My best friend and I gave everything to two allied Alphas. Everett was my fated mate, but he refused to mark me and abandoned my Luna ceremony to find Sloane’s lost wolf-fang pendant, denying me the blood that could have saved my grandmother. Grant treated Ivy as a Luna who would never leave him. Together, we rejected our fated mates. Then Everett pushed me down the council’s stone steps and killed our unborn pup. After Ivy and I opened a healing clinic in neutral territory, both Alphas begged for forgiveness. But their power could not save them: Sloane was exposed and cast out, Grant’s abuse of power led to his downfall, and both Alphas were removed by the council.
