His Regret, My RiseWhen I married Alpha Damian Blackwood, I believed my love could melt the ice in his eyes. Five years, countless sacrifices, and a son later, I finally learned the truth: to him, I was nothing but a convenient Luna and a free babysitter.
I discovered this the day I walked into our home and found him buried inside another woman, our five-year-old son sitting on her lap, calling her "Mommy."
The pheromones in the air didn't lie. He'd chosen her. He'd always chosen her.
I didn't cry. I didn't beg. I threw my wedding ring at his feet and walked out with nothing but a small suitcase and my shattered pride.
What Damian didn't know—what no one knew—was that the "pathetic Luna" he discarded also happened to be the secret tech genius behind a billion-dollar startup, a hacker so skilled that the world's most powerful wolves beg for her services.
But when I walked into Thorn Industries looking for a fresh start, I didn't expect to find Kaelen Thorn—the most powerful Alpha in the city, a man whose silver eyes saw right through my walls and claimed something in my soul I thought long dead.
He gave me a job. A home. A life.
He gave me back myself.
Now Damian wants me back. He says he wasn't in his right mind. He says our son needs me. He says he still loves me.
But Kaelen stands beside me, his hand on my back, his wolf ready to tear apart anyone who dares hurt me again.
The old me would have gone back. The old me would have believed his lies.
The old me is dead.
They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. In my case, what almost destroyed me made me into someone even I never expected.
