"Luna, are you really going to renounce your Shadow Pack membership? Once your status is revoked, your mate bond with the Alpha will automatically be severed. Are you absolutely certain?" My eyes gradually grew firm with resolve. "Yes. I'm certain." The Alpha Council staff member across from me couldn't hide their shock. Everyone in the pack knew how deeply the Alpha loved his Luna. "Alright, the renunciation has been registered. It will take effect in ten days." I nodded and turned away, dialing a number I hadn't called in five years. "Tell Thunder pack Alpha, I'm coming home in ten days to inherit Winters Pack."

Couronné Roi Alpha à seulement treize ans, Liam Guillermo a grandi avec du sang sur les mains et la vengeance dans le cœur. Impitoyable et craint de tous, il a juré de ne jamais aimer, de ne jamais faire confiance—même lorsque le destin l’a lié à une âme sœur. Olivia Noah n’a connu que la douleur. Trahie par sa propre famille, moquée pour sa silhouette et forcée d’entrer au palais contre sa volonté, elle devient la seule chose que Liam n’a jamais voulue : sa compagne. Méprisée, humiliée et utilisée uniquement pour lui donner un héritier, Olivia découvre qu’elle porte l’enfant du Roi Alpha. Mais lorsque sa trahison la plus sombre éclate au grand jour, elle s’enfuit—jurant de protéger son bébé, même si cela signifie abandonner le lien d’âme sœur. Trois ans plus tard, Olivia a reconstruit sa vie en tant que mère forte et épanouie dans une meute lointaine. Elle a juré de ne jamais pardonner à Liam. Mais lorsque le Roi Alpha retrouve sa trace ainsi que celle de leur fils, il est déterminé à regagner sa confiance et l’amour qu’il a détruit—même si cela implique d’affronter un Alpha rival qui la désire en secret depuis toujours. Dans un monde de trahison, de pouvoir et de vengeance, Olivia doit choisir : protéger son cœur, ou tout risquer pour une seconde chance d’amour avec l’âme sœur qui l’a autrefois brisé ?

As the younger sister of the most powerful Alpha in the Southern Territory, I dated Damon, my brother's biggest rival for Alpha King, for five years without telling my brother and parents. We were in love for five years, and he gave me everything. He always tells me his wolf can't control its desire when it sees me. That's why he likes to have sex with me anywhere, anytime—even out in the wild, he doesn't care. But the day before our mating ceremony, I found out that my fiancé was dating me just to threaten my brother to quit the election with our sex tape. After knowing the truth, I decided to give up everything and leave, but my fiancé humbly knelt on the ground and begged me to come back.

Kristin is forced into a contract marriage to birth a child for the comatose billionaire Lucas, by her stepmum, to raise funds for her father's surgery bills. Unknown to her, it was all a planned game. Her mother killed her father for his company when she saw that he willed all his properties to Kristin and connived with Lucas's uncle to get the cancer cure research document he was working on before his illness. Beginning in a forced marriage, Kristin had to endure all forms of verbal abuse, but later on, Lucas finally falls in love with her. But betrayal and secrets lurk behind—will true love prevail?

The night of my first shift at eighteen, my two older brothers brought home a twelve-year-old orphaned Omega. My alpha brother seized the rare healing herb I'd spent all my savings on—herbs meant to ease my first transformation—and gave them to her instead. "You're strong enough," he growled. "You don't need such precious herbs." My beta brother snarled with fury, pointing toward the door. "Get out! Don't come back!" I said nothing more, just grabbed my packed bag and left. They assumed I was merely throwing a tantrum, that I'd return in a few days. My brothers, finally free of my presence, took the orphan girl on an international vacation to the Caribbean islands I'd always dreamed of visiting. Many days later, when they returned to the pack, they were shocked to discover I'd accepted an offer from the neighboring pack's Head Healer. The position required fifteen years of isolated herbal research. I could never return home. That night, they fell apart.

I was preparing a gift for our six-year anniversary when my best friend sent me a photo of my Alpha boyfriend kissing another she-wolf. "Wait, when did you get to Chicago?" The she-wolf in the picture looked a lot like me, but it wasn't me. That's when I found out that my boyfriend of six years had been searching for replacements for his dead childhood sweetheart the whole time. I was number 5. The she-wolf in the photo was number 18. I rushed to Chicago and tracked down Lucas using his phone's location. "Dude, this number 18 really looks like Ally, even more than Sophia does!" "Nah man, Sophia still looks more like her. She's number 5 after all - if she didn't look so much like Ally, why would Lucas have stuck with her for six years?" Lucas flicked his cigarette ash, looking completely relaxed: "They both look pretty similar, but number 18's way better in bed. Sophia's too uptight." "I heard you had someone pick out a diamond ring. You planning to propose? To Sophia or this new chick?" Lucas leaned back into the couch with a cocky grin: "Haven't decided yet. Why don't you guys choose for me?" I turned around, my whole body shaking as a chill ran from my head to my toes. After calming down, I texted my best friend: "Your Alpha cousin, the one who had a crush on me and waited four years - is he still single?"

My Alpha mate Kieran ordered our eight-year-old son to burn my mother alive because his Omega assistant accused me of killing her pet dog out of spite. Kieran's eyes were filled with impatience and disgust. "You're supposed to be our pack's respected Luna. Why would you target an innocent Omega? Whatever harm her pet suffered, your mother will endure the same. Your mother is paying the price for your jealousy!" I fell to my knees, begging Kieran to spare my mother. But he commanded our seven-year-old son Owen to light the fire himself. My son didn't hesitate for a second as he threw the torch into the pile of wood. "That's what you get for always going against Aunt Sera!" I screamed and cried, desperately begging them to help me put out the flames. "Please, I'm begging you, take my mother to the healing center..." "Enough, Aria. Your mother is still lying in the hospital bed. That's just a training dummy. Stop putting on this pathetic act." After saying that, father and son walked away without looking back. They didn't know that it really was my mother burning in those flames. But when I finally gave up on them and left, why did they both come crawling back, begging me to return?
