Story: Moonlight Betrayal

When Daxton saw Orion, he became enraged again. He leapt up, intending to attack.
But Orion was no longer the wolfling to be trifled with, and Daxton was already covered in wounds from Orion’s fangs.
“Get out of my pack, or I’ll kill you,” Orion growled as he wiped the blood from his lips.
Daxton realised he couldn’t win after being defeated by Orion, so he had no choice but to leave.
In my previous life, I wished countless times for Daxton to change his mind and return to me. He had also treated me gently, making me drown in his gentleness.
Perhaps he had feelings for me once.
He would take me anywhere I wanted for my birthday. He’d fight other packs for me. But when did all of his warmth turn into this?
I couldn’t help feeling a little sad.
Perhaps Orion sensed what I was thinking. He came over and comforted me, saying, “Maybe you had to leave to meet someone better; I will always be by your side and never abandon you.”
I felt a little more at ease after hearing that.
That was correct. Those who harmed me would pay.
I turned to Orion and told him, “I want to take over Daxton’s pack.”
Orion did not object and simply smiled. “Sure. No problem. I’ll support you in whatever you want to do.”
I was touched and enquired, “Why do you treat me so well?”
Orion shook his head, helplessly. “It was love at first sight. We’re both your fated mates, but you chose Daxton. For your sake, I chose to give up and let go of my right to inherit anything as well as being exiled by Daxton. But none of that matters now. I have my own pack, and I’m going to pursue you again.”
The Whitefang Pack had already learnt that I had severed my mate bond with Daxton. His pack no longer held any value for them, so they decided to end all cooperation with Daxton’s pack.
Instead, they decided to support Orion’s pack.
Due to all of the setbacks, there were already many dissenting voices among Daxton’s pack. Other rival packs had already planned to absorb his pack.
Daxton’s status was no longer safe.
He’d been ambushed numerous times while travelling by werewolves from other packs. He even lost an ear and nearly died.
Daxton was reportedly on the verge of a mental breakdown, and they could hear him whimpering strangely at night.
Some claimed he had gone insane.
But that wasn’t enough for me. I wanted him to die in complete ruin.
Meanwhile, I worked hard in Orion’s pack, just as I had for Daxton. I quickly gained a place among the pack.
“You’re managing the pack exceptionally well. Your beauty is the least impressive of your talents. You’re a great Luna,” Orion said in awe after reading some of the plans.
Daxton would never say things like that to me. He never saw all of my efforts.
“If possible, I hope you can help me manage my pack. With your help, our pack will grow even stronger,” said Orion with excitement.
I then said, “Of course. That’s my responsibility.”
Under our leadership, the pack thrived.
