"I, Valerie Ava Montrell…reject you, Alpha Ronald Ewan, and the Blood Moon Pack as my pack!" "Don't you dare, Omega! You will regret it," Ronald seethed, clutching his chest in pain as the bond snapped. Before he could reach me, Alpha Niklaus stepped forward, lifting me into his arms and striding out. "Keep the girl down, Alpha Niklaus." Niklaus only tightened his hold on me, his gaze sweeping over them. "Valerie is no longer a member of this pack," he declared, before cupping my face with surprising gentleness. "And I am not leaving here without her, because she is my mate." "You are f*ck*ng lying!" Ronald bellowed, a growl vibrating through his chest."Prove to us that she is your mate." My new mate let out a low chuckle. "And how do they prove the mate bond? Will a kiss do?"

Would he treat me with the care I'd longed for, or would he turn out to be just like the one before him? With my heart still fragile from the abuse I had endured, trusting again seemed impossible. Yet something about this stranger pulled me in, making me wonder: could I finally have the love I deserve, or am I about to face an even greater monster in disguise?

""Did I hear that right or am I drunk again?"" Just a few minutes ago, both of us stood here confidently assuming she was some random waiter. And now, reality crashed down on them. They say revenge is a dish best served cold. Mine's been chilling for five years. The night James Reed kicked me out of his life, I was pregnant, penniless, and naive enough to believe love mattered more than money. He taught me better. When you're bleeding out in the rain, clutching your stomach while your best friend laughs from his doorway, you learn exactly what you're worth to people like them. Zero. But the woman who nearly died that night? She stayed dead. The one who came back is someone else entirely. Anna Quinn. Lost daughter of California's most powerful family. CEO of her own pharmaceutical empire. And the silent majority shareholder in James Reed's failing company. He's about to learn what happens when you build an empire on stolen foundations. His marriage has cracks he doesn't see. And the investors keeping him afloat? They answer to me now. He thinks he's untouchable. That my formula made him invincible.

And this time, I'm the one holding all the cards.
