The Rebuffed Luna Chapter 1 Amelia's POV

I was at the backyard looking at the stars. It was midnight and I couldn't sleep. Tomorrow is my eighteen birthday and I was so excited. By tomorrow I will know who my mate is and we will do the mating ritual.

Although, I already know who my mate is, I am sure it is the Crane. We have been friends for a long time and we fell in love. It was a dream come true. I have had a crush on Crane since I was 12 but I never had the courage to tell him about it.

It was just recently he told me about his love for me and we started courting. I am an orphan so there were no parents to stop us and his parents didn't mind. We were the talk of the whole pack.

Crane was the brother of the alpha and were considered as royalty. I will be treated as a luna. It didn't really matter to me if I was the luna or not, all that mattered was that Crane loves me and I love him deeply.

I am certain he is my mate. I went to bed with his picture in my arms. I just knew that tomorrow will be a good day; or so I thought.

I woke up quite happy in the morning, knowing it was finally my birthday.

Being an orphan and probably pack less, my birthday will not be celebrated by anyone. That has been my shame all my life. I didn't know who my parents are or if they were alive or dead. That is why all the she-wolves bullied me and did awful things to me.

But Crane always came to my rescue. We always had this bound, I couldn't explain it. I didn't know if it was the mate bound or not but we were clearly drawn to each other. I didn't know how they mating thing work but I will know today.

"Amelia, get down here and clean!!" I heard from downstairs. Since I was pack less, I has to work for the Alpha's family. They found me so I work for them. I went down stairs ready to clean and do any chore necessary. From what I read from books, at midnight of your 18th birthday, when you stand under the moon, the moon goddess will tell you who your mate is. I just couldn't wait for midnight.

The day didn't really fly like I expected. I worked like I had to and waited till midnight. When midnight came, I went out to the woods like every other newly turned 18-year-old. I was so nervous. What if it is not Crane? What will I do? If it is not Crane, he will surely reject and I will never be able to transform. Different pack comes with different traditions. For this pack, you will not be able to transform as a she-wolf without a mate.

It got to my turn and I stepped forward, under the moon light. I could hear them whispering and chuckling; mostly laughing at me because I will be foolish to look for a mate. "a maid of the crescent moon pack wants to find a mate? Hilarious!

I stepped under the moon light and I saw the bound tied to someone. The beta stepped forward and thankfully, it was Crane. I smiled. I was so happy. I was worried that I will be paired with someone who will not want me but thankfully it was my first love.

"I, Amelia is chosen by the moon goddess to by beta Crane's mate." I said with an eager voice. Finally, everything will be okay. I will no longer be treated like dirt and I will be protected by my love, I thought. but everything took an unexpected turn.

"I Crane Crescent, reject you as my mate." Crane said looking me in the eye. The bound immediately broke.

I was speechless and confused. I didn't know what to do. I couldn't hear anything but those eight words. He looked at me. He didn't move. I didn't know if it was pity or concern in his eyes.

I saw him leave. I didn't know if I should chase after him. I tried stopping him but I couldn't move. When I finally got myself, I saw them laughing at me. I covered my eyes.

I didn't want to hear it. I was use to their laughter but this one was different. It was like they were telling me I made a fool of myself, like why will I think the alpha's brother will accept me.

I ran as fast as I could away from the ground.

My bank account showed exactly $42.18, and my student loan notifications were flashing red. I lived in a sweltering Queens apartment with my Aunt Lydia, where the air was thick with the smell of stale frying oil and the constant threat of being homeless. Lydia handed me a grainy photo of a man twice my age and told me she had already "sold" me to him. He was a dry cleaner looking for a wife, and in exchange for my hand, he would pay off her credit cards and my debt. If I didn't show up for the date that night, my boxes would be on the curb by midnight. I arrived at the cafe in a state of panic, my selective mutism making it impossible to even breathe. In the crowded room, I accidentally sat at the wrong table. Instead of the man from the photo, I found myself facing Gerhard Holcomb—the cold, terrifyingly handsome billionaire whose family owned the very museum where I worked. He didn't send me away; instead, he studied my trembling hands and offered me a different deal: a two-year contract marriage, a two-million-dollar payout, and a strict clause forbidding any children. I signed the papers and moved into his Park Avenue penthouse, thinking I was finally safe. But when I went back to the old apartment to retrieve the only memento of my dead parents, Lydia lashed out, leaving me bleeding from a head wound. Gerhard’s retaliation was absolute—he had her arrested and her building foreclosed on within hours, claiming he was simply "protecting his assets." As I recovered in his silent, glass-walled home, I saw a call from a famous socialite flash on his phone, and a cold truth settled in my gut. I wasn't just a wife; I was a placeholder, a silent shield used to fend off the women from his past. I looked at the massive pink diamond on my finger and realized the silence I had lived in my whole life was about to become my most expensive prison. I had traded a life of poverty for a high-stakes game of shadows, and now I had to survive the man who claimed to own me.

I married Clive Harrington, the coldest billionaire in Manhattan, under a strict contract that forbade any emotional burdens. When I needed a high-risk surgery to save my sight, I checked into the clinic alone, hiding the procedure from a husband who saw me as nothing more than a legal asset. I thought I could handle the darkness in silence. But while I was blind and bandaged in my hospital bed, my biological mother called, screaming that if I didn't produce a Harrington heir by the end of the fiscal year, she would cut off the life-saving treatments for my disabled sister. I was crawling on the cold hospital floor, desperately feeling for a cane I had dropped, when I touched a pair of expensive leather shoes. It was Clive. He was supposed to be in London closing a multi-million dollar deal, but there he was, watching his "contract wife" groveling in the dark like a beggar. He didn't walk away in disgust. He carried me to a five-thousand-dollar-a-night VIP suite and sat by my bed, listening in chilling silence as another voicemail from my mother filled the room, calling me a "useless broodmare" who was only worth the trust fund disbursements my marriage secured. I expected him to remind me of Clause 34B or hand me divorce papers now that I was "damaged goods." Instead, I felt his thumb brush a stray tear from my cheek, his presence shifting from a statue of ice into a predatory shield. "I thought I was just currency to you," I whispered, my voice trembling behind the gauze. "Just an investment." Clive didn't answer with words. He picked up his phone and called his head of legal with a single, terrifying command: "Kill the Douglas family’s credit lines. Every debt, every lien—trigger them all. If they want a war, I’ll give them a massacre." As he leaned down to kiss my bandaged forehead, I realized the contract was dead. My husband wasn't protecting an asset anymore; he was hunting the people who had dared to touch what belonged to him.
