Sinopsis

Werewolf

Steamy

Arrogant

Alpha

Possessive

Contract Marriage

Twisted

Vanessa thought her life couldn't get worse-until it did. A hardworking woman from a modest background, her world shatters when her father, Jonas, falls gravely ill and their family is left bankrupt. Her stepmother and stepsister abandon them, and to make matters worse, Jonas owes an unpayable debt to Alaric Moretti-a ruthless Mafia lord who is as feared as he is deadly. Dragged into Alaric's dark world, Vanessa is prepared to fight for her father's survival. But when Alaric's mate bond snaps into place the moment he meets her, everything changes. Vanessa is his fated mate-a rare connection that Alaric, a cold-hearted monster, doesn't want and refuses to accept. To settle her father's debt, Alaric makes a horrifying demand: Vanessa must give her blood and a lung to save his dying girlfriend, Emma. Refusing to be a pawn, Vanessa strikes her own deal-she'll comply only if Alaric marries her, securing her father's treatment and her siblings' futures. It's a business arrangement, nothing more.

chapter 1
The smell of burnt toast wafted through the kitchen as I juggled Anna’s lunchbox, my coffee mug, and a pile of unpaid bills. The latter stared at me from the counter, a constant reminder of how far we’d fallen. I took a quick sip of coffee—cold, of course—before setting it down and spreading peanut butter onto the last slice of bread."Anna, come on!" I yelled over my shoulder. "The bus won't wait, and I’ve got to leave in five minutes!"Thirteen-year-old Anna shuffled into the kitchen, already wearing her oversized hoodie and carrying her tattered backpack. Her curly brown hair was in a messy ponytail, and her face looked half-awake."I'm here. Chill," she muttered, grabbing a granola bar from the counter.“Chill? I’m the one running around to make sure you’re fed and don’t miss school!” I snapped, sliding the sandwich into her lunchbox and snapping it shut. “And grab your homework this time. Last week was not fun.”She rolled her eyes but grumbled a soft “Thanks, Ness,” before stuff

chapter 2
I tried to breathe, but the air felt thick and suffocating as the black SUV rolled through the gates. The car’s interior was cold, and the only warmth came from Anna, who was pressed tightly against me, still crying. Her tiny body shook, and all I could do was hold her close, stroking her hair to calm her down, though I was terrified too. My mind was racing—my heart pounding as the realization of what was happening hit me again. Millions. My father owed millions to a man whose name was whispered in fear across the city.How the hell could he ever have come to owe that much?I looked down at Anna, her wide, terrified eyes meeting mine, and I felt like I was about to break in half. My thoughts spiraled, each one darker than the last. Where would I even get that kind of money? A quick, desperate idea flashed through my head—maybe I could sell my organs. But no, that was insane. What would I even do? I didn’t have any way out of this.There was only one thing I was sure of: I wasn’t going

chapter 3
The room was still dark, the early morning light barely peeking through the heavy curtains. I opened my eyes slowly, blinking at the sight of Anna’s face close to mine. Her small hand was resting against my arm, and her big brown eyes—still puffy from crying—gazed up at me."Vanessa…" Her voice was soft, barely above a whisper. I turned to her, brushing a strand of hair away from her face. "What is it, sweetheart?"She hesitated for a moment, her lips trembling. "Are you sure about this? The man… he’s scary." Her voice broke slightly, and I could feel the fear in her words. I took her hand in mine, squeezing it gently. "I know he’s scary, Anna. But I need you to trust me, okay? We’re going to be fine as long as we’re together." "But… what if he hurts you? Or Dad? Or me?" Her voice cracked, and tears welled up in her eyes again.I pulled her closer, wrapping my arms around her small frame. "Hey, hey… don’t cry. You’re safe with me. I promise you, nothing bad is going to happen to y

chapter 4
I stared at the high ceiling of the guest room—or should I say prison cell?—I was now forced to live in. The luxurious bedding did nothing to comfort me, nor did the plush pillows or the warm glow of the bedside lamp. None of it felt like mine. Nothing in this mansion did. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Anna’s tear-streaked face. Was she happy now? Was she settling into her new life? Did she have anyone to talk to? And then the haunting thought hit me: Was she scared? Alaric’s rules were clear—no contact with the outside world. I couldn’t call her, text her, or even write her a letter. I had no idea how she was doing, and that thought alone tore me apart. My hands balled into fists beneath the soft blanket, my nails digging into my palms as tears burned the back of my eyes. I was her sister. Her protector. And now I couldn’t even do that. The faintest sound outside my door startled me—a footstep, maybe. The guards were always there, always stationed outside like statues,

chapter 5
It had been two weeks. Two weeks of feeling like a caged bird in this oversized mansion with its golden chandeliers and silk curtains, its endless halls and polished floors. Two weeks of hearing whispers about "Mr. Moretti's business" and seeing no sign of the devil himself. At first, I had felt relieved—who wouldn’t be after dealing with the brooding man who had turned my life upside down? But now, I was angry. No. Angry wasn’t the word. I was livid. I slammed the book I wasn’t reading shut and stared out the massive window in my room. I could see the sprawling gardens below, so perfectly trimmed it felt almost criminal to look at them. Somewhere out there, my sister was in some fancy London school, and I wasn’t even allowed to call her. The door opened slightly, and a maid peeked her head in. “Mrs. Moretti,” she said softly. “Would you like tea brought up?” Mrs. Moretti. The title still felt like poison on my tongue. “No, thank you,” I replied, managing a tight smile.

chapter 6
Weeks had passed in this gilded cage, and I still couldn’t make sense of the pull I felt whenever he was near. It was like being caught in a storm, the winds tearing at me, throwing me off balance. I hated the power Alaric had over me, and yet...something in me couldn’t seem to resist it. Shaking off the thoughts, I grabbed the book I’d been reading and headed to the garden. The soft morning light spilled through the windows, and the air smelled faintly of roses and fresh-cut grass. At least the garden was mine to enjoy—it was the one place in this sprawling mansion that felt almost peaceful. I stepped out onto the stone pathway, my sore body relishing the fresh air. My muscles still ached from the surgery, but I wasn’t one to let pain stop me. I needed to move, to breathe, to find something to keep my mind from spiraling. As I rounded the corner near the east wing, I heard his voice. Alaric’s deep, commanding tone cut through the quiet like a blade. I stopped mid-step, clutch

Chapter 7
The night felt heavier than usual. The mansion, though beautifully lit and bustling with servants during the day, turned eerily quiet after sunset. It was as if the walls whispered secrets to each other in the silence, and every shadow seemed alive. I lay in bed, staring at the intricate patterns on the ceiling, trying to make sense of my life. Anna, my sweet sister, was far away. Was she safe? Did she miss me as much as I missed her? My chest tightened with the thought of her little voice calling out for me. And Alaric. I couldn’t get him out of my mind—the way his hands had held me, the heat, the sparks, the inexplicable pull. It wasn’t normal, none of it was, and yet my body reacted to him in ways that scared me. I needed air. Slipping out of bed, I pulled on a loose cardigan over my silk pajamas and wandered toward the garden. The moon was full, its silver light bathing the estate in an ethereal glow. I hugged the cardigan closer to my chest as I stepped outside, breathin

chapter 8
I woke up to a strange sensation, a heaviness in my chest that I couldn’t quite explain. My body ached, though not in the way it had after the surgery. This was different. My skin felt warm to the touch, almost feverish, and my heart was racing as if I’d been running. Sitting up, I pressed a hand to my forehead. No sweat, no chills, just an odd warmth that didn’t make sense. “Probably a cold,” I muttered to myself, though deep down, I wasn’t sure. The Moretti mansion was quiet as I wandered into the hall. I didn’t have the energy for one of my usual explorations. All I wanted was a cup of tea and maybe a good book to distract me from the weird sensations coursing through my body. In the kitchen, a maid greeted me with a polite, “Good morning, Mrs. Moretti.” I cringed. The title still felt foreign, wrong. “Good morning,” I replied, forcing a small smile. As she prepared my tea, I leaned against the counter, trying to ignore the way my heart fluttered in an erratic rhythm. W

chapter 9
It was another quiet day in the Moretti mansion—quiet in the way that made my skin crawl. The workers scurried around like mice, careful not to disturb the unspoken rules of this place. I sat in the sunlit sitting room with a book, though I’d read the same paragraph three times and still had no idea what it said. My thoughts kept wandering back to Alaric. He’d been distant, cold, and yet I couldn’t stop feeling the pull toward him. Something about him made my heart race, even though my brain screamed to stay far away. The door creaked open, and my head snapped up. One of the maids poked her head in timidly. “Mrs. Moretti,” she said, her voice soft. “We’ve prepared tea in the dining room. Mr. Moretti has a guest, and he’s requested your presence.” A guest? My stomach twisted. What kind of guest? Mafia men? Business associates? I forced myself to nod and put down the book. My body still felt off—hot and restless, like I couldn’t get comfortable no matter what I did. I followed the

chapter 10
The night was restless. I tossed and turned in the oversized bed, haunted by dreams that made no sense but left me with a lingering heat I couldn’t shake. Every time I closed my eyes, it was him—those silver-gray eyes, the sharp cut of his jaw, the way he seemed to fill the room with his sheer presence. It was maddening, and I hated it. By morning, I was bleary-eyed but determined not to let him invade my thoughts any longer. I threw on a simple dress and a cardigan, tying my red hair into a loose braid. Staying cooped up in the house only made my mind wander, so I decided to take a walk. The grounds were beautiful—vast gardens, towering trees, and perfectly trimmed hedges. It felt like stepping into a different world, one that didn’t belong to the man who seemed to thrive on chaos. My body still felt sluggish, the strange heat in my chest lingering from the moment he touched me last. I shook the thought away. I followed the gravel path through the gardens, clutching a book I’d
