Adrian Pennino Balboa

À la veille de son mariage, Eleanor Sterling, brillante héritière et PDG de Sterling Tech, découvre que son fiancé, Grayson Whitmore, est secrètement amoureux de sa demi-sœur, Isla Vaughn, depuis des années. Humiliée et trahie, elle annule immédiatement la cérémonie sous les regards moqueurs de l’élite de San Francisco. Mais alors que les rumeurs se propagent, un retournement de situation inattendu secoue la haute société : Adrian Wolfe, le magnat le plus puissant de la Silicon Valley, rival et ancien mentor d’Eleanor, annonce publiquement qu’il va l’épouser. Pourquoi cet homme, réputé pour son cœur de pierre et son empire inébranlable, voudrait-il l’épouser ? Pour Eleanor, c’est une occasion parfaite de se venger et de reprendre le contrôle de son destin. Pour Adrian, c’est un mouvement stratégique… ou peut-être bien plus que cela. Entre jeux de pouvoir, secrets du passé et une attraction irrésistible, Eleanor et Adrian devront naviguer dans un mariage qui semble factice… mais les sentiments qui commencent à naître entre eux, eux, pourraient bien être réels.

Akala ni Seraphina Ramos, kaya niyang tiisin ang lahat para sa lalaking mahal niya—hanggang sa gabing nahuli niya mismo ang asawa niyang si Adrian Torres, isang makapangyarihang CEO, sa kama kasama ang babaeng tinaguriang “true love” niya, ang sikat na aktres na si Lyra Alcaraz. Doon tuluyang nabasag ang puso at dignidad ni Seraphina. Sa araw ng kanilang diborsyo, sa harap mismo ni Adrian at Lyra, ikinagulat ng lahat nang hilahin ni Seraphina ang isang estranghero papasok sa Civil Affairs Bureau at pakasalan ito kaagad. Sinabi nilang desperada siya, pabigla-bigla, at nakakatawa. Ngunit alam ni Seraphina ang totoo—isa itong kasunduang kasal, walang halong damdamin. O akala lang niya. Hindi pala ordinaryong lalaki ang napangasawa niya—isa siyang makapangyarihang negosyante na marunong maglaro ng puso at kapalaran. Unti-unti, nagbago ang mundo ni Seraphina sa ilalim ng kanyang proteksyon. Ngunit muli siyang guguluhin ng nakaraan nang bumalik si Adrian—hindi na ang malamig at walang pakialam na asawa, kundi isang lalaking handang bawiin siya sa kahit anong paraan. Ngayon, haharapin ni Seraphina ang pinakamahirap na desisyon: pagbibigyan ba niya ang CEO ex-husband na minsan nang winasak siya, o pipiliin na niyang tuluyang mahalin ang sarili o ang iba?

I'd been with Alpha Adrian Grant for eight years, but he never once allowed me to go public with our relationship. On the eve of my birthday, I learned he'd bid on a priceless moonstone ring at auction. I could barely contain my excitement—I thought he was finally going to claim me openly. But on my birthday, I saw the photos on the news. Adrian, kissing another she-wolf. And on Vivian's hand—the one wrapped around his neck—was the very moonstone ring I'd been dreaming about. It hit me like a bolt of lightning. I drove toward Moonlight Forest, but halfway there, a pack of rogues ambushed me. Desperate, I reached through the mate bond, trying to connect with Adrian. Every single time, he shut me out. Just when I'd given up hope, a passerby drove the rogues off and rushed me to the hospital. My pup was gone—lost in the attack. I called Adrian through my tears, over and over. On the twenty-fifth try, the call finally connected. But the voice I heard wasn't his. "Ugh, so annoying. You promised you'd spend today with me—just me. Why are you taking calls from other she-wolves?" Adrian immediately set me aside, his tone turning honey-sweet as he soothed the woman in his arms. "I know, I know. I'll ignore her. She's just some orphan with no family—how could she possibly compare to you?" Their smug laughter pierced through the phone like a knife to the chest. But what they didn't know was this: I was the true daughter of the Oceanridge Pack Alpha—his only heir. Vivian Blake was nothing more than a girl my family had taken in out of pity. I opened the mind-link to my father. "Dad, I'm coming home. And that arranged mating you mentioned—I agree. But I have two conditions. First, remove Vivian from the pack. Second, cut all ties with Crescent Moon Pack and pull every cent of funding we've ever given them."
