My daughter, Wendy Lawson, was a rising star in the piano world. But on the day of the piano competition grand finals, someone locked her in a restroom. She was so shaken she missed her chance at the championship. I checked the CCTV footage and found out exactly who was behind it. I was ready to file a formal complaint for malicious sabotage. But my husband stepped in and shut me down cold. “It was just a squabble between two kids. If you report Theresa’s sister, I’ll make sure Wendy doesn’t even get second place!” I was so furious my whole body trembled. I never imagined Phillip would go this far to bully his own daughter to protect his secretary’s sister! Just then, Wendy held onto my hand as she fought back tears. “Mom, I don’t want the championship anymore… and I don’t want Dad either.” I tightened my grip around her small hand. “All right. If you do not want him, then I do not want him either!”

They were raised to protect her. They never realized she was the one holding the pack together. Born of the Beta line, Lexara Veyne was trained to steady Alphas when instinct burned too hot and loyalty fractured under pressure. With a mind sharp enough to read power like strategy and a gift known as Resonance, she can calm rage, expose lies, and turn chaos into control. When cracks form in the ruling Alpha line, Lexara is pulled into the heart of pack politics—where strength is measured not just by dominance, but by restraint. Surrounded by overprotective brothers who believe they’re guarding her, Lexara navigates shifting alliances, forbidden attraction, and enemies who mistake her calm for weakness. But she doesn’t need to raise her voice to command attention. She doesn’t need to bare her fangs to win. As old laws begin to fail and the pack edges toward war, Lexara must decide how far she’s willing to go to protect what she’s built—especially when hatred turns to desire, and love itself becomes a dangerous variable. Because when a Beta’s flame is pushed too far… it doesn’t burn out. It burns through.

There are no grown men in our village. When girls turn 18, they participate in a coming-of-age ceremony in the ancestral hall. Dressed in ceremonial clothes, they line up to enter, and when they come out, their faces show a mix of pain and joy. When my eldest sister turned 18, Grandma forbade her from attending. However, one night, she snuck into the hall. When she came out, she was limping, and blood was dripping between her legs.

As soon as I graduated from university, I suggested to my three roommates that we should rent a place together. The place I found was near our workplace, and it was cheap as well. It was much better than the house they used to rent in the suburbs. During the first three months of renting the place together, everything seemed fine. One day, I got off work early and heard them talking in the living room. "I did some research online. The rent of the houses in this area is at least 2 grand a month. But ours is only 800 dollars a month. How about we rent the master bedroom out for 800 dollars? That way, we won't have to pay any rent." "Alright, I'm in! Why does Jessica always get to sleep in the master bedroom? Even if she covered all the bills of this house, how much would that cost anyway?" "I've had it with her arrogant attitude. Thinking of her being homeless makes me want to laugh!" I laughed inwardly. 'You want to see me homeless? But I'm the landlord!'
