The day I buried my father, my destined mate, Lucas Graves, was in our bed with another woman.
When Lucas threatened my dying mother's life to force me back, I made a desperate bargain with the most powerful Alpha of them all: Marcus Wayne. Lucas's top enemy and his half-brother.
Our deal was a cold, clinical contract of marriage. No emotions, no false promises, just mutual gain. He needed an heir to secure his legacy; I needed a shield to save my mother and what was left of my dignity.
He is the supreme Alpha, a male who scorns the very idea of a fated mate. I am an outcast raised by humans, rejected by both worlds. Our marriage was a transaction, but the challenges were far greater than I ever imagined.
Branded a gold-digger, shunned as a misfit Luna, cursed for failing to produce an heir, and labeled his greatest weakness—I never thought becoming Marcus's Luna would unleash such a storm of hostility.
I stumbled, I adapted, and I slowly learned to navigate the brutal laws of werewolf society. Just when I found my footing, his mysterious fated mate returned.
Was I destined to be cast aside yet again? After so many betrayals, as a new power awakens within my wolf, I am done begging for a man's mercy. This time, I will fight for my own destiny.
