Chapter 1: Luna or Omega?

"Hurry up! Alpha is coming back! What are you dragging for?"

The pack’s Beta, Melvin Phillips, urged Della Gordon impatiently as if she was some kind of a lazy omega.

However, Della was much more than that. She was the Luna of the Blue Moon Pack and Ethan’s mate. Melvin had been Ethan’s beta for as long as she could remember.

Della didn't complain at all. She was preparing dinner with sweat all over her forehead. When she placed the last dish on the table, she saw Ethan coming in with Katie Johnson beside him.

She had been the Luna for three years, but Ethan had ignored her those same years.

Every night, when he was away, Katie would send threatening messages and intimate photos she had with Ethan to remind her.

Although the Moon Goddess had chosen her to be Ethan's mate, Ethan didn't love her.

Katie leaned against Ethan enchantingly and said, "Della, I'm so sorry to disturb you. Did you cook all these? They are so amazing. Unlike me, I'm always in poor health. Ethan cares so much about me and won’t allow me to cook."

Della pursed her lips. Katie’s appearance and words were nothing but a reminder that Ethan never cared for Della at all.

"Is it strange that a wolfhore trying to rob another’s mate can enter the house without shame now?" Della couldn’t help but utter with disgust.

Robbing other people’s mates was the most disdainful thing for werewolves to do. In the past, when the werewolves did this, they called them "wolfhore". They thought that only when they colluded with the witches could they have the ability to bewitch others' mates, and they would expel them from the pack. But times had changed. Wolfhore was no longer a severe crime.The wolves were losing their faith.

Katie pursed her lips in a grievance. "Della, don't get me wrong. It's the pack doctor who said that I am weak and need more nutrition. So Ethan takes me here for lunch."

Della clenched her fists and replied, "Katie, are we that familiar with each other? I'm cooking to fulfill my Luna's obligation to let my Alpha enjoy a good food after a busy day. What does it have to do with you?"

Ethan frowned at that and scolded, "What are you doing, Della? Is this the courtesy you as a Luna should have when facing a guest?"

"That's right. Anyway, what does our Luna can do to serve us? It’s just a meal. Why can’t we have one more person to eat with us?" Heidi, Ethan’s sister, went downstairs impatiently.

"Besides, if you hadn't intervened, Katie might have been my brother's Luna." Heidi habitually sat at the table and patted the seat beside her. "Katie, come and sit here."

Even Melvin hypocritically echoed, "Being indifferent to weak pack members is not qualified for a qualified Luna."

The ringing of Ethan's phone grabbed everyone's attention. Ethan picked it up and hung up after a few simple words.

"I have something to take care of it in the pack. Melvin, come with me."

Ethan left in a hurry with Melvin and did not even say if he would be back tonight. Looking at the two people at the table, Della lost her appetite. "I’m already full. Enjoy yourselves."

After speaking, she turned around and went upstairs. Lying on the bed, Della kept recalling the past three years. She had fallen in love with Ethan at first sight when she saw Ethan giving a speech at Werewolf University as the new Alpha. She couldn't forget the intoxicating scent she whiffed off of him. He was the mate that the Moon Goddess had arranged for her. More importantly, Della personally liked him as well.

It was her dream to be his Luna. But when it happened, all the filters were broken.

He was as gentle as she thought and dreamt about, but not to her. He was as strong as she thought but unwilling to protect her.

In order to maintain their fragile mate bond, she sacrifice everything and swallowed her pride. She did everything for the Blue Moon Pack. She did all the housework, and lived as if she was an omega. No matter how much difficulties Ethan's mother and sister gave her, she endured them all and never brought him any trouble.

She thought that as long as she tried harder and endured a little, he could see her worth. But he still took Katie to have dinner at their place without caring about her feelings.

Was he going to have her make room for Katie in the future?

She was deep in her thoughts when a knock on her door brought her back to reality.

Upon opening the door, Della was met with an aggravated look from Katie. "I'm sorry, Della. I didn't realize today was your third wedding anniversary. I came here to disturb you."

"Ethan is not here. You don't have to pretend to be pitiful." Della was not in the mood to deal with Katie’s pretense, so she instantly exposed her scheme.

Katie instantly changed her expression and snorted contemptuously. She entered Della’s room and said, "Della, if I were you, I would reject Ethan as soon as possible. He didn’t have you in his heart at all."

Della frowned and said, "Is it important? As long as I'm still alive, I'll still be the Blue Moon Pack’s Luna and his mate."

Katie looked around and sneered. "Don't be arrogant. Guess what Ethan will do if I get hurt in your room?"

Della was evident that Ethan would never believe that she was innocent. She had a bad feeling and immediately scolded, "Get out!"

"Three years. It's been too long. I don't want to wait any longer," Katie warned with a smug smile. The next second, Katie suddenly turned around, grabbed the eyebrow razor on the dressing table, and stabbed it into her belly!

"Della, I want your life." Blood oozed from the corner of Katie's mouth. She looked behind her and said, "Heidi, help me..."

In the hospital.

When Ethan arrived, the pack doctor just came out of the emergency room.

"The wound had a hint of wolfbane! The injured 's kidney has been infected and can't be cured. She must have a new kidney!"

"Della! Why are you so vicious?"

Della was pulled harshly by him, making her yelp in pain as she tried to explain. "I didn’t do it!"

Ethan threw her against the wall. "Do you mean Katie stabbed herself? How did you get the wolfbane?"

"Della! I saw it with my own eyes. Katie saw that you were unhappy and went to apologize to you. You stabbed her in your room. If I hadn't been there in time, Katie would have died!" Heidi cried.

The pack doctor was a little anxious. "The injured are in danger now!"

"You! Compensate Katie with your kidney!" Heidi suddenly remembered and pointed at her. "She is the murderer. She deserves it!"

Ethan got close to Della and looked at her coldly, "It's your fault. You should compensate her."

"Without any evidence, you already concluded I'm guilty? Alpha Ethan, is this how you lead your pack?" Della's heart ached at his assumption.

Ethan frowned and asked, "Will Heidi lie to me? Is the pack doctor also lying to me?"

Della was so angry that she sneered. In the past three years, it was not the first time that Katie had played tricks, and Heidi bullied her more than once. Ethan believed everyone but her.

"Ethan, reject me."

"Now, you know how to repent?" Ethan sneered.

Della's heart sank. "From now on, we will be strangers. Whether you choose Katie as your mate or someone else, it has nothing to do with me."

Ethan snorted. "I’ll reject you, as you wish. Before that, pay the price for your mistake."

Della looked firm and showed a very tough attitude. "Get out of my way!"

She pushed away the pack doctor and barged into the operating room.

Lying on the operating table, Katie was talking to a nurse.

"You want my life so much," Della said coldly.

"Della..."

Della slapped her with all her strength without hesitation.

"Della!" Ethan, who was catching up with her, pulled a long face.

"What? Are you afraid that I will hurt her?" Della asked in a disdainful tone.

Ethan looked at Katie and comforted her, "Don't be afraid. I won't let anything happen to you."

A successful smile flashed across Katie's eyes. "Ethan, it hurts..."

Della pressed her finger on her belly where her kidney was located and asked, "Do you want it?"

"Della, I don't blame you. If you don't want to undergo transplant for me, I won't complain," Katie said as tears fell from her eyes.

"If you want it, you have to hurt me first." Della walked towards her with a terrifying aura around her.

She lifted the sterile cloth from Katie's body, and her abdominal wound was clearly shown in front of everyone.

Ethan's face darkened.

There was only a three centimeter deep cut on her fair skinned abdomen, and it wasn’t even bleeding anymore.

Just as Della had expected, the razor was not sharp and it was too tiny. Katie was not cruel enough to hurt herself that severely.

As for the wolfbane? Katie wouldn't even touch such a deadly thing!

In the past, she cared about Ethan and didn't want to make him angry or quarrel with him. So, she just let Katie play her little tricks and didn’t expose her to him.

Now, her heart had gone cold as ice and as hard as rock. She didn't care about Ethan's feeling anymore. She would no longer allow Katie to sling mud at her.

"Katie, it's just a cut. If you want my kidney, better keep dreaming because it won’t happen." She approached Katie step by step and pointed at her wound.

"No..." Katie had never seen her like that before. She looked like a devil crawling out of hell. "I... I don't know anything. Maybe the pack doctor falsely diagnosed me. Please don't be angry."

"Really? Then I'll tear it bigger for you and let your Ethan see if your internal organs are broken." Della tightened her fingers, and the wound in Katie's abdomen instantly overflowed with blood.

Katie eyes widened and she looked at Ethan beggingly. "Ethan, help me! For Oscar’s sake, my brother, please help me."

Hearing the name "Oscar", Ethan got a little moved.

He rushed over and grabbed Della's wrist. "That's enough."

Della let go of Katie and said dejectedly, "That's enough…"

"Ethan, we've already mating. If you want to reject me, it should be in the full moon night, witnessed by Elders. Don't worry, I won't appear in front of you before the next full moon night. I won't disturb your relationship with Katie. After the next full moon night, we will have nothing to do with each other."
