My family was on the poverty line and had no way to support me in college. I had to work part-time every day just to make ends meet and afford to get into the university. That was when I met her-the pretty girl in my class that every boy dreamt of asking out. I was well aware she was out of my league. Nevertheless, I mustered all my courage and bravely told her that I had fallen for her. To my surprise, she agreed to be my girlfriend. With the sweetest smile I had ever seen, she told me that she wanted my first gift for her to be the latest and top-of-the-line iPhone. I worked like a dog and even did my classmates' laundry to save up. My hard work eventually paid off after a month. I finally got to buy what she wanted. But as I was wrapping my gift, I saw her in the dressing room, making out with the captain of the basketball team. She then heartlessly made fun of my inadequacy and made a fool out of me.

Desperation washed over me, but there was nothing I could do but lie on the floor as they trampled on my feelings. But then, my father called me out of the blue, and my life turned upside down. It turned out that I was a billionaire's son.

Finally, she couldn't take the disappointment any longer and chose to end the marriage. Edmund had always thought that his wife was just boring and dull.

Sometime later, at an award ceremony, Chelsea went onstage to accept the award for best screenplay. Her ex-husband, Edmund, was the one presenting the award to her. As he handed her the trophy, he suddenly reached for her hand and pleaded humbly in front of the audience, "Chelsea, I'm sorry I didn't cherish you before. Could you please give me another chance?"

But his ex-wife just walked away. Wasn't it better for her to just concentrate on her career? Men would only distract her-especially her ex-husband.

For three years, I waited to become the perfect Luna for my pack and give the Alpha an heir. Three years of lies, being the intruder in someone else's love. Three years to suffer the death of my baby and seek revenge against the man who disfigured my face and destroyed my womb. Dying captured by my own pack or escaping and surviving—those were my only two paths. I chose to hide and live. The Lycan King, Aldric Thorne, the most bloodthirsty and ruthless ruler who led the werewolves with an iron fist—I became his personal maid, the most dangerous position, where I could lose my head at any moment for the slightest mistake. But no one from my past would ever look for me here. "Always submissive. Don't speak, don't listen, don't see anything, don't bother the Lycan, or you'll die." Simple rules to follow. I thought I was doing well until the day the King made me an offer I couldn't refuse. "You want me to save those people? Then surrender to me tonight. Be mine. I desire you, and I know you feel the same. Just once, Valeria... only once." But it wasn't just once. And passion turned into love. That cold, untamable man conquered my heart as well.

"I'm sorry, but this time, I won't lose my pups again. Not even for you, Aldric." My name is Valeria Von Carstein, and this is my complicated love story with the Lycan King.

~Ava’s POV~ Concealers. Scarfs. Smiles. None of them were enough to mask the shock I still felt as I stared at the screen before me. I saw my husband, Dylan, his hands gripping Crystal’s neck in pleasure unlike the same way they always gripped mine whenever I spoke out of term. He kissed her with passion, leaving red marks on her naked back, different from the bruises he gave me, which came from his anger whenever he punched me for any slight mistake. Quickly forcing all thoughts out and wiping away the tears that were seconds from falling, I focused on the door. The only solution to stop this constant pain was right behind it and all I had to do was turn the knob then the door suddenly swung open just as I reached for it forcing me to collide with a wall. I stumbled backwards, my legs giving out and I crumbled to the floor looking up to see the wall. Then I saw him. The answer. His cold gray eyes stared back at me pinning me to the ground. It didn’t matter how many of his pictures I had seen, I was not prepared to be physically hit with how beautiful he was.

Madam Luna, here’s the divorce agreement from the safe, the pack secretary said, placing the document before Luna Thea Blackwood at the upscale restaurant Moonlight & Wine.

Five years ago, on their mating ceremony day, Alpha Kieran Blackwood had signed this agreement and locked it away a gesture of his devotion. If he ever betrayed their bond, she could dissolve their mating immediately.

Thea’s pen moved swiftly across the paper. Her gaze drifted to the empty seat across from her, their fifth anniversary dinner becoming a solitary affair. Take this to Attorney Hawthorne, she instructed. Then arrange for the Silver Moon Hotel’s grand hall. Have it decorated for a mating ceremony.

The secretary hesitated. Whose names should be on the ceremony documents? Kieran Blackwood and Aurora Wintercrest. The secretary fell silent. Aurora was Kieran’s first love, before he became Alpha.

Chapter 1  An ordinary afternoon at Riverside Kindergarten, I was about to pick up my three year old son Noah. Instead, chaos erupted when a psycho began attacking people with a knife. Taking multiple stab wounds to shield my Noah, and finally collapsed in a pool of my own blood. Through blurring vision, I saw my husband, Hudson Montclair, arrive with police and a trauma team. “Noah… how’s Noah?” I managed to whisper before they wheeled me into surgery. Hudson, his eyes glistening with tears, told me Noah had bled out before reaching the hospital. The grief knocked me unconscious. I’d forgotten to mention my anesthesia immunity, and as awareness slowly returned, I caught the conversation between Hudson and my doctor. “What the hell, Mr. Montclair? The kid could’ve made it – we could’ve saved him! Why stopping us from saving him? That was your son lying there, barely three years old!” “I never meant for him to make it. That kid was a mistake I should’ve fixed a long time ago. And now he dares ask for birthday presents? Clearly longing for my business.” “My son with Valeria turns eighteen next week. I promised her the company as his inheritance. No one can stand in his way.” All this time, what I thought was a blessed marriage was actually hell on earth. Well, if this is what they want, I’ll give them what they desire. The doctor examined my wounded abdomen and sighed. “Despite the severity of her injuries, we can save her uterus. She could still have baby in the future.” “Remove it. All of it. Make sure she can never conceive again.” “Jesus Christ, Hudson!” The doctor’s voice cracked with disbelief. “You’re handing everything to Valeria’s son in three days anyway.”

The third year of their marriage, Elaine Faerwyn gazed at the woman sitting across from her and released a soft. This was the ninety-ninth mistress of Alistair Chase’s that she had handled and unquestionably the most difficult of the lot. No matter how substantial the settlement Elaine offered, this woman remained immovable, stubbornly insisting on staying by Alistair’s side. Elaine took a deliberate sip of her espresso, the bitter liquid matching her mood perfectly as her lips curved into a self-deprecating smile. You really should name your price, she said, setting down the porcelain cup with a soft clink against the saucer. He’s a wanderer who’s never found his star. Surely you can see that in him? I’m his wife, yet my primary function seems to be disposing of lovers he’s grown bored with as you see now.
