Selena Jesus has spent years holding her broken family together after her father’s betrayal destroyed their lives. But when her mother is diagnosed with cancer and debt threatens to bury them completely, Selena makes a desperate choice: she agrees to a one-year contract marriage with billionaire CEO Matthew Kingland.

But behind closed doors, Selena quickly realizes her husband is still dangerously entangled with his seductive ex, Victoria. What begins as a business arrangement soon turns into something far more toxic: obsession, temptation, and emotional warfare. Until the night Selena catches Matthew in a devastating betrayal that shatters what little trust she had left. This time, she refuses to break. Selena rebuilds herself from the ashes — stronger, richer, and untouchable. And when she grows closer to Matthew’s powerful cousin, Alexander, Matthew is finally forced to face the one thing he never expected: losing her. Now consumed by jealousy, regret, and a love he realized too late, Matthew begins a desperate battle to win back the only woman who ever truly mattered. But after everything he destroyed, can Selena ever trust him again… or will another man become the revenge Matthew can never survive?

I decide to propose to Rebecca Milton, now that we've been in a relationship for five years. But I end up overhearing her conversation with her childhood friend, Tobias Wright, outside a private room in the clubhouse. "Seriously, Rebecca? Are you still hooked on the idea of pretending to be a poor student? All this just so you can win a bet of wooing Sebastian Grant, the business genius, and making him yours? "The Grants are on the verge of filing for bankruptcy. Heck, Sebastian has also cut ties with his family just so he can be with you. Don't tell me you seriously plan on marrying him!" Every cell in my body freezes upon hearing Tobias' words. Then, I hear Rebecca responding to him flippantly. "Marry him? As if! All I have to do is wait for him to propose to me, then I can expose the truth of the bet to him on the spot! Oh, the expression he's wearing must be amazing!" Tobias chuckles lightly in return. "You are in a five-year relationship with Sebastian at the end of the day. Are you sure you don't have feelings for him?" Rebecca scoffs back. "I was just playing with him, you know? Whoever puts their heart on the line loses this game." Then, she gazes at Tobias tenderly. "Don't you know very well who I'm truly in love with?" It turns out that the girlfriend I'm head over heels for, as well as the relationship that I view as my prized treasure, is nothing but the product of a bet. I call my parents on the spot. "I will go along with the marriage alliance."

Javier Anderson has everything he could wish for; a home, the looks, jet-set lifestyle, lovely parents, girls falling at his feet and a wonderful haircut.

When I woke up that morning and happened to glance at the mirror, a scream tore from my throat before I could stop it. Because on the face I had always taken such pride in, there was now a jagged, horrifying scar. As terror gripped me, a cool, detached female voice cut through the air beside me. "What are you shrieking about so early in the morning? Scared by your own ugly face?" I looked up in shock and realized the voice belonged to my girlfriend, Alicia. Only—she wasn't the same girl from yesterday. Gone was the youthful innocence I remembered. In its place, every movement, every glance radiated the allure of a mature woman. The words slipped out before I could hold them back. "Babe… you're gorgeous…" But Alicia's brows knit together, her gaze colder than ice. "Kurt, drop the act!" Act? I was at a loss. Why would she accuse me of pretending? "Don't call me the way you used to five years ago. It's disgusting." Five years ago? But… I'm still twenty-three… am I not?

After pulling an all-nighter to finish a group assignment, I wanted only one thing: sleep. I did not even get 10 minutes. My roommate, Ronda Jones, burst into the dorm, raging about class. She shouted into her headset and turned our room into a storm of insults and keyboard slams. When I quietly asked her to keep it down, she turned on me instead. Then the power went out, and a 5-dollar electricity bill became the excuse she had been waiting for. I refused to split it. That single decision set everything in motion.

For eighteen years, I believed I was nothing…an orphan with no pack, no rank, and no future. Then I was sent to the most dangerous werewolf academy in the realm. I was supposed to stay invisible. Keep my head down. Survive. Instead, I caught the attention of them. The strongest alphas at the Academy. Arrogant, ruthless and untouchable. They hate me. They watch me. They circle like predators who can’t decide whether to destroy me… or claim me. They don’t know I’m a princess. And when they discover the truth, they won’t let me go.

For eighteen years, my wife, Elizabeth Connerty, never once reached out to her first love, Lucas Ryder. She committed herself fully to me and cooked warm meals for me. She attended every parent-teacher conference for our daughter. She carefully planned our family trips year after year. That was how we lived—quietly, steadily, and happily—for eighteen years. But after our daughter celebrated her eighteenth birthday, I turned to Elizabeth and said, "Let's get a divorce." She stood in the doorway of our daughter's bedroom, staring at me in stunned silence. I added calmly, "When our daughter was born, you promised me that once she turned eighteen, we would divorce."
