Heartbreak is nothing new to Luna Skyheart. She has determined never to trust fate again after five failed mate bonds. Her resolve is put to the test, though, as her sixth bond ties her to the mysterious and formidable Lycan King, King Rex Reign. Luna must choose between rejecting the mate bond once more or risking all for a love that could rescue them all as adversaries emerge, envious rivals plot her ruin, and a prophecy speaks of disaster.

The Sixth Bond Chapter 1 Marked by the Sixth Bond

The expansive courtyard of the Lycan Council Summit was illuminated by the silvery light of the moon, which was high in the midnight sky. Tension and the smell of restless wolves filled the electrified air. With her heart thumping like a battle drum, Luna Skyheart stood at the edge of the crowd, shrouded in darkness. Her only defence was neutrality, even if she hadn't wanted to attend. Rumours would spread if she turned down the council's invitation. She would be viewed as weak, or worse, as an adversary.

Five ties between mates. Five betrayals. She discovered the hard way that the promises made by fate were nothing more than cruel jokes.

Grasping the edge of her black cloak, she said to herself, "Keep your distance." Her sharp silver eyes looked around the party. Tonight, the most potent Lycans in the realm had gathered, their auras oppressive. Peace treaties were purportedly the Council's topic of discussion, but Luna had other ideas. Power struggles and secret ambitions simmered beneath the surface like a storm.

He was at the heart of it all.

King Rex Reign.

The glittering eyes of the Lycan King scanned the gathering like a predator assessing its prey as he stood upright. Even when he was silent, his magnetic presence demanded attention. With his broad shoulders and dark armour bearing his house's symbol, Rex was a man of might and authority. The way his aura seemed to ripple, like a wolf that was hardly leashed, was what Luna found most striking, though.

Luna had not experienced this feeling in years, yet she felt an odd tug deep in her chest. She shrugged it off fast. It wasn't authentic. It isn't possible.

Behind her, a sneering voice said, "Luna Skyheart."

She turned abruptly and saw her old rival, Selene Nightshade. Wearing a red gown that exuded self-assurance, Selene grinned, her emerald eyes shining with ill intent. "I'm stunned that you had the courage to reveal your face here." Luna whispered,

"Not now, Selene," in a chilly tone.

"Are we scared?" With anger in her words, Selene took a step closer. "You ought not to have shown up. The broken are not welcome here.

Luna's fists tensed, but the air was broken by a thunderous roar before she could react. The audience froze.

A number of creatures appeared out of the forest's shadows, their motions purposeful and predatory. Even though their faces were hidden by the darkness, it was clear that they had malevolent intent.

"Assassins!" a voice cried.

There was anarchy. The courtyard was filled with howls and snarls as lycans transformed into wolves. With their guns shining in the moonlight, the assassins struck quickly. The Lycan King was the direct target of a well-planned attack rather than a haphazard one.

Rex grabbed a huge broadsword from his back and held his stance, his golden eyes narrowing. Over the commotion, his voice roared. "Keep the council safe! Don't allow them to disperse!

Despite her senses telling her to run, Luna's feet would not budge. She saw Rex fight with a fierceness that was both amazing and terrible. He was a tornado of steel and claws, precisely dispatching foes.

Then she noticed it, though.

With an unnaturally fast pace and a blade pointed directly at Rex's exposed back, a shadowy figure slid through the confusion.

Luna didn't think. She moved.

Her body responded instinctively, and she felt a rush of strength that had not been present in years. She launched herself into the battle and caught the assassin as the blade was about to fall. The knife grazed her side, causing pain to burst, but she continued. As she called forth an unexplainable force, her silver eyes sparkled.

A shockwave exploded from her body, sending the assassin flying into a stone pillar as the air around her crackled. The audience turned to look at her, and silence descended.

Rex's golden eyes widened in surprise as his sight met hers. Then his face changed, and his eyes flashed with something primordial.

Like a steel trap, the bond slammed into position.

Luna staggered back, whispering, "No."

The mark of the mate bond blazed like fire into her flesh, burning into her chest.

"Stop!" Rex yelled and moved in her direction.

However, Luna was unable to breathe. She was unable to think. Her lifelong struggle to break free from the link she had vowed never to embrace had returned to haunt her.

Her sixth mate was Rex Reign.

He yelled, "Luna, hold on!" But she had already started to run. Her head a whirl of bewilderment and terror, her pulse pounding, she vanished into the forest.

Rex stood motionless in the courtyard, his hand still extended. He looked down at his arm's flaming mark, which was the same as the one that was currently burning on Luna's.

He said, "She's my mate," with a tone of astonishment and resolve. Then he turned to his guards, his jaw clenched.

"Seek her out," he ordered. "Return her to me."

However, Rex knew in his heart that it wouldn't be that easy. He had never had a bond like this, and Luna Skyheart was no ordinary woman.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

Hayley was betrayed by those who should have loved her most. To save their precious adopted daughter from a punishment she deserved, her own parents sent Hayley straight into a living hell—an infamous prison where survival demanded cruelty, and weakness meant death. Four years later, the girl who had entered those iron gates no longer existed. She emerged with a single, unbreakable rule carved into her soul: Every betrayal would be repaid tenfold. The day she walked free, the world trembled. A convoy of luxury cars lined the road. A legion of loyal followers awaited her triumphant return. Her father tried to buy her silence with money. But money had long lost its power over her. Her adopted sister hid behind sweet words and false kindness. But empty smiles no longer fooled her. Everything that had once been stolen would be reclaimed—piece by piece. When her parents attempted to tie themselves to the city's most feared man by offering their adopted daughter, Hayley's lips curved into a cold smirk. "Not on my watch." Backed by a legendary hacker, shadowy allies, and an entire prison willing to burn the world for her, Hayley dismantled her enemies with terrifying precision. Then the tyrant noticed her. "You're interesting," he said. "Be my woman, and the city is yours." Hayley raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "You want to own me? Survive me first." High society became their battlefield. Power collided with desire. Ambition clashed with obsession. In this ruthless game of dominance and temptation, only one would kneel first. The girl once abandoned in hell rose from its ashes, crowned by fire and vengeance—And in the end, even the most feared ruler in the city would bow, offering his empire to the woman who had conquered both hell… and him.

I lived as the "scarred ghost" of the Stephens penthouse, a wife kept in the shadows because my facial burns offended my billionaire husband’s aesthetic. For years, I endured Kason’s coldness and my family's abuse, a submissive puppet who believed she had nowhere else to go. The end came with a blue folder tossed onto my silk sheets. Kason’s mistress was back, and he wanted me out by sunset, offering a five-million-dollar "silence fee" to go hide my face in the countryside. The betrayal cut deep when I discovered my father had already traded my divorce for a corporate bailout. My step-sister mocked my "trashy" appearance at a high-end boutique, while the sales staff treated me like a common thief. At home, my father threatened to cut off my mother's life-saving medicine unless I crawled back to Kason to beg for a better deal. I was the girl who took the blame for a fire she didn't start, the wife who worshipped a man who never looked her in the eye, and the daughter used as a human bargaining chip. I was supposed to be broken, penniless, and desperate. But the woman who stood up wasn't the weak Elease Finch anymore; she was Phoenix, a tactical predator with a $500 million secret. I signed the divorce papers without a single tear, walked past my stunned husband, and wiped the Finch family's bank accounts clean with a few taps on my phone. "Your money is dirty," I told Kason with a cold smile. "I prefer clean hands." The cage is open, the hunt has begun, and I’m starting with the people who thought a scar made me weak.
