What A Shame Artinya

Cara Wylder is the last female in the prestigious Wylder lineage, a family blessed with a rare and powerful she-wolf known as the Golden Luna. This ancient blessing grants her lineage immense power, as any Alpha bonded to her is destined to rule with unmatched strength. However, Cara’s legacy is threatened by a secret—she cannot shift into her wolf form. As rumors of her wolflessness begin to spread, her father, Alpha Roy Wylder, offers her hand in marriage to Darius Wrent, the powerful Lycan King, in an effort to preserve her reputation and the family's standing. On their wedding day, Darius, suspicious of her lack of a wolf’s presence, demands that Cara shift in front of the gathered wolves. When she fails to do so, he publicly rejects her, leaving her disgraced and humiliated. As the other powerful Alphas look on, uninterested in a wolfless bride, Darius mockingly asks if any would dare take her hand. To everyone’s surprise, Lucien Valen, a weakened Alpha who lost most of his power after the death of his fated mate, steps forward to claim her. Lucien, once a contender for Alpha King, has been ridiculed for years, holding onto his title solely due to the loyalty of his people. Ignoring the scorn of the other Alphas, Lucien marries Cara and takes her to his castle. Though she expects a life of shame, Cara soon discovers that Lucien is not cruel, neither is he weak Alpha the others believe him to be. His power remains but is locked under the grief from the loss that haunts him and his inability to enact revenge even after all this years. As they get closer, unsettling truths about Lucien's past and the mastermind behind the fall of the once legendary Alpha is exposed.

My name is Cassie Aster. I was born Cassandra Burton. I wasn’t born rich, or with a powerful name. But I was born smart—some would say lucky. At fifteen, I entered a contest for a scholarship to the most prestigious school in the country: Aster Academy of Excellence. Out of more than four hundred applicants, only five were chosen. By sixteen, I was walking through its gates. That’s where I met him—Jacob Aster. The son of the school’s owners. The heir to one of the wealthiest families on Earth. I fell for him immediately, but I rejected him—over a hundred times. My studies, my scholarship, my future came first. To him, that meant only one thing: he had to buy my love. Over a decade later, we’re married. And to the world, I’m the luckiest girl alive—proof that fairy tales come true. From rags to riches, just like that. But I never thought of myself as having only rags. And I didn’t marry him for his riches. Still, every time he strays, he buys my forgiveness—for $100,000. For him, I gave up my career. For him, I live like a caged bird, taken out only for display. For him, I die a little every day. Every time my card doesn’t decline, my heart does. Most of his women at least have the shame to stay out of my sight. But not her. Coral Monroue is shameless. He favors her now. And I can’t help but wonder— will she be the one who finally pushes me to leave?

“I want to see our baby.” Ralph asked Klara with subtle hesitation and hope filled eyes. He who never feared a soul in the entire world is now having a hard time to be under the scrutiny of his little wolf. How can he make her love him again if she loathes him this much? Klara couldn’t believe her ears. Did she just hear him say…? How could he? How dare he? “You mean MY baby?” She asked, smirking with pleasure when she saw the pain in Ralph’s eyes. He deserves it. In fact it’s a lot less than the pain she had to endure because of him. “Little wolf, plea-” “Just because I agreed to meet you doesn’t mean I forgave you. You are nothing but a man who is better off dead in my eyes. So, save your face and leave.” Ralph lowered his head in shame and guilt. She has every right to be mad at him and make him feel like a dirt under her shoe but it’s hurting him. Very much. He can tolerate anything from her but not her hate. ……… Two broken hearts waiting to be united. Two wounded souls waiting to be healed. Remorse and loath filled lives fighting against each other only to find each other, again. To find peace and love amidst the hurt and broken hearts. With time, anger can be dissipated and loath can be dissolved but can a betrayal ever disappear? Don’t wait more and dig into Ralph’s Repentance to be a part of Ralph and Klara’s love-hate relationship and the unveiling of the mystery behind Julia AKA Ralph’s mother’s murder.

Eighteen-year-old Zenith Valencia has always lived life with one foot in the shadows. A quiet soul with a paintbrush and a guarded heart, she finds comfort in sunsets, solitude, and the safety of emotional distance, until a chance encounter at the town’s old observatory changes everything. One moment, she's sketching the horizon. The next, she's being swept into the arms of a mysterious stranger, one whose very presence radiates danger, mystery, and something far more primal. He calls her mate. Alejandro Wolfgang isn’t just a werewolf, he’s a walking contradiction. Born of two worlds, rejected by his alpha father, and forced into silence by years of brutal abuse, Alejandro teeters on the edge of losing his humanity. For three long years, his wolf has kept him from falling into the abyss, but it’s Zenith, his fated mate, who finally pulls him back from the brink. To Zenith, Alejandro is odd, soft-spoken, maybe even autistic. But beneath the quiet eyes and childlike innocence lies a fierce, wounded soul with a secret that could upend both their lives. A glowing sapphire bracelet, a mother’s buried shame, and a night long forgotten hold the key to Alejandro’s true identity, and his dangerous potential. As Alejandro finds peace in Zenith’s presence, something ancient stirs within him. And as their bond deepens, so does the danger. Because Alejandro’s enemies aren’t just from his past…they’re hunting his future. In a world where wolves reign in secret and humans are forbidden, Zenith is more than just Alejandro’s mate, she may be the antidote to a curse older than either of them can imagine. His curse was eternal. Her touch was the cure.

It was only on our first wedding anniversary that I realized the rubbers I bought before our wedding had long expired. No one would believe that my mafia husband, Andre Garcia, and I had never consummated our marriage. That night, I gathered my courage and bought a suggestive nightgown. After downing three glasses of whisky, I hugged Andre tightly and whispered in his ear, "Darling, let's do it today. I want you..." However, Andre shook my hand off indifferently as if he were handling a gun. "Danielle Lawson, do you have no shame? You've done such shameless things time and time again. If you're really that lonely, I'll order you some toys so you can play with them to your heart's content." My face turned deathly pale as I stood there, stunned. I could not understand why a wife begging for her husband's affection was considered 'shameless' behavior. I curled up on the couch, unable to help but ask on social media. Danielle: [My husband has no dysfunction. Why won't he touch me after marriage?] Someone replied: [Perhaps your husband has someone else.] Like a dagger, that comment pierced me awake. I suddenly realized—maybe the problem was not that I was unattractive but rather that he was never mine. The moment I deleted my account, I also made the decision to leave. Who could have imagined that Andre, who would usually not even glance at me, would frantically search for me after I disappeared? "Danielle, I can't get a hard-on after you left!"

On the day of my seventh wedding anniversary, my husband's lover gave my son a pet cat. My pregnancy made me allergic to cat fur, and rashes appeared all over my body. Sensing that it might lead to a miscarriage, I told my son to return the cat. "I'm keeping it!" my five-year-old son, Zachary, protested. He pushed me and said, "I hate having you as my mom! I want Aunt Lynn to be my mom!" My husband, Quinton Locke, tore into me. "Why did you have to develop an allergy now, out of all times? Is your jealousy blinding you to the point where you won't even consider your son 's feelings? You're being unreasonable!" He carried Zachary up and left with the cat. They had eschewed me in favor of Lynn Shelbert, Quinton's lover and the 'apple of his eye'. I collapsed on the ground, watching as blood began to soak my pants. At that moment, I knew I had suffered a miscarriage. I felt an unimaginable pain while I was in the hospital. My husband and son went traveling with Lynn, resembling a happy family of three. Lynn sent me a message. [Do you know why Quinton married you even though he's hopelessly in love with me? Well, I wanted a son and a daughter, but I didn't want to bear the risks that come with pregnancy. It's a shame you had a miscarriage.] Despair engulfed me that very instant. I hired a lawyer to prepare the divorce papers and took a flight back to my hometown. My sole wish was to never see Quinton and Zachary again.

He has waited for his mate for three decades, but when he has met her, he has been disappointed. On a journey to another land, he caught the scent of his mate, but was confused between Princess Alpha and a common servant.

She feels betrayed when her mate chooses to watch while another woman makes her life a living hell. One day, when Damian learns who Nadlyn really is: Will he love her?

I was known throughout the Shadow Pack as the perfect, obedient she-wolf. So obedient, in fact, that when my mate David left me during our eighty-eighth Bonding Ceremony, I still chose to forgive him. Until that fateful day—our eighty-ninth ceremony—when an anonymous werewolf gifted us a wedding present worth five hundred million dollars. The screen meant to play our sweet memories suddenly switched to a live broadcast: Amy, auctioning off her virginity for exactly five hundred million dollars. In our Pack, the first night symbolizes the deepest loyalty and love between true mates. If a she-wolf loses her first night to someone other than her mate, she is shunned by the entire Pack—branded with shame and rejection. Tears shimmered in Amy’s eyes as she looked straight into the camera, like it was her final goodbye. “David, if I can’t be your mate, then my purity means nothing.” “I only hope… you’ll never forget me.” David didn’t even hesitate. He threw away our moonstone ring and bolted from the ceremony hall. The Pack murmured in stunned disbelief. Everyone knew one thing: I loved David—but David only had eyes for his so-called savior, Amy. Now, the only question anyone whispered about was whether we’d make it to the ninetieth Bonding Ceremony. But I knew the truth— There would never be a ninetieth. So I left, my heart shattered in silence. But later, I heard he had regretted everything he had done— And had been desperately searching for me ever since. Because the truth was, I was the one who saved his life—not Amy.
