She thought she was the love of his life, and he became the love of her life that fateful day she had seen him at the pack's party. Selene Grace was only a replica of Alpha Leo's real mate, and when he spotted her, Leo immediately claimed her as his Luna in order to suppress the rumors of him being mateless. Being unable to conceive turns Selene's marriage into a nightmare, and as if that wasn't enough, Alpha Leo finally reunites with his long time lover and mate, rejecting a pregnant Selene as a result. 5 years later, Selene, a now successful doctor, receives an invitation to the moon shadow pack in order to rid the pack of a deadly disease which has struck it. Will Selene return back to the pack which had caused her so much pain, and what would she do when she realizes that she is mated to the Alpha who had betrayed her in the past?
"You're two weeks pregnant Luna Selene."
I arched my brows, utmostly surprised when I heard the pack doctor break the news to me. I had no idea whether to be happy or sad, but I wanted to show my happiness.
A smile carved at the corners of my lips, and I rubbed the tears that brimmed the corners of my eyes clean because the news was worth it.
I had been waiting to hear this for three years after I got married to my husband, Alpha Leo. My husband, Leo and I had been married for three years, but I wasn't able to conceive. I had one most important duty, and that was to bear him an heir for the future of the pack, and every day, the gossips about my inability to bear a child became so toxic.
Last time, Leo silenced those rumors and gossips, but I knew that as a strong and famous Alpha, he needed an heir to carry on his legacy. The pack needed an heir to ensure his bloodline never ceases.
3 years ago, on my eighteenth birthday and the first day the moon goddess would present a wolf to me, I was working as a maid in the Blood Moon Pack, and that was where I saw Leo for the first time. At first glance, my wolf Lena immediately recognized him as our mate.
My parents were peasants, and they mostly worked in the Alpha's large farms so we could survive everyday while I worked in the mansion as a maid to further my education.
I thought that as an esteemed guest, Alpha Leo would never accept the mate bond, and I was equally ready for a rejection, but surprisingly, he accepted the mate bond and soon afterwards, our wedding became the talk of the entire pack and many more packs out there. I was so happy, especially because I could prove most people who looked down on me and my family wrong.
"Luna Selene are you alright?" I immediately jerked out of my thoughts when I felt a hand touch my shoulders.
"Oh, oh, yes doctor, I'm fine."
I rose to my feet and picked my bag. I had the calmest voice and a sweet smile that always melted people's hearts.
"Congratulations once again, luna."
"Thank you so much."
A few minutes later, I was out of the hospital. As I approached my car, I tucked my hand into my bag and brought out my phone. I tried to reach Leo, but after several trials, the calls couldn't connect. I went back home, and decided to prepare a nice dinner for Leo and when I was done, I sat on the couch tiredly waiting for his return.
Even after 3 hours, there was still no sign of Leo. I had tried to reach him again, but the call wasn't connecting, so the only thing I had to do was wait.
A few minutes later, I dozed off to sleep without realizing it because I was too tired.
I was awakened by the sound of the door and I jerked upright in fear. It was still dark, but I could feel Leo's presence. I called his name in fright, but there was no answer. In the darkness, instead of responding, he accused me of deceiving him and called me despicable. His voice hit me so hard like a rock, and my heart nearly sunk, "I want a divorce!!" He yelled at me, but his first words to me still left me in a confused stage as I had no idea what was really going on.
Staring at him with watery eyes that I was trying so hard to control, I begged to know what my offence was. I had always been an obedient Luna and most importantly, a supportive Luna to him. What had I really done?
I almost fell on my knees trying to control the situation right in front of me.
"What is going on, Leo, please talk to me. Say something! Say anything please!" I begged him.
Now, I was on my knees begging to be told what I had actually done wrong.
"You heard me Selene, I want a divorce and I want you gone from my life for good."
The tears that I had been trying so hard to hold back finally fell from my eyes. I didn't want to leave because over the years I had grown to love my husband with everything I had. I had no other choice. If the reason Leo was saying all these was because I couldn't conceive, then I needed to break the news to him now.
"I'm pregnant! We're having a baby together." I informed him with the hope that he could change his mind after hearing that I was pregnant, but his words shocked me even harder.
He backed me, and then said, "Get rid of the baby, I don't want someone like you bearing my child and heir to my pack.."
Those words came as a shock to me, and they made me think I was in a dream, a bad dream that I wanted to wake up from. Was this man standing right in front of me really my husband? Was this the same Leo I had met on my eighteenth birthday.
"Why? Why are you doing this to me? To our baby?"
He seemed even more angry when I called the baby's name for a second time. I couldn't believe his heartlessness, and it made me think he almost wasn't human at all.
With all coldness and inhumane nature in him, he declared, "I Alpha Leo Knight rejected you Selene Grace as my Luna, and my mate. I never want you to show your filthy face in my pack ever again."
All I could feel at that moment was pain.
Leo was my first, and I always prayed he would be my last.
I had never felt the pain of a mate bond being broken before, but it was brutal. The pain of our mate bond being broken was so intense and I could feel it shattering all of me inside.
I groaned in pain hoping Leo would even look at him, but even my pain wasn't enough to make him spare me a glance at least.
I called his name softly as I laid on the floor, deeply in pain and asking myself what would happen next.
I could hear his loud footsteps, and he could feel the slow beats of my heart against my chest. Heartlessly, he walked away, leaving me to drown in my own misery.
Broken, I shut my eyes and lost consciousness in agony.
