Sinopse

Winning Back the Wife

Bittersweet

Hypocrisy

Unattainable Love

When I went to reissue my mate certificate, the Werewolf Affairs Division told me, "Your mate certificate is a forgery. We have no record of your registration." I stared at the clerk, unable to believe what I was hearing. "But Sam and I registered five years ago. That's impossible. Could you please check again?" The clerk gave me a look before double-checking the files. "We found Alpha Sam's record. But the registered mate… isn't you." My voice trembled. "Then who is Sam's legal mate?" The clerk didn't hesitate. "Lily." I gripped the back of the chair, white-knuckled, just to keep myself upright. Until the clerk had spoken that name, I'd still held on to hope. Maybe it was a clerical error. A mix-up. But of all people, it had to be Lily, Sam's childhood friend. And suddenly, everything started to make sense. In five years of being Sam's mate, he had never marked me. We'd only held a mating ceremony—no certificate, no legal bond. I had given up everything for that ceremony, poured all my hope and love into it, believing I was his, only to find the certificate was fake. The five years I'd thought were mine—our happiness—had all been a lie, crafted and upheld by appearances. If none of it was truly mine, then there's only one thing left for me to do. Leave.

Not worth the effort, they charge an arm and leg for the novels and you can’t even complete at short story unless you pay weekly.

Chapter 1
I returned home with the fake mate certificate in hand, feeling hollow.A mate certificate was something every mated werewolf couple possessed—a symbol of legitimacy issued by the Werewolf Pack Council. It was the equivalent of a marriage certificate in human terms.But mine was a lie.I forced myself to hold it together as I approached the door to our house.Just as I was about to push it open, I heard Sam's voice inside, speaking with his Beta."Alpha, it's been five years. Are you still not going to mark Echo?"I froze where I stood, even my breath stilled.A long silence stretched out before Sam's voice responded, low and steady."Not yet. Lily's alone in the White Moon Pack. She needs me as her support—only then can she gain a foothold."The Beta didn't hesitate to remind him, "But Echo doesn't even have a proper mate certificate with you. If she ever finds out about the deception, she could leave anytime."Sam lowered his gaze. After a moment of contemplation, he replie

Sam looked at Lily with unwavering certainty."Don't worry. I won't let anyone take our daughter away."They stood close—too close. Their intimacy was unguarded, natural… the kind that only real mates shared. And in that moment, I became nothing more than a trespasser in someone else's life.I didn't move until they disappeared inside. Then, slowly, I stepped out of the car and followed them up to the second floor.At the end of the corridor, just outside an office, a small crowd of staff had gathered. Their whispers, though hushed, sliced through the quiet like silver knives."Is that the pup Alpha Sam wants to adopt? She looks just like him.""Of course she does—she's his biological daughter. I heard this was all part of the plan. Pretending she's an orphan so she can return to his side as the rightful heir.""God. Who's the mother? It can't be Echo, right?""No way. Echo can't have children. I heard she was injured as a pup—something about permanent infertility.""That's no

"Don't worry. I didn't misunderstand." My voice was soft, calm even. "You go handle the adoption paperwork. I'll wait for you in the car."Sam let out a visible breath of relief, his smile breaking free like sunlight through fog."Be good and wait for me, alright? I'll be right back."I turned and walked toward the parking lot, the weight in my chest growing heavier with every step. I passed several members of the pack. They didn't bother lowering their voices."Poor thing. She has no idea…""I heard the Alpha's been coming here nearly every day, always with Lily. And they've already registered as mates. Doesn't that make Echo the homewrecker?"Their words clawed at my back like icy talons, but I didn't stop. I didn't flinch. I just reached for my phone with trembling fingers and sent a message to someone I hadn't contacted in years.[Dad, I'm tired. I just want to go home.]It wasn't long after I got home that my father called—video, not just voice.We hadn't seen each other

Chapter 4
I had just opened my mouth to explain when Kitty's high-pitched voice interrupted, demanding to go upstairs to watch her cartoons.Sam immediately set down his fork and knife. "I'll take her up," he said, already rising from his seat.As soon as the sound of their footsteps faded and the door clicked shut behind them, Lily's tears vanished like smoke in the wind. She turned to me, a smirk curling on her lips, her tone sharp with mockery."Five years playing the part of a fake mate, Echo. How does it feel? Oh, that's right. You didn't know, did you?" Her eyes gleamed. "Kitty's my daughter."The next instant, she was gone from her seat and standing inches from me, her presence sudden and oppressive."The mate certificate Sam and I have? That one's real," she hissed. "If you have even a shred of shame left, you should leave—now. Stop clinging to something that was never yours."Before I could move, she grabbed a piece of bread from the table and shoved it against my lips."This is

Sam's POVA rush of blood surged to my head, and the world spun dizzy around me.I fumbled for my phone and called Echo.No signal. Over and over, the call refused to go through.Panic clawed its way into my chest.I seized my Beta by the collar. "How did she leave? Find out! Use every contact we have—track Echo down!"But no matter how thoroughly we searched, it was as if she had vanished from the face of the earth.Back at the manor, I sank onto the couch, hollow and defeated.So this was deliberate.She hadn't left in a moment of anger—she'd planned it. Carefully. Quietly.I shot to my feet and stormed into the master bedroom.Every trace of her was gone. Photos. Clothes. The gifts I'd given her over the years. All of it… erased.I summoned a maid and pinned her with a glare so sharp it could draw blood. "Where are her things? Why is everything gone?"The poor maid trembled under the weight of an Alpha's fury."Madam destroyed them all," she stammered. "Even the rose

I spent every waking hour searching for Echo, so consumed by it that I neglected all Pack affairs.It didn't take long before the entire Pack caught wind of what I was doing. One after another, they came to talk, to reason with me."Lily is your legal mate," they said. "And Kitty—she's your daughter, yours and Lily's by blood. Why insist on chasing after Echo? She left on her own. She gave up her place so Lily could be your Luna. Why can't you let it go?"Their words lit a fire in me. I shot to my feet, voice rising with anger. "I love Echo. As for Lily, that was out of old sentiment, nothing more. If Echo comes back, I'll strip Kitty of her inheritance without hesitation."The room fell into stunned silence. Then someone, braver—or perhaps more foolish—than the rest spoke up, doubt in their tone."You married Lily first, then forged a certificate to claim Echo. Wasn't that because you always planned to discard Echo one day and reunite with Lily officially?"The fury burst from m

The next morning, the manor's backyard buzzed with activity. Gardeners moved with purpose, their hands carefully planting moonlight roses freshly gathered from the Dark Forest. The air was thick with the scent of earth and blossoms, and the soft murmur of voices carried through the garden."These moonlight roses are stunning," someone remarked, awe evident in their tone. "Even in the Dark Forest, they're rare. I've heard Alpha Sam dotes on his mate, but this... this is beyond expectations."Another voice chimed in, laced with gossip. "You're behind the times. Everyone knows Alpha Sam has a history with his childhood friend, Lily. They even have a daughter together."A third voice added, "I heard that before Sam became Alpha, Lily left him for another pack. Only Echo stayed by his side. Now that he's Alpha, Lily's come back to reclaim her place."Their words struck me like a thunderclap.Since ascending to Alpha, respect and admiration had surrounded me. Many sought to be by my s

Lily's eyes were wide with fear, her voice trembling as she forced the words out."Sam, let me explain…"Behind her, my Beta had already unlocked Lily's phone. He pulled up her message thread with Echo and restored the photos and videos Lily had deleted."Alpha," he said grimly, "Lily sent Echo quite a few provocative messages. There are photos, too—and one deleted surveillance video."I took the phone from him, my hands tightening around it as I began to scroll.The messages were filled with venomous pride, laced with spite. One after another, photos followed—images of me, smiling gently as I interacted with Kitty, as if we were a happy little family.Every line of text, every picture, was a needle driven straight into my eyes, splinters of shame and fury burrowing deeper and deeper.But it was the final video—recorded in the manor's dining room—that drove a spear of cold ice into my chest.Lily had forced Echo to eat bread laced with wolfsbane.Wolfsbane. She'd actually done

Echo‌'s POVWord of Sam's loud, relentless search for me spread quickly—even reaching the Fangs Pack.At that moment, I was seated across from the Fangs Pack's Alpha, Tom, in the most renowned restaurant in Nomburn. This restaurant was so famous that even royalty had to make reservations weeks in advance and still wait in line.Tom was the mate my father had chosen for a political alliance. And to my surprise, he was… charming and gentle. In front of me, he was like an obedient, oversized dog wagging its tail, trying to please.I had only ever mentioned in passing that I liked this restaurant. Just once.So, Tom bought the place for me.Outright.He said it was so I could eat here whenever I pleased.It wasn't the first time Tom's wealth and influence had caught me off guard—and it probably wouldn't be the last.As he carefully cut my steak into neat, bite-sized pieces, he spoke in that casual, offhand tone of his."Echo, that Alpha with the territory the size of a sesame see

Sam's POV"Alpha, we've confirmed it. Echo is with the Fangs Pack.""The Fangs Pack?"I froze for a moment, the name landing heavy in my thoughts.That meant Alpha Tom, the one her family had arranged for her before she ever met me.He wasn't just anyone. He had power—plenty of it—in Nomburn. His lineage even included a former king. But he kept a low profile, his background cloaked in shadow. I didn't know much about him, and that bothered me more than I wanted to admit."Echo gave up that engagement for me," I said, my voice tightening. "So why the hell is she with him now?"A slow, cold unease settled in my chest.The confidence I'd clung to, the belief that I could win Echo back, began to crack. Against Alpha Tom, I didn't feel so sure anymore.But I couldn't back down—not now. No matter what, I had to try.Just as I was wrestling with the weight of it, my Beta came rushing in again, breathless, voice charged."Tom's getting married. The Marking Ceremony is in three days.
