"Marry me, or face the consequences," he growled. Megan’s nails dug into her palms, fury simmering beneath her fear. How dare he? How dare this arrogant billionaire claim a child he never wanted? "My family is bloodthirsty, Megan. They’ll take the baby—with or without you." Her heart slammed against her ribs. She had run from one nightmare, only to walk into another. A one-night stand was supposed to be an escape. A mistake. But now, she’s carrying his child, and Alexander Zeus—the most ruthless man in New York—won’t let her go. Now, she has two choices: become his wife… or risk losing everything. Running away from her past which haunted her, Megan runs into the arms of Alexander Zeus, a ruthless billionaire. What happens when a perfect love story blooms and her past catches up with her? Will love win at the end of the day or will this…be different?

His feet hit the cold marble floor, his eyes glassy as he stared into hers, his lips trembling slightly as he whispered, “I love you more than I fear death, Selene. If killing me would bring you peace, then let me die at your feet.” He shut his eyes, tears rolling down his cheeks. Her lips pressed into a thin line, the silence in the atmosphere stretching. Her heart slammed against her ribs. She couldn't believe the one man who had wrecked her in high school, the arrogant playboy who made her life miserable, was now at her mercy. She wiped the tears rolling down her cheeks, her chest tightening. “You wrecked me, Damian,” she whispered, her voice cracking slightly. “You made me a laughingstock… and yet, I still love you,” she confessed, the words tasting bitter on her tongue. Selene Silas thought a scholarship to Crescent Vale High would change her life—but it only made her a target for Damian Adams, the Alpha heir who made her high school hell. On her eighteenth birthday, her wolf finally awakened... along with the mate bond tying her to Damian. Disgusted by the match, he vowed to break it—by breaking her. But fate had other plans. When a dark prophecy reveals Selene could be the pack’s destruction, she runs—only to return years later, stronger, dangerous, and no longer the girl Damian once crushed. Now he’ll have to fight to win back the mate he betrayed… while the pack decides whether she’s their salvation or their doom.
