Chapter 1
I have a secret.]
Before my 30th birthday, every thousand times my mate claims me, I can shed tears that crystallize into a single moon stone.
One moon stone can grant my Alpha mate one wish.
My mate Kael is insatiable, marking me day and night with his massive frame. Two years of his relentless claiming produced two
moon stones.
The first stone – he wished for unbreakable strength.
The second stone – he wished to become the most powerful Alpha in the territory []
After becoming the supreme Alpha, he remained addicted to me, taking me even on pack business trips
The day before my 30th birthday, his female Beta Sera secretary posted on Ins
The Alpha’s Luna screams so loud every night. I’m so jealous, Want to try.”
Kael was furious and immediately expelled Sera from the pack.
That night, he claimed me again and again until we had the third moon stone.

This time, he wished for pups with me and an eternal mate bond.
But a month later, Sera was pregnant
Kael knelt before me, tears streaming as he begged me to sever our mate hond.[]
“Luna, the pack healer says your body is too torn from my size. You need time to heal. She’s just your substitute.”
“The girl is innocent She cried, afraid others would call her a homewrecker, afraid the pup would be called illegitimate. I can’t abandon them.1
“I already wished for our eternal bond. We’ll sever temporarily, let the pup be born and acknowledged, then re–bond. Please?”
I smiled and said yes.
What he didn’t know?
If he severed our mate hond, ALL his moon stone wishes would crumble to dust!!

I never expected Kael couldn’t wait even one day.
He eagerly pushed me toward his car. “I brought all the documents. The severance papers are in the car. Sign them on the way.“]
I steadied my emotions. “I can’t today. The National Engineering Excellence Awards ceremony I’m a recipient. I can’t miss it.”
He froze, seeming
ming to remember this was true]

Sera in the car started crying, reaching for the door handle. “Does Luna regret it?”
“It’s okay, Alpha. If Luna won’t let go, I will. I don’t want to burden you.”
“I’ll terminate the pup and bless your hand
Such terrible acting, yet Kael believed every word.
He stroked Sera’s hair, looking at me with poisoned eyes.[]
“Luna, I hate seeing you so calculating.”
“It’s just some meaningless award. If you want recognition, I’ll buy you ten next year.”
I looked up at him, remembering the young man who once promised to light up the entire city with fireworks when I won this award. That memory overlapped with the stranger before me.
I swallowed the bitterness. “You know how important this award is to me. It’s just one day.”
Sera looked innocent “Today’s Friday. Doesn’t Luna know the courthouse is closed tomorrow?
“If Luna doesn’t want the severance, just say so. Alpha, go chase Luna’s dreams. Don’t worry about me and the pup.”
“An illegitimate child is a mistake from birth. I’ll end this mistake myself.“[]
She covered her face and walked forward, only to stumble on her first step.||
Kael rushed to help, but Sera pushed him away.
She cried pitifully. This must be the Moon Goddess punishing me for being the other woman
“Alpha, I was wrong. Please, just let me go!”

Kael pulled her into his arms, gently wiping her tears. The one who deserves punishment is someone else!
He raised his hand, summoning his enforcers. “One hundred strikes. Beat her until she can’t show her face in public.
Before I could react, the first blow landed []
