As I was cleaning up the house, I noticed something had fallen out of the cabinet my wife always kept locked tight. I remembered Megan's constant warnings. "That cabinet holds all our family's important records. If anything gets lost, there's no getting it back. Just leave it alone and don't touch it." Worried something valuable might have fallen out, I rushed to pick it up. But what I found was a thick stack of remittance slips. From forty years ago to now, every month, my wife had been sending money to the same account. And that's when it hit me. My wife had been lying to me. The money I'd been pouring into this family had been flowing right out, into the hands of someone else.

Rhea Hale, a young art restorer at the old Elaria gallery, lives a life of near-perfect calm—canvases, colors, and classical symphonies that fill her every day. But when she touches a mysterious painting titled The Moon Painting, something inside her begins to shift. Strange visions, eyes watching from the fog, and wild emotions she can't explain slowly start to unravel her peaceful world. Across the city, Kaelan Viero—the national hockey team’s captain—carries the charm and composure of a champion. But beneath the arena lights and public spotlight, there's a side of him he never shows… until his eyes lock with a stranger’s in the stands. That brief moment sparks something long buried. And from then on, neither of their lives remains the same. "One glance started it all. And after that... there was no turning back."

Sienna was 10 when she had to witness her parents being murdered right in front of her eyes. The incident caused her severe PTSD. The Alpha King brought the little girl to his castle after the tragic incident. Everyone welcomed her wholeheartedly except for one person, the Alpha King's son, Azriel Ledger. He hated her for her closeness to his dad and bullied her whenever he got the chance. The PTSD had stripped Sienna off of her wolf. She was now just an omega and Azriel left no chance to remind her of that. He was obsessed with hurting her or maybe just with her; only time will tell. His hatred starts to turn into something else, something intense as time passes by. But the question is would he be able to acknowledge it before it's too late?

Amaya was the innocent daughter of Alpha James, a cruel and vicious Alpha. She gave up everything to stop his cruelty, all for love. But instead of being rewarded, she was betrayed. Her mate rejected her. Her best friend turned against her. Then she was sold off to Alpha Caius, the deadly warlord people call Death, and her father’s nemesis. Now trapped in his cold, dangerous world, Amaya refuses to break, even when Caius pushes her to the edge. But behind his cold eyes is something more, something old, dark, and deeply broken. And Amaya might be the only one who can reach it… or she might be destroyed trying. Because no one escapes the Alpha of the South. And an omega like Amaya was never meant to survive him, let alone change his fate.
