Episode 1

The kingdom of Greven is ruled by the last pure-blooded Lycan king, who has rarely been seen, but has managed to lead his country with authority, with rigidity, all the rules are followed in the packs without hesitation, no one dares to go against his will, because they know that doing so is a sure death.

In the kingdom is the Blue Cascade pack, where Astrid lives, the most popular girl in the pack, she has everything, friends, loving parents and a perfect boyfriend, future alpha of the Blue Cascade pack.

Her life has been so calm and undisturbed, she has only focused on her studies and on becoming the future Luna of the pack.

When she came of age, she thought she would be her boyfriend's destined mate, but she wasn't, although this didn't discourage her, since for many years, few people had been blessed by the Moon Goddess, so the engagement became formal once neither she nor her boyfriend, Leandro, were paired by the blessing of the Moon Goddess.

Everything was perfect, so perfect, that she never imagined her life would change completely.

***********

It was night, Astrid and Leandro were in the car, kissing intensely, both were too hot, Leandro's caresses desperately sought every curve of her body, her skirt had risen enough to reveal the already damp black lace fabric.

- Fuck\, Astrid - Leandro growled\, his hands moving expertly in that area\, playing with her wet center.

Astrid couldn't say a single word, only moans came from her lips, she took one of her hands to his crotch, feeling his growing erection.

- Let's go to the back - Leandro suggested.

And those words were the breaking point of the moment.

- Seriously? Back? - Astrid said annoyedly\, pulling her hand away from that area.

- Well\, a hotel - He commented\, hoping she would agree.

- No - She pulled Leandro's hand away from her intimacy. - You know we'll do it after the ceremony - She added.

That had been the agreement they had reached, when Leandro asked her to become his Luna, an agreement he regretted, as he so desperately wanted to have sex with her, to be the first man in her life. But Astrid has flatly refused to have sex before the agreed date, and that was beginning to frustrate him.

- Come on\, Astrid - He said in a low whisper\, caressing her thigh\, slowly moving up towards her intimacy - Don't you desire me? - Leandro asked\, making circular motions on her skin.

- Yes\, very much\, but we have an agreement - She said biting her lower lip\, resisting Leandro's provocations. - It won't be long\, very little time left for me to be completely yours - She approached him and kissed his lips tenderly.

- Fine - Leandro said resigned and frustrated\, pulling his hand away from her.

Astrid noticed the annoyance on his face, she felt bad for leaving him like that, but she really wanted her first time to be special and not in the back of the car or in a hotel, plus that agreement she made with Leandro some time ago seemed romantic and special, more than an agreement for her it was a promise of love.

- I'll see you tomorrow - She gave him a quick kiss before getting out of the car and entering the house.

Leandro stayed there until she entered the house, seconds later he was already making a call, that erection was a nuisance and he would need help to calm down.

- I'll pick you up - He said once the other person answered his call.

He didn't take long on the call, he smiled at having a positive answer, started the car and set off to his next destination.

***************

Astrid entered the house to find her parents in the living room watching a movie, she straightened her clothes and approached them to greet them before going up to her bedroom.

- How was the party? - Her father\, Frank\, asked.

- Perfect - She said with a big smile.

- Your dress for the ceremony arrived\, I left it in your bedroom - Her mother\, Aurora\, said.

Astrid was excited to hear that, she ran up the stairs, the dress was something she had been waiting for months, she even took great care not to gain weight, as she didn't want there to be any mistakes.

As she entered her bedroom, she saw it, her mother had left it ready for her to try on, it was on the bed, it was an ivory tone, sweetheart neckline, had an opening in the middle of the crotch, and a long fall behind.

She sighed, it was the perfect dress and she would wear it the day she became the Luna of the pack, but above all Leandro's woman, as she had dreamed for many years.

For Astrid, her life was so perfect, she didn't need anything else.

The morning came sooner than expected, Astrid got ready as usual to go to college, she was in her last year so it was important not to skip any of her classes.

When she arrived at the university she saw Leandro with Catalina, her best friend, they were too close, but for Astrid it was normal, they had known each other since they were children, she approached them very excited, she had to give them the news about the arrival of her dress and that it looked spectacular on her.

- Hello! - She said excitedly\, hugging Leandro from behind.

Leandro tensed at her arrival, Astrid turned her gaze to Catalina, she didn't seem happy to see her either.

- What's wrong? - Astrid asked\, confused by their serious looks.

- Nothing - Leandro replied immediately - You look beautiful - He said giving her a kiss on the forehead and passed his hand around her shoulder.

- Thanks\, what's wrong with Cata? - She asked\, seeing that she still didn't say a single word.

- It's nothing\, hormonal problems...- She said with a forced smile - I have to go to class - She added before turning around and leaving without letting them say goodbye.

Astrid was surprised by Catalina's answer, but preferred not to say anything more, to continue her wonderful morning with her beloved boyfriend.

- My parents\, want us to have dinner with them today\, does that sound good? - Astrid suggested.

Leandro looked at her and nodded.

- What's wrong? - She asked\, she had known Leandro for many years\, not only as boyfriends\, but also as friends.

- It's nothing\, let's go to class - He said and started walking with her.

**************

In the royal palace of Greven, the king was lying in his elegant office chair, his clothes were disheveled, as if he hadn't slept in days, a thick goatee beard, his eyes were closed, his breathing was agitated.

- Majesty\, the ceremony of new alpha and Luna of the Blue Cascade pack\, will be next week - His beta said while checking the agenda from his device.

- Fine - He said in a low whisper.

- Are you planning to go? Or will you stay on the sidelines as usual? - His Beta asked again.

The king never attended events of that kind, not because he didn't like them, but because, given his years without a destined mate, he preferred to stay away from civilization because his lycan was too possessive and hated being surrounded by people, he didn't want to feel any scent that wasn't that of his mate, a mate that the king himself thought would never exist again.

- I'll go - He said resigned\, he could no longer stay hidden\, nor away from his kingdom. He had to start living without a mate and his lycan had to do it too.

- Perfect\, I'll organize everything - His beta said and without further ado left the office.

The king remained in his chair, thinking about the heavy last nights he had had, his lycan was powerful, so much so that it was beginning to hurt him, the hope of finding his mate was beginning to be a simple dream, the Moon Goddess had abandoned them a long time ago and it was their fault, many times they denied her blessing, rejecting and hurting their destined mates. They did not deserve her forgiveness.

But he, was one of the few wolves who wanted to have that blessing, to find his destined partner and turn her into his queen, the mother of his pups and before the only one he could kneel and behave as docile and tender as a puppy.

- Where are you? - He whispered heavily.

***************

The day of the ceremony finally arrived, Astrid was so excited that she couldn't sleep all the previous night, she got up very early to arrange the last details.

The ceremony would be during the night when the full Moon was at its maximum splendor, in the sacred lake of the pack, there all the ceremonies had been held for many years, and it was a sacred ritual for everyone.

Her parents were as excited as she was, their little and only daughter would become Luna of the pack and that filled them with pride, even though they were simple wolves without any high rank.

- Astrid\, you should rest for a while - Aurora said entering the bedroom - What's wrong? - She asked seeing that Astrid didn't stop looking at her phone and seemed annoyed.

- Leandro is not answering my messages - She complained and looked at her mother.

- Come on honey\, he must be busy - She said - And you have to rest - She took the phone away from her\, she knew perfectly well that her daughter had not slept all night and needed to do it at least for a few hours.

Astrid reluctantly obeyed her mother, lay down to get a few hours of sleep, thinking about how wonderful her life would be after that night.

**********

And so the night arrived, that night when Astrid's life would change forever, without even imagining it.
