The Electric State Penny

Nia knew that her mate, Alpha Lyord of the Northwind Pack, did not want her, yet she continued to love him. She tolerated the rejection and mockery from the pack, who referred to her as a hybrid without a wolf and infertile, nothing more than a shadow of Lyord's former fiancée, Rachel. The title of Luna that she bore was merely a formality, while Rachel enjoyed all the recognition and responsibilities that should rightfully belong to Nia. After the fall of her pack, the Eastwood Pack, and her father's death, Nia was cast out by the pack and forced to divorce Lyord. In a state of heartbreak and despair, Nia decided to leave Lyord's life. However, one day, Lyord saw her with an adorable little boy in her arms. Lyord's eyes ignited with an unexpected madness, initiating an intense pursuit filled with obsession. Could Lyord win back his Luna and their child?

Today, I am going to marry the man I love, Damon Mark Olson. We didn’t have it easy. I am the veritable Cinderella and he was my handsome prince. People frowned on our relationship. Even his mother never failed to show her dislike for me at every opportunity. But Damon fought hard for me. At the church, I heard the first notes of Pachelbel's Canon in D and started my bridal walk. Damon looked dapper in his suit but he looked distracted, and his hair looked kind of mussed. Tenderness swept over me. When I reached his side, he took my hand. An electric current coursed through our connected skin. Damon looked startled, and I almost laughed, The priest gave us his blessings. And to Damon, he said, “You may now kiss your bride.” I held my breath as Damon very gently lifted my veil. Our eyes connected, and I saw a swirling mass of emotions in his gaze before his head dipped and gave me a kiss that jarred me. He kissed expertly, too expertly, that my eyes flew to his face. And that was when realization sank in. I was not kissing Damon Mark Olson. I was kissing someone who looked exactly like him.

Just as my wealthy boyfriend and I were talking about getting married, his mother dismissed me as an unrefined girl and demanded I attend a finishing school to learn how to be a proper wife. Looking at Zach’s pleading gaze, I gave in. I endured relentless psychological and physical torment for three months. However, on the day I was discharged, I overheard a phone call between Zach and his friend. “Zach, if you don’t want to marry Cathy, why didn’t you just tell her? Why did you have to send her to that hellhole to suffer? That finishing school your family runs is a freaking torture chamber. Constant beatings, electric shocks, forced kneeling for hours… No one comes out of there the same.” “You don’t get it. Jen is about to get engaged, and I can’t risk Cathy ruining it. As long as Jen is happy, I don’t care who I marry. Cathy grew up poor, so she can endure a little hardship. Three months of hardship for a lifetime of Stein money is a fair trade.” My vision blurred with tears when I heard those cruel words from his mouth. I thought. “Zach, since you loved Jenna so much, why did you have to toy with my feelings?”

But one night at a high-society masquerade ball, his world is upended by a magnetic encounter with a woman in a silver mask.
