Alpha DECEPTION
Emily Cortez, heiress of the powerful Cortez Pack, has always believed she could balance duty and desire—until her betrothed, Ricardo Marino, rejects her publicly with no explanation. Humiliated and vulnerable, she turns to her childhood friend, Rudy, and proposes a contract relationship to reclaim control of her life.
But the world she thought she knew is full of lies. A man claiming to be Ralph Othon appears, offering stability and influence, while secrets about loyalty, power, and identity threaten to destroy everything. Emily must navigate mafia politics, pack rivalries, and deception while deciding who she can trust—and who she is willing to risk her heart for.
