The Alpha's rejection actually set her free. True love marked her as the queen of the Lycan world. She was spurned by Alpha, who never truly loved her. But that wound led her into the arms of Charlie, the most powerful Lycan King and her true soulmate. Amidst magic, royal blood, and wars between dark forces, Gwen and Charlie's love was put to the test. But nothing could stop destiny...

Chapter 1 1.

Gwendoline Moore's world collapsed that day. Not because she wasn't ready, but because she never imagined she would be this devastated.

She stood in the living room, wearing a white dress, a simple dress she had deliberately chosen to celebrate their third wedding anniversary.

Ethan didn't come with flowers or gifts that made Gwen fall in love, but instead brought painful news.

Three years of struggle, three years she spent mending Alpha Ethan Black's broken heart. Yet, in front of her, Ethan no longer saw her as his wife or even his mate.

The light of the full moon seeped through the large window, illuminating the cold living room. It was here, right in front of the fireplace that had always warmed them, that Ethan uttered the words that shattered all of Gwendoline's hopes.

"Gwendoline Moore," Ethan's voice was heavy, "I, Alpha Ethan Black, reject you as my mate and the Luna Black Pack. I sever all ties that ever existed between us."

Gwendoline's heart felt as if it had been pierced by a thousand ice daggers. Every word that came out of Ethan's mouth felt like a blow that shattered her soul.

She knew this day would come, ever since Marian, Ethan's true mate, had returned, and the two of them had been meeting often.

However, hearing those words directly, spoken so firmly on their wedding anniversary, made Gwendoline unable to breathe.

Gwendoline's eyes trembled, "Ethan... why? Is it because you want to go back to Marian?"

The question sounded stupid, but she said it anyway. She needed certainty, needed a reason more than just 'destiny.'

Ethan looked at her, his gaze no longer reflecting love, only guilt.

"It's fate, Gwen. Marian is my soulmate. We... we are not the fate decreed by the Moon Goddess."

"Not the destiny that was written?" Gwendoline's voice trembled, full of bitterness. "The three years we spent together, and now the Moon Goddess has created a new bond between us? And you say we are not destiny?" Gwen retorted bitterly.

"Your own father forced me to marry you, after you became depressed because Marian left you! "

"Maybe I am an orphan, who was asked to repay Sabian Black by becoming your wife and part of the Luna pack. I restored you from the darkness that enveloped you. I sacrificed myself for you, rebuilding you piece by piece. After everything we've been through, you just forget it?"

Ethan turned his face away. He couldn't bear to look at Gwendoline. "I'm sorry, but Marian is now pregnant with my child. Meanwhile, in the past three years, we haven't been blessed with a child," he said softly.

The man's words struck Gwen like a bolt of lightning. She never expected Ethan's betrayal to go that far.

"You betrayed me? Even before you rejected me, you were already cheating on me?" Gwen's heart was completely shattered. She felt that all her loyalty meant nothing at all.

"I'm sorry, I was unconscious, I was drunk, but I am the Alpha of the Black Pack, so I have to take responsibility, especially since it's my own flesh and blood."

Gwendoline's anger peaked. She couldn't stay here. She couldn't bear all this pain. Without saying a word, she ran, leaving the living room full of bitter memories.

She ran through the darkness of the night, her destination unclear, as long as it was far away from there. Her body transformed into Dhena, the wolf she possessed.

"Just kill that bitch, Gwen! She's a slut who's standing in your way!"

"No, Dhena! I don't want to stay and become Luna of the Alpha who never loved me, especially since he keeps bringing up the fact that I haven't been able to give him children."

Gwendoline ran into a rarely visited part of the forest, feeling the pain in her heart burning her entire body, and occasionally falling down. But she didn't care, as long as she was far away.

When she reached the riverbank, her tears fell, along with a scream, but it wasn't the voice of someone she knew. Who was it?

But her pain far exceeded the scream she heard. She didn't care, she just wanted to wash away the wounds in her heart.

As she stood by the river, she suddenly heard someone approaching, but when she turned around, the person who was approaching had already covered her mouth with a handkerchief that had a strange smell. Gwendoline struggled, but her strength was weakening. Darkness... Everything was pitch black!

***

Gwendoline woke up with a dizzy head and a body that felt very stiff. She was no longer in the forest, but in a small room with dim lighting.

She was confused and began to panic. Who had brought her here? And why?

She tried to scan the entire room with her eyes, then she tried to communicate with the wolf inside her body.

"Dhena, what happened?"

"This is bad, Gwen. I think someone trapped you. This might be related to the rejection you just experienced."

"You mean this is Ethan's doing?" She wanted to disbelieve it, but the fact was that she was currently in a small, cramped room.

Was she going to be killed? But why? Hadn't she agreed to Ethan's rejection?

Suddenly, a groan was heard from the corner of the room. Gwendoline turned her head, and her eyes widened. There, lying on the floor, was Darren, Ethan's Beta. His body was stiff, his eyes closed.

The woman immediately approached Darren. Perhaps it was because of the effects of Ethan's rejection that she, as Luna of the Black Pack, could no longer feel the Pack link.

"Darren? Darren, wake up!" Gwendoline called out in panic. But Ethan's Beta didn't move.

Gwendoline tried to get closer to him, wanting to know what had happened to Ethan's Beta. When she reached Darren's side, she saw a small bottle lying in Darren's hand.

The word "wolfsbane" was written on the bottle. Her eyes widened. Poison? Had Darren committed suicide, since the bottle was in his own hand?

Gwendoline checked Darren's pulse, but there was none. This meant that the man was dead.

Her heart was pounding. She was in a locked room, next to the body of Beta, who had died from poison. This was a trap. Who did this?

Gwendoline's mind was racing. Why her? Why Darren? Before she could think any further, the door opened. A number of Alpha soldiers entered, led by Ethan. He stepped forward, his face filled with anger.

"Gwen," Ethan's voice trembled with burning rage. "What are you doing?"

Gwendoline shook her head, "I was set up! I don't know how I got here. Someone..."

Ethan wasn't listening. His eyes were fixed on the bottle of wolfsbane in Darren's hand.

"You even had the heart to kill him," he hissed.

"No! It wasn't me!" Gwendoline insisted, tears streaming down her cheeks. "I don't know anything."

Ethan stared at her with eyes full of hatred.

"Darren was my right-hand man! And you killed him! What was going through your head! If you hated me, why did you kill my Beta?"

Gwendoline was shocked. The hatred in Ethan's eyes was so real. The man didn't even trust her anymore. And again, the man didn't believe her.

"I didn't do it, Ethan. I was framed!"

Too Late: The Spare Daughter Escapes Him

SHANA GRAY

I died on a Tuesday. It wasn't a quick death. It was slow, cold, and meticulously planned by the man who called himself my father. I was twenty years old. He needed my kidney to save my sister. The spare part for the golden child. I remember the blinding lights of the operating theater, the sterile smell of betrayal, and the phantom pain of a surgeon's scalpel carving into my flesh while my screams echoed unheard. I remember looking through the observation glass and seeing him-my father, Giovanni Vitiello, the Don of the Chicago Outfit-watching me die with the same detached expression he used when signing a death warrant. He chose her. He always chose her. And then, I woke up. Not in heaven. Not in hell. But in my own bed, a year before my scheduled execution. My body was whole, unscarred. The timeline had reset, a glitch in the cruel matrix of my existence, giving me a second chance I never asked for. This time, when my father handed me a one-way ticket to London-an exile disguised as a severance package-I didn't cry. I didn't beg. My heart, once a bleeding wound, was now a block of ice. He didn't know he was talking to a ghost. He didn't know I had already lived through his ultimate betrayal. He also didn't know that six months ago, during the city's brutal territory wars, I was the one who saved his most valuable asset. In a secret safe house, I stitched up the wounds of a blinded soldier, a man whose life hung by a thread. He never saw my face. He only knew my voice, the scent of vanilla, and the steady touch of my hands. He called me Sette. Seven. For the seven stitches I put in his shoulder. That man was Dante Moretti. The Ruthless Capo. The man my sister, Isabella, is now set to marry. She stole my story. She claimed my actions, my voice, my scent. And Dante, the man who could spot a lie from a mile away, believed the beautiful deception because he wanted it to be true. He wanted the golden girl to be his savior, not the invisible sister who was only ever good for her spare parts. So I took the ticket. In my past life, I fought them, and they silenced me on an operating table. This time, I will let them have their perfect, gilded lie. I will go to London. I will disappear. I will let Seraphina Vitiello die on that plane. But I will not be a victim. This time, I will not be the lamb led to slaughter. This time, from the shadows of my exile, I will be the one holding the match. And I will wait, with the patience of the dead, to watch their entire world burn. Because a ghost has nothing to lose, and a queen of ashes has an empire to gain.

For seventeen years, I was the pride of the Carlisle family, the perfect daughter destined to inherit an empire. But that life ended the moment a DNA report slid across my father’s mahogany desk. The paper proved I was a stranger. Vanessa, the girl sobbing in the corner, was the real biological daughter they had been searching for. "You need to leave. Tonight. Before the press gets wind of this. Before the stock prices dip." My father’s voice was as cold as flint. My mother wouldn't even look at me, staring out the window at the gardens as if I were already a ghost. Just like that, I was erased. I left behind the Birkin bags and the diamonds, throwing my Centurion Card into a crystal bowl with a clatter that echoed like a gunshot. I walked out into the cold night and climbed into a rusted Ford Taurus driven by a man I had never met—my biological father. I went from a mansion to a fourth-floor walk-up in Queens that smelled of laundry detergent and struggle. My new siblings looked at me with a mix of fear and disgust, waiting for the "fallen princess" to break. They expected me to beg for my old life back, to crumble without the luxury I’d known since birth. But they didn't know the truth. I had spent years training in a shark tank, honing survival skills they couldn't imagine. While Richard Carlisle froze my trust funds to starve me out, my net worth was climbing by millions on an encrypted trading app. They thought they were throwing me to the wolves. They didn't realize they were just letting me off my leash. As the Carlisles prepared to debut Vanessa at the Manhattan Arts Gala, I was already making my move. "Get dressed. We're going to a party."
