I am looking for a book under Rillstory about a reborn luna who was supposed to have his marking and bonding ceremony. But the groom, Dean, swapped with his twin brother, Sam, for the ceremony. In order to spend 3 months with his ex mate, Lily. I cant attach an image.

His hand struck my face so hard my vision went white.

I gasped, my head whipping to the side as blood filled my mouth. The metallic tang coated my tongue, but I didn’t cry. I’d learned long ago, tears only made it worse.

“You disgusting little wretch!” my father snarled, grabbing a fistful of my hair and yanking my head back so hard my n**k cracked. “Feeding the prisoners now? What are you, their little savior? Pathetic!”

“I—I was just trying to—”

His boot slammed into my ribs, stealing the breath from my lungs. I crumpled to the floor, gagging, my hands still bound behind my back. Pain bloomed in waves, sharp and hot, as I fought to suk in air.

“You what? Thought I wouldn’t find out?” he spat, towering over me. “I gave you shelter, blood, a name, and you repay me by feeding those caged low-life?!”

I wanted to speak. To say it wasn’t betrayal, just mercy. But there was no point. Not with him.

My father wasn’t a man. He was a monster dressed in skin, and I was just the mistake he couldn’t kill fast enough.

He knelt beside me, shoving my face into the cold floor. “You are nothing. A shame to your bloodline! I should have ended you the day you were bor—”

“Alpha! We’re under atta—!”

The guard’s voice cut in, panicked. But it was too late.

His body slammed into the wall beside us, blood spraying across the stone. His n**k had been snapped before the last word left his l**s.

The storm wasn’t the only thing breaking in tonight.

I looked up, barely a second before lightning ripped the sky apart, lighting up the woods outside like a warzone. And there they were.

Wolves. Dozens. Charging in like death had finally come collecting.

My father let out a savage snarl and snatched a fistful of my hair, yanking me off the ground like I weighed nothing. Then, without a word, he hurled me straight at the door like I was bait.

His bones cracked mid-motion as he shifted, fur tearing through his skin in an explosion of rage. One breath later, he was gone, his massive wolf form smashing through the back door like a cowering r*m.

I didn’t have time to think. Two bodies tackled me from opposite sides, arms like iron vices locking around me as I kicked and screamed.

The shock burned off fast and terror took its place.

“Restrain her,” a voice snapped, low, cold, absolutely in command.
