The cramping started during dinner, a dull ache that I initially dismissed as stress from Evan's recent distant behavior. But as the hurricane winds howled outside our windows, rattling the glass with increasing violence, the pain sharpened into something that made me double over, clutching the edge of our dining table. "Evan," I gasped, but he was already reaching for his phone, frowning at the screen with that familiar expression he wore whenever work called. The cramping intensified, and I felt something warm and wet between my legs. My heart stopped. "Evan, I think—I think I might be pregnant, and something's wrong." He glanced up absently, still scrolling through messages. "What? Kyla, I'm dealing with a crisis at the office. The Henderson project is falling apart, and—" His phone buzzed, cutting him off mid-sentence. The look that crossed his face when he saw the caller ID made my blood run cold.

On our seventh wedding anniversary, my husband finally agreed to take a trip with me. But during the journey, Blake abandoned me on a foreign street because his young secretary, Amaya, decided to go on a hunger strike. I looked at the travel itinerary I had carefully planned over the past year and begged him not to leave, to spend this anniversary with me. He shook off my hand. "Anniversaries come around every year, but if Amaya doesn't eat, it could be a big deal!" "You think everyone is as resilient as you, like a workhorse that won't miss a meal." Although impatience tinged his voice, he still brushed a kiss on my forehead when he saw my tear-streaked face. "Wait for me. I'll be back once I calm Amaya down." But as I watched him board his private jet without a backward glance, I knew he wasn’t returning. I glanced at my hands, swollen from pregnancy, and with a bitter smile, tucked the prenatal check-up report back into my backpack. I couldn’t continue this oppressive marriage any longer. *** Seeing the two of them so close in the hospital room, I suppressed the fury rising inside me.

Something was wrong with Luke. I could feel it in the way he'd been distant lately, canceling our dinner plans with terse texts that offered no explanations. The man who once rushed home to me now stayed out until dawn, leaving me alone in our bed with nothing but questions. "Another late night?" I asked, watching him adjust his tie in the mirror. His eyes, once warm amber pools I could lose myself in, now avoided mine. "Work emergency," he replied, not meeting my gaze. "Don't wait up." It was the third time this week. Our wedding was supposed to be in four months, but lately, Luke had seemed more like a stranger than my fiancé. I tried calling him that evening, but it went straight to voicemail. By midnight, I gave up and wandered into his study, a room he'd always kept meticulously organized.

The grandfather clock in the foyer chimed eight-fifteen as I heard Jonathan's footsteps on the front porch. Ten minutes late. Exactly ten minutes past when he'd promised to return from what he'd called "routine border patrol." I stood at the kitchen window, my fingers wrapped around a cooling cup of chamomile tea, watching through the sheer curtains as my mate—my Alpha—approached our pack house. Something was wrong. The way he moved, the slight hesitation before he reached for the door handle, the way he ran his hand through his dark hair as if trying to compose himself. My wolf, Aria, stirred restlessly within me. *Something's off,* she whispered, her voice tight with unease. *His scent...* I inhaled deeply as Jonathan stepped inside, and immediately my senses recoiled. Beneath his familiar pine and cedar scent was something else—something floral and distinctly feminine that didn't belong to me. Jasmine and vanilla, sweet and cloying, clinging to his clothes like a guilty secret.

For three years, I was Dante’s shadow, the woman who took a bullet for the heir to New York’s most powerful crime family. I believed him when he said we would rule together. But while I was bleeding for his empire, he was secretly finalizing a merger to marry Sofia, a pristine Mafia Princess. I found the encrypted report on his desk. It didn't describe me as his partner. It called me a "useful shield" and a "necessary diversion" to protect his real bride. When I tried to walk away, he didn't let me go. He humiliated me. Worse, when Sofia staged a fake attack and blamed me to cover her own lies, Dante didn't ask for proof. He dragged me out of my hospital bed, fresh from surgery, and hauled me to the estate fountain. He shoved my head underwater, drowning the woman who had once saved his life, while Sofia watched from the balcony with a smirk. "You touched what is mine!" he screamed, choosing a liar over the soldier who loved him. I left that night, bleeding and broken, vanishing into the storm without a trace. Two years later, I am a celebrated artist in Paris, and the man standing beside me looks at me like I am the sun, not a shield. Dante stands outside my gallery in the freezing rain, looking ruined, begging for a second chance. He tells me he knows the truth now. He tells me he loves me. I look at him, then at the engagement ring on my finger—one given by a man who never had to break me to love me. "I didn't erase our history, Dante," I say, rolling up the car window. "I survived it."

My sister, the pack's beloved future Luna, was dying of kidney failure. Axel, the Supreme Alpha and the man I had secretly loved my entire life, used his Alpha Command to force the pen into my trembling hand. "Sign the papers, Jana," he growled, his eyes glowing with a predatory red light. "Stop being selfish. Kyleigh needs a transplant, and you are the only match." I tried to beg. I tried to tell him that I couldn't survive the surgery. I tried to tell him that I had already secretly donated a kidney to our father five years ago—a sacrifice my sister had claimed credit for. But Axel threw a stack of falsified medical scans in my face. "Stop lying to save your own skin," he spat. "You are a useless, Wolfless Omega. This is your only chance to be of value to this pack." He didn't know that Kyleigh had been poisoning me with Wolfsbane for a decade to suppress my inner White Wolf. He didn't know that the anesthesia wouldn't work on my poisoned body. I felt every inch of the silver scalpel as they cut me open to harvest my only remaining kidney. I died on that table, listening to the man I loved call me dramatic. But death was not the end. My spirit floated above the chaos, watching as the surgeon's face turned pale with horror. "She only had one!" the doctor screamed, holding up the blackened organ. "Alpha, look at the old scars! We just killed her!" Only after my heart stopped did the scent-masking drugs fade. Axel fell to his knees in the blood-soaked room, finally smelling the scent of rain and pine he had been searching for his whole life. He realized he had just butchered his true mate to save a liar. "Jana?" he howled, clawing at his chest. But I was already gone.

“There’s nothing wrong with breaking her legs to keep her. Or chaining her to the bed. She’s mine.” She was looking for freedom. He gave her obsession, wrapped in tenderness. Genesis Caldwell thought escaping her abusive home meant salvation—but her arranged marriage to billionaire Kieran Blackwood might be its own kind of prison. He’s possessive, controlling, dangerous.

I rose before dawn on Memorial Day, my heart lighter than it had been in months. Today wasn't just a holiday—it was our wedding anniversary. Fifteen years of marriage deserved celebration, even if Ryan had forgotten the last three. Not this year. I'd left hints for weeks, casually mentioning dinner reservations and reminiscing about our honeymoon. This morning would be perfect—a surprise breakfast with Jake and Ryan before they started their day. The kitchen was silent as I worked. I arranged Ryan's favorite pastries on our best china, brewed his preferred dark roast, and set out fresh-squeezed orange juice in crystal glasses. Three red roses—one for each of us—stood in a slender vase at the center of the table. I placed our wedding photo beside it, along with snapshots from happier times: Jake's fifth birthday, our trip to Napa Valley, the day we bought this house.

The Blood Eclipse Pack Gala glittered with wealth and power. Crystal chandeliers cast prismatic light across the grand ballroom, illuminating the faces of elite werewolves from neighboring territories. I stood near the sweeping staircase, smoothing down the simple navy gown I'd spent weeks altering to perfection. My heart hammered against my ribs as I watched pack members and visiting dignitaries mingle below. Tonight was supposed to be everything I'd sacrificed for. "Miss Perkins," a server whispered, offering champagne. "You look lovely tonight." I accepted the glass with a polite smile. "Thank you." The server's eyes darted around before leaning closer. "Is it true? Will Alpha Maximilian announce you as his Luna tonight?" Heat rushed to my cheeks.

I faked my death to escape a husband who despised me. I gave his dying mistress my kidney and my life force just to ensure he' d be safe. I thought I was finally free, until he showed up at my animal shelter five years later. Hudson Holland spent a decade making me feel small, culminating in a public humiliation on our tenth anniversary. He didn't know I had uncovered a plot against his life that only my complete disappearance could stop. So I vanished. I left behind a suicide note, a burnt wedding ring in a fiery bus crash, and a healed Adaline by his side. He was supposed to be happy. Instead, he spent years hunting for ghosts, consumed by a regret I no longer cared about. When he finally tracked me down to the coast, I looked him in the eye and told him I' d rather be dead than be his wife again. I told him to leave and never come back. But when a violent gang broke into my sanctuary to hurt my animals, Hudson didn't hesitate. He threw himself in front of a knife to save a scruffy terrier I loved. Now, the man I swore to hate is bleeding out in my arms. And I have to decide if I' m going to let him die.

My husband stole my life. He took my groundbreaking dessert concept, the one we were supposed to build an empire on, and left me with nothing but dust. Then, he served me divorce papers through a stranger and plastered his new relationship with my intern, Celina, all over the internet. They built a culinary empire on my stolen recipes, their sickeningly bright smiles a public declaration of my replacement. I became a cautionary tale, the talented chef who couldn't keep her husband or her ideas safe. My reputation was shattered, and I was forced to disappear. For six years, I rebuilt from the ashes, running my own small bakery, finding peace in my quiet, fiercely independent life. I thought that chapter was closed. But then they stormed into my shop, ready to destroy me all over again. They came to shatter my new life, but they made one critical mistake. They had no idea who my new husband was.

Standing on the edge of a limestone quarry in the pouring rain, I thought we were just having another family argument. Then my mother, Ardell, screamed that I’d let the life insurance lapse, and my brother, Hakeem, stepped out of the shadows with a cold, calculating look in his eyes. I told them I knew the truth—that Hakeem had cut the brake lines on my father’s car—but they didn't flinch. Instead, Hakeem shoved me hard, sending me tumbling into the abyss. I hit a jagged ledge thirty feet down, the sound of my spine snapping like a dry branch echoing through the rain. As I lay paralyzed and broken, my mother watched from above, asking if I was dead yet, before Hakeem whistled for the starving wild dogs that lived in the quarry floor. "Nature will clean up the mess," Hakeem said, walking away while the first set of teeth sank into my throat. The agony was a tidal wave, but the rage was hotter, a nuclear hatred for the family that stole my future and the daughter I’d never see grow up. I died in that dirt, consumed by fire and teeth, wondering how a mother could choose a car payment over her own child's life. But then, I gasped for air, sitting bolt upright in my old trailer bedroom. I looked at the calendar: May 12, 2014. I was seventeen again, but I wasn't the same girl. Inside this malnourished body was the mind of a world-class trauma surgeon and the elite hacker known as 'Phantom.' This time, I wasn't going to the quarry; I was going for their throats.

#Chapter1 Chapter I watched my husband sign the papers that would end our marriage while he was busy texting the woman he actually loved. He didn't even glance at the header. He just scribbled the sharp, jagged signature that had signed death warrants for half of New York, tossed the file onto the passenger seat, and tapped his screen again. "Done," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. That was Dante Moretti. The Underboss. A man who could smell a lie from a mile away but couldn't see that his wife had just handed him an annulment decree disguised beneath a stack of mundane logistics reports. For three years, I scrubbed his blood out of his shirts. I saved his family's alliance when his ex, Sofia, ran off with a civilian. In return, he treated me like furniture. He left me in the rain to save Sofia from a broken nail. He left me alone on my birthday to drink champagne on a yacht with her. He even handed me a glass of whiskey—her favorite drink—forgetting that I despised the taste. I was merely a placeholder. A ghost in my own home. So, I stopped waiting. I burned our wedding portrait in the fireplace, left my platinum ring in the ashes, and boarded a one-way flight to San Francisco. I thought I was finally free. I thought I had escaped the cage. But I underestimated Dante. When he finally opened that file weeks later and realized he had signed away his wife without looking, the Reaper didn't accept defeat. He burned down the world to find me, obsessed with reclaiming the woman he had already thrown away.

"I GAVE HIM MY LOYALTY. HE LEFT ME TO ROT." He promised to save her. Instead, he let her take the fall. River was his loyal PA, his fiancée, his secret keeper. But when the crimes Rowan Kane committed came to light, it was she who took the fall and he left her behind bars to rot. The day she walks free, she's in labor with his child. And just two days later, she receives the final blow: He's marrying her best friend. Betrayed. Alone. Furious. River vows revenge. But fate sends her someone unexpected: Killian Kane, her ex's older brother-once discarded, now powerful and hell-bent on reclaiming what was stolen from him. Including revenge. Including her. He offers River a contract marriage: two years of pretending, plotting, and rising to the top together. But in the shadows of vengeance, something real begins to bloom. Love wasn't part of the plan. But neither was war. Will revenge bring them the justice they crave or awaken a passion neither of them is ready for?

I noticed it on a Tuesday. Dinner was done, dishes stacked in the rack, and Daniel was on the couch scrolling through his phone the way he always did after eating — thumb moving fast, face blank. I was drying my hands on the kitchen towel when I glanced over and saw he'd changed his Instagram profile photo. The old one was a shot from our trip to Napa two summers ago. Wine glasses, golden light, his arm around my shoulder. Normal. Safe. The new one stopped me cold. It was him alone — shirtless, shot from the side, morning light cutting across his chest. Carefully angled.

Caroline Montgomery’s mate was about to become a father, but the one carrying his child wasn’t her. On the day of her Come of Age Ceremony, she overheard Memphis Brown speaking to her brother. “We’ll keep this from Caroline for now. If it weren’t for her recklessness, I wouldn’t have had to pretend to be away on a mission to the southern border.” Her heart shattered. The man she loved, the one who had promised to make her his Luna after returning victorious, had never left the capital. To avoid her affections, he had secluded himself in his pack’s stronghold and gotten his chosen mate pregnant. From the beginning, Caroline had been the only one kept in the dark. She wiped her tears and smiled, refusing to fall apart as she had in the past. Instead, she turned and accepted the mate proposal from the southern territory. Something tainted was no longer worth holding onto.

The moonlight streamed through the tall windows of the Shadowcrest office as I hunched over the massive oak table, surrounded by maps, schedules, and security protocols. My fingers traced the perimeter of our territory, pinpointing vulnerable areas where rogue wolves might infiltrate during the upcoming Pack Summit. "No, this won't work," I murmured, circling a section of the beta's security plan. "The eastern border is left exposed for nearly three hours during the ceremonial hunt." I grabbed a red pen and began reworking the patrol schedules, ensuring continuous coverage. The Summit would bring Alphas from twelve territories, making security paramount. I couldn't allow any mistakes—not when I'd sacrificed everything to help Wyatt rebuild this pack. The door creaked open, and I instinctively slid the maps toward me, hiding my work. Years of being dismissed as merely a wolfless omega had taught me to keep my contributions quiet. "Alpha Wyatt," Beta Marcus acknowledged, his voice carrying the respect due to our pack leader. I pressed myself deeper into the shadows of the adjoining archive room, not wanting to be seen.

Tessa Cristin, nineteen, had grown up on the rough side of town with dreams too big for her small world. Her escape? Rock Girls-the fierce, unstoppable idol group she adored Their music was her lifeline, their confidence something she longed to wear like armor. She attended the same elite college as them, yet had never seen them up close. Just whispers in hallways and the hope that one day, maybe, she would. Then there was Hardin White-campus heartbreaker, tabloid favorite, and member of the hottest boy group, Crimson Kiss. Handsome, arrogant, and untouchable, Hardin treated girls like passing toys. Rumor had it, he was tangled up with Cathryn from Rock Girls-Tessa's idol. Their worlds clashed one rainy afternoon. Tessa, on a quick run to the convenience store, ended up with a splash of mud across her clothes-courtesy of Hardin's expensive sports car. His smirk made her blood boil. Her slap wiped the smirk away. From that moment, they were sworn enemies. But life had other plans. When her mother took a job as a maid in the lavish White Mansion, Tessa had no choice but to move in. Now, she would be living under the same roof as the boy she couldn't stand-and the playboy who, for some reason, couldn't seem to stay out of her way.

"Take off your fucking dress," he ordered, stepping closer and leading me toward the shower room. I backed away, covering my body with my arms. "No. Please, no." He spun me around and pinned me against the wall. He unzipped my dress, pulling it down from my waist while his hands slid over my back. He leaned in close, whispering hot in my ear, "You're fucking mine. Even your ugly body is mine." She was broken-abused and dreaming of a fresh start on her 18th birthday. All she wanted was to run away, but he wasn't about to let her go. She'd been sold to the most dangerous man alive. Paying off her father's debt was the excuse on the surface. But the real truth: He was obsessed. They were obsessed. Three powerful men fighting over one little pet-Mila.

My husband and son were pathologically obsessed with me, constantly testing my love by showering attention on another woman, Kassandra. My jealousy and misery were their proof of my devotion. Then came the car accident. My hand, the one that wrote award-winning film scores, was severely crushed. But Jacob and Anton chose to prioritize Kassandra' s minor head injury, leaving my career in ruins. They watched me, waiting for tears, anger, jealousy. They got nothing. I was a statue, my face a placid mask. My silence unsettled them. They continued their cruel game, celebrating Kassandra' s birthday lavishly, while I sat in a secluded corner, watching them. Jacob even ripped my deceased mother' s gold locket from my neck to give to Kassandra, who then deliberately crushed it under her heel. This wasn't love. It was a cage. My pain was their sport, my sacrifice their trophy. Lying on the cold hospital bed, waiting, I felt the love I had nurtured for years die. It withered and turned to ash, leaving behind something hard and cold. I was done. I would not fix them. I would escape. I would destroy them.

I died in the terrifying plunge of Flight 815. But when I opened my eyes, I was lying in a luxurious bathtub, completely unharmed. The door opened, and my husband Jordi walked in—looking fifteen years older, his eyes glacial. He pinned me to the wall, his thumb pressing against my windpipe, demanding to know who hired me to play his dead wife. I managed to prove I was the real Isadora, biologically still twenty-eight years old. But my nightmare had just begun. My twenty-three-year-old son Hector looked at my unaged face with pure hatred. "Get this cheap replica out of my father's house, or I'll have him declared incompetent!" My twenty-year-old daughter Blossom, now a spoiled stranger treating Jordi like a personal ATM, screamed at me over the phone. Even Jordi's ambitious female colleague showed up at our estate, treating me like a temporary toy she could easily replace. In the space of a single breath, I had lost fifteen years. My children had grown up without me, learning to hate instead of grieve. Now, they looked at their real mother as if I were a monster trying to steal my own inheritance. But I didn't return from the dead just to be pushed out. I put on my old green silk dress, stepped in front of the female executive, and smiled. If they want to treat me like a threat, I'll fight them all to get my family back.
