Introduction
I'm Natalia from Moon Stone pack. My dad's the alpha, I've got alpha blood, but I can't shift. So everyone treats me like garbage. My mom died young, dad remarried this beta luna who had Stella, my half-sister who's just a beta but gets treated better than me.
In my past life, at the mating ceremony, Damon picked me. I thought I'd won. Turns out the bastard was actually an omega using black magic to fake being beta. When we mated, we had an omega pup instead of an alpha heir.
What does this piece of shit do? Blames ME. Says I faked my alpha bloodline. Then he kills me and my baby and dumps our bodies with the rogues.
But I'm back. It's the mating ceremony again, except this time Damon's going after Stella instead of me. Which makes me think, did that asshole get reborn too?
Chapter 1
Natalia's POV
The ceremonial hall blazed with hundreds of candles. I stood at the center of it all, surrounded by the hushed whispers and expectant faces of our people, trying to steady my racing heart.
My memories came flooding back, the pain, the betrayal, dirt hitting my face as they buried me alive. But I was here now, alive, eighteen again, wearing the same damn ceremonial dress.
My father, Alpha Marcus, stood by the ancient moon altar, looking all important and commanding. His graying hair caught the candlelight as he raised his arms to get everyone's attention.
"Tonight, we celebrate not just my daughter's coming of age, but the future of our pack," his voice boomed across the hall. Every person hung on his words. "Natalia possesses the purest Alpha bloodline, and I have chosen the perfect mate to stand beside her."
No, no, no. My stomach twisted into knots. I knew what was coming next. The same words that had sealed my fate in my previous life.
"Damon of the Silver Crest pack," Father continued, gesturing toward the young man standing near the front of the crowd. "You are the strongest Beta of your generation. Your union with Natalia will bring forth the next great Alpha."
The crowd erupted in approving murmurs. I could see the satisfied smiles on faces throughout the hall, they all believed this was perfect, inevitable. The alliance between two powerful packs, the promise of strong offspring, the continuation of pure bloodlines.
But I knew better.
I watched Damon walk forward, cutting through the crowd like he owned the place. His hair was perfect, his clothes were perfect. To everyone else, he looked like the perfect guy.
"Alpha Marcus," Damon's voice rang out clear and strong. My breath caught in my throat. Here it comes. "I am honored by your offer, but I must respectfully decline."
The hall fell silent. Not a single whisper, not even the sound of breathing. It was as if time itself had frozen.
"I request permission to court your second daughter instead." His eyes found Stella in the crowd, and I watched my sister's face transform from confusion to stunned delight. "I choose Stella."
"What?" Father's voice cracked like thunder. "Explain yourself."
Damon straightened his shoulders, looking every inch the righteous warrior. "Natalia cannot shift, Alpha Marcus. She has no wolf form. How can someone without a wolf claim Alpha blood? She might not even be your true daughter."
The shocking voices were everywhere. People gasping, others looking at me like I was garbage, some already whispering about my bloodline being fake.
What fuck!! How could he say something like that at a time like this? Could he have been reborn too? In my previous life, during our brief, miserable marriage, I'd confided my deepest secret to him in a moment of vulnerability. I'd told him about my inability to shift, believing that my mate would understand and protect me.
Instead, he'd used it to destroy me.
"Is this true?" Father's voice was dangerously now. The temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees. "Natalia, can you shift?"
Every face in the crowd was turned toward me. Some looked curious, others skeptical, a few already showing disgust. I could see the wheels turning in their minds, defective, wolfless, fake Alpha.
Just like before.
My throat felt like sandpaper. "I..." God, how do you tell a room full of werewolves that you're broken?
"Answer me," Father commanded, his Alpha authority pressing down on me.
"I can't." The words came out as barely a whisper, but in the deadly silence of the hall, everyone heard them. "I can't shift."
The crowd exploded. Shocked voices everywhere, people muttering about how disgusting I was, whispering about whether I was even Dad's real daughter. I just stood there in the middle of it all, watching everything fall apart just like before.
The crowd gradually dispersed, leaving hushed conversations and sideways glances in their wake. Stella had been whisked away by excited pack members, already being congratulated on her unexpected good fortune. The ceremonial hall felt cavernous now, with just Father and me.
The candles had burned lower, their flames flickering weakly.
"Eighteen years," Father said finally, his voice heavy with something between disappointment and disgust. "Eighteen years I've raised you, trained you, prepared you to lead this pack. And you're nothing but a wolfless."
I lifted my chin, meeting his gaze directly. In my previous life, I would have cowered, begged for forgiveness, promised to find a way to fix myself. But I knew now how this story ended. I knew what he was capable of when I failed to meet his impossible expectations.
"Father," I said, "I want to go to Sacred Grove."
His eyebrows shot up. "What?"
"I request permission to undertake the ancient ritual," I continued, the plan crystallizing in my mind as I spoke. "To prove my worth to the pack and seek the moon goddess's blessing."
Sacred Grove, the mystical forest at the edge of our territory where pack members went to commune with the moon goddess in times of crisis. It was dangerous, isolated, and perfect for what I had in mind. In my previous life, I'd been too scared, too desperate for his approval to leave. This time would be different.
Father studied me for a long moment. I could practically see him calculating the benefits, getting his embarrassing daughter out of sight, avoiding the awkward questions about my parentage, maintaining face by framing it as a spiritual journey rather than exile.
"Very well," he said finally. "Perhaps some time in Sacred Grove will help you... find yourself."
I bowed formally. "Thank you, father. I'll prepare to leave at first light."
This time I'm gonna get rid of all the shit Damon put me through.

Rejected By My Family, Desired By The Mafia
While the real heiress struggled to survive, the nanny’s daughter, Talia, was raised in luxury as the beloved jewel of the Laurent family, pampered by Camille’s parents, adored by her three brothers, and even promised to the prestigious Matteo Devereux through a childhood engagement arranged by their grandparents.
Then the truth came out.
Six months ago, Camille was finally brought back to the Laurent family. To protect the family reputation and prove their devotion to their bloodline, the Laurent patriarch transferred 35% of his personal shares into Camille’s name overnight, instantly making her one of the wealthiest heiresses in the country.
It brought anxiety to all the Laurent family. But what they don’t know…is that Camille never needed them.
Behind her elegant smile lies a woman filled with secrets powerful enough to shake the whole family. She's a miraculous healer capable of curing the incurable poisons.
Yet despite everything, her family still chooses Talia.
Every accusation against Talia is forgiven. Every scheme against Camille is brushed aside. Even Matteo, the man who was supposed to be Camille’s fiancé—cannot let go of the woman he always believed belonged by his side.
But while the Laurent family underestimates Camille, another man begins to see exactly who she is.
Dante Moretti.
The ruthless heir of an old-money dynasty. A billionaire CEO worshipped by the public…and the merciless king of a criminal empire hidden beneath the city’s glittering surface. When Dante is poisoned by a rival syndicate with a deadly toxin no doctor can cure, he offers a fortune for anyone who can save him.
Only Camille can. Their deal is simple: she becomes his personal physician, and he gives her anything she wants.
My Alpha's Fake Luna
Those were the last words my Alpha whispered before he severed our bond.
I believed our marriage was over.
I was wrong.
For two years, I thought Alpha Michael never loved me.
Every misunderstanding pushed us farther apart.
Every silence broke another piece of my heart.
While another woman slowly took my place.
But everything changed after the death of the Grand Alpha.
My mate began watching me.
Protecting me.
Holding me whenever I fell.
Looking at me like he was terrified of losing me.
If he hated me...
Why did he keep risking everything for me?
And why did everyone panic the moment I finally chose another future?
GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
Accardi
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display.
