Marked by the Mafia Alpha, Wanted by My Ex”
Amara Cross sacrificed everything for her Alpha husband—taking a silver bullet that permanently weakened her wolf, enduring a pregnancy that nearly killed her, and shrinking herself for five years hoping to earn his love. Instead, she found him with his mistress and watched her five-year-old son call another woman "mommy."
Broken and discarded, she walked away from the pack that never valued her.
Three years later, Amara returns as a powerful tech mogul worth millions—stunning, confident, and untouchable. Everything her ex-husband said she'd never be.
But her carefully constructed walls face two threats: Damien, who suddenly wants her back now that she's successful, and Lucian Volkov—a ruthless Lycan mafia king who's also her second-chance mate. Lucian is possessive, dominant, and refuses to accept her rejection. He sees through her armor to the terrified woman beneath who's scared of being destroyed again.
Caught between a past that broke her and a future she's afraid to want, Amara must decide: will she let fear keep her alone forever, or will she risk everything to reclaim not just her power, but her heart? Sometimes the greatest strength is choosing to trust again.

Chapter: morning after Chapter 12: Morning AfterI woke up to sunlight stabbing my eyes. My head throbbed. My mouth tasted like something died in it. I rolled over and froze.This wasn't my room.Black silk sheets. Masculine furniture. The scent of pine and smoke everywhere.Lucian's room.I sat up fast. Too fast. My head spun. The room tilted.Then the memories hit.The gala. Damien. The drink. The heat. Oh god, the heat.My hands on Lucian's chest. My mouth on his throat. Straddling him in the car. Begging him. Touching myself. Grinding against him like an animal in heat."No no no no." I pressed my hands to my face.I looked down. His shirt. I was wearing his shirt. Only his shirt. It hit mid-thigh. My dress was gone. My bra was gone.My face burned. My whole body burned.What did we do? Did he—did we—I threw the covers off. Stood up. My legs shook. I needed to leave. Right now. Before he saw me. Before he could look at me and remember what I'd done.The window. Ground floor. I could make it.I ran to i

Chapter: breaking pointChapter 10: Breaking Point[Content Warning: Explicit sexual content, drug-induced loss of control]Lucian carried her to the car. Her body burned against his chest. Each breath she took hit his neck. Hot. Fast. Desperate.He opened the door. Started to lower her onto the seat.She shoved his hands away. Hard."Off." Her fingers clawed at her dress straps. "Get it off. Now."She yanked. The fabric ripped. Slid down her shoulders. Down her chest. Bunched at her waist.Black lace bra. Flushed skin. Sweat dripping between her breasts.Lucian's breath stopped.Before he could move, she climbed onto his lap. Straddled him. Her knees slammed into the leather seat on either side of his hips. Her bare thighs wrapped around him. Squeezed.Heat. Everywhere. Burning through his pants."Can't breathe." Her voice cracked. "Lucian, I can't—I'm on fire."Her mouth crashed onto his throat. Wet. Open. She dragged her tongue up his neck. Sucked hard enough to bruise. Her teeth scraped his skin.Her hip

Chapter: when the king losses controlChapter 10: LUCIANThe pliers felt heavy in my hand. Cold metal pressed against my palm. I walked around the chair slowly. My footsteps echoed off the concrete walls. The man's head hung low. Blood dripped from his mouth. Each drop hit the floor. Drip. Drip. Drip."The children," I said. My voice was calm. "Where are they?"He lifted his head. His left eye was swollen completely shut. Purple and black. The right eye glared at me through blood and pain. He spat. The glob of blood and saliva hit my shoe."Go to hell."I grabbed his hand. Rough. His fingers were already broken. All of them. Swollen like sausages. Purple. Black. All except one. The pinky on his left hand. Still intact. Still unbroken.I positioned the pliers around it. The metal teeth bit into his flesh. He felt it. His entire body went rigid. Tense. Waiting."Last chance," I said."Fuck you!"I squeezed. Hard. The bone cracked under the pressure. Loud. Sharp. Like a twig snapping underfoot. I pulled. Twisted. The finger

Chapter: the kiss Chapter 9: The Kiss AMARAThe drive back to my penthouse was quiet. Comfortable. The kind of silence that didn't need filling.I sat in the passenger seat of Lucian's car, watching the city lights blur past the window. My heart was still full from seeing Kai. From holding him. From hearing him say he missed me.Three years. Three years of believing I'd lost him forever. And Lucian had given him back to me in one afternoon."Thank you."The words broke the silence. Lucian's eyes flicked to me briefly before returning to the road."You already thanked me.""I know. But I need to say it again." I turned in my seat to face him more fully. "What you did today—bringing Kai to me—I don't have words for what that means to me."His hands flexed on the steering wheel. "You don't need words.""Lucian—""I saw an opportunity to give you something you needed. So I took it." His jaw was tight. Controlled. "You don't owe me anything, Amara."But I did. I owed him everything.The air in the car shi

Chapter: reconnectionChapter 8: The Reconnection Lucian sat in his car across from Riverside Elementary School, watching the building with the patience of a predator.School let out at 3:15. It was 3:10 now.Dimitri sat in the driver's seat, looking uncomfortable. "Boss, are you sure about this? Kidnapping the kid seems—""I'm not kidnapping him." Lucian's eyes never left the school entrance. "I'm taking him for ice cream. There's a difference.""Does his father know about this ice cream trip?""No.""Then it's kidnapping.""It's an opportunity." Lucian finally looked at his second-in-command. "That bastard is using the boy as a weapon against Amara. Someone needs to remind Kai that his mother exists. That she's real. That she loves him."The school bell rang. Children started pouring out of the building, a chaotic mass of backpacks and laughter.Lucian spotted Kai immediately. Dark hair, gray eyes, walking alone while other kids ran past him in groups. He looked small. Isolated. His backpack was too big

Chapter: unrevlingChapter 7: The Unraveling"I'll pick you up at seven," Lucian said as I gathered my things to leave the office.I paused, my laptop halfway into my bag. "For what?""Dinner. You agreed, remember?"Right. The dinner I'd stupidly agreed to in a moment of weakness. I'd been hoping he'd forgotten or gotten busy with something more important.No such luck."I can meet you somewhere," I said, zipping my bag closed. "Just send me the address.""No. I'm picking you up." His tone left no room for argument. "Wear something comfortable.""Comfortable?" I frowned. "I thought we were going to dinner.""We are. But not where you're expecting." He stood from his desk, buttoning his suit jacket. "Trust me."Trust. Such a simple word. Such an impossible request.But I found myself nodding anyway.At exactly seven PM, my doorbell rang.I'd changed five times before settling on a simple black dress. Not too formal, not too casual. Elegant but understated. My hair was down in loose waves, minimal makeup,
