“Sign the paper, Elara, and you’ll have the protection you beg for. But remember—I am buying your obedience, not your heart.” Kaelen’s amber eyes were entirely deadened, sweeping over me like I was nothing but a tactical asset for his boardroom and his pack. Elara Vance only wanted to survive. She takes a brutal contract marriage with the seemingly weak, lowly wolf, Kaelen Cross, the ruthless Alpha of the Obsidian Pack, and hides her true identity. For him, she is just a political pawn to be used for his military dominance. She finds herself trapped in a gilded cage, frozen in his world. By day, Elara lives in a loveless marriage and a cutthroat corporate office, but by night she's a force of nature, and Julian Thorne, the reckless, wolfless military recruit across the street, is her target. He gives her what her husband is most determined to withhold: his devotion. Unfortunately, as the inherently fearsome attraction between Elara and Kaelen starts to ignite against their wishes, a sinister prophecy emerges, linked to her secret bloodline. Elara faces a ruthless Alpha who will kill her and a forbidden rebel willing to die for her; will she remain the faithful fake wife, or will she unleash the devastating power she was born with and destroy the pack forever?

The positive pregnancy test was still warm in my hand the night my Alpha husband brought his "true mate" home to our penthouse. For 6 years I cried for Kaelen. I was the ideal, the submissive, the Luna that he could count on to keep the blood of the violent, the lethal, the Lycan bloodline suppressed in my veins so that he could have the gentle wife he wanted. I sacrificed my claws, my freedom, my nature for a man I believed loved me. The illusion was broken, however, when the slender, blonde Celeste walked into my space with his new bite mark. Kaelen handed the divorce papers across the glass table, his eyes cold and devoid of the devotion he had promised. He tossed me aside because he had found his new fascination, not realizing that he was tossing his unborn heir into the vicious, blood-drenched rogue district. He thought I would cry, beg, quietly fade away in the dark. He made a big mistake. The heartbreak did not break me, it cut my chains. I'm no longer his loyal Luna. I will build a dark kingdom out of the shadows, take my seat in the underworld, and have the Alpha, who broke me, crawl on his bloody knees.

I gave my innocence to my billionaire stepbrother, got pregnant, and was ruthlessly driven out of my own home. Seven years later, the Alpha who shattered me is back—and he's demanding his heir. Sophie Hart existed as the secret child of a money-driven socialite who went through life without anyone noticing her presence. She never expected to find her fated mate in Dominic Steele, the cold, untouchable heir to a vast empire. The wrongful accusations from his fiancée caused her to lose her innocent dreams which made her escape the city to start a new life as a strong, self-sufficient single mother who raised her child. Sophie must return to the glamorous yet perilous environment which she managed to escape when her family experienced an unexpected death. She assumed she could keep her son hidden but Dominic's eyes showed her the truth. Dominic now operates as a fierce Alpha who knows his lost mate was his most valuable asset after previously living as a strict heir. He intends to use all his assets and authority along with their unbreakable bond as mates to take her and their son who possesses his identical silver eyes. Sophie has transformed into a new person who lacks the qualities of her former self who used to be weak and easily defeated. She will destroy his entire empire before he can break her heart for a second time.

My mother married the ruthless Alpha King, but my fairytale ended the exact second his three monstrous, breathtaking sons cornered me in the dark. I was destined to become a proud Luna who would rule over her domain. Instead, I became a secret captive in my own home. My stepbrothers who want to use my family danger as bargaining power to take my rightful title from me. They hate my ancestry yet they have developed a complete obsession with controlling my behavior which forces me to participate in their twisted survival game where I must meet their deepest needs to survive till morning. The eldest brother—my own fated mate—looks me in the eye and publicly rejects me in front of the entire pack just to break my spirit. They think I am completely ruined. They believe that I exist as a delicate, shattered object who has become ensnared in their seductive, perilous net. But they are dead wrong. Every time I face rejection, every time I get ordered to do something humiliating, and every time someone touches me in secret, these experiences awaken the ancient power of my inner wolf. They believed that by breaking a Luna they could take her crown, but I will rise from the ashes and make all three of my tormentors bow at my feet.

My mate brought his first love home on our eighth anniversary. My husband informed me that he was replacing me while our little boy waited with a cake. For eight years, I endured the pack's cruel whispers. They told me that I had caught Alpha Kael with a pregnancy. I endured it all for his sake; I loved him. I raised our son, Leo, and I did my best to be the perfect Luna. However, when my first love came back, Kael cast me aside. Our son's heart broke because of him. When he attempted to take Leo from me, saying I was too frail to raise his heir, I did the unimaginable. I took my boy away and I disappeared. Three years later, Kael finds out that the lady he selected was a lying snake. He seeks me out with bitter regret. But I'm not the little girl he broke; I'm not the little girl who cried and cried. I am now back, full of glory and strength. And I am not alone. I'm standing by a ruthless Lycan King who holds my hand and treats my son like a true prince. Kael's eyes are red with feral jealousy as he watches another man raise his heir. He's willing to destroy the world to redeem us. But it is too late. The Alpha made his choice, and now he'll suffer from regret.
