My Ex chose My Twin, I Married His Billionaire Stepuncle
BLURB
Three years.
Three years of making his oatmeal every morning. Three years of waiting for texts he never
sent. Three years of smiling at people who looked at me like I didn't belong.
And the whole time, I was just a replacement for my own twin sister.
"You guys know why I went after her in the first place."
"Because she looked like Serena."
"They're twins. What did you expect?"
I heard every word through the noise of that bar. Every single one. Marco never loved me. He
loved my face because it looked like hers. And the moment Serena came back to the city, I
became nothing.
"I'm Serena. Serena Ricci. Though I'm sure people can tell us apart easily enough. There's
always a prettier version, right?"
My sister smiled at me like she hadn't just stolen my whole life from under me. And Marco stood
right there beside her, holding her hand, in front of everyone.
So I made a call I never thought I would make.
"Dad. I'm ready to come home."
I had run away from my family, my name, and the man they chose for me three years ago. An
arranged engagement to someone I once saw as nothing more than my cold, strict tutor. I swore
I would never go back.
But the night I watched Marco catch Serena in his arms while a room full of people cheered, I
realized something. The man I ran from never once made me feel like a substitute. The man I
ran to never once made me feel like enough.
"Is there something you want to say to me?"
Marco stood in our bedroom doorway, smiling, waiting for me to hand him an expensive gift.

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTY-ONEValentina’s POVI couldn’t move.The woman standing in the doorway looked like Emilia.Not similar.Not close.Exactly like her.Same dark hair.Same eyes.Same small line beside her mouth.Even the way she stood with one hand resting against the doorframe reminded me of Emilia.Dante stared at her.His face had gone completely blank.The woman smiled.“You remember me.”Dante’s voice was barely audible.“Who are you?”She looked at him for several seconds.Then she said,“Your mother.”Emilia made a broken sound behind us.“No.”The woman turned toward her.“Still pretending?”Emilia shook her head.“You died.”The woman smiled.“That’s what you told him.”Dante looked between them.“Mom?”Emilia couldn’t answer.The woman stepped into the room.“My name is Elena.”Dante stared at her.“Elena.”She nodded.“You were three years old when you stopped calling me that.”My skin prickled.Dante took a step backward.“I don’t remember you.”“I know.”“Why?”“Because they made sure you woul

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTYDante’s POV“She died.”The words stayed in the air.I couldn’t make them fit.Not after everything we’d learned.Not after four years of being told one child had died, then discovering two babies, then three, and now apparently four.I looked at Sofia.“Who told you that?”She wiped beneath one eye.“Adrian.”“Do you believe him?”“No.”That answer came too quickly.“Then why did you say she died?”“Because that’s what they wanted everyone to believe.”Valentina stepped closer.“Who is she?”Sofia looked at her.“The fourth baby.”“Her name?”“I don’t know.”Valentina’s face tightened.“You don’t know?”“I was never allowed to see her.”“Then how do you know she existed?”Sofia looked at Adrian.“Because I heard her.”The room became quiet.“You heard her?” I asked.Sofia nodded.“After they took you and the twins away, they brought me downstairs.”“Where?”“The old nursery.”I remembered the hidden room.The photographs.The fourth bassinet.The scratched-out names.“What happened t

Chapter: CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINEValentina’s POV“Hello, Daddy.”Nobody moved.For a few seconds, I honestly thought I had misunderstood her.The woman standing behind us looked to be in her mid-twenties. Dark hair. Pale skin. A small scar above her eyebrow.And the eyes.Those were Dante’s eyes.The same dark eyes that could make a room go quiet without him saying a word.Dante stared at her.His gun was still in his hand, but the weapon had lowered without him realizing it.“No,” he said quietly.The woman smiled.“You always say that.”Adrian watched him carefully.I looked at Dante.He looked as confused as I felt.“Who is she?”He didn’t answer.I stepped closer to him.“Dante.”His eyes never left the woman.“I don’t know.”The woman flinched.For the first time, the smile disappeared.“You really don’t remember me.”“I don’t.”She nodded slowly.“I knew you wouldn’t.”Adrian sighed.“This is exactly why I told you not to come here.”I turned on him.“You’ve been keeping her here?”“She chose to stay.”The woma

Chapter: CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHTDante’s POVOne hour.That was all they gave me.I stared at the message on my phone until the words blurred.YOU HAVE ONE HOUR.Then the second line.OR YOUR FIRSTBORN DIES.My firstborn.I didn’t even know who she was.Not really.I knew there had been a baby.I knew there had been a night in a hospital I couldn’t fully remember.And now someone was telling me that child was alive.My daughter.Valentina touched my arm.“Dante.”I looked at her.Her face was pale, but she wasn’t crying.Not yet.“She’s alive.”I nodded.“For now.”Carlo came closer.“Show me.”I handed him the phone.His expression hardened when he saw the photograph.“This was taken recently.”“How do you know?”“The camera.”He zoomed in.“The image is from a digital security system. Whoever took it wanted us to know they could watch her.”Valentina looked over his shoulder.“Can you find where?”“Not from this.”“Then what good is it?”Carlo didn’t answer.I took the phone back.“Saint Aurelia.”Valentina looked

Chapter: CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVENValentina’s POV“Daddy… I’m here.”The voice came again.Soft.Close.I couldn’t see anything.The lights had gone out completely, leaving the hidden room in darkness. For a few seconds, nobody moved. I could hear Dante breathing beside me and the faint sound of someone shifting somewhere behind us.Then I felt his hand find mine.“Stay close.”“I am.”His fingers tightened around mine.The little girl’s voice came again.“Daddy?”Dante swallowed.“Where are you?”Nothing.Then came a small laugh.Not frightened.Almost playful.I hated how familiar it sounded.“I’m here.”A flashlight suddenly cut through the darkness.Carlo stood in the doorway, his weapon raised.“Everyone all right?”Dante turned toward him.“Where’s the girl?”Carlo frowned.“What girl?”“The little girl.”“What little girl?”I stepped forward.“She was standing right here.”Carlo looked around the room.There was nobody there.My stomach tightened.“She was here.”“I believe you.”His eyes moved toward the hallw

Chapter: CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIXDante’s POV“Daddy?”The word stopped me.Not because I hadn’t heard it.Because I had.Too many times.In dreams I couldn’t remember when I woke up. In the pieces of memory that came to me at the worst possible moments. A child’s laugh. Small fingers wrapped around mine. A woman’s voice telling me to stay.And now that little girl was standing at the top of the stairs, looking straight at me.She couldn’t have been more than six.Her dark hair fell around her shoulders in loose curls. She was barefoot, wearing a pale yellow dress that looked too big for her. One hand held the wooden railing.The other was wrapped around a small stuffed rabbit.She stared at me for several seconds.Then she smiled.“You came back.”Nobody moved.I looked at Valentina.She was beside me, frozen.“What did she just call you?” she whispered.I couldn’t answer.The little girl came down one step.“Daddy?”This time, there was no doubt.My chest tightened.I took one step toward her.The woman standing nea

My Alpha Rejected Me Then Discovered I was Billionaire Luna
BLURB
He asked for a divorce before I could tell him I was carrying his child.
"Sign the papers tomorrow, Nora."
I did. Without a single tear.
What he never knew was that behind the quiet, obedient Luna he threw away stood a woman who owned half the empires powerful Alphas begged for help.
"Whoever he is," Kade's voice was low, rough, patient, "he's a fool."
Kade Parker found me broken on the outside. He never once flinched. He looked at me like I was something rare instead of something used up.
"I don't want the woman you think I need to be," I told him.
He stepped closer, close enough that I forgot how to breathe. "I don't want her either. I want you. All of you."
Then Damien started noticing what he threw away.
"You're mine, Nora." His hand found my jaw, desperate, undone. "I was blind. Give me one more chance."
Two Alphas. One woman done begging for love.
"You had three years," I whispered. "Now you'll watch me choose."
The war for me was only beginning, and I intended to win it on my own terms.

Chapter: Chapter twenty-twoKade's POVI counted the headlights before I counted anything else. Four sets, maybe five, sweeping fast along the river road toward the mill, moving with the kind of coordinated speed that told me whoever was driving them wasn't lost and wasn't friendly."Victor," Rachel said, already backing away from Marcus's crumpled form on the floor, her voice gone tight. "He doesn't send that many cars unless he thinks he's about to lose something he's not willing to lose.""Us," I said."You. Specifically." She looked at me, something sharp and calculating back in her eyes now, the fear from a minute ago folding itself into something more useful. "He heard the same thing everyone in that clearing heard tonight. Alpha Kade Parker, personally invested, personally motivated. A man like that doesn't let go of a threat easily, and Victor's smart enough to know it."I didn't waste time arguing the point. I pulled Nora further behind me, scanning the mill fast for anything we could use — exits, cover

Chapter: Chapter twenty-oneNora's POVFor a second all I could do was stare at him, my mind refusing to catch up to what my eyes were telling me."Marcus," I said, and my voice came out steadier than I felt, which was the only thing keeping me upright. "Damien trusts you with everything.""I know." He didn't sound proud of it. If anything, he sounded tired, the same bone-deep tired I'd heard in Rachel's voice a minute ago, before all of this went sideways. "Six years, Nora. Six years I've watched that man make decision after decision that put this whole pack at risk, and not once did anybody ask what I thought about any of it. Not once did anybody offer me anything beyond a title that sounds important and pays like it doesn't.""So you sold him out. Sold all of us out.""I evened the odds." His eyes flicked to Rachel, hard, and something passed between them that told me this wasn't the first time they'd stood in a room together working something out. "Victor offered me something Damien never did. A future that

Chapter: Chapter twentyNora's POV"Absolutely not," Kade said."It wasn't a question.""It should have been." He was already moving toward the car, jaw set, the fire still smoldering behind us casting his face in shifting orange light. "You don't walk into a meeting a scared woman set up an hour after her boss threatened to cut her loose in front of thirty witnesses. That's not caution, Nora, that's the exact kind of trap that gets people killed.""I know that." I followed him, matching his pace. "I also know she hesitated at that car door. I saw her face. That wasn't performance, Kade. I've watched that woman perform for eight months straight and I know the difference now. That was real.""Real fear doesn't mean she's not still working for him. Scared people do desperate things, and sometimes the desperate thing is handing over the person Victor actually wants.""Then come with me.""She said alone.""She said come alone or don't come at all. Doesn't mean you can't be somewhere close enough to move fast if

Chapter: Chapter nineteenNora's POVWe saw the glow before we even cleared the tree line — a dull orange smear against the night sky, low over the ridge where the main house sat, and my stomach dropped so fast I thought I might actually be sick right there in the passenger seat."That's not the main house," Kade said, eyes fixed on the road, foot already flat against the gas. "Wrong angle. That's further east.""The archive building," Elder Morrison said from the back seat, his voice tight. "That's where the records are kept. The visitor logs. The old land filings."Kade caught up to the thought the same second I did, and we said it almost together."They're burning the evidence."Damien's truck was already ahead of us on the road, taillights weaving fast through the dark, and by the time we crested the last hill before the compound I could see the whole scene laid out below — pack members running with buckets and hoses, a bucket line forming fast between the old well and the burning building, smoke pouring t

Chapter: Chapter EighteenNora's POVI stood there staring at that photograph, my own face lit up dim and blue from a phone screen, three nights ago, alone in a room I'd thought was the one safe place left to me on this entire property."Who took that," I said, and my voice came out steadier than I felt, which was the only small mercy of the night so far."Does it matter?" Victor slid the phone back into his jacket, unhurried, clearly enjoying exactly how much that image had cost me to see. "The point, Mrs. Cole, is that I've known everything you've been planning for considerably longer than you thought you were being careful. Every call. Every arrangement with our friend from Blackridge here." He nodded toward Kade without a flicker of real fear in his face. "You didn't slip past me. You were never invisible to me at all."Kade's whole body had gone rigid beside me, and I could feel the low, dangerous hum of barely restrained fury radiating off him like heat off pavement."Then it's someone in the pack," I sa

Chapter: Chapter seventeenNora's POVNobody moved for a full second after Elder Morrison said it. It was like the whole room needed that second just to catch up to what he'd actually told us.Then Damien was already moving, shouting for Marcus, for warriors, for anyone within earshot to gather at the front gate in five minutes with whatever they could grab. Elder Morrison grabbed his cane and followed at a pace that was faster than I'd ever seen from him. And Kade turned to me, already halfway to the door himself, car keys somehow already in his hand like he'd been carrying them the whole time just in case."You're staying here," he said."No, I'm not.""Nora—""I have spent three weeks being told what I'm allowed to do by every man in this pack." I grabbed my jacket off the back of the chair, hands steadier than I expected them to be given how hard my heart was slamming. "I am not sitting in a guest house while my whole future gets decided a mile away without me in the room."He looked at me for one long seco
