My younger brother, Luke, committed suicide after being falsely accused of plagiarizing Layla's brother's music. My own life was a living hell. I was a respected music critic, but now I was the sister of "the plagiarist." My reputation was in tatters. My colleagues whispered behind my back, and my articles were dismissed as the ramblings of a biased, grieving relative. The one person who had always stood by me was my husband, Julian, a successful music producer. We had been together since college, and he was my rock, my refuge in the storm. I thought he would believe me. But, he didn't. But the real betrayal came the evening, just another day of being ridiculed online, I came home to find Julian on the phone. His voice was low and urgent, laced with a coldness I had never heard before. "The case is closed, Layla. It’s over," he said. "The evidence has been submitted. No one will ever know that it was your brother who plagiarized Luke's music."

“Omega, in about an hour, you’ll feel warm, dizzy, and overcome with hormones in your body.” I paled. “What happens after it takes effect?” “Then an alpha in the surrounding area will react to your scent.” After an hour, the nurse popped her head in. She had a strange look in her eyes and I didn’t like it. “So he is out there?” The nurse’s smile fell, “No, not one.” My eyes widened. “two?” “No, you have four mates.” I shook my head. “No, that’s not possible!” She sighed and opened her phone. “Your mates are as follows; Colby Mcgrath, Rain Kim, Matthew Clark, and Jade Johnson.” When she said the first name I started to feel faint but then the nurse kept rattling off all the names of my tormenters for years. How could I be tied to all of my brother’s friends? My panties got wet, I refused to accept that this was a hormonal reaction.

Après avoir obtenu mon diplôme, j'ai passé un an en stage avec mon mentor, un guérisseur, dans les Terres neutres – sans tribus, sans lois et sans gardes du corp pour me protéger. Mon frère, le Président Lycan de tous les loups-garous, en a presque perdu la raison. Il avait peur que je tombe amoureuse d'un rôdeur et que je forme impulsivement un lien de compagnon imprudent. C'est pourquoi il m'a personnellement choisi un compagnon – Arthur St-Clair, l'Alpha de la tribu la plus puissante du Nordlac. C'est un homme beau et dangereux, une figure légendaire. Mon frère m'a ordonné de rentrer à la maison pour la cérémonie d'union, donc je n'ai eu d'autre choix que d'aller choisir une couronne de Luna. À la bijouterie, mon regard a été immédiatement attiré par une couronne en argent pur et couverte de diamants. Juste au moment où j'ai tendu la main pour la prendre, une voix féminine stridente a retenti. « J'aime bien celle qu'elle tient. Je la prends. Donnez-la-moi. » Avant que je puisse réagir, le vendeur a arraché la couronne de mes mains, me griffant presque ma peau. Je me suis redressée, me forçant à rester calme. « Vous connaissez l'expression « premier arrivé, premier servi » ? C'est moi qui l'ai vue en premier. C'est comme ça que vous faites ici ? » La louve s'est tournée lentement vers moi, me lançant un regard moqueur. « Cette couronne coûte 300 000 euros. Tu es sûre de pouvoir te l'offrir, paysanne ? J'ai grandi avec l'Alpha de la tribu Lune Argentée, Arthur St-Clair. Ici, c'est moi qui fais les règles. » Je la regardais, manquant de rire aux éclats. N'était-ce pas absurde ? Après tout, Arthur était mon fiancé. J'ai sorti mon téléphone et j'ai appelé Arthur. « Écoute, Arthur. Ta chère amie d'enfance vient de voler la couronne de Luna que je veux porter pour notre cérémonie. Que penses-tu que je devrais faire ? »

Jake, the guy I used to work with. The guy that I had unspoken tension and chemistry with from the first day we met. I say unspoken because nothing was ever said or done about it at the time. Why? because we were both in relationships. The last time I saw him was over a year ago, and a lot has changed since then, well some things. I was single, he was still taken, and that should be enough to keep me at bay, right? Wrong! One night we meet at the club and everything changes. I become the kind of woman I never thought I was, the kind to go after another woman's man. And he becomes something he never thought he was either, a cheater. It was only supposed to be a one-time thing, but it was like the moment we had a taste, we keep coming back for more. Temptation is a hard thing to fight, and I guess in this case, it is a fight that we both lost.
