I was the daughter of the Ashford Pack Alpha — the most beautiful she-wolf in the entire southern territory. Alphas lined up to pursue me, and I couldn't be bothered to give any of them a second glance. Until my best friend dared me: "Sera, I've got a bet for you. Think you can make my brother Kieran fall for you? Win, and I'll give you my mother's healing moonstone necklace. Lose, and you hand over that limited-edition sports car you love so much." Countless beautiful she-wolves had tried to get into his bed. Every last one of them had been turned away cold. The very first night after I took the bet, I saved Kieran from a silver poisoning, and spent the rest of that night tangled up with him while he burned through his heat. For the two years that followed, he grew more and more obsessed with me. On the long conference table in the pack meeting room, he pinned me down against the papers. In every room of his private estate, we left traces of ourselves behind. I gradually fell in love with him during countless intimate moments. Until the night only to overhear his conversation with the pack elder. "Alpha, it's time to announce who will be Luna." The Elder's voice was low and deliberate. "Miss Seraphina has been by your side for two years now. According to pack tradition—" "Enough." Kieran cut him off. "She and I were just having fun." The Elder was quiet for a moment. "And your first love? When you two separated, she asked for two years apart to try other partners. Those two years are up now. Isn't it time for her to come back?" "Yes." Warmth finally crept into Kieran's voice. "It's time for her to come back." That was when I realized — his so-called true love was my half-sister. The person I hated most in the world. For two years, I had been just his experiment while he "tried someone else". I turned and walked away without a second thought. But this powerful Alpha went mad — tearing through the entire wolf world searching for me.

"Mr. Johnson, we're in the office–" Ethan takes another step towards me, making me step backwards; although we both know it's fruitless. "So what? You may be the Director, but have you forgotten the terms of our contract?” He pulls me flush against himself, my heart racing as I reply, "For the next three months, I will do exactly as you say.” He tugs on my hair to tilt my head back, brushing his lips against the exposed curve of my neck. The sensation is electrifying, melting my initial inhibitions. "Good." In one swift motion, he spins me around; and before I know it, Ethan has cuffed my wrists to the desk, leaving me breathless and utterly at his mercy… "Ethan..." "Let it go, Ashley…" That's all I need to push me over the edge. Both my mind and body are under his spell, and I'm going to let him claim me… *** Ashley Waverly’s world shatters when her parents die suddenly.

Damien y su exesposa se divorciaron hace cinco años, y luego él se casó conmigo. Cuando nos casamos, él tenía una hija adoptiva de 13 años llamada Lily. Después de nuestro matrimonio, Damien me trató excepcionalmente bien y yo siempre traté a Lily como si fuera mi propia hija; incluso cuando en ocasiones ella mostraba hostilidad hacia mí, no me importaba. Eso es normal en una chica adolescente, después de todo. Hasta que mi padre fue accidentalmente atropellado por un coche y quedó en estado vegetativo. Fue allí que, por casualidad, escuché una conversación entre Damien y su asistente. —Jefe, no lo entiendo. ¿Por qué bloquear la craneotomía? —preguntó el asistente, sonando confundido—. Los médicos dicen que hay una alta probabilidad de que él pueda recuperarse. ¿Por qué insiste en un tratamiento conservador? —Él no puede despertar —la voz de Damien estaba contenida por el dolor—. Vio el rostro de Lily. Me cubrí la boca con la mano, clavando las uñas profundamente en mi carne. Lily es la hija adoptiva de Damien y de su difunta exesposa, Sarah. Sarah murió salvando a Damien, por lo que él siempre ha tratado a Lily con una mezcla de culpa y total indulgencia. Damien continuó, con un tono increíblemente conflictivo: —¡Pero Lily no lo hizo a propósito! Solo tiene trece años… Si obtiene antecedentes penales, su vida se acabará. El único deseo de Sarah antes de morir fue que yo cuidara de Lily y la viera crecer sana y salva. No puedo renunciar a ella. El asistente guardó silencio durante unos segundos. —¿Y qué hay de su esposa? —Voy a compensarla por esto —la voz de Damien se suavizó—. Le proporcionaré la vida más próspera y conseguiré la sala privada más grande junto con los mejores cuidadores para su padre, quien sufrió el accidente automovilístico. No me importa cuánto cueste. Mi corazón se hundió por completo. ¿Solo porque te sientes culpable con Sarah y Lily vas a sacrificar a mi padre? Con las manos temblorosas, guardé la grabación que tomé y le pedí a mi abogado que preparara los papeles del divorcio. Sin embargo, cuando desaparecí por completo de su vida, el una vez poderoso CEO se volvió loco.

Before my wedding, I went to find my fiancé with a pregnancy test in hand, intending to surprise him. Instead, I overheard a heated argument between two men on the terrace. "My dear brother, didn't you personally send her to my bed just to get revenge for Elena?" The man, identical to my fiancé, twirled a USB drive in his hand, a wicked smirk playing on his lips. I had been with my fiancé for seven years, yet I had no idea he had a twin brother. What was worse, I never realized that during those passionate nights when I thought my fiancé was finally showing me affection, the man lying beside me was actually his twin. And all of this happened simply because their "savior" despised me. To repay his debt to her, my fiancé tacitly allowed this humiliation. It turned out that the love I had cherished for seven years was nothing more than a twisted game of revenge the brothers had orchestrated together, all to please another woman.
