I was Lila, a good-hearted werewolf who had a deep affection for my mate, Ethan. But since he thought I was a traitor, he smashed it. Everything, even my life, was lost when my pack turned against me. I was then given another opportunity as Aria, powerful and prepared to fight back, thanks to a magic moon. I want to hold everyone responsible for my pain accountable, particularly Ethan, who now feels remorse. However, Kael, a new alpha, warms my heart once again. As Ethan follows me, I'm pursuing a different route, caught between love and retaliation. Will I love Kael, forgive him, or get angry and lose myself? Just when I believe I know what I should do, a lunar secret alters everything.
*Point of View: Lila*
It illuminates the camp of the Silver Moon pack, where my family and I reside. Despite being a werewolf, I'm not frightening. I like assisting everyone, and I'm nice. My friend Ethan is my favorite person. He has a broad grin that brightens my heart and he is powerful. We're holding hands as we sit by the fire. I feel secure in his warm touch.
With his hazel eyes gleaming, Ethan declares, "Tonight's special, Lila." "I will soon become alpha."
I squeeze his hand and nod. "You will be the most exceptional alpha ever."
I laugh along with him when he chuckles. Around us, the pack is busy getting ready for a large gathering. Since Ethan will eventually lead us, everyone is thrilled. Sarah, one of my friends, is seen lugging wood. I give her a wave in return. The moon makes everything gleam, and the air has a smoke and pine scent.
I glance at Ethan. "You mean we'll lead together?"
His grin seems a touch amusing, as if he's giving it a lot of thought. Yes, Lila. Together.
I have faith in him. Since we were little, racing through the forest and chasing rabbits, we have been great friends. We are unique because of our mate relationship now that we are adults. It ties our hearts together like a thread. Every time he's close, I sense it.
Clara's golden hair bounces as she passes. Despite her beauty, she never smiles at me. I don't like how much she glances at Ethan. However, I ignore the idea. I am loved by Ethan. He does, I'm sure.
Around the fire, the pack congregates. Elder John, with a gray beard, rises. He claims that Ethan will be a fantastic alpha. "However, he requires a strong partner."
I'm proud. I am that. Ethan's mate is me. However, Ethan doesn't turn away when Clara approaches him. Similar to when I eat too many berries, my stomach feels queasy.
Ethan gets up and says, "Lila, let's go for a walk." He leads me to the towering woods at the outskirts of the camp. As the moon observes us, I am once more joyful.
"How are you, Ethan?" I inquire. He is silent, which is unusual for him.
He gazes at the floor. "Just considering taking the lead. It's a large task.
I put a hand on his arm. "You're capable. I'll assist you.
He nods, but he doesn't give me a glance. "Thank you, Lila."
We return to the fire on foot. There, Clara is conversing with Elder John. Her laughter is keen, like a fox's. I stand by myself for a minute before Ethan joins them. Sarah approaches with anxious brown eyes.
"Are you okay, Lilia?" She queries.
"Yeah," I reply, but my heart aches. Clara and I both giggle as we glance at Ethan. I'm not sure what's wrong, but something is.
Later, I'm preparing for bed in my tent. I grin at the moon shining through the flap. We'll make plans for the future tomorrow, and I adore Ethan. I shut my eyes and imagine ourselves at the front of the group.
I'm awakened by a whisper. Even though it's dark, I can hear voices outside. I peep out. In the darkness, Clara is conversing with someone. She claims, "She's not good enough for him." "We must eliminate her."
My heart stops. Who is she referring to? Me? My feet won't move, even though I want to sprint to Ethan. I feel chilly when the moon disappears behind a cloud.
