Mit Kyle Branson verheiratet, einem erfolgreichen und distanzierten Geschäftsmann, führte Mia ein Leben im unerkannten Schatten seiner wahren Liebe – ihrer jüngeren Stiefschwester Taylor. Als Mia unerwartet entdeckte, dass sie mit Zwillingen schwanger war, erschütterte diese Nachricht ihre Welt, zumal ihr Ehevertrag eine Schwangerschaft verbot. Während Mia mit der Realität rang, Kyles Kinder zu erwarten, musste sie nicht nur die erdrückende Last ihrer kalten Vertragsbeziehung tragen, sondern auch den Schmerz des Verrats ertragen, da Kyle seine Affäre mit Taylor fortsetzte. Mias innerer Kampf verschärfte sich, als sie durch den emotionalen Aufruhr watete, für den Mann unsichtbar zu sein, den sie einst geliebt hatte, und gleichzeitig das drohende Geheimnis ihrer Schwangerschaft bewältigen musste.

Everyone called Mia a shameless whore. However, the one trailing behind her was the youngest don of the Yorick family, James. He hand-washed her lace camisoles, broke three ribs for her, and even with his face covered in blood from a beating, he could still smile at her. One night, after too much drinking, the underboss he trusted most leaned down beside him. His face was full of disdain. “Boss, Mia is a disgrace to all of us! A woman like that, how could she ever be worthy of you?” James suddenly laughed. His eyes went terrifyingly blank. The cigar between his fingers glowed faintly in the dark. “Back then, before I secured my position, I was young, greedy for power. To get my sister-in-law that antique necklace she wanted, I took advantage of Mia being drunk and took pictures of her myself… “Ten dollars a copy. I sold thirty thousand of them. Things blew way out of control… I owe her.” James took a long drink of whiskey while his Adam’s apple bobbed. “Thankfully… she will never know. I will spend my whole life making it up to her, treating her twice as well.” He did not see the private room door quietly close the moment he said those words. Mia turned around with a blank expression on her face and walked into a small clinic on the corner. She laid down on the operating table. He would never deserve to know that he had once been a father, if only for a moment. That whole lifetime he planned to spend making it up to her, she did not want it anymore.

To keep me safe during my pregnancy, Tharion hides me away in a remote, deserted palace, guarded in secret by his Nightguards. But just as I am about to give birth, I unexpectedly crossed paths with the Vixen Consort, Lyra Swifttail, who wanders into the Forsaken Wing by mistake. She swishes her tail playfully, eyes sparkling with amusement as she looks at my round belly. Her smile is utterly captivating. "I didn't expect to find a little carp having an affair here…" With a spell, she drags me away, forcing me into my true form. Then, one by one, she scrapes the scales from my body until I am raw and bleeding. She has her catfolk attendant pour scalding oil over my wounds and orders guards to violate me until I am left broken like a rag. When I finally lose consciousness, she slashes me open with a claw and rips the stillborn child from my womb. She presents it with both hands to Tharion, who has just come to visit. She says, "Your Majesty, what perfect timing. I caught a carp sneaking around the Forsaken Wing. This is her illegitimate child!"

„Lassen wir uns jetzt scheiden und bringen es hinter uns. Wir haben beide bekommen, was wir von dieser Vereinbarung wollten.“ Eine Träne rollte unbemerkt aus Zerahs Auge. „Ist das so?“ ...

Was wird passieren, wenn er seine Erinnerungen zurückgewinnt und erkennt, dass er die falsche Frau gewählt hat? Wird er ihr Herz zurückgewinnen können? Wird sie ihn akzeptieren oder einen anderen Weg wählen? Oder werden die Kräfte, die gegen sie arbeiten, sie wegnehmen, bevor sie sich entscheiden kann?

A football jock and a math major, Camron has struggled in his life to reach here. He met his total opposite, Evans Blake.

But underneath the tension, both Cameroon and Evans start noticing each other in ways they hadn't expected.
