Chapter 1

"I'm sorry, but we received orders from above. You've been denied entry."

Brenda Sharpe, the border guard captain, gripped my suitcase with a death-grip.

I stared at her coldly, then shifted my gaze to the man who had just been escorted onto the private VIP lane next to us.

"On what grounds does he get to skip the line while I, with a valid permit, am being kicked out?"

Brenda let out a mocking laugh.

"On the grounds that he is Julian Sterling, the Alpha heir of the Moon Shadow Pack! He said an Omega like you doesn't deserve to set foot on Moon Shadow territory. If he tells you to beat it, you beat it!"

Before I could say another word, several werewolf guards grabbed me and dragged me out of the security lane. I watched as the heavy iron gates slammed shut.

I almost laughed out loud at the absurdity.

That arrogant heir was dying of Wolfsbane poisoning.

And I was the top healer his family had spent the last three months begging on their knees to help. Today, I had finally agreed to come and save his life.

Since they wanted me gone, fine. I wasn't saving him anymore.
