Chapter 1

“I’ll marry you and become your Rogue Luna.”

Alpha Emmett seemed completely taken aback that I would agree to such an absurd condition.he stood there, frozen like a statue, his jaw slack, his expression a mix of disbelief and confusion.

“You… you, you—are you serious?” he finally stammered, his eyes wide as if he’d just seen a ghost.

"Three days from now, I’ll come to marry you. No backing out."

I shrugged with a smirk. “Yes,I said it, Never take-backs.”

The poor guy practically tripped over his own feet as he scrambled down the wall, clearly terrified I might change my mind. Just as he reached the ground, he stumbled and almost faceplanted.

I laughed, the sound light and genuine. For someone with the reputation of being a rogue Alpha to the core, Emmett was unexpectedly... charming in an awkward kind of way. Not the arrogant brute the rumors painted him to be.

My amusement was cut short when a voice interrupted my thoughts, sliding into my mind through the pack link.

“Gamma,” came the calm, measured voice of my servant. “Alpha Lawrence is waiting for you in the living room.”

The laughter vanished from my face in an instant. My wolf, usually heard this will be happy or wag her tail, but now went deathly silent.

By the time I reached the living room, my smile was gone, replaced by a mask of cool detachment. Alpha Lawrence was standing there, his posture as confident as ever, but the forced smile on his lips gave him away.

“Alpha Lawrence,” I said evenly, “shouldn’t you be at home with your new Luna? What urgent business brings you here?”

His grin faltered for a split second before he forced it wider. “Audrey, you know I wouldn’t come if it wasn’t important.”

I crossed my arms, leaning against the doorframe with an arched brow. “Important enough to leave your honeymoon?”

He sighed, running a hand through his hair. “Sandra’s too soft. She’d be ruined if I let her marry that rogue. You know she wouldn’t survive in a life like that.”

I tilted my head, my tone laced with mockery. “And yet, you didn’t hesitate to ruin me and my family’s reputation. Funny how that works.”

His face fell, but he quickly recovered. “Audrey, let’s not do this. I didn’t have a choice. You know I care about you.”

“Alpha Lawrence,” I said, voice cold and steady, “our engagement is over. There’s nothing more to say.”

He took a step closer, his hand reaching out as if to placate me. “Audrey, don’t be rash. Just because I married her doesn’t mean things have to change between us.”

I stared at him, incredulous. He actually believed the garbage coming out of his mouth.

“Sandra won’t mind, She’s sweet, understanding. You just need to be patient for now. Be my girlfriend until things settle. When you have my pup, I’ll bring you back to my estate. We’ll be together—all three of us.”

"“You and Sandra are both important to me, and I swear I’ll treat you equally. Neither of you will feel neglected.”

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The audacity of this man, to ask the strongest female Gamma in the pack to be his mistress.

Even if I were willing, my family would never tolerate such humiliation.

I laughed, a sharp, humorless sound that made him flinch. “I, Audrey Gilbert, won't be anyone’s mistress.”

His smile faltered, annoyance flickering in his eyes. “Audrey, don’t make this difficult. Being my mistress isn’t as bad as you’re making it out to be. I’ll make sure no one disrespects you.Why make this so difficult for me?”

I’m making it difficult for him?

I almost laughed in disbelief. Was I the one who had disrupted someone’s wedding, dragged another woman to the registry office, and left my family in disgrace?

I looked at him mockingly and repeated, “I said, I, Audrey Gilbert, will never—never—be anyone’s mistress.”

He scowled. “You’re being unreasonable! The entire Blue Moon Pack knows you’re my mate. Do you think anyone else would want you now? You’re already ruined.”

His words were like a dagger, but I didn’t flinch. My wolf growled low in my mind, her hackles raised. If she had her way, she’d rip his throat out for daring to speak to me like that. But I wouldn’t give him the satisfaction of seeing me lose control.

I stood taller, my voice steady and unwavering. “I, Audrey Gilbert, would rather live alone for all of my life than settle for being your second choice.”

"Beta Audrey,Without me, no one else will ever want you.” "He stormed out, his word lingering like an unwelcome guest. The slam of the door echoed in the room, but I didn’t move. My hands clenched into fists and a bitter ache in my chest.

From the moment I turned 18, I had taken over my father’s Gamma position, thanks to my rare white wolf. That same day, I found my mate.

When I first saw Alpha Lawrence, my wolf howled with joy, “Mate!”

The golden boy of the Blue Moon Pack was my destined mate.

Even now, years after we graduated, we were still the star couple of the Blue Moon Pack’s No 1 Academy.

But the Alpha Lawrence who once adored me, who couldn’t bear to see me suffer even the slightest pain—that Lawrence was gone.

The man before me now was Sandra’s mate.

The moment he chose Sandra over me, ignoring my love and trampling on my heart, I should have let go.

But I couldn’t. Ten years of history between us—I couldn’t believe it would lose to their mere six months of knowing each other.

Yet, I was wrong. Completely, utterly wrong.
