"Nina, kalau kamu terus nggak menurut, terapi kita nggak akan bisa dilanjutkan." Di dalam klinik, Dokter Sam sedang melakukan terapi psikologis pribadi padaku.

[Pa, aku setuju berimigrasi ke Prancis untuk menikah. Cepat, atau aku akan menyesal.] Pak Agus, ayah Tania Sane, langsung menjawab: [Putriku sayang, paling lama sebulan lagi semua prosedur selesai!] Tania diam-diam menyeka air matanya dan menyimpan ponselnya. Satu jam yang lalu, dia masih di dalam Bentley, mendesah pelan karena ciuman Chaz Limex. Ketika ponsel Chaz berdering, dia menjawab dalam bahasa Georgia, "Ngapain nelpon sekarang?" Orang di ujung sana tertawa. "Kenapa? Emangnya kau lagi sibuk dengan apa? Yang ini seberapa mirip dengan Nina Lopez?" Chaz membelai wajah Tania yang lembut dan berkata dengan acuh tak acuh, "70%. Kalau nggak ada yang penting, aku tutup ya!" Pria itu buru-buru berkata, "Jangan! Nina akan balik besok dengan pesawat! Rencananya akan merintis karir di sini. Baik kan aku infokan padamu? Cinta pertamamu sudah akan balik, penggantinya bisa nggak disinggirkan?" Chaz berkata dengan dingin, "Nggak ada yang nggak bisa diselesaikan dengan uang." Kepala Tania setengah terkulai di kursi, air mata mengalir di wajahnya. Chaz sama sekali tidak tahu bahwa dia mengerti bahasa Georgia. Ternyata cinta tulusnya selama tiga tahun sama sekali tidak berarti di mata Chaz.

Mais quand il s’est enfin réveillé, elle est tombée sur un message ambigu sur téléphone de son mari... Son premier amour, était de retour. Ses amis, qui l’ont toujours méprisée, s’en sont aussitôt moqués : « La princesse est de retour, il est temps d’éjecter la remplaçante. » C’est là que Nina a compris. Louis ne l’avait jamais aimée. Elle n’était qu’une blague pathétique. Alors, une nuit, il a reçu ses papiers de divorce. Motif : dysfonctionnement masculin.

She coveted everything about me. My possessions, my experiences, and even my men. So one night, my mother pushed me into an older man's bedroom. The next day, she asked with a smug smile, "Nina, how was your night with the older guy?" I rubbed my sore waist, recalling his broad shoulders, long legs, and trim waist from the night before. I smiled as I answered her. "That fiancé of mine is all yours now. Just remember—I’ll be your Aunt-in-law in the future.”

The kindergarten was engulfed in flames. My four-year-old daughter was trapped inside. I pleaded desperately with my firefighter husband, "Nina is upstairs!" He snapped impatiently, "You're just trying to stop me from saving Dana's daughter. How could you be so cruel? Dana is fragile. If she loses her child, it will destroy her. She won't survive this." That night, he emerged from the fire carrying Dana's daughter, instantly becoming a hero. Even at midnight, when I wept by the side of our daughter's ashes, he was still with Dana. "Samuel Leif, you'll pay for this!"

After working abroad for several years, I returned home, only to have my parents arrange a blind date for me. He was tall and strikingly handsome, honest in character, steady in demeanor, and came from an excellent family background. In short, the perfect candidate for a husband. I told myself that sooner or later, marriage was inevitable, so I settled on him. The day before the wedding, I went to the church—only to be stunned by the sight before me. The entire place had been transformed into something sinister and grotesque. The walls were plastered with terrifying photos of corpses, the floor littered with wax figures of severed arms and legs, and even the flowers had been dyed black, dripping with blood-red stains. But the most infuriating part was the image hanging right at the center of the church—an AI-generated picture of me, pinned beneath my fiancé, as he whipped me. My whole body trembled with fury. I stormed at the staff still working on the decorations, ordering them to stop immediately. Just then, his best friend, Nina Cullen, walked in. "Don't stop. Yves prefers this wedding style." I froze, staring at her in disbelief. "How is that possible? Who in their right mind would decorate something as joyous as a wedding with gore? This is insane!" Nina only gave a cold, arrogant laugh. "That's the theme. If you want to marry him, you'll have to accept it." Speechless, I immediately called Yves. "Yves, I'm not interested in getting married in a haunted house. You'd better restore the church to normal; otherwise, this wedding is off."

Briana George believes she belongs in the Moonveil Pack—a place she calls home. As the daughter of fallen heroes, she looks forward to her eighteenth birthday, expecting to begin Beta training, claim her place in the pack, and build a future with her childhood friend and fated mate, Drake Summer. But destiny doesn't always bring joy. In one night, Briana's dreams are torn apart. Betrayed by Laura, the jealous fiancee Drake was forced to claim, and condemned by Marcus, the very Alpha her parents died protecting, Briana is branded a traitor, demoted from Beta to Omega, and cast out as a rogue. Worst of all, Drake-her mate-rejects her before the entire pack, choosing duty and fear over the bond that should have been unbreakable. Exiled and hunted, Briana escapes with her godmother Linda and a few loyal allies, finding strength, resilience, and the hope of a new family in the wilderness. Still haunted by Drake’s rejection, she soon faces a far greater threat when Morgan, the ruthless Alpha of Shadow Moon, rises to power—and sets his sights on Briana herself. Torn between the past she lost, the bonds she is forging, and the power she is only beginning to claim, Briana stands on the edge of a destiny far greater-and far more dangerous-than she ever imagined. But when the shadows close in and her enemies circle, only one question remains: Will Briana George rise from the ashes to lead, or will she fall prey to the Alphas who would rather see her broken than free?
