Introduction

For twenty years, Belle Sloan believed she had the perfect life, a loving husband, a devoted son, and a powerful business empire. But one shocking revelation shatters everything. The son she raised isn't hers. Her husband and stepsister have secretly loved each other for years. And the family she sacrificed everything for was nothing more than a carefully crafted lie.

Chapter 1

When my son turned one year old, I accidentally saw my stepsister sitting on my husband's lap. "Richard, your stupid wife didn't notice that I swapped our son with hers right?" 

"Ehm ... she dotes on our son every day. But where's my son and her? Why don't you bring him with you?" 

"I've been torturing him for a month and it's getting boring. I'm just going to throw him into the bathtub and drown him. You won't feel bad, right?"

My husband said with disgust, "How is it possible? I married Belle just for her family's property. The thing she gave birth to will die and when our son inherits her assets, I'll kick her out."

I wiped away my tears and pretended not to know. I dedicated myself to raising their son . Nineteen years later, my son returned from studying abroad and I transferred all the company's shares and assets to his name. At the press conference, my stepsister took my husband's hand and came to me with the DNA test report. "Belle , the hospital gave us the wrong baby back then. Hudson is actually the biological son of me and Richard . You've been taking care of him for so many years and it's time to give him back to me now." 

My husband also took out a divorce agreement and a bank card. "Sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible, so that our family of three can reunite. Also, there are seven hundred dollars in this card, which is your hard-earned money for taking care of my boy and divorce compensation over the years." I gave a cold smile and replied, "Okay." 

"Wifey, I noticed that you had a bit of a cough yesterday, so I got up early this morning to make you hot lemongrass tea. Drink it while it's hot." My husband, Richard Grey, gently and thoughtfully held a cup of hot lemongrass tea and handed it to me. The look in his eyes when he looked at me was full of love. 

"Dad, you are so good to Mommy and I wish to be like you when the time comes for me to take care of mine ," said my son with a smile while having breakfast. 

Yeah ... Everyone could see how good Richard was to me. He always noticed my negative emotions at the first moment and gave me comfort and surprises. He would take good care of me when I was sick. He would hold me tightly in his arms and say that marrying me was the greatest blessing of his life when he was in love. If I had not overheard what he said that day, I would not have believed that he, who was so thoughtful, could be such a heartless and ungrateful beast. I took the cup of hot tea and drank it in silence. After a while, the doorbell rang. 

"It must be Vera coming." My son jumped up excitedly and ran over to open the door. I saw my stepsister, Vera Deluca Sloan, standing at the door carrying a lot of bags. Seeing her son, her face was full of laughter. "Hudson, the weather has gotten colder recently, so I bought you some thick clothes."

"And ah, didn't you say last time that you liked the pastries I made? This time, I made you some more." Hudson’s eyes curved into crescents and she smiled. "Thank you, Vera. You are the best to me!" Vera put down her things, held her son in her arms and said affectionately, "Of course, you are my sweetheart!" 

"I wish I could give you all the good things in the world!" After that, she took her son to sit at the dining table, looked at me and said directly, "Belle, I heard from Hudson that there is a parents-teacher's meeting at his school today." 

"Will you let me go?"

"You know, I'm not as lucky as you, married a good husband and gave birth to a well-behaved son. I got pregnant and gave birth to a son because of a scumbag. That short-lived boy could drown in the bathtub when he took a bath. I don't even have a chance to attend the parents-teacher's meeting ...." She spoke pitifully, her eyes kept moving back and forth between Richard and her son. Over the years, she always used her son’s early death as an excuse to do many things that went beyond the boundaries.

The future Beta and Gamma made her life unbearable. When she finally breaks and seeks freedom at the Moon Goddess temple, she does not find release.

She finds truth.

Aphrodite is not human at all. She is a rare white wolf, descended from an ancient Direwolf bloodline long believed extinct. The ritual meant to sever her ties awakens her wolf instead and with it comes the scent of five mates bound to her by fate.

The Alpha twins who once scorned her now cannot stay away. A human hunter walks beside her and proves that strength is not born of fangs or dominance.

"Come here."
"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.
"No touching."

"White wolf! Kill that monster!"
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.

"You want my forgiveness?" he asked, my voice dropping to a dangerous timbre.

Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.

"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.

My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.

My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...

Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.

Now, the three-year contractual marriage is about to end, but I feel that some kind of sentiment has developed between Derek and me that neither of us is willing to admit. I'm not sure if my feelings are right, but I know that we can't resist each other physically...
