Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

Chapter 5 AURORA FIVE YEARS LATER Ann Reed is dead .

Im Aurora DeVere , now , and Aurora DeVere is on the rise .

After years of suffering , I was on the path to being Luna of one of the most powerful packs in the world .

All I had to do to get there was face Dane Montague … and hope I survived .

Because if I knew him , he would want me dead more .

than ever .

Once they realized who I was once they informed me of my true identity as their heiress I was whisked away .

I thought the Council would force me to go back to Dane .

But Augusta DeVere , my biological grandmother and Luna of the Alpine Pack , was one of the heads of the Council .

The former mercenary was a bear of a man .

He was my assistant , bodyguard , and my choice for beta when I took over as Luna of the High Alpine Pack .

Trajan , I said .

My voice was smooth , crisp .

Just like my cream colored suit .

The man gave me a somber smile .
