The Alpha's Abandoned Mate Is The True Luna
My Alpha mate abandoned me three years ago, leaving me as a disgraced Omega to raise our two children in a freezing, ruined hovel.
To keep them from starving, I was forced into a humiliating deal with a rogue wolf named Jax, who stole our pack rations and demanded my young son as payment.
The entire pack shunned me, my mother-in-law treated me like dirt, and my children lived in constant fear.
When I finally awakened my ancient Luna bloodline to fight off Jax and feed my kids, Ryker suddenly returned.
But he didn't come to save us. He blasted our door off its hinges, his eyes burning with a murderous rage.
He ignored our starving reality and accused me of selling our bloodline to the rogue.
"Where is the rogue? Who did you trade my bloodline to?!"
I had endured beatings, starvation, and utter humiliation just to keep his children breathing.
I had bled to protect our family. Yet, the moment he returned, he believed the lies of our tormentor and looked at me with the intent to kill.
Why was I the villain in the story of my own survival?
As his powerful inner wolf suddenly whined in submission for the magical food I had cooked, his Alpha command faltered into deep confusion.
He ordered me not to leave his sight until I explained everything.
But looking at the mate who had abandoned us, my mind was crystal clear.
The real question wasn't whether I would leave, but whether he was still worthy of letting me stay.

Chapter 1
Elara Thorne POV:
The wind cut through my thin tunic, a bitter cold that seeped into my bones. My hand, resting on my son Cole’s shoulder, felt like a block of ice. It was a dead weight, a brand of my failure. I was about to do the unthinkable.
Guilt was a physical thing, a sickness churning in my stomach. For months, I’d endured it all. The pack shunning me after my mate left, our food rations stolen by stronger wolves, the wall of our hovel kicked in for sport. I did it all to protect my children, but now, to save my daughter Faye from starving, I had to sacrifice my son.
Cole looked up at me. His emerald green eyes, so like my own, held no tears. There was only a quiet, chilling disappointment that was worse than any accusation. That look shattered what was left of my soul.
From the shadows of the Blackstone Forest, a figure emerged. Jax. The rogue wolf’s scent was a foul mix of greed and unwashed fur. He held out a grimy hand.
"Give him to me, Elara," he rasped, his mud-brown eyes fixed on Cole. "Your troubles are over."
My own wolf, a weak and starved Omega, whimpered in my mind. A pathetic plea. I felt my fingers begin to loosen, the final act of surrender.
Then, a small, weak sound cut through the air. A cough.
It came from the bundle strapped to my chest. Faye.
The sound was a lightning strike to my heart. My entire world, which had been gray and shrinking, exploded in a flash of white-hot light. A voice, ancient and powerful, thundered in my mind. It was female, cold as a winter moon, and filled with absolute authority.
*My bloodline does not yield.*
A searing heat shot up my spine, flooding every limb, chasing away the cold, the hunger, the weakness. The fog of despair in my mind vanished, replaced by a crystal-clear, icy resolve.
My eyes snapped to Jax. He flinched.
In one swift, powerful motion, I yanked Cole behind me, shoving him behind my legs and shielding him with my body. The movement was fluid and strong, nothing like the starved Omega I had been moments ago.
Jax stared, his jaw slack. I could see his nostrils flare as he scented the air. The cloying scent of my fear was gone, replaced by something else. Something that made his inner wolf bristle.
"Get lost, Jax," I said. My voice didn't tremble. It was low and steady. "The deal is off."
Rage twisted his features. He lunged, his hand reaching for Cole. "You bitch—"
A growl ripped from my chest, but it wasn't the whine of an Omega. It was a deep, guttural sound that carried the weight of an Alpha's command.
Jax froze mid-step, his eyes wide with a mixture of shock and primal fear. He took a stumbling step back.
I didn't give him a second glance. I scooped Faye into my arms, grabbed Cole’s hand, and turned my back on him. My spine was straight, my steps certain. I didn't look back.
When we reached our dilapidated hovel, I shoved a heavy rock against the flimsy door. I turned to face my children.
They were huddled together, staring at me. Not with relief, but with fear. I was a stranger to them.
The gnawing hunger in my stomach returned, a painful reminder of our reality. But as the pain flared, a vision bloomed behind my eyes: a forest bathed in ethereal moonlight, teeming with life. I could smell it, the scent of fat, healthy prey. The Goddess’s gift. The Sacred Hunting Ground.
I knelt before my children, my voice soft but filled with a confidence I had never known. "Don't be afraid," I said. "Mama will find us food."
As I spoke, a fragment of a long-forgotten memory surfaced. The worried face of a pack elder, his voice a low whisper from my childhood. *“The descendant of the Moon Goddess will face a great calamity, but in her despair, she will bring forth a new dawn…”*
I looked at my terrified children, at our broken home. I, Elara Thorne, would not let the calamity happen. From tonight, everything changes.

Clara was drowning in student debt and barely making rent when she downloaded a fantasy mobile game to escape reality.
Inside the game, an exiled prince named Alex was freezing to death. Pitying him, she spent her last few dollars on microtransactions to fix his shelter and cure his poison.
But the game was far too real.
Every time she paid, the prince reacted. When she complained aloud about going broke, the in-game army suddenly halted, as if the prince had heard her voice.
Then, the terrifying real-world consequences hit.
Clara woke up to find her water glass and a box of Kleenex had vanished from her locked bedroom overnight.
She frantically searched the tiny apartment, her heart pounding in her chest.
She thought she was losing her mind. Had she thrown them out in her sleep? Was there a stalker hiding in her home?
How could physical objects just disappear into thin air behind a deadbolted door?
Until she looked at her nightstand.
Sitting exactly where her missing items used to be was a glowing, weightless crystal cup that defied all logic.
And on her laptop screen, the exiled prince was carefully holding her Kleenex box, offering a mountain of real gold on an altar.
She hadn't just downloaded a mobile game; she had opened a cross-dimensional trade route with a desperate future king.

Clara's husband of three years walked into their penthouse with two lawyers.
He threw a divorce agreement on the table, demanding she sign away all her assets. If she refused, he would bankrupt her family and send her mother to federal prison.
He did it all for his new girlfriend, Corinne. After stripping Clara of everything, Kane stood by while Corinne publicly humiliated her, stepping on her fingers and mocking her misery. When Kane suspected Clara might be pregnant, he dragged her to a private clinic. He forced her onto an examination table and ordered a deeply invasive medical check-up, treating her like absolute garbage just to ensure she wasn't carrying his heir.
Lying on the cold medical bed in a thin paper gown, Clara's heart completely shattered. She didn't understand how the man who once promised her forever could turn into such a ruthless monster. She was indeed pregnant, but she knew if he found out, he would steal her baby and destroy her completely.
With the help of a tech-genius friend, Clara faked a negative test result and escaped his clutches. The next day, she walked into their company, threw a bold "I QUIT" note right in the mistress's face, and walked away. Touching her belly, Clara swore she would return to make them pay for every single thing they had done.

To save my family from ruin, I remarried my billionaire ex-husband, Jaxon Lowe. He held my late mother' s locket hostage, forcing me back into a gilded cage where I endured his cold contempt and his very public affair. I played the part of the silent, obedient wife he demanded, building a wall of ice around my heart just to survive.
But my obedience didn't protect me. He abandoned me in a torrential downpour to rescue his mistress, Ivory.
Then, he broke his one promise. He let Ivory have my mother's locket pulled from auction, the very reason for my sacrifice, simply because she found it "unlucky."
That final betrayal led me straight into the hands of his business rival, where I was tortured and left for dead.
But I survived.
Four months later, Jaxon found me. He stood before me, tears streaming down his face, holding the now-repaired locket and begging for forgiveness.
I took back what was mine.
"I want a divorce," I said, my voice calm and final. "And I never want to see you again."

My baby daughter died in the cold hospital, and I agreed to donate her heart to save another pup. I brought her ashes home in a small wooden box, seeking comfort from my mate.
But when I returned to the packhouse, I found a massive celebration. My Alpha mate wasn't away on patrol; he was throwing a grand Naming Ceremony for his sister's newborn. He didn't even know our daughter was dead.
"Give Lyra the gift. Now."
He impatiently demanded I hand over the box in my arms. When his sister's son tried to snatch it, I pushed him away to protect my baby's ashes. His sister immediately screamed, accusing me of trying to hurt her children out of jealousy.
Without asking a single question, my mate grabbed my wrist, ready to smash the box to teach me a lesson. To save my daughter's remains, I had to drop to the floor, bare my neck in ultimate submission, and lie that it was just my late father's relics.
He was disgusted by my tears. Later, when I tried to jump off the balcony to end my pain, he pulled me back—not out of love, but because my suicide would ruin his perfect party. He locked me in my room and ordered the maids to force me into a bright red dress for the evening feast.
Looking at the red silk that mocked my bleeding heart, my despair finally died, replaced by a cold, venomous hatred. I tucked a white funeral flower into my hair and walked out the door. This time, I was going to turn their joyous celebration into a living hell.
