Claimed by the Rogue Brother
He was the brother she was told to stay away from. Now, only he could protect her.
Azzianna's honeymoon should have been a dream. Instead, it turned into a nightmare. On the luxury cruise ship Northern Star, she entered her room and found her husband Julian with her best friend. The betrayal was more painful than she could bear. Julian did not love her; he only married her to steal her family's powerful land.
Hiding her tears, Azzianna ran to the cold deck of the ship. There, she met Lucian. He was Julian's older brother, a brave Alpha biker with scars and a dangerous reputation. He was the man everyone in the group feared.
To protect herself and get revenge, Azzianna made a deal with Lucian. They would pretend to be in love to humiliate Julian and take away his power. It was supposed to be a game. But every time Lucian touches her, the spark seems real.
Soon, Lucian tells her a secret: he's not pretending. He's loved her from afar for years, knowing she's his true mate.
Now, stranded on a ship full of enemies, Azzianna has a choice. Will she run from the man who broke her heart, or will she trust her "dangerous" brother who promises to burn the world to keep her safe? On this ship, the only thing more dangerous than a lie is a love that's always been destined.

Chapter: Chapter 5 — Trial of AshThe lower decks of the Northern Star were a tomb of rusted steel. Up above, the ship was a palace of glass and gold, but down here in "The Forge," the air was thick with the smell of hot oil and old exhaust. I stood at the edge of the motorcycle bay, shivering as red emergency lights flickered on and off. Every time the ship hit a sheet of ice, the floor groaned beneath my feet."The Hunters are coming," I said again. My voice sounded small in the massive room.Sloane did not move. She was the leader of Lucian’s bikers, a woman built of muscle and scars. She held a hunting knife that caught the red light like a drop of blood. Behind her, five other riders stepped out of the shadows. They did not look like the polite guards from my wedding. They looked like predators."I don't care about the Hunters, Princess," Sloane spat. Her voice was rough, like sandpaper on wood. "And I don't care about your lier husband. My only job is to keep this pack alive. Lucian thinks you are special, an

Chapter: Chapter 4The Grand Dining Hall of the Northern Star was a cathedral of arrogance. High ceilings dripped with crystal chandeliers that rattled with every vibration of the ship’s engines. Thousands of wolves in designer suits and evening gowns sat at long tables, their silver forks clinking against china. They were the elite, the "pure" bloodlines of the North, and today they had gathered for the Victory Breakfast—the public celebration of the Thorne and Silver-Bane merger.But as I stood at the heavy mahogany doors, I didn't feel like a bride. I felt like a soldier walking into a trap.Lucian’s hand was a heavy, grounding weight on the small of my back. He had swapped his frost-covered biker jacket for a clean black shirt, but he still looked like a wolf among sheep. The scars on his jaw were a map of every battle he had won, and his grey eyes were sharp, scanning the room for the Silver-Hunters we knew were hiding in plain sight."Remember," Lucian whispered, his voice a low vibration that onl

Chapter: Chapter 3Lucian’s suite was unlike the one I had shared with Julian for a few hours of my marriage. Julian’s room was filled with gold, white flowers, and soft silk. It was like a birdcage made for a pet. Lucian’s room was dark. It smelled of old wood, heavy leather, and the cold Arctic air. It felt like a wolf’s den dangerous, solid, and real. He sat me down in the middle of the large rug. I was still wearing his heavy leather jacket over my thin nightgown. I felt small, but for the first time in years, I didn’t faint. I looked out the large glass windows. Outside, icebergs floated like giant ghosts in the dark water. The ship was moving fast now, thrashing against the waves."You should sleep," Lucian said. He walked over to a small bar and poured himself a glass of dark liquid. He didn't look at me."The sun will be up in a few hours. When it does, the High Alpha will call the Elders. They will want to see us together. They will want to tear us apart.""How can I sleep?" I asked. My voice s

Chapter: Chapter 2- First LieJulian stood at the door to the deck. His face was red with anger. The ship’s Christmas lights twinkled behind him, casting long, trembling shadows on the floor. He looked down at my hand, still cradled in Lucian’s big, warm palm. He looked as if he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.“Get away from her, Lucian,” Julian whispered. He walked toward us. He tried to look strong and intimidating, but next to Lucian, he looked like a child playing.I felt fear strike me. My heart pounded in my ribs like a trapped bird. But then, I remembered the smell of jasmine and sandalwood in our room. I remembered the sight of Chloe’s hands in Julian’s hair. My fear turned to a cold, sharp blade. I didn’t pull my hand away. Instead, I squeezed Lucian’s fingers. I needed him to know I wasn’t going to run.“He doesn’t want to come with you, little brother,” Lucian said. His voice was calm, but there was a growl beneath it. He didn’t move an inch. He stood like a mountain of leather and muscle between m

Chapter: Chapter 1The Northern Star was a giant ship. It was covered in millions of Christmas lights that sparkled on the dark, cold water. To the people on board, it was a dream vacation. To me, it was supposed to be the start of my new life. I stood in front of the mirror in the hallway of my room. I fixed my silver nightgown. My heart was beating fast. Today had been perfect. I had just married Julian, the handsome future leader of the Crescent Peak pack. "Mrs. Vailant," I whispered. The name felt strange, but I tried to be happy. My family is the Silver-Bane line. We are an old and famous family, but we have lost our power. This marriage was supposed to fix everything. I walked to the door of our bedroom. I had left the party early because I had a headache. I wanted to surprise Julian with candles and a romantic room. I reached for the door handle, but then I heard a sound. It was laughter. I froze. I knew that laugh. It belonged to Chloe. She was my maid of honor. She was my best friend. We
