Desperately

Mirelle Ashford had three perfect years as Luna. Well, not until she woke up in another man’s bed with no memory of how she got there. Her mate, Alpha Dominic Ravenclaw, didn’t wait for explanations. In front of the entire pack, he stripped her of everything: her title, their bond, her home. Cast out and broken, divorced Mirelle discovered she was pregnant weeks later. But she knew Dominic would never believe the child was his. So she was determined to raise him all by herself. Nine years later, Dominic saves a boy from hunters in the forest. A boy whose dying mother turns out to be the mate he thought he’d never see again. And someone is desperately hunting him. Now Dominic and Mirelle must unravel a conspiracy that goes deeper than neither of them imagined.

In my previous life, the apocalyptic haunts descended without warning, and the whole world plunged into a living hell. After two days of starvation, my husband and mother-in-law tied me to a chair. I begged them desperately, but they did not spare me. Instead, to keep their "food" fresh, they sliced the flesh straight from my leg. When I was reborn, I spent every last cent of my fortune to hold a grand, extravagant funeral, for myself. My husband and mother-in-law thought I had lost my mind. However, what they had not known was this: anyone who buried themselves could claim the treasures laid to rest in their own coffin: golden coins that could command the anomalies of the end times. Which meant that with this extravagant funeral, I would stand invincible when the apocalypse arrived. That time, without me as their "meat" and scapegoat… I would see how long they lasted.

I was the stand-in who looked most like my husband's first love. He put me through countless plastic surgeries, both major and minor ones, until I became her exact likeness. But then, she came back from the dead. All it took was her saying, "I don't like anyone looking like me," and he sent me right back to the operating table once more. I begged him, telling him that my body couldn't handle it anymore. Alas, he only looked at me with irritation. "Seeing that cheap imitation of her face just disgusts me," he sneered. "No matter how close you come, you'll never be her." In the end, I died on that operating table. Yet, he went mad, trying desperately to recall what I once looked like.
