Chapter One

IVARA The white silk of my wedding dress felt like a shroud, cinched so tight I could barely draw enough oxygen to say 'I do' I stood at the altar of the Lunar Cathedral, my palms slick against the stems of white lillies that somehow smelled suspiciously like a funeral. Standing in front of me, Lucian, the golden boy Alpha with a smile as straight as his moral compass, he looked at me like I was a rare steak he couldn't wait to consume. This wasn't about love. It was an acquisition. My pack was drowning in debt and a plague that turned our strongest warriors into wheezing shadows and I was the payment. A white wolf who's also a blood healer. Quite the fancy catch. "You look breathtaking, Ivara," Lucian whispered, his hand reaching for mine. I didn't smile back. "It's the corset, Lucian. I'm literally not breathing at all," My eyes scanned the crowd, searching for one person. "Where's my father?" "He's out in his study," Lucian replies, "he sends his apology, but pr

Chapter Two

IVARA TWO YEARS AGO "Ivara, I need you at the palace immediately.. You're wasting time!" My father barked, grating on my last nerve. He's literally in my room, and he's shouting like he's miles away. "I'm coming, father!" I groaned, shoving one last hairpin into my mess of a bun. "Could you hurry up?!" "Mind you, you're the one who told me to look my best for this parade! I'm literally trying, so can you let me be?" I snapped back, my patience wearing thin. He huffed, his hand tightening on the doorknob. "You have ten more minutes." With that, he left, slamming the door shut with a finality that made my teeth rattle. Fucking hell. Like I even wanted to be there. Getting married to the golden Alpha King, Lucian, sure wasn't on my list of life plans. I turned back to face my mirror, hoping that I looked a bit undone so Lucian would at least discard me. Just as I picked up another hairpin from my drawer, my eyes drifted to a small portrait on top of the drawer. I picked it up, a h

Chapter Three

IVARA The air left my lungs in a cold rush, I slowly sank back into the bed. My father...he wouldn't... He was desperate but to sell me to humans? To be harvested? Was the wedding really a sham? "You're lying," I growled, my nails digging into my palms as tears threatened to blur my vision. "My father would never do such a thing to me!" "Why do you think he came back to you, Ivara?" He asked, leaning in closer. "Your mother died, yet he never cared. Until one day...boom, he suddenly appears. I never lie to what's mine, Ivara," "I don't believe this, for all I know this could be a sham! A lie just to use me against them! How can I trust a dead man? You vanished into thin air all of a sudden! This bond is a fake and I won't acknowledge it!" He gripped my chin, forcing me to stare at him directly in the eye. His grip was rough, but not enough to bruise. "Look at me directly in the eye, Ivara. I won't lie to you. And make no mistake, little wolf. You're mine, the moon didn't make a m

Chapter Four

IVARA"You said you'd be taking me to Lucian and my father!" I hissed, my voice echoing off the damp, narrow walls of the dark passage. I dug my heels into the cold stone, my chest heaving with a mixture of betrayal and raw panic. I felt like a fool to believe him, to expect anything resembling honesty from a Rogue King.Silas stopped so abruptly I nearly slammed into the broad expanse of his back. He turned, his massive frame nearly swallowing the flickering torchlight. "Shut up and follow me, Ivara," He growled, his voice a low vibration that seemed to rattle my very bones. "There are some things you need to know first."He didn't wait for me to breathe. He turned back and continued deeper into the bowels of the underground palace, the air grew colder and smelt of old iron and wet earth. Finally, he came to a halt before a pair of towering, iron studded oak doors at the end of the corridor.He turned back to my face, the shadows of the passage playing over the rugged, lethal planes
