Too late Alpha, the scorned Luna is reborn.

A request

RIVENNA’S POV.

*

*

Rivenna stared at Vaughn in awe; she could see the outright devotion on the male's face as his rough, calloused, yet warm hand caressed her face.

She could see the anger he held in her place.

Why did his words and touch make her want to confess everything she had been keeping to herself? Why did he make her want to lean on him?

But this one daunting thought had come back, knowing this was the exact way Wren had taken root in her heart.

Just a small kindness he’d shown her had made Rivenna fall deeply.

It had made her give up her inhibitions when he was around. She couldn’t make that mistake again.

“I never trust the words of males driven by power because that is what you all want in the end.

You trust your sweet nothings with lies and make women swoon,” Rivenna muttered as she pushed his hands off.

“Wren might be a liar, but I do know for a fact that your words of devotion to me mean nothing when you are a lycan,” she said as he took her mouveil from the floor.

“Those bastards might have gotten it right about lycans who share their women.

But I am not like other lycans, nor are you like other women.

You are a queen who deserves to be worshiped and praised by a king,” he muttered, and Rivenna scowled.

“Then how are you any different when you kissed me when I belong to your king?" she muttered to the male whose eyes were on her lips, like he was daydreaming of licking those pillowy pink lips.

“It meant something ” he drawled in a dark tone. She hated the way he acted, how sure he was.

The way he claimed that he would never look another woman’s way, and she needed Vaughn to see reality just like she did.

“Walk with me?” She called to the lycan, who nodded as he fell into step with her. The clouds were already dark enough as the moon peeked out.

“I feel the buzz under my skin, that means the golden moon in a few hours would start my shift.

And my shift would prove that I am a full wolf and my full shifting powers will come," Rivenna explained with enthusiasm.

Her eyes gleamed with anticipation to meet her wolf, because in her past life, she didn’t have any, and on the day of her shift,

She was disgraced with having no wolf, and that's why she felt grateful for Wren, who had accepted and mated with her anyway.

But this time it would be different.

Rivenna had pulled a lever that opened a door, one tightly crammed for Vaughn,

who had still walked in and followed her steps through the naturally lit space by glowing stones.

“This is an ancient secret passage that only I know of; it leads to different rooms with spaces that could be used to spy on them, including Wren's chambers," she explained, and Vaughn was not at all pleased.

“You were right, I was so obsessed with Wren and the illusion of being loved so wildly,

I couldn’t let him go before," she said sadly. "And during my younger years, I used this as an outlet for my yearning," she explained.

In her past life as a married woman, she recalled that Wren had set a rule that no one would be allowed in his chambers after sunset, and any time

Rivenna had made her presence known in Wren's chambers every morning, and she would get a sweet scent of Bria’s perfume.

“But now, the truth is as clear as day," she sent telepathically, opening up a small hole that was covered by a statue.

One that looked directly into Wren's room.

And the smell of s*x and lust evaded both their senses as Wren sat naked on an armchair by the fire, while Bria sat lush on his lap, her breasts bouncing as she rode him hard.

Her cheeks flushed from her pleasure, smiling as she held on to Wren, her breasts bobbing as she pushed one n****e into Wren's mouth as he sucked greedily.

“Oh yes, Wren, fuckk! Oh gods!" she moaned with the roll of her hips.

“You are mine, and this child in my belly is testament to our love," Bria moaned quicker as Wren's grunts turned into moans.

“Yes, my love, f**k, you’re everything I want."

“And when you get the power to rule, Rivenna will be history. Promise me that,” Bria muttered as she kissed his lips, their orgasms driving them into a high.

“Yes, my love…she is nothing—” Vaughn immediately sealed the hole as his nose flared, growling lowly.

“That's enough," he called telepathically just as his eyes gleamed a cruel red.

Gleaming with bloodlust as Vaughn looked like he was out to bring the whole wall down to get to Wren and kill him.

“No, don't! Please," Rivenna took his hand and led him up the steps to the door that led to her room.

Before she closed the secret door and turned to a very pissed-off Vaughn.

“What is this? You know about his betrayal and you still let him go!

Why the f**k would you show me that if you didn't want me to kill that bastard there and then!” Vaughn roared.

“They means nothing to me, they believe I do not know their lies, that I do not know who the child in her belly belongs to…” she muttered, trying to act like she wasn’t hurt.

But Vaughn had walked up to her, his finger stroking her chin up for their eyes to meet, as he met Rivenna's eyes with unshed tears.

“You have a heart; of course it would hurt to find the man who had acted as if he loved you, like he was devoted to you, to do and say those things," Vaughn said.

"When in reality he is to be kissing your feet as you are his entire world and you are a queen meant to be worshiped."

Rivenna was speechless watching this male, as there was no hesitation in his words for her.

“My family and pack say that I am making a mistake in trusting you, as we should never trust a lycan," she said with a shaky breath.

“Yet I can’t help it…why? And why me when I do not have anything you need?" She whispered, watching him with stern eyes as her brows furrowed.

“Well, my beast says otherwise, and you are what I want,” he muttered and Rivenna cleared her throat.

“My shift will be in a few hours; my chosen mate is supposed to accompany me to the mating caves," she said with a blush on her cheeks.

“That means you will have to mate me if your king cannot—or at least pretend to," she said, and Vaughn's eyes held a darkened flame in them.

One that made heat bloom at her core watching this male watch her like she was a goddess.

“It will be my pleasure," he muttered as she watched him.

“I do have one request," she told the alpha, biting her lips till it drew a darker hue.

“No matter the circumstances, no matter how I beg…do not mark me."
