Introduction

"Don't go near your father! He will kill you!" My mother yelled in my head.

Wesley slammed on the brakes. "What's wrong Sydney?"

"Take me home Wesley......I can't go near him. He knows now!"

"Knows what?"

"That I'm in love with a werewolf!"


My name is Sydney, our world changed when werewolves made themselves known. No one knows why they decided to come out. Some people hate and fear them, like my dad. I live in an apartment with two of the best roommates. Alice, a human, and Rich, a rogue werewolf. Everything was going great, but then one day we went out to the werewolf bar The Den. My world got turned upside down when he came into my life....

Chapter 1

Sydney POV

Flashback

My parents and I are sitting are the dinner table. It was our last dinner together. We all seemed so happy.

"Where are you planning on living for school?"

"Theres an apartment near school that I have been looking at. I'm pretty excited about it"

That was the last conversation I had with my Mother.

My mother left to go to the grocery store to make a cake for dessert. She was gone longer than we were expecting.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Father went to answer the door, it was a uniformed cop.

"Sir, I need you to come to the station with me."

"What? Why?"

"There was an accident and we need you to confirm that this car belonged to you."

My father left and went with the cop.

Fast Forward 5 years.

"I want you to move back home with me, Sydney. I need you to be safe here with me."

"Daddy, I can't I am in a contract for.....for 5 years so I can't break it. I know your lonely but I will visit as much as I can." I stumbled through the sentence.

"I will give you 5 years, after that you are coming home no excuses!"

"Yes, Father"

End Flashback

Three years later, it was like another morning. Except it was my birthday I just turned 22. I share a little apartment with 2 great people. Alice and Rich. We all work and go to school at the local Junior College. Nothing too exciting in our life. 

I woke up this morning knowing I had to work but at least we had the night off to celebrate. I work at a little Cafe on the edge of town. 

"Hey Alice, i'll see you guys after work! Can't wait to celebrate."

Oh and we will celebrate like never before," Alice chuckled. 

I headed out. And started my shift. Praying it would go by quick.

I was a waitress so we would get all different types in the cafe. Humans and werewolves. The werewolves you could tell were a lot bigger and their eyes were so nice with the changing colors. I didn't mind helping them unlike some other people so I normally handled their tables.

A new werewolf came in by himself nothing different about him except his eyes were so blue they were hypnotizing. Another waitress guided him to my area.

I don't know why but I was nervous to help him. I walked over to him. 

"Hi, I'm Sydney I'll be your waitress." He didn't even look up but he seemed to be smelling something in the air.

All of a sudden a fight broke out. Humans were telling werewolves to get out. This happened from time to time. I excused myself from his table. I went and stepped into the fight.

I faced the human "You can leave now. They are enjoying their meal and if you don't want to be near them then you can leave." They argued a bit as they always did then finally left.

I turned back to the werewolf but he was gone. I couldn't stop thinking about him but he was gone. 

I finally took my break and went outside to my car. I made it outside and there He was lying against my car staring at me with those BLUE eyes!

Who are you human?

Oh my god....he spoke and it was so nice to hear.

"What do you mean?" I replied. 

This is when he got right next to me pinning me against my car.

"You crave a werewolves touch. You are trouble.....but i'll see you again, love."

Just like that he was gone.

I finished my shift and quickly made it home to start our night out. This is what I was looking forward to.

Alice was getting ready and so was I. Rich hadn't gotten home yet but he's a guy so he doesn't take long.

"I'm home girls.....are you guys almost ready." Said Rich

"Almost just give us an hour," I replied.

"Gives me just enough time then to shower and get ready," said Rich.

"Where do you guys want to go?" I asked.

Alice said "Why not that werewolf place ...... The Den."

"Yeah that would be good. Especially for Rich can get one of his own kind." I said.

Rich just shook his head and we all heading down to wait for the uber driver. Before I knew it we were at the bar. Never been to this place before but it seemed like any other bar except they stare at you when you first walk in.

"Come on girls.....let's get our drink on," said Rich casually. 

We walked over to a table and sat down. We ordered our drinks and then I told them about the hot werewolf at work. Before I knew it we had a couple drinks in us and Alice was dragging me out to dance.

It wasn't long before she had the attention of some werewolf and was going her separate way. Looked over and Rich was leaving with a girl.

I didn't care I was just dancing away....really dang enough to just want to dance. Then all of a sudden I felt someone dancing beside me. He whispered "I told you, you were trouble." I turned around to see him, it was him!

"What are you doing here?" playing it casually. 

"I told you I would see you again!"

Just then the waitress brought over my drink. I grabbed it and went to drink it.

"I think you've had enough......let's go!"

"Where are we going?" I replied.

"I'm taking you home."

"No, im good....my friends...." just then I realized my friends already left and I was alone. 

"They left! So come on let's go."

"No, i'll find my way home when i'm ready." Just then he threw me over his shoulders....."i'm not leaving you alone here"

He took me out of the bar and to his car....a black suv. He sat me down against his car. He looked deep into my eyes....they were sparkling now. "Get inside."

I got in and he started driving. "So where do you live?" He asked. 

"I told you i'm not ready to go home yet!"

"Fine"

He drove for awhile going more towards the edge of town. We sat in silence for awhile while I looked out the window. Never realized how close to the woods we were.

"So what's your name?" He asked

"I'm Sydney. What's yours?"

"It's Wesley." Silence again until we finally arrived.

They were already married for three years when Alpha Damian Zeus’s long-lost first love, Lily, returned bringing along a five-year-old pup.

Luna Ariana Volkstane slid the formal rejection request across the table. "Let's end this bond. It's better for you, me, and your first love."

He just smirked. "You want me to reject you? You think you can break our bond that easily?"

So she did. Ariana cut ties with him completely, poured herself into her career, and rose to global fame as a legendary healer, her knowledge of rare herbs, wolf anatomy, and ancient magic sought after across continents.

The powerful suitors lined up. The Alpha of an overseas empire whispered, "Ariana, hurry up and perform the severing ritual. I can't wait to claim you." A powerful pack leader vowed, "I'll be there with you the day you break the bond." A legendary wolf attorney promised, "I'll handle your rejection case with the pack council myself."

Ariana just rubbed her temples. It's not that she didn't want the split, she wanted it more than anything, it's just that the Alpha she was mated to refused to let go.

Finally, she announced, "Whoever can officially get me rejected, I'll put you at the head table of my bond-breaking celebration."

Not long after, Alpha Damian was served the official rejection request right in the middle of an emergency pack council meeting. That same afternoon, he was attacked by rogues at the gates of his own territory.

When Ariana showed up at the pack infirmary with healing herbs, she repeated calmly, "Let's sever the mate bond. It's better for you, me, and everyone else."

But the cold, untouchable Alpha pulled her into his arms, his eyes blood-red with fury. "You want me to reject you? Over my dead body."

I caught him.

The man I was meant to marry—the rising Alpha, the pride of the Pack—thrusting into another girl like I didn't exist.

But I didn't cry. I didn't scream. I didn't even flinch.

Because the pain had carved me hollow long before he ever touched her.

He thinks I'm weak. That I'll stand by his side in two days, smile for the ceremony, and hand him my loyalty with the Alpha title.

But he's wrong.

I'm not the broken little Luna they think I am. I'm the storm they never saw coming.

The Pack worships him, but only I know the truth buried beneath his perfect lies. So I'll take everything he wants most—the throne, the title, the crown he was born to wear—and win it out from under him, in front of everyone who ever called me unworthy.

Screw the Pack. Screw the respect. Screw being tame.

I'm fury dressed in skin, madness wearing heels, and heartbreak turned into a goddamn weapon.

They wanted a loyal Luna??

Instead...

They created a monster.

And when the throne is finally mine...

The Pack won't remember the name of the Alpha who betrayed me.

They'll remember the woman who took his crown...

and became the First Female Alpha.
