Zusammenfassung Eleanor Hayes hatte alles – Reichtum, Eleganz und eine perfekte Ehe. Oder so schien es zumindest. An ihrem sechsten Hochzeitstag demütigt ihr Ehemann Marcus Hayes sie öffentlich, lässt sich vor der Elite von New York von ihr scheiden und stellt dabei seine Geliebte Cassandra Steele zur Schau. Als „verstoßene Ehefrau“ gebrandmarkt, verschwindet Eleanor aus der Öffentlichkeit – doch sie ist alles andere als besiegt. Was Marcus nicht weiß: Eleanor ist die Tochter von Alexander Hartwell, dem reichsten Mann Amerikas, und sein Imperium wurde durch die stille Unterstützung ihres Vaters aufgebaut. Entschlossen, ihre Macht zurückzuerlangen, kehrt Eleanor als eine ernstzunehmende Kraft zurück und nutzt ihre verborgene Expertise in der Cybersicherheit, um Marcus’ Leben Stück für Stück zu zerstören. Ihr Weg der Rache nimmt eine unerwartete Wendung, als sie Damien Blackwood begegnet, einem zurückgezogen lebenden Milliardär mit einem gefährlichen Ruf. Gezwungen, eine Scheinehe einzugehen, um einen riskanten Geschäftsdeal zu sichern, bewegen sich Eleanor und Damien durch ein Geflecht aus Täuschung, Verführung und Geheimnissen. Doch Damien ist mehr, als er zu sein scheint. Er steht in Verbindung mit Der Schleier, einer geheimnisvollen globalen Organisation, von der Eleanors Vater enthüllt, dass sie dazu bestimmt ist, sie eines Tages zu führen. Während Eleanor Marcus’ Verbrechen und Cassandras Intrigen aufdeckt, entdeckt sie ihre eigene verborgene Identität und die Macht, die sie schon immer in sich trug. Während Marcus ihren Untergang plant, Cassandra giftige Angriffe startet und die Feinde von Der Schleier näher rücken, muss Eleanor eine Entscheidung treffen: Damien vertrauen und ihr Schicksal annehmen – oder sich abwenden und ihren eigenen Weg gehen. In einem Strudel aus Verrat, Rache und Erlösung erhebt sich Eleanor aus den Trümmern ihres zerstörten Lebens, um ihren rechtmäßigen Platz einzunehmen – nicht als verstoßene Ehefrau, sondern als Königin aus eigener Kraft.

Damian, my destined partner, is the alpha that all wolf girls dream of. For him, I went alone to the North, his pack. But for three years after we signed the contract, he remained chaste, staying at least three feet away from me, refusing to mate with me. I thought he was just busy with the affairs of the wolf pack and had no time to care about me. Until I stumbled upon Damian pinning Lyra, his sister, against a rough tree trunk, his mouth savagely devouring her lips like a wild beast. "You know I long for you, Lyra!" he roared. "Why did you force that boring Selena on me?!" At last I understood. The only person he truly loved was Lyra. He hurt me again and again for Lyra, and even when we were trapped in the forest and almost swallowed by the shadow plague, he ran away with Lyra in his arms without looking back. "Whether Selena can escape or not has nothing to do with me. You are the most important person in my world!" I was heartbroken, but he wanted to complete the final mark with me because of guilt. He didn't know that I had already dripped my heart's blood on the moonstone the day I found out about his affair with Lyra. Our mate bond had been completely broken long ago.
