I Loved The Alpha Who Shielded My Pack’s Killer

"My pack was slaughtered. But my fated mate Ethan turned his back on me, choosing another she-wolf, Lyra.In my darkest hour, his brother, Alpha Caden, claimed me.He promised me safety. Vengeance. A home.For three years, I was his Luna. I thought I was safe. Then I learned the truth."You've hidden the evidence for three years, Alpha. You know Lyra was behind the Dawn Moon slaughter. What happens when your Luna finds out?"Caden’s reply shattered my world. "I have to protect Lyra. Even though she chose my brother, I need her to be happy. As for Selena, making her my Luna is compensation enough."My legs went weak. I almost collapsed, sobbing.The monster who killed my family was right beside me all along.And the mate I loved so deeply? Our bond was a lie, built only to shield her.So I performed the Farewell Ritual, a ceremony to erase myself from the world.Only when he was about to lose me forever did Caden finally see the truth. Shattered by regret, he hunted down the real killer, begging for a forgiveness he would never earn."
