Bloodmoon Pack.
10 PM.
Ravenna's POV
"Worthless, Omega."
"Useless, lazy slave."
"The Alpha should have left you to die."
The insults from Luna Selena and the pack members echoed in my head. But surprisingly, it doesn't hurt anymore. I have been accustomed to their derailing words that it's no longer hurt. If anything, it just feels like a bad music to my ears. One I didn't want to hear, but I couldn't do anything to stop. And the reasons they do that? I don't know.
I stood by the window side staring at the pack house that was luminated by the florescent bulbs, giving it an attractive view. It was beautiful from up here and I wonder if a time would ever come that my life would be this beautiful.
Just as I wanted to turn away, I caught sight of a family who were taking a night stroll in the pack garden. The sight made my chest tightened.
"If only my parent never abandoned me," I muttered to myself, my eyes still fixed at the sight of the family now playing a hide and seek game.
But they had abandoned me. I was just two years when they dropped me at the gate of the Bloodmoon Pack for reasons I don't know. Alpha Lucian had been so kind to take me in and treated me right, but Luna Selena hated me. She had maltreated me several times and even made sure I left the palace and stayed in this shitty storage room instead.
But I quickly pushed it away the thought off my mind. I should go to sleep now. Just as I tried to lock the window, a hand shot up. Then his scent-pine and storm-flooded the room before I saw him jumped into the room.
Ronan Bloodmoon. The Alpha's son. My mate. The only man who loved me against all odds. I wasn't in his level-I was a low life omega, the pack slave and not a very beautiful woman. But he loved me just like that.
He stood tall, broad-shouldered. His piercing blue eyes staring right into my soul. He had a captivating appearance that made him look like someone who belonged to the front cover of a magazine. He was beautiful.
When I discovered that he was my mate two years ago on my eighteenth birthday, I was so thrilled and I knew for sure that I had received favor from the Moon Goddess. This was the boy I had loved since I was thirteen. The prince with a smile that lights up the darkness in my world.
And, we've been dating in secret because of his mother, Luna Selena and the pack members who thinks I'm not even worthy of being alive, talk more of being the future Luna.
"Ronan....." I murmured, my eyes never leaving him. "I thought you weren't coming tonight?" I asked."
"Why won't I?" Ronan murmured, his voice rough. He step closer to me, his eyes roaming my body. "I won't be able to sleep without having a taste of you."
Of course, I knew he was saying the truth. And seriously, I feel the same. Every night we'd fuck eachother that I'm already used to having his cock inside my pussy everyday.
It's hurt at times- most times actually-because Ronan had a very long, thick cock that would fill me completely, but I also enjoyed. And most importantly, I love Ronan and love to please him no matter how tired I am from running the Pack errands.
I blushed and before I could blink, he pushed me onto the bed and slipped his fingers between my thighs. I wasn't wearing anything other than my oversized sleep shirt. His mouth was hot, insistent and already traveling downward, lifting the hem of my shirt with his eager hands.
"You're already wet, Ravenna," he growled, his breath warm against my clit.
"I didn't know you were coming, so I already fucked myself earlier while thinking about you."
"Bad girl," he groaned and his tongue was swirling on my pussy next.
"Fuck," I gasped.
His tongue rolled over me with urgency, no warning. Just pure anger. He sucked on my clit like he hadn't been here just yesterday or even in months. He bite on my G-spot like it was the taste of me that was keeping him alive. I grabbed a handful of his hair, tugging, panting heavily, legs trembling as he sucked me hard. Harder than he ever did.
"Ronan....." I whimpered, my back arching off the bed.
He moaned against me, gripping and spreading my thighs apart. He kept sucking until I was shaking, crying out his name as my orgasm shot out in waves.
He rose from between my legs, lips and face wet with my cream, his blue eyes had turned dark with something feral. Tonight, he seemed different. He doesn't seem like he was making love to me-it was more like he was making lust.
"I am not done," he whispered.
He pulled me up, tossing the sleep shirt over my head. The cool air met my nipples, causing it to peak out. He didn't waste time before wrapping his hand around one and squeezing it roughly, then the other-sucking hard, biting just enough to make me gasp.
"Ouchhhhhhh," I moaned with my eyes closed, feeling the thrill washed down on me and it seemed like I was going to cum for the second time tonight. "Please fuck me, now."
He didn't answer. Instead, he pulled back and kissed me hungrily-I tasted myself on his tongue. He kissed me hard, bitting my lower lips and it was until they almost started bleeding that he pulled back. Then his lips trailed down my neck, pressing a kiss to the spot where he once marked me.
He undid his belt and freed his dick-hard, thick, already dripping. He stroked himself slowly, watching me with that intense Alpha gaze that made my knees weak.
"On your knees," he commanded.
Of course, I obeyed. Who am I not to? I dropped to my knees in front of him, his cock pointing directly to my face.
He placed his hand at the back of my head, guiding me forward and brushing the tip of his cock over my lips. I opened my mouth, taking him in, inch by inch, my tongue swirling, my lips sealing around him.
"Just like that," he groaned, thrusting deeper. "Choke on it...."
I felt his cock hitting the back of my throat, tears forming at the corners of my mouth. His hand gripped my hair harder and I felt pain throbbing from my scalp. He thrusted in and out of my mouth, his pre-cum and my saliva dripping from the corners of my lips and the scent of his arousal feeling my nostrils.
I love the way his hips bucked, the way he let out a animalistic growl, muttering my name like a prayer. When he was close to orgasm, he pulled out and flipped me over, my ass arching backward and I was in a doggy style-it was his best style because he'd be able to get deep inside me.
"Now. I need to be inside that tight pussy."
And then he thrusted into me with a growl, filling me completely. I cried out, gripping the sheets, my body trembling as he slammed into me again and again, my hole tightening around his dick. It was rough. Wilder than ever. Desperate.
His dick slammed into me continuously, and my pussy was making loud smacking sound as he controlled my pace with his hands on my waist.
"Ronan, please........" I begged, feeling my pussy on fire, almost ripping apart.
But instead, he thrusted deeper inside me and I felt wave over wave of his orgasm inside me. When he pulled out, I collapsed forward.
He collapsed beside me, both of us drenched in sweat and breathless. My thighs were still trembling from the force of him. He wrapped his hands around me and pulled me into his chest.
The silence stretched between us before I broke it, muttering. "You were rough tonight. Are you okay?"
He placed a gentle kiss on my forehead. "I just missed you so much."
I blushed, my chest swelling that I had almost forgotten the pains around my pussy.
"I think about it all the time," I whispered. "What it would be like if things were different. If we could just be... us. Out in the open."
His arms tightened around me. "You think I don't want that too? You think I don't want to tell the whole pack how much I love you? But mother...."
He didn't complete his sentence, and he doesn't have to. I knew too well what he meant. Luna Selena would never allow us be together. We were too different worlds apart. She wanted a powerful, influential wife for him, someone who'd compliment and add value to him while I was someone who had nothing to offer other than ..... my body.
It fell silent between us again before he spoke.
"Ravenna.... I really .....need your help. I'm in deep trouble and only you can save my soul."

Ravenna's POV
"Ravenna.... I really......need your help. I'm in deep trouble and only you can save my soul."
My help? Deep trouble? My stomach dropped. Something in his voice and in the way he thrusted into me earlier had told me something was wrong. And now -he needed my help. How could I possibly be of help to the Alpha heir who had thousands of people at his beck and call?
But anyway, I lifted my head slowly. I should hear whatever he had to say. "What is it?"
He sat up, staring at the ceiling for a long moment. "There was a warrior. One of the Crescent Moon delegates. I... I killed him."
The world stilled. This was really deep trouble like he had said.
This was disastrous. The Moon Crescent Pack and the Bloodmoon Pack had been at war with each other for a very long time. But yesterday the Moon Crescent had come to the Bloodmoon pack and extended a peaceful alliance. But now that Ronan had killed one of their warriors, it would only fuel the battle.
The air disappeared from my lungs. "Ronan-"
"It was bad," he said quickly, his voice low with fear and regret. "I lost control. He's unrecognisable. There's going to be a fallout, Ravenna. Big fallout. If they found out I killed him-my father will disown me. Our Pack would suffer attacks."
"And you want me to take the blame?" I asked, already knowing what he was driving at.
"You're an omega," he said, his voice almost pleading. "No one expects anything from you. You will be exiled for a few weeks. Father had already planned to pass the throne to me. Once he does, I'll come for you. I promise. I'll make our relationship official. I'll claim you as my mate in front of everyone."
I couldn't breathe. I couldn't say a word. My thighs were still wet from what we just had. And now this?
"You love me, right?" He asked, taking my hands in his. "Because I love you, Ravenna. And I need you now more than ever."
I looked at him-this was my mate, my king, and the only man who was meant for me. Just a few weeks and everything would be over. I trusted Ronan more than I trusted myself. He would definitely keep his promises. He would definitely come for me.
Alpha. If he becomes the Alpha, then I'm made for life. I will be able to change my fate from being a worthless, wolfless Omega and slave-to being the Luna. Then no one would ever treat me like trash. I'll be honoured, respected, and powerful. This is a chance for me to help myself, while helping my mate.
Then I nodded slowly despite the fear coursing through me. "Yes."
"Oh," he sighed, pulling me into a tight embrace, my breasts pressing against his chiseled chest. "Thank you, Ravenna," he muttered, his breath hot against his ears. "Thank you so much."
He pulled out of the embrace and placed a gentle kiss on my lips. When he withdrew from the kiss I had expected him to dress up and sneak out as always, but instead he positioned me on the bed and slipped between my legs.
"Again," I whispered, my voice raw. "My body still hurts....."
"I know my little wolf," he replied, positioning his dick at my entrance. "But I'll miss you. I need to feel you again.... one last time."
With that, he thrust into me, harder and claiming me once more as if this was our goodbye.

Next Morning.
"You," Alpha Lucian's voice-thick with disbelief echoed through the grand wall-which was filled with pack members. "How did a weak Omega manage to kill such a powerful warrior of the Moon Crescent Pack?"
I stood before him, trembling as his fury-filled eyes locked with mine. I was surrounded by the guards-I was already tagged a criminal.
"He wasn't watching. So I attacked him from behind."
A gasp echoed in the room from the pack members, the warriors, and the delegates of the Moon Crescent pack.
Alpha didn't believe me still as he bared his teeth. "Even at that, how can a mere Omega slaughter a trained warrior like that. He was barely recognizable."
Desperation clawed at me as I tried to convince him. "I... I was fast," I replied, lowering my head as if he would somehow deduce the truth from my features.
Ronan stood behind the crowd. He was dressed in a breathtaking regal outfit. He looked calm. Almost... cold like I truly killed the warrior. Like I wasn't taking the fall for him. But I made a mental note that he must have been like that to make everything more convincing.
Then, like a nightmare, Thalia-the leader of the delegate and the Crescent Moon Alpha's daughter-strode in-looking very beautiful and a bit of powerful princess that she was. She strode towards Ronan and kissed him full on the mouth.
It was like the world stilled. I froze.
No. This can't be happening. I must have been seeing things. I closed my eyes and when I opened it-she had withdrawal from the kiss-but Ronan's hand was still on her waist.
The people didn't look surprised. In fact they weren't even paying any attention to them. All eyes were fixed on the weak Omega who had managed to kill a trained warrior.
Pain stabbed through me, deeper than any blade. But I didn't react. I couldn't.
Then Alpha stepped back. "You'll be imprisoned until further notice. The Crescent Moon demands justice."
Chains were clasped around my wrists as they dragged me away. But my eyes strained back at Ronan who was smiling with Thalia like nothing happened.
_______
The prison door creaked open, echoing through the dark, quiet night. I looked up from where I sat, the blood that slurred from the silver cuffs around my wrist already dried up.
"Ronan?"
There he was. He stepped inside, his presence towering over me. For a moment, hope ignited inside me. Maybe he has come to fix this -that the kiss with Thalia earlier was part of the plan.
I forced a smile. "You could've warmed me about warnedss with Thalia..... " I swallowed, the lump in my throat. "You really made me scared."
He stepped closer and his torch light caught his face. It was everything I have never seen hadreverld. Emotionless.
"It wasn't a plan," he said at last, his words slow and heavy. "The kiss..... It was real. Thalia -she's my mate now."
My heart pierced at his words.
"No." I shook my head frantically, trying so hard to deny it even though I had heard him clearly. "You told me you loved me. You told me you were going to come for me."
"I thought I loved you....but I realised TButia was actually the woman meant for me," he replied, avoiding my eyes.
My stomach twisted in painful knots. "Ronan, please don't do this. You promised me a future...."
A cold, sharp voice cut through the air. "Quit dreaming, Omega."
Luna Selena entered, every features in her featurehed with disdain. "You?" She sneered. "A Luna? You're a filthy. Just some available hole for my son to bury his urges in. Nothing more."
I turned to Ronan, my heart shattering into pieces. "Tell her, Ronan. Tell her she's wrong."
Silence.
He didn't say anything. He didn't even look at me.
"Ronan....." The silence lingered, killing me by each passing withcond.
Then finally. "She's not wrong. You're just a convenient hole for my release."
My world tilted, and the tears that have been pilinghadall day finally streamed down my face.
Before I could say more, he continued. "I, Ronan of the Bloodmoon Pack, reject you, Ravenna as my mate."
Pain ripped my soul apart as the mate bond shattered like glass. A scream tore through my throat as it felt like untamed fire was ripping from the spot he had marked me. I couldn't sit still and had to collapsed to thecollapseor.
"I accept," I gasped through the agony. "I accept your rejection."
Selena stepped forward, calm and composed just as always. She pulled out a dagger from her robes.
"Do it," she said, offering it to Ronan. "Seal your place as Alpha. End her life. You don't want her telling everyone that you killed the Moon Crescent warrior, right?"
Ronan looked at the dagger. He shook his head stepping back. "Mother....."
She hissed. "Will you stop being a coward. Do it. Or lose everything."
He looked at me and passed the dagger back to her. "I can't."
Selena didn't hesitate. She crouched lower, drove the blade down my face. My screams echoed through the night at the pain rippling me aparrippinghe wasn't done yet. Finally, she drove the blade into my chest.
I felt it all-the pain that burned through my chest, my heart stilling. Blood slide down my faslidd also poured from my chest.
My eyes locked with the same man who had promised me everything just yesternight.
He didn't flinch.
He didn't cry.
He just turned and walked away.
And the last thing I saw before I closed my eyes was Luna Selena's triumphant smile -like she had just gotten rid of her biggest worry.
Oh..... Is this how am going to die?I'ms this how I'm going to lose my life after everything I had done for hI'veave up my dig?ity, my body, my freedom just for him.
I echoed through my almost lifeless mind. 'Moon Goddess..... please. Save me...... just this once.'
Then darkness swallowed me.
Lunarstrike Pack.
7 AM.
Ravenna's POV
I slipped on my skirts slowly, feeling Damon's eyes on me. Damon is the Alpha heir of the Lunarstrike pack-it was a small pack in the southern province-the people were nice and accommodating. His gaze pierced into my naked back. The sheets were tangled and the smell of our orgasm still thick in the air. I reached for my bra and quickly slipped it on, then my blouse.
"Vexley...." Damon's voice was low and almost pleading.
I didn't look at him. I didn't bother answering.
He moved behind me, the mattress dipping slightly under his weight. And I felt his warm and gentle palm, squeezing my clothed breasts a little bit hard as if he wanted to memorize me with my touch alone. I stiffened, my breath caught between protest and surrender as I bit back the moan threatening to escape my lips-I couldn't let him know how much impact he has on me.
"Please," he whispered, his lips warm against my ears. "I love you. Be mine. I want you as my mate. I want to marry you, Vexley."
I rolled my eyes. Of course, I knew where he was driving to.
Instead of him to just let us enjoy the moment, but he'd ruin it with his marriage talk everytime. I know Damon is a nice and kind man: He made sure his people accepted me and the Lunarstrike pack felt like home.
We started off as friends-he would always comfort me in my lowest time and encourage me that I could survive my past and become someone too. Damon trained me in marital arts-I even joined the Royal bodyguards. I was a skilled fighter even though I was still wolfless.
But everything between us changed one night in the pack garden. We gave in to our desires and since then we have been sleeping together-Damon have a thick, long cock that would always have any woman hooked.
Everyone in the pack knew about us and they had thought we were something serious and that one day I'll become their Luna. That was delusional!
"Love? Marriage?" I gave a hollow laugh, turning at him and slipping his hand away from my breast. "Those aren't in my dictionary anymore."
His face twisted in frustration, confusion. "I know what you've been through-"
"No," I snapped, my voice cold as ice. "You don't. And you never will."
Damon stood from the bed, naked-his cock was still a little hard. He crouched down in front of me, his golden hair was a tousled mess and his eyes-those affectionate eyes-were searching mine for something he'd never find. Something I had thrown away that night after Ronan betrayed me. That night Selena ripped my face and chest apart.
"I could come with you to the Academy," he said, his voice desperate. "At least drive you-"
"No," I said firmly, standing up and walking out of the room. "You don't have to." I knew Damon meant well but I can't let anyone close-not anymore.
"I'm going to miss you," he simply said.
I paused in the doorway. "Don't." Then I walked out.

The Elder's mansion was quiet when I arrived, the morning sun filtering in through the window blinds. I stepped into the room I had lived in for the past three years and shut the door behind me.
As I stood by the closet trying to pack some of the essentials, the mirror was like a magnet, drawing me in. I stood before it. The girl staring back at me wasn't Ravenna, the lowlife Omega and slave. I am now Vexley Aleron.
Long dark lashes, almost white, perfect skin. High cheekbones, plump lips. A total stranger.
More beautiful than Ravenna. More deadly too
I remembered everything-the pain, the betrayal.
Elder Aleron saved me. He gave me a new life, hope and home.
______
I was in the coma for four months and when I woke up bandages were all over my body. But my face felt quite different. Felt like it doesn't belong to me.
The nurse hesitated before handing me a mirror. When I saw my reflection, I screamed.
And when I asked for explanations, I was told Elder Aleron found me in the forest where I have been left to die by Selena and Ronan. He saved me, arranged for everything-called in the best magician healers in the kingdom to treat my wounds and got in contact with the best surgeons who did a face surgery on me because my old face was ripped beyond repair.
Instead of gratitude, I was angry on why he had to go through so much stress just to save a low life like me. But the elder had stepped closer.
"You shouldn't be angry at yourself for being a good person. It's those who hurt you that deserves to suffer." He pulled me into a comforting embrace and said one statement that I have never forgotten since then.
"Let this be your second chance," he had told me. "To live... or to destroy those who tried to kill you."
So, I chose the later. Armed with nothing but a steel heart and a new identity, I promise to destroy them all-to pay them back for the wrongs against me.

Bloodmoon Academy
I stood at the gates of the Bloodmoon Academy. The academy loomed ahead-proud and regal. A place for warriors and elites-the cruelest and the untouchable trained here. A place where I once had no place. But now, I walked it's grounds freely.
The Bloodmoon Academy was owned by the Bloodmoon Pack, and I had waited all my life to be here.
Inside, the dormitory halls were already bustling with voices. Eyes fixed on me as I searched for my dorm. I knew why they were staring-they were probably attracted to my beauty. The surgeon had done a perfect job on my face that I couldn't enter a room without being noticed.
I located my dorm immediately. I stepped into the room-which was neat and decent enough. I dropped my bag on the empty bed.
A girl with dark red hair and emerald eyes looked up from her bunk, a smile on her lips. "You're my new roommate?"
I nodded.
"I'm Astrid. You?"
"Vexley," I said.
She tilted her head. "I don't know someone could transfer this late. Only two years until graduation."
"I've always loved the Bloodmoon Academy," I said smoothly. "Thought I'd finish at the best Academy in the kingdom."
Astrid shrugged. "Fair enough." She paused. "Would you be free to attend the Alpha coronation party today."
I turned, my heart skipped a beat. "What?"
"Yeah. Big celebration. They're crowning Ronan-Alpha Lucian's son. It's gonna be massive. You should come."
A smirk tugged at my lips, my heart swelling with gratitude to the Moon Goddess. Everything is falling into place so fast.
Ronan. My traitor. My mate. My enemy.
I said in a smooth voice. "I wouldn't miss it for the world."
Now.... Let's go cause disaster.
