It all began with a single post about canceling a food delivery order. Overnight, I became the internet's punching bag. Thousands of vicious messages flooded my inbox, filled with photoshopped memorials urging me to die. They doxxed my family, plastered my personal details across shady websites, and used AI to create obscene images of me, spreading them in vile chat groups. They spread lies about my income, claiming it came from illicit sources, and accused me of carrying diseases. I didn't call the police or block the messages. Instead, I read every hateful word before singling out the 100 worst offenders. Every day, I sent each one a luxurious meal: Boston lobster, Australian wagyu, the works. Each delivery came with a simple note: [Thank you for your hard work.]

I was trying to escape my abusive Alpha ex when I hit something with my truck. It was not a deer, but a zareth. Seven feet of muscle, claws, and a growl that can split open the sky. His kind are our sworn enemies from another realm with a screech that can make a werewolf’s brain explode. I should have killed him. Instead, I looked into his yellow eyes… and the mate bond snapped into place. Now I’ve dragged him home to hide him from my pack. He doesn’t speak. He doesn’t follow rules and he definitely doesn’t care that my bed is mine. My new "friend" doesn't care about personal space, but I am NOT going to be making babies with a monster. Fighting the mate bond can't be that hard, right?

As enemies close in and dark secrets resurface, one truth becomes clear: Love was never part of the plan… but fate has rules of its own.
