MasukMaddy thought marrying her fated mate and flying to Greece to start a new life would fix everything. All she wanted was a perfect life with De-Shawn—far away from Alpha Rowan J. Grey, the man she discovered was also her mate. That was impossible. A werewolf could only have one fated mate—unless one died. Second-chance mates don't happen while both are still alive. Yet here she was. Both of her mates are alive. “Let’s go to Greece,” De-Shawn said the night he slid the ring onto her finger. Maddy wasn’t sure, but running felt safer than staying. Because Rowan couldn’t be her mate. He was married. He had children. Worse—he was her godmother’s husband. She escaped to Greece, hoping distance would weaken the bond forming between her and Rowan. Hoping marriage would save her. But It didn’t. Her fated mate destroyed her life; he killed their unborn pup, stripping her of everything she owned, and forcing her into a conservatorship. Left with nothing and on the verge of spending six years in rehab as a mentally ill patient, she turns to one person. One person she shouldn’t turn to, one person from whom she should stay far away.

She could feel the panic radiating from her.She recalled what the man had just said: only two people had such a card around— the Alpha and his Beta. Who, then, was her boss? Was it the Alpha or the Beta? She thought to herself, her gaze never leaving Madison.The last she checked, Maddy had told her she didn’t work for the Alpha. So it had to be the Beta, or was she lying about who she actually worked for?She stepped closer to Maddy. “Tell them it’s your boss who gave it to you. Why the hell are you quiet?”Maddy glanced at her, but said nothing.Her head was clouded with thoughts of how to navigate this situation without mentioning Alpha Rowan's name. The pack was small, and news spread like wildfire here. If she called his name, rumors would start to brew.How would it look for her to be frolicking with the husband of her godmother just a few months after her death? She’d become the poster girl for a gold dig
We unloaded everything onto the counter. It took the cashier a few minutes to scan through all the items we had picked, from clothing to groceries.“It’s a total of $59,550, miss,” the lady said with a soft smile.“Cash or card, miss?” she asked.“Card,” I replied, taking out Rowan's limitless card and passing it to her.She took the card and stared at it for a few moments, deep lines forming on her forehead.She turned to me. “Please, miss, where did you get this card from?”I blinked a few times, feeling the tension rise. “Why do you ask? Is there a problem with the card?”She shook her head. “Not really. I'm just curious as to where you got the card. Is it yours?”“Yes!” I answered firmly. “It belongs to me. Please slot in the card and take your money; we don’t have the whole day here.”Unease washed over me as I noticed the way she was scrutinizing the card. She flipped it back and forth, her eyes shifting between it and my face as if she were preparing to ask more questions.“Is
MADDY'S POINT OF VIEW.De-Shawn straightened, his jaw tight and expression hard.My heart raced in my chest, and my hands started to tremble as I silently prayed that this wouldn't escalate further.His eyes darted from Vanessa to me. “Who the hell is this lunatic?”“Lunatic?” Vanessa chuckled. “The only lunatic here is you, who refuses to move the hell on from your ex!”The words felt like a slap across his cheeks. He glanced around, ensuring no one had heard.He smoothed his shirt, his eyes scanning the mall before finally fixing his gaze on us. “Maddy, you're making a mistake, and this will blow back hard on you,” he warned.Vanessa hissed and turned to me. “Are you okay? Did he hurt you anywhere?”I shook my head. “No, he didn’t. I’m fine. I think we should just leave, Vanny.”“No, we’re not leaving!” she said firmly, turning back to Shawn. “The only person that needs to leave is this asshole!”De-Shawn scoffed. “Who the hell is this stupid brat?”“Maddy, who is she? What’s her b
The moment I saw De-Shawn, my breath hitched in my throat, and I silently prayed for the ground to tilt just enough for me to disappear from his sight.Why the hell do I have to see him every time I turn a corner? It's clear the universe hates me.Before I could take another step away, De-Shawn was already in front of me.“What are you doing here?” he asked, blocking my path.I swallowed hard, steadying my voice. “That's none of your business.”“This is a shopping mall. If you came to shop, then I’d advise you to go back and do just that. What I’m doing here has absolutely nothing to do with you.”He glanced around, then leaned in closer. “Where did you take him?” His tone dropped, and fear gripped me.“Where did you take him to, Maddy?” he pressed. “I honestly don’t want to make a scene here, so please don’t force my hand.”“Quietly follow me to the car and take me to where you kept your daddy.”A short laugh bubbled out of me before I could stop it. I turned to him, raising my chin
