For Camilla Castello, her deepest desires were simple—love and acceptance. When her family favored her seemingly flawless elder sister, she sought solace in her ideal mate, only to endure betrayal as he cheated with the favored sibling. Amid nursing a wounded heart, she became a substitute bride for her sister, forced to marry the incompetent Werewolf Prince, scorned by the King himself. Despite lacking choice, she trusted him, bore his child, and discovered a hidden, redeemable side beyond rumors. Her role, however, reduced to a mere breeder, her family and Pack mere pawns in the King's game. To escape these monsters, she fled with her unborn child, vowing to return for revenge against the Royal Pack. Yet, the unexpected entry of genuine love complicates her path. The prince was back in her life, and so is another, both offering their hearts. Now, faced with the choice between risking all for love or joining forces with a newfound alliance for revenge, Camilla must navigate a complex web of emotions and decisions.

Chapter 1

1; His Substitute Bride.

Camilla Castello.

“I, Beta Garret Winslow, reject you, Camilla Castello as my fated mate.” His eyes stared dead into mine, his voice unwavering.

I swallowed down a lump, my hand curling by the side. I managed to voice out a response, my voice surprising coming out stronger than I feel internally. “I, Camilla Castello, daughter of Alpha Derek Castello of BloodHound Pack, accept your rejection.”

I promised myself it wasn’t going to hurt, that I was going to suck it up and even be the one to utter those words, but he beat me to it. The fuckard. As if he wasn’t being an ass enough, he dared to stretch his hand and my sly snake of a sister, Anna, stepped into his arm, snuggling close to him, sporting a wicked grin.

She clearly enjoyed seeing me in pain, no doubt. She’s always been like that for as long as I can remember, ever since we were kids.

She particularly seems fond of making my life hell, she just enjoys it to no end.

But, I never thought she’d grow up on that very habit, and I never thought she’d take it as far as sleeping with my mate. I wouldn’t have believed it honestly if I didn’t see them with my own two eyes, and I could remember hearing my heart shatter into pieces.

I’ve known Garret since we were kids, we practically grew up together. His father was my father’s Beta, before he came of age and took over following his father’s sudden demise.

We have always been close, compared to he and Anna. The two of us had more things alike, while Anna was too caught up by the glitz and the glam that comes with being the Alpha’s eldest daughter—and I, his youngest daughter.

It didn’t come much as surprise to us when we turned 18 and realized we’re actually mates. We were the perfect mates, or so everyone else said. Even my parents came to accept it, because there couldn’t be a better pair than the two of us.

I don’t know at which point Anna took interest in him, and he in her, or how long it’s been going on but well, they ended up in each other’s arms and I happen to walk in to them.

Believe me, I wanted to reject him first but rejection isn’t an easy thing, my wolf and I were hesitating. I knew I wanted nothing to do with a cheater, but it doesn’t make it any less hard.

He beat me to the rejection though, the very next day. I’m honestly surprised by how easy it came to him. But, it wasn’t the only thing that came as a surprise to me.

“Camilla, you are to marry Prince Adrian in the place of Anna.” My father, Alpha Derek declared later that day.

I looked up, my hand halting the action of playing around with the food on my plate as I focused my gaze on him. “What?” I can’t possibly be hearing him correct, right?

His expression as dead serious though. His eyes, cold as I’ve always known them to be stared back into mine. “You will marry Prince Adrian.” He repeated, “Anna has backed out, and we can’t break the promise by handing over no bride.”

I blinked, my mouth parting as I stared between him, and then to my mother, Luna Bree whom sat beside him, calmly eating her food as if she is unaware of what’s going on. I know she is though; she just chose to ignore it unless it concerns Anna.

I’m the least favorite child in case you haven’t realized.

I’ve grown to accept that as well—that for some reason, they weren’t particularly fond of me despite being their daughter as well. There’s no qualm there, I share similar features with my father.

They don’t physically abuse me though, mentally I can’t say so. I just learnt to grow a thick skin to it, until I feel like I no longer could.

“Wasn’t it agreed that she will be the one married to him?” Arranged royal weddings weren’t new to the Alpha families across the Werewolf Kingdom. Even my mother and father were arranged. It’s norm really—I am the one that managed to escape…or so I thought.

I didn’t realize losing my mate to my sister—which they haven’t said a word about by the way, would result to me ending up as the scape goat.

“Well, yes, baby sis…” Anna’s voice came before she made an appearance, stepping into the dining room, sporting the widest grins out there. She came to sit beside mom, her gaze fixed on me. “…but I can’t marry someone like that, you know.”

“Someone like what?”

“Someone that’s useless, ugly, and disliked by the King—his Uncle. I mean, he’s not even the King’s son.” Anna snorted, shaking her head. “You know; the rumor says it all.”

I swallowed thickly, my hand fisting by the side. “You’re too good to marry a loser, but I can?” I gritted out, trying hard to tame down my anger. To say I’m annoyed would be an understatement. “He’s a nuisance, a worthless one.”

I know what the rumors say, the Prince is known to be a pathetic fool and a total loser—everyone knows that. All he does is party, spend nights with various girls and fool around, nothing more than that. No one in the royal court respects him. That much is obvious.

I don’t consider myself to be someone special, or someone that deserves to be with someone of a high position or anything, but at least, I know I’m better than ending up with someone like that.

And yet, they would willingly hand me over to him.

“Last time I checked, you’re one as well.” Anna threw back, quirking a brow that dared me to claim otherwise. “You never do as you’re told, and you’re never good at anything other than starting fights. The only good thing about you was your mate…oh sorry, the mate that rejected you.”

My hands curled into a tight fist, my teeth gritting. “You shut your mouth, Anna.”

She ignored my words, feigning a deaf ear to it. “You two are match made in heaven really. You’re the perfect bride for him.”

“You don’t have a choice.” My father’s voice came, putting an end to mine and Anna’s impending argument.

I hesitantly shifted my gaze from her, and fixed it on him, disbelief no doubt clouding it. I know I’m not loved by them, but why are they willingly handing me over like that?

Anna didn’t have a problem with it before, no doubt having the glitz of becoming a royal cloud her vision till she decided she wants my mate instead.

“But, Dad…”

“This engagement is based on a treaty, and you know that.” Of course I do. I may not be involved in Pack politics like my sister, or elder brother—Alex, set to become the next Alpha, but I know stuff as well. “Our Pack needs this, and the fate of our pack and family as a whole depends on this.”

I blinked, looking away.

He continued, regardless of my silence and obvious disagreement. “Do you want to prove yourself to me, that I gave birth to a child I should be proud of not some nuisance. Do you want to be accepted and recognized by I and the whole Pack, do this for us?”

I know he’s guilt trapping me, I know that well enough.

But, I still gave in.

“Fine.” I gritted out. “I’ll marry the useless Prince.”

2; The Useless Prince.
Adrian Moretti.“Oh, Adrian.” Moaned the red haired chick I’m with. I think her name’s Natalie or something? I can’t really recall. She’s not a bad lay, just not a good one as well. I growled, feeling myself about to come undone. Just then, I felt the mind-link open, and the familiar voice of my closest associate came. “My Prince,” Caleb’s voice came, his tone emotionless, as always. “What is it?” I grunted, my eyes flicking close…just a few minutes away. “The Vizier is approaching.” He announced, as he was standing guard outside. “He’ll be here in five seconds max.” I hummed in the mind link, before closing it. I thrusted harder into the red haired chick, and her moans became louder, no doubt bouncing off the walls of the room and resonating outside. I could hear the man’s footsteps, and just like Caleb predicted, it took him exactly five steps to come standing in front of the room. “Prince Adrian,” The old Vizier’s voice permeated past the double doors of the room, the judgi

3; Princess in training.
Camilla Castello.“Take care, Kiddo.” Alex was the only one in my family who bid me farewell, and I could still remember how warm his smile felt. It was the only thing that kept me together. “If anything goes wrong or you feel like you can’t handle it, give me a call, and I’ll come through for you.” I could only nod, then offer him a hug that I had to pull back from, against my will. “I will.” I whispered, knowing Alex is the only one in my family I can count on. The others were nowhere to be seen, as if they couldn’t care less that I’m being sent halfway across the country to marry a useless, playboy of a Prince. “You better get going.” Alex gestured to the awaiting car. “Give me a call when you get there, so I can know you’ve reached there safely.” I couldn’t reply, knowing I would breakdown if I do so I got into the car, and offered him a small wave. I was taken to the airport, where I took a flight to Granada, where the Royal Werewolf Pack is. With its low population, it was

4; Mine.
Adrian Moretti. “She’s hot.” I muttered under my breath, watching as my so called bride trained along with a warrior she-wolf out in the lawn. They were sparing, meaning she’s dressed in a half vest and tights that hugged her body, leaving her assets out for me to see. I felt blood rush down there. Fuck, I’ve been feeling that way since she arrived and I first laid eyes on her. She’s been here for about two weeks I think, and not a day comes where I don’t get a glimpse of her, I just choose to avoid her sight till I figure out what to do with her. “Does that mean you accept her as your Princess?” Caleb inquired, and though his tone was bare of any emotion, I knew he was hopeful I’d settle down with this she-wolf. “Don’t be ridiculous.” I waved him off almost instantly. I meant it when I said I’m taking no bride, especially not her. “She’ll be a good lay though. That’s for sure.” I wouldn’t mind getting her in my bed. She should be of some use. Besides, I need to get her out of sys

5; A mere pawn.
Camila Castello. The more I got to know Adrian, the more my regret for that night dissipated. I hated myself at first for it, for giving in so easily but there was this pull I felt towards him I couldn’t explain, and no, it wasn’t just the full moon that made it possible. He’s been nothing but kind to me though, no longer avoiding me like the plague. He acts like the perfect fiancée during the day, and fucks me thoroughly through the night. I think I’m even falling for him if I’m being honest. How can I not? He’s everything but that which the rumors of him. I know that now. ‘Can’t wait to see you walking down the aisle. Happy wedding day, Princess.’ A smile made its way on my face as I read the message he had attached to the flowers he had delivered to my room. It’s finally our wedding day, and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t as excited as I’m nervous. I have him though, I know it’ll all be well. “Lady Camilla.” I looked up, just in time to see one of my attendants walk in.

6; Red Eyes.
Camila Castello. “Shift back,” My wolf, Maya, said in my head as I ran as fast as I can away from the Pack, my paws digging deep into the soil, before I leaped and ran further. She’s been prodding the back of my mind, trying to get through to me since I shifted a few minutes back but I’d put up a mental block, keeping her out. Somehow, she managed to get past it, the desperation behind her intention giving her the power to get rid of my mental block. And the minute she did so, those two words were the first thing she said. Even in my hazy state of mind, and although I was fully planning on tuning her out, her words still registered I my mind. “Why?” I asked, with a sniff. My heart burns, it hurts so much that I feel a though I should pull it out. The last thing I wanted was to interact with her, or anyone else for that matter. It was taking everything in me to not fall and cry my heart out, because I was in too much pain. I’m in pain for losing my parents, my pack, and my life as

7; Cassain.
Camila Castello. The distant sound of water reached my ears, the kind that you hear from lakes or waterfalls. The scent of nature filled my senses, the kind that makes one feel relieved from the inside, calming your senses and fill you up with unparalleled peace that can’t be gotten anywhere else aside from nature itself. Then, I heard the sound of birds chirping, the sounds becoming a bit clearer I contrast to the earlier slightly muffled sounds I heard. I released a deep breath, rolling to my side, in an attempt to pull my pillow close to me and continue with my slumber. Except, there was no pillow in sight, and the action of turning around made me feel the warm rays of sun casting its glow on my face, making me stir awake. Another small breath escaped my lips as I peeled my eyes open, instantly coming to sight with the sky above, and with the sun glaring down at my face. It wasn’t scorching or anything, it’s just the right amount to stop one from falling back asleep. I flicked

8; Awfully Intertwined.
Camila Castello.“You’re a rogue.” He stated, with no air of questioning surrounding his tone. He sounded as if he knew what he was saying. That he is certain of what he’s saying. His eyes narrowed slightly, never leaving mine. “Became one not too long ago.” I got over my initial shock, my lips slanted into a humorless smile. “Well, geez. Thank you for stating the obvious, I didn’t realize I’ve gone rogue.” The words rolled off my tongue without me thinking twice—a bad habit of having a sharp tongue and witty responses at the very tip of it, one that would get me killed sooner rather than later. It’s quite obvious he wasn’t impressed by my response, because he was silent for a few seconds, his brow arching slightly. “You’re pretty daring.” He commented, though his tone was blank so I couldn’t tell whether he was amused by the fact or not. “You have an awful sharp mouth as well.” “Thanks, I’ve heard that a lot.” What is wrong with me? I’ve always had a response, always so 99 percent

9; Save me, Cassain.
Camila Castello. He held my gaze for a short while, his red irises scrutinizing me, while his lips were set into a straight line. From what I’ve gathered on him, he’s not exactly an open book. He keeps his emotions in check, masking them away under veil one can’t see past. Even those few emotions he’d allowed to be on display, they are never truly from deep within, at least, not entirely. Yet, as he held my gaze, his hand still keeping a firm hold on my neck, I could somehow tell what was going on in his mind, or so I hoped. He was vetting me, trying to see if my words genuinely came from my heart, that I do believe he won’t hurt me or I’m just putting on a façade to appear strong. The truth is though, it’s the former. I do not believe he would kill me. I just know he won’t. At least, not at that very moment. Not so surprisingly, though we really need to figure out how this mind hearing thing would work, he heard what was on going in my mind. For the nth time since we crossed pat

10; Role Play.
Adrian Moretti.“I’m sorry, but you can’ see the Prince at the moment. He’s currently…occupied.” Caleb’s voice came from the other end of the door, fending off the visitor there. A moan came from the room, confirming his words. A high pitched voice, belonging to one of the harems as she moaned my name. “Oh, Prince Adrian! Yeah…just like that, yeah…right there, Oh My!” A heavy sigh escaped my lips as I carried on with my current task at hand, pushing myself further, slowly making my way towards my reach, my breathing heavy. One after the other, I hastened my action. Just a few seconds…I’m nearly there. Another moan came from the harem, matching my speed, her voice becoming louder I’m certain everyone within that mile radius could hear her. “Oh, yes, I’m close, I’m so close!” Silence ensued from the other side of the room, before the voice of the unwelcomed guest came. “It appears so.” Klaus’s gruff voice came, not holding any suspicion or anything. He tried to keep his tone monoton
