If we encounter another situation like today, it will be even more dangerous."

My chest tightened, and I nodded quickly, asking, "How soon can the surgery be arranged?"

He glanced at the clipboard handed by his assistant. "We can schedule it for next Thursday. The surgery will cost around $200,000."

"Alright, please arrange it. I'll get the money as soon as possible."

I agreed and rushed to the billing office to check my mother's medical card balance. There was only a little over a hundred dollars left. After depositing my $1,000 salary into the card, I was left penniless.

I walked back to the ward, feeling dazed, replaying the doctor's words over and over in my mind.

I wanted to cry, but seeing my comatose mother on the bed, I forced the tears back.

I took out my phone and scrolled through my contacts, my finger stopping on Drake's number.

After hesitating for a long time, I stepped out of the ward and made the call.

A cold female voice answered quickly, "Nicole?"

It was my father's current Luna, Kately.

I paused, then asked coldly, "Where's my dad?"

She replied cheerfully, "Your father and I are on vacation with The Silver Lake Pack. Do you need something?"

My grip on the phone tightened until my knuckles turned white. "Put him on the phone."

She chuckled, her tone certain. "You can tell me. He won't want to talk to you."

Standing in the hallway, I glanced at the open door of the ward, my eyes instantly filling with tears.

My mom was lying in the hospital, and I had to work multiple jobs to support us and pay for her medical expenses. Meanwhile, my dad was on vacation abroad with his new wife, refusing to even take my call.

I took a deep breath. "My mom needs surgery. It will cost around $200,000. Please let my dad know."

She sneered, "Money, money, money. Every time you call, it's about money. My husband divorced your mom a long time ago. How dare you still ask us for money? Have you no shame?"

I found it particularly funny and said sarcastically, " Kately, teach me how being a mistress can be as shameless as you are?"

She laughed derisively. "Your father and I are true love. If your mother hadn't cheated, I wouldn't have had the chance to step in. I still have proof of her infidelity on my phone. You can come and see it anytime, or I can send you the photos."

I was stunned. My mother would never have cheated. She had always loved my father deeply.

Just as I was about to refute, I realized how easy it would have been for Drake to fabricate evidence to force my mother to leave a marriage with nothing.

My heart sank into an icy pit, filled with hatred and resentment, feeling a profound sense of injustice for my mom.

Tears stung my eyes. I laughed bitterly, my voice trembling. "So, you're saying my dad won't help with the money, right?"

She answered without hesitation, "No, I won't, and neither will your father."

A wave of sorrow washed over me, almost grateful that my mom was still unconscious. If she were awake, how much more would her heart ache facing her husband's cruelty?

Kately added mockingly, "And by the way, as a wolfless daughter, don't think you're anything special in Drake's heart."

I leaned against the wall, lost in thought long after the call had ended.

Yes, in the werewolf world where strength rules, no one cares about a wolfless outcast, even if they share blood ties.

Sitting beside my mother's bed, looking at her pale face, my heart grew heavier.

My mother comes from a rare lineage of witches. In this family, the men inherit the werewolf bloodline from their fathers, while the women inherit the witch bloodline from their mothers. Witches typically do not have wolves due to their unique powers, but my mother was different. She had a wolf, and a powerful one at that. However, after giving birth to me, she lost her wolf.

She should have had a loving mate and a happy family, but everything shattered because she fell in love with my father.

When my mom was 19, she got pregnant with me and my twin sister Vera. She always said it was love at first sight when she met my father at a party, a moment she would never forget.

My parents, at least my mom, fell in love the moment they met. Even after years of abandonment, her love for him never wavered.

When Vera and I were four, my father had an affair. He filed for divorce, taking Vera and leaving me with my mother.

Despite everything, my mom never harbored any ill will towards him. She never forgot him or let another man into her life. She chose to live with his memory, cherishing me as a gift of her love, giving me everything she had.

After the divorce, she took me, but her clan never accepted me, a werewolf half-breed with neither witch's gift nor a wolf. So, she brought me to the slums on the outskirts of The Cold Moon Pack.

She worked tirelessly, cleaning every corner of the packhouse, even though it was a job for ten Omega werewolves. They dumped their work on her and mocked her for doing it all alone.

The once high and mighty Luna, now worked like a machine, overexerting herself to exhaustion, all to give me a decent life.

She no longer looked like she did in her youth. Her forehead was lined with worry, her deep violet eyes full of fatigue. She was too thin, underweight for her age and height. Yet, despite it all, she still looked young and beautiful, though worn out and weary.

Thinking about how she lost everything and that I was the cause, her weary eyes haunted me day and night, making me wish it had never happened.

Xiao Hong Mao

I lived as the "scarred ghost" of the Stephens penthouse, a wife kept in the shadows because my facial burns offended my billionaire husband’s aesthetic. For years, I endured Kason’s coldness and my family's abuse, a submissive puppet who believed she had nowhere else to go. The end came with a blue folder tossed onto my silk sheets. Kason’s mistress was back, and he wanted me out by sunset, offering a five-million-dollar "silence fee" to go hide my face in the countryside. The betrayal cut deep when I discovered my father had already traded my divorce for a corporate bailout. My step-sister mocked my "trashy" appearance at a high-end boutique, while the sales staff treated me like a common thief. At home, my father threatened to cut off my mother's life-saving medicine unless I crawled back to Kason to beg for a better deal. I was the girl who took the blame for a fire she didn't start, the wife who worshipped a man who never looked her in the eye, and the daughter used as a human bargaining chip. I was supposed to be broken, penniless, and desperate. But the woman who stood up wasn't the weak Elease Finch anymore; she was Phoenix, a tactical predator with a $500 million secret. I signed the divorce papers without a single tear, walked past my stunned husband, and wiped the Finch family's bank accounts clean with a few taps on my phone. "Your money is dirty," I told Kason with a cold smile. "I prefer clean hands." The cage is open, the hunt has begun, and I’m starting with the people who thought a scar made me weak.

The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.

The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback

The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.
