On The Origin Of Species By Means Of Natural Selection

Iris Whitmore's world shatters when her Alpha husband Damon rejects and exiles her while pregnant, choosing his manipulative half-sister Clarissa instead. Poisoned, framed, and left to die in a storm, Iris is rescued by Donovan Ashford, Alpha of rival Nightshade Pack, who offers sanctuary without demands. Three years later, Iris has transformed from broken omega to confident healer, raising her daughter Haven in peace. When her grandmother Sage appears with shocking news—Iris is actually Alpha-blooded, her true nature suppressed by dark magic—everything changes. As Iris unlocks her powers, she discovers Donovan is her fated mate, their bond hidden by the same spell that stole her identity. Forced to attend the Regional Summit, Iris must confront her past while protecting Haven, whose unprecedented magical abilities make her a target. The conspiracy runs deeper than betrayal: ancient witch-wolf Lucian Cross and Clarissa orchestrated everything to create the perfect sacrifice—Haven—for a dark ritual. With her mate bond finally complete and her Alpha power unleashed, Iris returns not as the victim who fled, but as a force of nature ready to reclaim what's hers. She'll protect her daughter, lead her pack, and prove that what was meant to break her only made her unbreakable. Sometimes the greatest revenge is becoming everything they said you couldn't be.

My in-laws, who have flown back to the country for the Christmas holidays, visit my home on Christmas Eve for dinner. But Selena Collins, the housekeeper, has only prepared two plates of cold shrimp ravioli despite the fact that I've specifically reminded her about my mother-in-law, Lora Fischer's allergy to shrimps. Selena just tells me in a stoic manner, "Mrs. Peterson, I know that you country bumpkins love taking advantage of everything. So, I completely understand that your parents want to mooch off a meal from the Peterson family during the holidays. "But as Mr. Peterson's most caring housekeeper, I have the right to protect the Petersons' assets from getting leeched by outsiders. Yes, this includes a regular meal. "Then again, I have a heart of gold, you see. I won't starve the elders at all. These are leftover shrimp ravioli from last year. Your parents should hurry up and leave after polishing the ravioli off. "Mr. Peterson is very busy with his work. I can't let him deal with your impoverished parents after getting home from a stressful day at work." I'm stunned at first, but I soon realize that Selena has mistaken my in-laws for my parents. She's purposefully causing me trouble as always. I'm about to explain the truth to Selena when I see my enraged in-laws turning to leave. But Selena wastes no time in calling the bodyguards over to stop them. "I completely understand that country bumpkins like you two have poor character, but wasting food is a really bad trait. "Since the shrimp ravioli is already prepared for you, please finish them all before leaving."

At 11:00 pm, I've just locked my car and am about to walk away when rows of bright red comments appear right in front of my eyes. "Warning! Your husband, whom you're still in a 30-day cooling-off period with, wants to kidnap you! He'll take nudes of you while livestreaming the entire process before mutilating you into chunks and flushing you down the sewers!" "Well, this gold digger keeps swindling money from her husband while toying with his feelings relentlessly. Now, she even wants a portion of his assets by getting a divorce from him. Serves her right for being a target of revenge!" I'm left feeling shell-shocked. After all, I'm single as a Pringle. How the heck did I even have a husband, to begin with?

“I, Julius Armstrong, reject Doris Charles as my mate.” The laughter came right after. This was the second time my mate rejected me because I cannot talk. In the pack, they call me dumb not because I am stupid, but because I am mute. When I turned eighteen, my first mate rejected me for that reason. Today, it was the Gamma. He is twenty-one, the same age as the Alpha and Beta. This was his third rejection. The first girl was too fat, the second was too short and now, I was dumb. I never wanted to attend the mating ceremony. I knew how it would end, but my stepmother forced me to go, and my stepsisters came just to watch me get mocked again. The next day, wolves who had found their mates returned to officially claim them before the Alpha and pack leaders. I went only because I was forced, just to stand there and watch my stepsister get chosen. Then something happened that no one expected. The Alpha claimed me as his mate in front of everyone. Was I shocked? Yes. Did I believe him? No. Did I think it was a cruel joke? Absolutely. Because no Alpha would choose a rejected, mute girl like me.
