LOGINBlurb Wrenna grew up invisible—unwanted by her family, overlooked by her pack, and treated like she was nothing more than a mistake that breathed. But she had one secret. Prince Mark. Her lover. Her promise. The man who swore he would choose her at the Pack Partner Ball and make her his bride. Instead, in front of the entire kingdom, he chose her sister. And then he destroyed her. Humiliated, exposed, branded impure, Wrenna is publicly cast aside as worthless—until a masked stranger steps forward. A man feared by kings. A ruler from a distant kingdom. A beast wrapped in power, mystery, and danger. “I will marry her,” he says. Taken by the very man everyone fears, Wrenna is thrust into a world darker and more dangerous than she ever imagined. But beneath the mask lies a man who sees her… desires her… and claims her as his own. She was rejected by the prince. But the Masked King chose her. And he never lets go of what belongs to him.

Her eyes already scanning Astrid’s dress with approval. “You missed so much! Come on! Prince Mark is about to choose his future bride!”Astrid gasped like she had just been told she missed a royal coronation. “Are you serious? Oh, I cannot miss this!”Just like that, the two of them rushed off, leaving me standing alone.Wait.She missed a lot? I suddenly panicked.I didn’t waste another second. Lifting the edges of my gown, I ran inside, going through the crowd like a woman on a mission. I didn’t have time to admire the big castle, the chandeliers, or the way the whole place smelled of expensive perfumes and wealth.I needed to get to the ballroom. Now.By the time I finally reached the big ballroom, my heart was beating so fast I thought I might have a heart attack.And then I saw him.Mark.Standing on the stage, tall, confident, and unfairly handsome.
Feeling beautiful wasn’t exactly something I was used to. Most days, I barely even felt seen. But right now? As I stared at myself in the mirror, it was like I was looking at a completely different person.My lips parted slightly, my fingers brushing over the fabric of the dress. Was this really me? The way the deep wine red color hugged my body, it was perfect. For the first time in forever, I actually looked like someone worthy of being chosen.Then..BANG BANG BANG!“Are you coming out or what?” a voice said from the other side of the door.I flinched, my moment of bliss instantly disappearing.“The carriage is leaving soon, and I am not about to get scolded because you can’t hurry up!” the maid shouted, obviously annoyed.I let out a sigh. It’s fine. Just ignore it. Nothing is ruining tonight.I gave myself one last look in the mirror, smoothing down the front of my dress before standing tall.“Let’s do this,” I said as I stepped out.Unfortunately, my timing couldn’t have been wo
“The annual Pack Partner Ball… This is it. The moment Prince Mark realizes I am his perfect match and chooses me as his bride!” Astrid said dreamingly.I barely stopped myself from rolling my eyes so hard they would fall out of my head. Instead, I kept my mouth shut, silently suffering through the sound of my sister’s infuriating voice.I didn’t dare say a word, not while Astrid sat there, getting pampered by a group of maids who powdered her face like she was already royalty. Meanwhile, I was stuck making sure Astrid’s bed was neatly arranged, as if that was somehow part of my grand duties as the lesser sister.The annual Pack Partner Ball was the biggest event of the year. The night all eligible bachelors, especially the Alpha’s son, chose their future brides from the many hopeful women in the pack. It was basically a high-stakes auction, except instead of bidding, men just picked a woman and that was that.And if you weren’t picked? Well. That was a nightmare for all women. Public
“How am I supposed to find a white moonflower in the middle of the night?” I grumbled, shoving a branch out of my way. It snapped back, nearly hitting me in the face. “Damn it.”The cold was almost too much for my body to handle, and the wind howled through the trees like it was laughing at my misery.I pushed forward, boots sinking into the muddy ground, the sound of snapping twigs only added to my fear. If something was hiding in the shadows, I was making it really easy to find me.“Astrid, you witch,” I muttered under my breath. “If I don’t freeze to death out here, I swear I will put poison in your food.”Not that I would ever actually do it. No matter how much I hated my sister, I wasn’t a killer. Just a fool. A fool wandering through a dark thick forest because Astrid had ordered me to.My stupid sister had sent a maid to wake me in the middle of the night, ordering me to find a white moonflower and I wasn’t allowed to return home until I did.I had no choice but to obey because
