In the fifth year of my mating to Alpha Tom, his childhood sweetheart, Becky Bell, was splashed across every tabloid in the territory. Pregnant. Unmated. And accused of shattering another couple’s bond. The rumors hit like a rogue’s ambush. But it was his reaction that truly gutted me. “Becky’s father once saved me, she has no pack, no family left. Everything she’s accomplished… she clawed her way to it. Alone.” My fingers clenched tighter around the pregnancy test tucked away in my purse. “And the only way to protect her now,” he continued, not even looking me in the eye, “is for me to marry her. To claim the pup as mine.” “And what about me?” I asked, barely more than a whisper. My voice cracked. The Sunfire Pack and the Golden Fang Pack—my pack—had been allies for over a century. “How do I explain this sudScott rejection to my parents? To my pack? To the elders? They know we're mate bond.” Alpha Tom inhaled sharply. “Just tell them it was always a business arrangement. That there was no real love between us.” My wolf bared her teeth at that. He had the audacity to look away. “Once the media frenzy dies down, I’ll come for you. I’ll bring you back to Sunfire Pack and give you the grand wedding you deserve.” I stared at him. This Alpha—was seriously telling me he was going to marry another she-wolf, claim her pup, let me get torn apart by pack gossip and speculation, and then what? he's offering me his marriage like it’s some kind of charity? My fingers twitched, aching to throw the pregnancy test at him. But I didn’t. I laughed. For three years, I had been the one he discarded—over and over. And now, even my marriage was to be sacrificed for her sake. It hit me then, sharp and cold: It's time for me to leave him

He pushed me roughly, grabbing my legs and humping his hard d**k on my p*ssy gate. "Fuck! we shouldn't be doing this." he hissed under his breath. "Shhh." I whispered to his ears. "You opened my legs, inserted your sausage inside my cherry...and now you are backing off? Daddy, something is considered forbidden, only when you make it so." **********(Flashbacks). “Samantha Monroe, do you take Dominic Vance to be your lawfully wedded husband?” Cierra's breath caught under the veil. The name wasn’t hers, it was her mother's. But the entire church waited. Cameras flashed. And somewhere, her mother was still trapped in a courtroom on the other side of the city, where her flight was with-held. “I… do.” The words came out barely a whisper. Dominic’s fingers brushed hers as he slid the ring on. Warm. Certain. He didn’t know the woman beside him wasn’t his bride.. only the bride's daughter. It was supposed to be a cover-up, a harmless favor to protect her mother’s reputation for a few hours. But one signature turned the lie into law, and one look from Dominic, created a huge lust in her... a temptation that made her realize there would be no easy way out. When her mother finally returned, victory in court, she found her new husband already captivated by her daughter, the girl who’d worn her veil. Now the secret binds all three of them: A daughter carrying a forbidden truth, A mother desperate to reclaim the man meant for her, and A husband torn between the woman he promised and the one he can’t forget. In a world where every vow hides a sin, Cierra must learn that not all that glitters is gold… sometimes, it’s her stepdad.
