Witchy Altar

On the day of the mating ceremony, a crazed witch bursts in and points straight at me, shrieking, "Six years later, your Alpha will betray you!" Troy Hudson, my soon-to-be mate, turns livid. He swats the purple-glowing crystal ball from her hand, shattering it on the floor. "Nonsense! Estelle is my fated mate! I'll only ever love her in this lifetime!" After that, he becomes even more devoted to me. At the Moon Goddess' altar, he drapes the Luna shawl over my shoulders. He marks me with his scent so the entire pack knows I belong to him. Every full moon, he deepens the mark on my neck, whispering that I am his forever. I believe his love is unbreakable until our sixth anniversary. A box waits at our front door. Inside lies a pair of lace panties and a photograph. In the photo, Troy is pressed over his foster sister, Rue Youngblood, the wolf tattoo on his body glowing faintly. His hand grips her waist, his eyes burning with the same heat I've dreamed of a million times. And Rue? She's wearing that same pair of panties. On the back of the photo, written in ink as red as blood, is a line of pure provocation. "The Alpha's heart may belong to you, but his body belongs to me." Agony ripped through my chest, yet not a single tear fell. Instead, I rest my hand on my belly and quietly send word to the Witch Association. "I accept your invitation. Please help me vanish."

Dylan Fontanilla had everything a man could ever ask for... a successful career, a promising future, and the woman he loved more than his own life. To him, his world was already perfect. Until one morning, that perfection was torn apart. He woke up to the cruel truth that his girlfriend was about to marry another man. The reason was even more painful: she had betrayed him, and her parents had forced her into marriage after discovering her infidelity. In a single breath, Dylan lost the love he thought would be his forever. Then, on one reckless and drunken night, fate led him to Kaia Clemente, the longtime best friend and forbidden lover of his ex-girlfriend’s fiancé. Two broken souls collided, bound by the same betrayal. From that night, a dangerous plan was born. If he could no longer have the woman he loved, then he would take the woman meant for the man who stole her. If this was a war of stolen hearts, Dylan vowed he would never be the one to lose. What began as a game of revenge turned into a game of desire. Love was never part of the plan. Yet fate had its own twisted sense of humor. What Dylan never expected was that their reckless scheme would lead them not to destruction… but to the altar, standing before God, exchanging vows neither of them planned, yet both would soon be unable to escape. Because in a game that began with betrayal, only one question remained: Was their marriage built on revenge… or was it destined to become real love?

She couldn't love him. His heart didn't belong to her. It belonged to another woman; one that had loved him for years. And in her heart, the heart that he was slowly stealing with each sweet word and every act of kindness, she knew he loved that woman still.

There was more connecting them than even she knew. A truth that had been buried in his family since he was born. Would she still want him when she found out the truth?

“Fuck…please…” He risks a nibble, sending shockwaves to my core. My back arches off the wall with a sharp moan. His hand slides between my legs, cupping my soaking panties. “Look how wet you are,” he whispers, “...shaking, and I haven’t even fucked you yet.” He strokes my clit gently first, then harder. My toes curl, hair spilling into my sweaty face. He’s breaking me, ruining me with just his tongue and fingers. I can’t speak. I can’t think. I just tremble in his arms. ********* The night I caught my fiancé cheating, something in me broke. I cried. I screamed. I drove — into the rain, into nowhere, into him. Cassian Cross.

Until he showed up at my mom’s wedding… As my new stepbrother. Now, Cassian won’t stop. He corners me in hallways, whispers filth at the altar, and looks at me like he still owns my body.
