À la veille de notre cinquième anniversaire d'union, je m'apprêtais à lui annoncer mon héritage : la meute de mon père Alpha. C'était alors que je les ai surpris, lui et la louve qui jadis m'avait tant humiliée, échangeant un baiser passionné. « Cinq ans à jouer cette comédie, il est temps d'y mettre fin. » « La voir accourir comme un chien obéissant était si ennuyeux. Quelle idiote... Se laisser berner par un faux certificat d'union ! Croire qu'une orpheline pourrait devenir la Luna de la Meute de l'Ombre Lunaire ? Si elle n'avait pas eu un minois acceptable, je n'aurais même pas daigné jouer ce rôle. » Chaque mot m'a transpercée comme une lame de glace. Un tremblement incontrôlable m'a parcouru l'échine. Cette lumière dont je croyais avoir été sauvée des ténèbres du harcèlement... n'était qu'un leurre perfide, un mirage d'infidélité... Dans ce cas, je rejetterais sans regret cette comédie mensongère !

Mark has been on his own for 5 years living life on the run as a Rogue until he stumbles into a packs territory where his life changes.

On my wedding day, my arranged fiancé abandoned me and chose my sister instead. As I became the laughingstock of every elite guest in attendance, my business partner James Crawford shocked everyone by publicly proposing to me with a passionate declaration of love. After we married, he was incredibly attentive, especially during my pregnancy when he catered to my every need. I thought my suffering had finally ended. Until I overheard his confession to my sister: "I've only ever loved you." James's voice carried a passion I'd never heard him use with me. "Marry her? I was only after her resources, connections, and her talent for making money. She's nothing but a useful cash cow." "Now that she's pregnant, even better." His tone was coldly calculating. "With the baby, she'll be even more dependent on me, more devoted. She'll never leave." Everything I had treasured—our love, our marriage—was all a lie. Learning the truth, I turned and walked away without a word. I was done with this charade. Everything that belonged to me, I would reclaim with my own hands.

I was preparing a gift for our six-year anniversary when my best friend sent me a photo of my Alpha boyfriend kissing another she-wolf. "Wait, when did you get to Chicago?" The she-wolf in the picture looked a lot like me, but it wasn't me. That's when I found out that my boyfriend of six years had been searching for replacements for his dead childhood sweetheart the whole time. I was number 5. The she-wolf in the photo was number 18. I rushed to Chicago and tracked down Lucas using his phone's location. "Dude, this number 18 really looks like Ally, even more than Sophia does!" "Nah man, Sophia still looks more like her. She's number 5 after all - if she didn't look so much like Ally, why would Lucas have stuck with her for six years?" Lucas flicked his cigarette ash, looking completely relaxed: "They both look pretty similar, but number 18's way better in bed. Sophia's too uptight." "I heard you had someone pick out a diamond ring. You planning to propose? To Sophia or this new chick?" Lucas leaned back into the couch with a cocky grin: "Haven't decided yet. Why don't you guys choose for me?" I turned around, my whole body shaking as a chill ran from my head to my toes. After calming down, I texted my best friend: "Your Alpha cousin, the one who had a crush on me and waited four years - is he still single?"
