Claire flinched at the sharpness of my tone, her eyes darting to the man she had been conversing with, who now regarded me with a mix of curiosity and caution.

When Claire turned to face me, I noted the way her complexion had paled slightly, yet she stood tall, her posture exuding a mixture of pride and defiance as she met my gaze with unwavering eyes. "I need to speak with you privately, Claire," I insisted, my voice firm and unyielding. As she lifted her chin, perhaps contemplating a challenge, I added, with an edge of urgency, "Now." The smile that had graced her lips tightened, and I could see the lines around her eyes deepen with tension. "Of course," she replied, her tone clipped.

Turning back to the man she had been speaking with, she said, "If you will excuse us." He nodded, albeit with lingering curiosity, before I led Claire to a secluded corner, away from the prying ears of the other guests milling about the crowded conference center. True privacy was a luxury we couldn't afford in this bustling venue, but at least here, we were shielded enough from the crowd to speak without being overheard. As soon as we reached our temporary sanctuary, I pivoted towards her, the urgency of my question spilling forth. "What were you discussing?

Why on earth would you proclaim yourself as the pack Luna?" I had my suspicions swirling in my mind, none of them comforting, but I wanted her to voice her reasoning before I launched into any lectures. Perhaps, in her mind, there was a justification for her actions. I struggled to fathom what could possibly excuse such a breach of decorum, yet I was not a man devoid of reason, particularly with the knowledge that she was carrying my child. "I do not mean it as an insult, but as a matter of pride," she replied, her voice steady despite the weight of my accusation hanging heavily between us.

"The pack can survive without a Luna for a while longer," I countered, my tone resolute. "I'm not speaking of the pack's pride," she retorted, her passion igniting with each word. "I am referring to my own. As the mother of your heir, the title of Luna should naturally belong to me, even if only out of courtesy. Yet you continue to deny me, bestowing the title upon the human instead." "The human is my wife, Amelia," I reminded her, my voice firm. "She abandoned you, Alpha. It is high time to bestow that title upon someone who deserves it. Someone like me.

To continue denying me is not only an insult to myself but to my entire legacy. It could be seen as a slight against the pack itself." My frown deepened as I openly displayed my disapproval of her words. Amelia remained my wife, my Luna, regardless of her absence from the pack's daily life. As long as I held the title of Alpha, I would never relinquish the title of Luna to anyone but her-the love of my life. "Amelia is the pack Luna, and she will remain so for as long as I draw breath," I asserted, my voice unwavering. "Does she know that?" Claire pressed, a challenging glint in her eyes.

"Because I saw her earlier, on the arm of Alpha Jake. She cannot be the Luna of two packs." A low growl threatened to escape my throat, but I suppressed it. This gathering was neither the time nor the place for disputes over pack politics, especially not in front of the well-respected pregnant female werewolf carrying my heir. Yet, even with Claire's esteemed position within my pack, she was neither my mate nor my Luna. To insinuate otherwise was a disservice to Amelia. It undermined my authority, which I could not tolerate, not even from her. "You are not my mate, Claire.

You are not the Luna of my pack. And if I hear you continue to spread these lies, I will be compelled to take action." "I do not wish to instigate a conflict," Claire replied, her voice calm yet firm. "I respect your authority. But as the mother of your heir, am I not entitled to a measure of respect in my own right? If I am not your Luna, then surely I must be something." "You expect me to create a title for you?" I asked, intrigued. If that would quell this argument, I would consider it. It would be simple enough to designate Claire as Heir-Mother or something along those lines.

Yet, as I observed her, I noticed her lips twisting downward into a frown, indicating that even this suggestion did not meet her expectations. It seemed that the only title she truly desired was that of Luna. Well, she would have to wait indefinitely for that. Before we could exchange more words, a voice broke through the tension, resonating from the speaker system. Ruby, one of the conference organizers, stood at the base of a grand staircase. At the very top, framed by the elegant architecture, was Amelia.

Dressed in a stunning black cocktail dress that hugged her form perfectly, paired with sleek black heels and a delicate sheer white shawl, Amelia took my breath away. Even from this distance, her beauty was undeniable, and I could see the way the other men in the room were captivated by her presence. My heart raced with a mix of pride and frustration as I watched her, wishing nothing more than to revel in her beauty, but my joy was tainted by the sight of Alpha Jake standing too close to her, as if he was prepared to escort her down the stairs.

"Ladies and Gentlemen," Ruby announced, her voice ringing clear and bright. "May I present our special and honored guest, Healer Amelia, accompanied by her date for the evening, Alpha Jake!" Applause erupted throughout the room, some clapping with genuine enthusiasm, while others seemed more reserved. I joined in, clapping loudly, eager to show my support for Amelia-until Claire unexpectedly wrapped her arms around one of mine, pressing herself against me as though she belonged there. As if I had invited her to be my date.

**Amelia's POV** Standing at the top of the staircase, a wave of nerves washed over me, especially in the wake of my introduction. The attention of so many eyes upon me was something I had never grown accustomed to, even during my time as Damien's wife. Back then, I had faced disdainful stares, each gaze a reminder of their desire to find flaws in me, to validate their preconceived notions with malice and scorn. But now, the attendees seemed more curious than hostile, at least on the surface, and the applause that surrounded me felt like a strange embrace, welcoming yet unsettling.

Yet, the knot of uncertainty in my stomach remained unyielding. This kind of scrutiny felt unnatural. I preferred the shadows, the quiet of working behind the scenes without the spotlight shining on me. Jake's presence beside me provided a sense of strength. "Ready?" he whispered, his voice low and reassuring. "Stay close to me," I implored, nearly clinging to his arm. "Please don't leave me alone here." "I won't," he promised, and together we began our descent down the staircase.

The crowd below became clearer as we approached, their faces a mix of intrigue and encouragement, though I still felt a twinge of anxiety. My past with the pack had instilled in me a deep-seated mistrust of large gatherings. Halfway down, my gaze locked onto Damien. He looked utterly captivating in his black tuxedo, his hair slicked back, and the sight of him sent a flutter through my chest. I yearned to run my fingers through his hair, to tousle it and remind him that he was mine, even if that ownership was now a distant memory. But he wasn't mine anymore.

That truth was glaringly evident, especially with Claire at his side. What was she doing here?! Conclusion In the charged atmosphere of the conference center, the emotional stakes had reached a boiling point. Damien's fierce protectiveness of Amelia clashed with Claire's fervent desire for recognition, creating a palpable tension that echoed through their heated exchange. As Claire pressed her claim, insisting on her worth as the mother of Damien's heir, Damien remained steadfast, unwilling to compromise the sanctity of his bond with Amelia.

This confrontation illuminated the complexities of their relationships, revealing the deep-seated fears and insecurities that lay beneath the surface. The stakes were not just about titles; they were about legacy, love, and the painful reality of shifting allegiances. As Amelia descended the staircase, the weight of her past loomed large, casting shadows over her present. The applause that greeted her felt both welcoming and suffocating, a reminder of the scrutiny she had long feared. Yet, amidst the anxiety, her gaze found Damien, and in that moment, a flicker of hope ignited within her.

Moreover, as Amelia steps into the limelight, her journey of self-discovery will deepen. Will she find the strength to reclaim her rightful place, or will the shadows of her past continue to haunt her? The chapter promises to delve into the complexities of love, loyalty, and identity, as each character must confront their own desires and the harsh realities of their intertwined fates. With the stakes higher than ever, the next installment will keep readers on the edge of their seats, eager to uncover the choices that will define their futures. Joseph King
