À la veille de notre mariage, Gabin Huet, mon fiancé, professeur d’histoire, s’est uni à Mila Breguet, son premier amour, atteint d’un cancer, lors d’une cérémonie traditionnelle à Gustokate, un village ancien au charme intemporel. Sous un ciel constellé d’étoiles, il lui a souri tendrement, la serrant dans ses bras : « Selon la tradition, seule la femme légitime peut avoir droit à la cérémonie de mariage avec son époux. Même si Jeanne et moi avons déjà officialisé notre union, elle ne demeure à mes yeux qu’une concubine. » Sous les acclamations bienveillantes de l’assemblée, ils ont échangé un baiser, aussi radieux qu’un prince et une princesse tout droit sortis d’un conte de fées. J’ai assisté à toute la scène en silence. Sans la moindre hésitation, ma décision était prise : j’ai pris rendez-vous pour un avortement. De mes quinze à mes trente ans, j’ai aimé Gabin avec une constance aveugle. Quinze années d’attente, de douleur, d’espoir ténu. Mais dans son cœur, il n’y avait de place que pour ma demi-sœur, Mila. Alors, j’ai renoncé. Peu après, je me suis jointe à une expédition géologique en Antarctique, un monde de glace et de silence, laissant à Gabin une convention de divorce et un ultime présent. Pourtant, cet homme qui ne m’avait jamais appréciée s’est effondré du jour au lendemain, comme si mon départ l’avait soudainement vidé de toute énergie.

When the most powerful Alpha buys me at an underground auction, I never dreamed he would claim me as his Mate. My pack was attacked, and everyone killed… everyone except for me. I could fetch a great price on the Black Market. For I am not only a Mafia Princess, I’m the Princess of the High Claw Pack, and now, the only living heir to the throne. But the Don who just bought me, is the most vicious of all. And he’s claimed me as his Mate. Will I submit... or not? No one claims me… even Adan Cole.

We had been married for 24 years. Twenty-four years of what I thought was happy. He got everything he wanted. The house he chose. The truck he loved. The vacations he picked. I made sure life ran smoothly so he never had to question comfort. And apparently, comfort made him bored. That’s how I met Vincent. Not in person. On Tinder. Same smile. Same scar on his chin. Same wedding ring conveniently missing.

When James Chapman and I first got together, I was a regular student while he was one of the most popular guys in school. Five years down the road, I'm still a regular woman. James' attitude toward me has changed drastically, though. He frequently complains about my appearance. I know it's because his true love is back in the country. He misses our fifth anniversary because of her. His true love makes fun of me for being ugly to his face, so he orders me to get cosmetic surgery at her newly opened clinic. He wants me to use my fanbase to make her business boom. "You're so ugly that you'd be the perfect person to prove Barbara's skills… if she can actually make you look better, that is. We're all friends, aren't we? What's wrong with lending her a hand? Stop being so petty!" Barbara Simpson kills me—I die on the operating table in her inhumane clinic. James thinks I go missing because I'm just throwing a tantrum, but he realizes he's wrong when he finds my mangled body in the basement. The diamond ring he put on my finger is still there, too.
