My younger sister was crazy about novels and always envied the way ordinary heroines pick up penniless heroes and climb the social ladder. So, she started picking up men wherever she could. Until one day, a man with a face covered in sores collapsed at our doorstep. I instantly recognized the signs of syphilis and warned my sister repeatedly, and only then did she give up the idea. However, fate had other plans: my sister's best friend "picked him up" instead and married into a wealthy family. My sister held a grudge. On my birthday, she locked me in my room and set it on fire. No matter how desperately I begged, she refused to open the door. Outside, she sneered: "I know you're just scared I'll live better than you, so you want to drag me down into misery with you.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the very day my sister insisted on "picking up that man."

Laura Legoza was born into an ancient noble family as the youngest daughter, doted on by everyone. But since her mother's departure, her most trusted fiancé, along with her sisters, had branded Laura as an illegitimate child and conspired against her in various ways. She was imprisoned in an iron cage with wild wolves, enduring mockery and humiliation. Those who were once closest to her had become the most terrible demons to torment her. She wanted revenge. Recalling an array, she had read about in an ancient book, she used her own blood to summon the demonic werewolf Ned in the dead of night. "For humans to make a deal with me, it comes at the cost of flesh and blood," he said. "What use is this flesh and blood to me if I cannot have my revenge?" she replied. Laura had nothing left to lose in her quest to drag her former enemies down into the abyss. She would sacrifice anything for retribution.

I misbehaved. My knees ached from being planted on the aggressively cold floor for so long, but I would take the pain for as long as possible, if it meant gaining the Devil's forgiveness. I whimpered helplessly as the beast of a man pierced me with his cold eyes, ever so subtly patting his strong thigh twice. "D-daddy please-" My pleas were unfinished and went unheard as he continued to pick up the black paddle from his desk and roll up his sleeves. "Don't waste my time, angel." He muttered gruffly, the depth of his well matured voice making every fibre of my being to tremble. "Bend over daddy's lap and receive your punishment, princess." "Y-yes daddy."

And she's not just about to resist him. When an innocent, naive, little angel mingles with the step-father from Hell.

I didn’t volunteer. I was sacrificed. In the brutal territory of Velmora, girls like me are nothing but breeding stock. My father handed me over like cattle to the Alpha Selection where surviving means being claimed by a wolf stronger than fear itself. But no one told me there were two Alphas. No one warned me about the twins: Kael, the violent one with rage in his veins, and Jarek, the cold one who told me to run… then watched while his brother nearly killed me. I was never meant to survive this place. I was never supposed to feel anything but pain. But they felt something. And that makes me dangerous. They think I’ll break. Maybe I will. But I’ll drag them down with me. ……... In Velmora, the Alpha Selection is sacred and brutal. Girls are offered, judged, and claimed. None return the same. Amber is human. She was supposed to be overlooked. Disposable. But when she steps into the twin Alphas’ den, something happens no one expected. Kael wants her dead. Jarek wants her gone. But the bond won’t let go. As whispers of an impossible connection stir, Amber finds herself entangled in a supernatural truth Velmora was never ready to face. A human girl shouldn’t be able to bond with Alphas. Unless she’s not just human.
