To the world, Chloe and Marcus Vance are the perfect billionaire power couple. Behind closed doors, they are strangers bound by a cold contract and a mountain of resentment.

Chapter: Chapter 100: The BabyChloe had been keeping a secret for six days.Not because she was afraid to tell Marcus.Because every time she tried, the words seemed too big to leave her mouth.She stood in the bathroom that morning, staring at the pregnancy test in her hand.Two lines.She had already taken three tests.All three had said the same thing.Positive.Pregnant.She slowly sat on the edge of the bathtub.For several seconds, she simply stared at the test.She was going to have a baby.Their baby.A laugh escaped her before she could stop it.Then, just as quickly, her eyes filled with tears.She pressed one hand against her stomach.There was nothing to see yet.Nothing to feel.But everything had changed.A tiny life was growing inside her.A life that didn't know anything about the world yet.A life that didn't know about their past.Their mistakes.Their families.The things they'd survived.Their child would know something different.Love.Safety.Home.Chloe smiled through her tears."Hi," she wh

Chapter: Chapter 99: The FutureOne year later.The building wasn't impressive.It didn't have marble floors.There were no security guards standing at the entrance.No expensive cars lined the driveway.No giant company logo covered the walls.It was simply a warm, welcoming place with a small sign above the door.THE NEW BEGINNING FOUNDATIONChloe stood outside the entrance that morning, watching a young woman walk through the doors.The woman looked nervous.She kept glancing over her shoulder.Chloe knew that look.Fear.Uncertainty.The feeling of wondering whether you were making the right decision by asking for help.Chloe smiled gently."You're safe here."The woman's shoulders relaxed slightly."Thank you.""Come inside."The woman nodded.Chloe watched her disappear through the doorway.Then she looked at the sign again.A year ago, she would never have imagined herself standing there.Running a charity.Helping people escape abusive relationships.Providing temporary housing.Connecting survivors with law

Chapter: Chapter 98: Marcus's LetterMarcus had never been good at looking backward.He preferred forward.What needed to be fixed.What needed to be decided.What could go wrong tomorrow.For years, that had been how he survived.Keep moving.Don't stop.Don't think too much.Don't feel too much.Because if he stopped long enough to look at the past, there were too many things waiting for him there.Mistakes.Regrets.Words he wished he had said differently.People he had hurt.People he had lost.And Chloe.Always Chloe.That morning, however, Marcus found himself sitting at the desk in the living room with a blank sheet of paper in front of him.Chloe's letter had stayed on his mind.He had watched her write it.He hadn't asked to read it.She had told him it was private.And he respected that.But her question had remained with him.If you could write a letter to your younger self, what would you say?At first, he had thought the answer was simple.Stop trying to become your father.Let people love you.Tell Chloe th

Chapter: Chapter 97: Chloe's LetterThe morning after they returned from the island, Chloe woke before Marcus.For a few seconds, she didn't remember where she was.Then she felt the warmth beside her.Marcus was asleep, one arm stretched across the empty space between them as if he'd reached for her sometime during the night.Chloe smiled.She carefully slipped out of bed.The apartment felt different now.Not because anything had changed physically.The furniture was the same.The windows still overlooked the city.The same sunlight entered through the curtains.But Chloe felt different.She was married.She had left the island.She had returned to the life waiting for her.And somehow, she wasn't afraid of it.She walked into the living room and opened the curtains.The city was already awake.Cars moved along the streets.People hurried to work.Buildings stood against the morning sky.Life had continued while she and Marcus were away.Chloe watched it for a while.Then she noticed something on the bookshelf.The jo

Chapter: Chapter 96: The HoneymoonThe island had no signal.No internet.No reporters.No business calls.No notifications.No one knew exactly where they were.And that was the point.Marcus had arranged everything before their wedding.A small private villa on a remote island, surrounded by clear water, white sand, and enough distance from the mainland to make the rest of the world feel like another planet.When their boat finally reached the shore, Chloe stepped onto the sand and stared."Wow."Marcus smiled."Good wow?""Very good wow."The villa sat among palm trees a short distance from the beach.It wasn't enormous.That surprised her.After everything she knew about Marcus's old life, she had expected something extravagant.Instead, the place was simple.A wooden terrace.A small pool overlooking the ocean.A bedroom with wide windows.A kitchen.Two chairs beneath an umbrella on the beach.Nothing more.Chloe looked at him."You planned this?""I did.""No staff?""None.""No security?""One person checks the

Chapter: Chapter 95: The WeddingThere were no cameras.No reporters waiting outside.No business magazines.No photographers trying to capture the moment so strangers could discuss it the next morning.There was no enormous venue filled with hundreds of people Chloe barely knew.There was no press release.No announcement from Vance Enterprises.No attempt to turn their wedding into an event.It was exactly what they wanted.Small.Private.Real.The ceremony was held in a quiet garden on a warm afternoon.White chairs had been arranged in neat rows beneath the trees.Small flowers decorated the aisle.There were only a few people seated.Hope.Charlie.Lena.Vanessa.Edward.And a handful of people who had become part of Chloe and Marcus's lives along the way.Their new family.People who weren't there because of money.Or business.Or the Vance name.They were there because they loved them.Chloe stood behind the doors of the small room where she was getting ready.She could hear quiet voices outside.Someone laug

Too late to want me Alpha
“Please... don't take my baby.”
Those were the last words Chloe Ravenwood screamed before her newborn son was ripped from her arms.
For years, Chloe endured life as a wolfless omega, surviving cruelty, humiliation, and endless servitude. The only light in her darkness was Ethan Blackwood—the Alpha heir who swore he loved her.
Then he destroyed her.
On the night she revealed her pregnancy, Ethan publicly rejected their fated bond, chose another woman, and condemned Chloe as a mad murderer after she was framed for her own child's death.
Broken, bleeding, and grieving, Chloe is sold to the most feared monster in the realm—the Lycan King.
Kael Draven is known as the Butcher King, a ruthless ruler whose enemies tremble at the sound of his name. But when Chloe arrives at his court, he doesn't see a slave.
He sees his mate.
As forbidden desire ignites between them, Chloe discovers a mysterious feral child hidden within Kael's castle—a boy whose haunting eyes feel strangely familiar.
Then the truth explodes.
Her son is alive.
The child she mourned for years was stolen, sold, and forced to survive unimaginable horrors while the people she trusted built their kingdom on lies.
Now Chloe is no longer the broken omega they discarded.
She is a force of vengeance wrapped in silver fury.
But when the man who betrayed her returns desperate for forgiveness and willing to wage war to reclaim his family, will Chloe choose revenge or mercy? And when saving her son's life requires tethering her soul to Ethan once more, will she risk losing Kael forever?

Chapter: Chapter 30: The Demon ChildThe shadows in the dark alcove seemed to stretch and twist, heavy with the weight of Kael’s unspoken warning.I remained frozen against the chained oak door, my heart hammering so hard against my ribs I was certain the King could hear it. His golden eyes lingered on the black padlock for a fraction of a second—a fleeting, pained shadow passing across his stoic features—before his gaze snapped back to me.He didn't raise his hand. He didn't call for an executioner.Instead, Kael raised two fingers, signaling to the dark archway behind him."Rurik. Vane," Kael called out, his voice a low, commanding vibration that cut straight through the gloom. "Remove the maid from the gallery."Instantly, the heavy, metallic clatter of iron boots echoed up the narrow spiral stairs. The two visored sentinels who guarded the tower threshold rushed into the upper gallery, their halberds drawn, their steel plate armor clanking loudly against the stone walls.When they saw me pressed against the warded, c

Chapter: Chapter 29: The Forbidden ThresholdThe heavy iron doors of the High Tower swung shut behind King Kael Draven, sealing the chamber once more in a tense, expectant silence.I immediately dropped my head, stepping backward until my shoulders pressed against the dark ironwood bookcases lining the perimeter. My fingers tightened around the worn wooden handle of my broom, my heart slamming against my ribs in a frantic, wild rhythm. I had been caught standing over his war map—a Southern servant staring at the military tokens marking the fall of her own homeland.Kael didn't draw his blade. He didn't roar for the sentinels.He stood near the center of the room, his golden eyes fixing on me with that terrifying, unreadable intensity. His gaze swept from my wide, hazel eyes down to the cedar broom in my hand, then to the clean, swept stones around the marble table.Without a word, Kael unbuckled his broadsword, setting the heavy scabbard across the edge of his desk with a dull, metallic thud. He unrolled a thick parchment scroll

Chapter: Chapter 28: The Silent SpireThe upper gallery of the Obsidian Spire was a world built for giants and ghosts.Where the subterranean kitchens were a claustrophobic nightmare of suffocating humidity, screaming servants, and black soot, the high halls were vast, silent, and bitterly cold. Lance-like shafts of pale winter sunlight cut through tall, narrow windows, illuminating dust motes that hovered in the still air like suspended snow.I carried my small wooden basket containing soft flannel rags, a brass polish pot, and a cedar broom—the lightweight tools of my new, elevated existence. My hands, coated in the cool green salve Mistress Brida had been forced to give me, no longer throbbed with the blinding agony of lye burns. For the first time in months, I could flex my fingers without my skin tearing open.Yet, as I stood at the foot of the Grand Winding Stair, my heart hammered a slow, rhythmic alarm against my ribs.Mistress Brida had not given me the brass key to the ordinary linen closets or the spice pantrie

Chapter: Chapter 27: Venom in the SculleryThe heavy oak doors at the top of the subterranean kitchen stairs slammed shut with a crack like thunder.Down in the humid, grease-stained depths of the scullery vault, thirty cooks, prep boys, and dishwashers instantly froze. The clatter of iron cauldrons and the scrape of butchery cleavers cut off in an beat of collective terror.Mistress Brida was coming down the stairs.She didn't descend with her usual brisk, loud authority. She descended like a runaway iron cart rolling down a mountain slope. Her broad face was blotched with a sickening, dark purple hue, her neck thick with bulging veins, her chest heaving violently beneath her soiled linen apron.She shoved a young spit-boy out of her way so hard he tumbled over a basket of turnips, but she didn't even stop to kick him.Her bloodshot, furious eyes swept across the vast, smoky room, burning through the haze of boiled lard and woodsmoke until they locked onto me.I was sitting on a low wooden bench near the salt barrels, my numb

Chapter: Chapter 26: The Sovereign’s DecreeMistress Brida had spent thirty years ruling the subterranean kitchens of the Obsidian Spire with an iron fist. She feared few things in this world—perhaps only the winter famine and the head seneschal’s audits.She certainly did not expect two giant Shadow-Guard warriors to appear at the door of her scullery office, their black steel broadswords clanking against their greaves as they barked her name."Mistress Brida. You are summoned to the King’s solar. Immediately."Brida’s heavy face lost all its color. She nearly dropped her brass ring of keys into the lard tub. She smoothed down her greasy apron with trembling, sausage-like fingers, her heart hammering against her ribs as she was escorted up the long, dark stairwells, out of her subterranean kingdom and into the pristine, freezing halls of the royal wing.When the massive oak doors of King Kael’s private council room groaned open, Brida felt as though she had walked straight into a blizzard.Kael stood near a high, lancet archwa

Chapter: Chapter 25: What the Scar RemembersThe silence in the Great Hall stretched like an overtightened bowstring.Kael did not step back. He did not call for the guard. Slowly, with the agonizing deliberation of a predator who knew his mere movement could shatter a creature’s nerves, the King lowered his massive frame into a squat right in front of me.His knees creaked against the dark basalt floor, bringing his face level with mine.Up close, the sheer presence of the man was dizzying. I could see the flecks of molten gold ringed around the pupils of his amber eyes, the pale line of the scar cutting through his dark cheekbone, and the faint scent of ozone and cold mountain wind that clung to his damp skin.He stared at me—really stared at me—for the first time.His sharp, analytical gaze swept over my face, taking in every fragment of my ruined state. He saw the dark, sunken shadows beneath my eyes, born of endless night shifts and nightmares. He saw my dangerously thin frame, the sharp contour of my collarbones sticking t
