After ten years of devotion to my mate, Alpha Locke, today was supposed to be my coronation as Luna of the Silver Moon pack. A celebration of my unwavering loyalty. But just before the ceremony, I overheard him talking to his Beta. He called me a "barren field" and sneered that he was replacing me with his pregnant mistress, Debbie. He even made a bet that I would come crawling back within three days. In front of the entire pack, he announced Debbie as the new Luna, holding up a fake doctor's note as proof of my failure. When I tried to walk away, I was accused of attacking her. Locke's Alpha Command slammed into me, forcing me to my knees. "She has attacked your future Luna," he declared, his eyes filled with contempt. His final order was for the whips. Laced with silver, they tore my back open before his warriors threw me out like trash, leaving me to die in the forest. I blacked out from the pain and poison, only to wake up a prisoner once more. Staring down at me was the terrifying Alpha of our rival pack, Ron Moss. He looked at my tattered clothes and bleeding wounds, and his voice was a cold, questioning murmur as he repeated the words that had haunted me for years. "A useless she-wolf?"

After ten years of devotion to my mate, Alpha Locke, today was supposed to be my coronation as Luna of the Silver Moon pack. A celebration of my unwavering loyalty.

But just before the ceremony, I overheard him talking to his Beta. He called me a "barren field" and sneered that he was replacing me with his pregnant mistress, Debbie. He even made a bet that I would come crawling back within three days.

In front of the entire pack, he announced Debbie as the new Luna, holding up a fake doctor's note as proof of my failure. When I tried to walk away, I was accused of attacking her.

Locke's Alpha Command slammed into me, forcing me to my knees. "She has attacked your future Luna," he declared, his eyes filled with contempt.

His final order was for the whips. Laced with silver, they tore my back open before his warriors threw me out like trash, leaving me to die in the forest.

I blacked out from the pain and poison, only to wake up a prisoner once more. Staring down at me was the terrifying Alpha of our rival pack, Ron Moss. He looked at my tattered clothes and bleeding wounds, and his voice was a cold, questioning murmur as he repeated the words that had haunted me for years.

"A useless she-wolf?"

Chapter 1

Julie POV:

The first time I met Ron Moss, I was his prisoner. The memory is a blur of pain and fear, a sharp contrast to the cold, clear voice that echoed in my head.

It was a Mind-Link, a private channel between werewolves, but this one felt forced, invasive. Ron's voice, a low rumble like distant thunder, was speaking to my mate. To Locke.

"I have her, Fowler. Your little Luna-to-be."

I was tied to a tree, my body aching, but it was Locke's reply that truly broke me. He was with his new lover, watching the sunrise, and his thoughts were a wave of disgust directed at me.

"Keep her," Locke's voice sliced through the link, devoid of any warmth. "Teach her a lesson. She's a useless she-wolf anyway."

That was a flashback. A nightmare.

Now, today, ten years after I first pledged myself to him, was supposed to be my coronation. The day I officially became Luna of the Silver Moon pack. Everyone said it was just a formality. A celebration of a decade of devotion.

I was wrong.

I'd been heading to the Alpha's private study to find Locke, a nervous flutter in my stomach. The door was slightly ajar, and I heard his voice, not through the Mind-Link, but his real, spoken voice, laced with a cruelty I had forced myself to ignore for years.

He was talking to his Beta, Marcus.

"She actually thinks today is about her," Locke sneered, and the sound was like ice water pouring over my soul. "It's pathetic."

"What are you going to do, Alpha?" Marcus asked.

"What I should have done years ago. Announce a Luna who can actually give this pack an heir. Debbie is fertile. Julie is just a barren field." Locke chuckled, a low, ugly sound. "I'll give her three days. Three days before she comes crawling back, begging for any scrap I'm willing to throw her. You want to bet on it?"

My heart didn't just break. It turned to dust.

I didn't bother putting on the ceremonial white gown. I walked to the grand clearing where the ceremony was being held in my simple jeans and a thin sweater. Every pack member was there, their faces expectant.

Locke saw me, and his face twisted into a mask of fury. His Alpha's Command, a force that compels lesser wolves to obey, slammed into me.

"What is the meaning of this, Julie? Why are you trying to embarrass me?"

His voice was a low growl, and I felt the power behind it trying to buckle my knees, to make me apologize. But the pain in my chest was stronger than his command. I stood my ground.

He saw the defiance in my eyes and his expression hardened. He decided to play his hand.

"My pack," he boomed, his voice echoing through the silent crowd. "For ten years, we have waited for an heir. For a sign of the Moon Goddess's blessing. It has become clear that the Goddess has a different path for us."

He gestured to the side, and a young Omega, Debbie Tucker, stepped forward. She was glowing, her hand placed protectively on her slightly rounded stomach.

"The Moon Goddess has blessed me with a fertile mate! Debbie will be your new Luna, and she carries the future of this pack!" He held up a piece of paper-a doctor's note, a cheap forgery. The crowd gasped, then slowly, a few sycophants began to clap.

I didn't cry. I didn't scream. I felt nothing but a cold, hollow emptiness.

I turned my back on him, on the pack that was now whispering and pointing at me, and I walked away.

"Three days, Julie!" Locke's taunt followed me. "I'll be waiting for you to come crawling back!"

At the edge of the clearing, Debbie stepped in front of me, blocking my path. She smiled, a smug, triumphant look on her face, and stroked her belly. "He's mine now. The title is mine. The future is mine."

A flicker of rage, hot and raw, finally broke through the numbness. I shoved her aside, not hard, just enough to get past.

"She attacked our Luna!" someone screamed.

Locke was beside me in an instant, his grip like iron on my arm. He saw it as an attack on his future heir.

His Alpha's Command crashed down on me, absolute and brutal. "Kneel!"

My body betrayed me. My legs buckled, and I fell to the dirt, the humiliation burning hotter than any physical pain. Locke looked down at me, his eyes filled with contempt.

"She has attacked your future Luna and my unborn child. She will be punished." He nodded to his warriors. "The whips. Laced with silver."

That night, after the lashes tore open my back, they threw me out. Cast out and broken, I stumbled through the ancient forest that bordered our land. The diluted silver in my wounds was a slow-acting poison, making my vision swim and my legs tremble.

I collapsed in a heap of leaves and blacked out.

When I woke, it was to the chilling echo of a memory. I was tied to a tree, this time on the edge of a cliff. A tall, imposing figure stood before me, his silhouette dark against the pale moonlight.

It was the Alpha of the rival Black Forest pack. Ron Moss.

His voice was as cold and sharp as I remembered from that first nightmare. He looked me over, his gaze lingering on my tattered clothes and bleeding wounds, and then he repeated the words that had haunted me for years. The words Locke had said.

He tilted his head, his voice a low, questioning murmur. "A useless she-wolf?"

The "Brewery of the Year" award felt like a cold stone in my hand, heavy with the unspoken weight of my wife, Jenny's, silence. She was the General Manager, the face on stage, thanking everyone but me, the head brewer, the one who actually crafted the award-winning beer. I was used to being invisible, just "Ethan Clark, the technician," a replaceable employee in her eyes, despite being the silent 65% owner of the brewery I started with my college roommate. At the party, a sales rep asked when Jenny and I would start a "brewing dynasty," and she laughed a sharp, dismissive laugh. "I'm not putting my career on hold to have a baby for any man. It's not worth it." Her words hung in the air, a public declaration that numbed me. Back home, I found a package from a fertility clinic addressed to her. My heart pounded as I opened it. Inside, a detailed IVF statement confirmed she was one month pregnant. Then, my blood ran cold: the donor was listed as "Wesley Todd." Wes, her "gay best friend," the man with the pitying, contemptuous gaze. The pieces slammed into place. She stormed in an hour later with Wes, scoffing at my divorce demand. "It's not about the joke, Jenny," I said, voice flat. She brazenly explained her twisted plan: "Wes's family is very conservative... I agreed to be a surrogate for him. We did IVF. We're going to have a modern family together." The audacity, the gaslighting, the sheer arrogance of their betrayal left me with a wave of pure disgust. "The divorce is final," I told them. "And I'm selling the house. You have twenty-four hours." The next morning, they tried to fire me from my own brewery, strutting in with fake authority. That' s when my CEO, Matthew, finally revealed the truth to a stunned Jenny: "He was never just an employee, Jenny. He's the boss. He's always been the boss." Why did she, the woman who claimed "visionary leadership," never bother to check who truly owned the company she flaunted? And what dark secrets about her and Wes were about to spill out?

I was finally brought back to the billionaire Vance estate after years in the grimy foster system, but the luxury Lincoln felt more like a funeral procession. My biological family didn't welcome me with open arms; they looked at me like a stain on a silk shirt. They thought I was a "defective" mute with cognitive delays, a spare part to be traded away. Within hours of my arrival, my father decided to sell me to Julian Thorne, a bitter, paralyzed heir, just to secure a corporate merger. My sister Tiffany treated me like trash, whispering for me to "go back to the gutter" before pouring red wine over my dress in front of Manhattan's elite. When a drunk cousin tried to lay hands on me at the engagement gala, my grandmother didn't protect me-she raised her silver-topped cane to strike my face for "embarrassing the family." They called me a sacrificial lamb, laughing as they signed the prenuptial agreement that stripped me of my freedom. They had no idea I was E-11, the underground hacker-artist the world was obsessed with, or that I had already breached their private servers. I found the hidden medical records-blood types A, A, and B-a biological impossibility that proved my "parents" were harboring a scandal that could ruin them. Why bring me back just to discard me again? And why was Julian Thorne, the man supposedly bound to a wheelchair, secretly running miles at dawn on his private estate? Standing in the middle of the ballroom, I didn't plead for mercy. I used a text-to-speech app to broadcast a cold, synthetic threat: "I have the records, Richard. Do you want me to explain genetics to the press, or should we leave quietly?" With the "paralyzed" billionaire as my unexpected accomplice, I walked out of the Vance house and into a much more dangerous game.
