Chapter 1 - The Night He Rejected Me
228 Words
For eighteen years, everyone called me weak.
Wolf-less.
Useless.
I believed them.
Until my eighteenth birthday.
The moment Alpha Damon Blackwood entered the ceremony, something inside me awakened.
My wolf.
And her first word was terrifying.
Mate.
Damon was my mate.
The most powerful, feared man in Blackwood Pack was the man fate had chosen for me.
For the first time, I felt wanted.
Then Damon looked into my eyes and said,
“I reject you, Luna Hale.”
My heart shattered.
The entire pack stared as laughter and whispers filled the clearing.
I ran.
I didn't see Damon follow me until his hand suddenly grabbed my wrist.
“Listen carefully,” he whispered. “I rejected you to save your life.”
I stared at him through my tears.
“Save me from who?”
His eyes dropped to the silver crescent necklace around my neck.
He went completely pale.
“Where did you get that?”
“My mother.”
His expression changed.
“Elizabeth Hale?”
I nodded.
He stepped backward.
“That can't be possible.”
“What can't?”
Before he could answer, a growl echoed behind us.
Two red eyes appeared between the trees.
Damon pulled me behind him.
Then someone whispered from the darkness:
“We finally found the girl who should have died eighteen years ago.”
I stopped breathing.
