HE REJECTED ME FOR MY YOUNGER SISTER

I was Luna of Crescent Ash. The perfect mate. The devoted mother. The woman who endured in silence.

For years, I bent until I broke—watching my husband, Alpha Callan, erase me one cruel decision at a time. First, my voice. Then, my place. Then, my son. And when did he replace me with my sister? I thought that would be the final blow.

But I didn’t die. I ran.

I crossed the borders stripped of title, home, and worth, not knowing who I was without them. Until I found something I never expected—wolves like me. Lunas discarded. Women who once howled and were told to be quiet. And slowly, I remembered who I was before the cage.

Now I have a new pack. One built from scars, not politics. And together, we’re planning the one thing Callan never expected.

Not revenge but freedom.

But then Alpha Callan sent a letter.

“Selene, your son Elias has returned early and is looking for you. He’s asking questions. You’ve made a grave mistake if you turn your back on me. Choose. Come back. Or I will come for you.”

So now I ask myself, do I need to run again?

Or do I burn everything down?
