After a one-night stand, I left a three-thousand tip for a flawless male model and even set up another night that weekend. I thought it was nothing more than a pleasant exchange between two willing adults. That was before my overprotective, old-fashioned brother saw the marks covering me and exploded: "Track down the bastard who hurt my sister. I want him hunted down and ripped apart!" The police stared at the photo for a long moment before one of them spoke softly: "Isn't this… Frederick, the Alpha King of the Bloodmoon Wolf Kingdom?" That was when it hit me.

“I fled my engagement party and found him on a basketball court at midnight.” I had three months of freedom before I was married off in a business arrangement like it was nothing more than a possession. My escape was Crescent Bay University, a last ditch effort at taking control of my life before it got snatched from me. I wasn’t prepared for a 6’4, amber eyed basketball captain, who was known to be closed off. But if it’s true that he doesn’t do relationships and he has no interes in women, why can’t he take his eyes off me? When his eyes met mine, something electric sparked between us. Something dangerous. Something neither of us could walk away from. Then his eyes flashed gold, and I realized my temporary escape had led me somewhere far more dangerous than I’d ever imagined.

They said I was beautiful — but not real. That my smile was perfect — but my past made me broken. I spent years trying to prove I was more than the girl who changed her face to survive the world’s cruelty. I married Julian Vale, believing love would finally see me. I called Serena Blake my sister, trusting her more than my own reflection. And when my world collapsed under secrets, silence, and the weight of never being enough — I disappeared. Then I opened my eyes… Ten years earlier. Before the surgery. Before the vows. Before I forgot who I was beneath the makeup and the mask of confidence. This time, I don’t need to be fixed. This time, I don’t need to be forgiven. I remember every lie. Every betrayal. Every time I silenced my voice to keep the peace. So I’m not here to win back love. I’m not here to punish the past. I’m here to become the woman I was always meant to be — unedited, unafraid, and finally, completely seen. I was more than pretty. This time, I’ll live like I believe it.
