I was preparing a gift for our six-year anniversary when my best friend sent me a photo of my Alpha boyfriend kissing another she-wolf. "Wait, when did you get to Chicago?" The she-wolf in the picture looked a lot like me, but it wasn't me. That's when I found out that my boyfriend of six years had been searching for replacements for his dead childhood sweetheart the whole time. I was number 5. The she-wolf in the photo was number 18. I rushed to Chicago and tracked down Lucas using his phone's location. "Dude, this number 18 really looks like Ally, even more than Sophia does!" "Nah man, Sophia still looks more like her. She's number 5 after all - if she didn't look so much like Ally, why would Lucas have stuck with her for six years?" Lucas flicked his cigarette ash, looking completely relaxed: "They both look pretty similar, but number 18's way better in bed. Sophia's too uptight." "I heard you had someone pick out a diamond ring. You planning to propose? To Sophia or this new chick?" Lucas leaned back into the couch with a cocky grin: "Haven't decided yet. Why don't you guys choose for me?" I turned around, my whole body shaking as a chill ran from my head to my toes. After calming down, I texted my best friend: "Your Alpha cousin, the one who had a crush on me and waited four years - is he still single?"

Si Isabella “Bella” Alcaraz ay halos nabuhay sa likod ng anino ng kanyang “almost perfect” na nakatatandang kapatid, si Marisella—ang glamorosa, walang kapintasan at ubod ng bait na mukha ng Alcazar Luxe Events. Kilala ang kanilang pamilya pero sa likod ng lahat ng ito, unti-unting bumabagsak at nababaon sa hindi mabilang na utang. Pinili ng kanilang mga magulang na ipakasal si Marisella kay Leonardo “Leon” Veyra, ang makapangyarihan, walang awa at nakakatakot na CEO ng Veyra Global Holdings. Halos lahat ng negosyo mula finance, hotels at real estate ay saklaw ng kayamanan niya. Ngunit sa mismong araw ng kasal, naglaho na parang bula si Marisella. Para maprotektahan ang pangalan ng pamilya mula sa iskandalo, walang nagawa si Isabella kundi ang maglakad patungo sa altar kapalit ng kanyang kapatid. Natatago sa belo ng sutla at kasinungalingan, siya ang naging “substitute bride” ng isang lalaking kayang ibaon sa hukay ang pamilya niya sa isang salita lamang. Hindi madaling malinlang si Leon. Alam niyang ang babaeng nasa tabi niya ay hindi ang ipinangako sa kanya. Ngunit imbes na itigil ang seremonya, inako niya si Isabella bilang kanyang asawa. Sa mundo, isa itong perpektong kasal, isang fairy tale. Pero sa likod ng mga pinto, isa itong mapanganib na laro ng sekreto, kapangyarihan at obsession. Sa ilalim ng kasal na nabuo sa panlilinlang, kailangan tiisin ni Isabella ang malamig na galit, nag-iinit na pagnanasa at walang hanggang pagdududa ni Leon. Ngunit habang lumilipas ang mga araw, ang galit at pagdududa ay unti-unting lumalabo. Kasabay nito, patuloy na bumabalot ang pagkawala ni Marisella—runaway bride nga ba, o mas malalim pa? Sa bawat pangakong binibigkas, maaaring nakataya ang pamilya, kalayaan… at puso ni Isabella.

"I need you," he whispered as I felt the pressure of him at my entrance. "It hurts," I whimpered. "I will go as slow as you could endure," he said trailing soft kisses to my shoulder all the way to my ear. "Why can I not be free to find my mate? This is unfair to him," I said placing my hands on the king's firm chest. "Because you are mine, McKenna," he whispered. "I am for no one," I rebutted. "I will never hurt you, my love. If you want me to stop all you must do is ask," he said gathering my hands in his before he eased himself inside me. The myth of the bastards has been long gone from the texts of history.
