I knew he never loved me even though I was his mate, but I never thought, he would stoop so low and accuse me of doing such a thing. Unknown to me, I was truly carrying another's man's child, and he was none other than the shape-shifting hybrid Alpha... Aziz Duncan. ...

“Dominick?” Charlie shouted my name in public. But I simply ignored him. “I like you! Please, say it back!” he added. Still, I ignored him and continued walking without looking back.

I like you!” he insisted, this time, his voice even louder compared to earlier. “I know you like me, too. So, please, come back!” Dominick and Clarissa were getting married the next day. However, at the bachelor’s party, Dominick Roy de Guzman accidentally had a one-night stand with Charlie Frost, Clarissa’s older brother.
