The Rise of the Ugly Luna

Willow celebrates a positive pregnancy test until she overhears a monstrous truth: her Alpha husband, Adrian, has never touched her. Every time she trusted him, his Beta took his place behind her blindfold, while Adrian built a lie to brand her unfaithful and crown his mistress Luna. Betrayed, pregnant, and trapped in a pack that calls her wolfless and ugly, Willow plans her escape. But under the full moon, her birthmark vanishes, a legendary white wolf awakens, and the men who used her begin hunting the woman they can no longer recognize.

I am Wren, an Omega. My Alpha mate, Kade, lost his memory after falling from a cliff. He fell in love with the nurse who saved him and completely forgot me. After being reborn, I stopped trying to awaken his memories. I watched him burn my silver wolf hunting knife, smash the moonstone wall engraved with our names, and place the wolf-fang necklace he had once carved for me around her neck. When she faked a fall into the water, he shoved me under. When the kidnappers sank us into the lake and forced him to choose one of us, he chose her to live. I sank beneath the surface, and the mate mark on the side of my neck split open. Kade, the life-saving debt from my past life and my letting go in this one are both fully repaid. Let’s never meet again.

As Julian helped her reclaim every piece of herself, Ethan watched his empire crumble, realizing too late he'd traded a diamond for dust. Wren learned real love doesn't ask you to slow down—it keeps pace.

Before my Alpha husband poisoned me, he said, “You’ve fulfilled your purpose.” I was reborn on the day he came to our door with the marriage contract. In front of everyone, I tore it apart and refused him. My mother called me insane, but my younger sister dragged me into a room, trembling all over. “Sister, after you died, he married me too. He cut off my limbs, gouged out my eyes, and left me only my voice, so I could sing for him every night.” In our last life, both of us sisters were nothing but his tools. In this life, he won’t get either of us.

Before I left for the Rogue Wars, my best friend Selene made me memorize one warning: if I ever came home and saw her eating almonds, that woman was not her. Three months later, I returned to Blood Moon Pack and found the Luna smiling at the dinner table, chewing the one food that should have killed her. Same face. Same scent. Same memories. She even called me by our childhood nickname. But Selene had never given false warnings. If the woman in front of me was not her, then where was my real Luna?

Once the strongest rope guide of the Sacred Mountain, Evelyn was framed after an avalanche by the beloved Saintess Celeste, who claimed Evelyn cut the rescue rope and left her crippled.

With nothing left to lose, Evelyn tears up the atonement contract and drags the Saintess’s perfect lie into the light.

Cora took in three wounded wolves and raised them. The moment her sister Vivian appeared, the wolves couldn't look away—they turned cold and rough, trying to break Cora. She overheard them mocking her. So she offered a trade: three wolves for Vivian's snake. Silas the snake was ice-cold, yet he stayed—doing chores, guarding her. When her family forced an arranged marriage, Cora faked agreement, then fled through a window on her wedding day. Silas tracked her to the airport, injuring two wolves who tried to stop him. “You'll never get rid of me,” he said. Cora took over the family business and bonded with Silas. The cold snake was truer than any wolf.
