After My Death , My Alpha Mate Went CrazyChapter 1

I didn't mean to wear the Goddess Pearl. It was Kaidon's precious treasure, something he found with Elara years ago. But here I was, standing in the center of the Blackwood Pack's courtyard, trembling as I felt the eyes of the entire pack on me.

I had only wanted to feel closer to him, to my mate, Kaidon, the Alpha. But now I was about to be flogged in front of everyone for it.

It had been a mistake—a horrible one. I hadn’t known that the necklace with the beautiful pearl I found in our room was the one he had meant for her, for Elara. Elara, who had returned to the pack, was everything to him. I was just the girl who happened to be chosen by the Moon Goddess to be his mate when Elara left. Now that she was back, Kaidon didn’t hide the fact that I was nothing but a substitute in his eyes.

"Kaidon, please," I had begged him earlier when he announced the punishment. "I didn’t know. I didn’t mean to wear the Goddess Pearl."

His cold, hard gaze didn’t waver. "You know what that pearl means, Luna. It was meant for Elara, the one I truly love."
