Odeya is the future Luna of the Mooncrest Pack. She never liked that her destined mate came from the Duskbane family, but she slowly fell in love with him after he defended her from her stepsister, who constantly mocked her for her body size and for being a Wolfless Omega.
Just three days before their wedding, Odeya overhears her mate reminding her stepsister of their secret plan. His mission is to marry Odeya, become the Grand Alpha after her father dies, then frame Odeya for cheating and have her banished from the pack so he can marry the woman he truly loves, which is her own stepsister.
She was heartbroken and trapped.
The entire pack already knows that the Grand Alpha's daughter is getting married in three days to a man from the respected Duskbane family. Calling off the wedding would bring shame to her family and throw the pack into chaos.
When all hope seems lost, Malik Duskbane, her mate's mysterious twin brother, who is rumored to be attracted to men, offers her a contract marriage. He claims it will silence the rumors surrounding him and save her from a lifetime of betrayal.
But can Odeya trust another Duskbane? Or will she sacrifice her happiness by marrying the mate who plans to destroy her?
