That night, heartbroken and humiliated,she let her best friend drag her to a masquerade ball.
She gave herself to a masked Alpha, mysterious and devastatingly handsome.
They didn't exchange names. Just one wild night of hard kisses and rough touches. He pinned her against the wall, his powerful body grinding into hers while she moaned beneath his hungry mouth.
What she thought would be a sweet one-night affair turned into an unexpected pregnancy.
Three years later, Caroline has rebuilt her life in a new pack, hiding her past and raising her son.
But her new boss, Alpha Draven, is ruthless, controlling, and dangerously attractive...
Especially those violet eyes, the same ones she sees in her son every day.
Alpha Draven torments her at work, yet she challenges him at every turn.
He doesn't know she's the woman he's been searching for since that fated night.
While he's still hunting for his true mate,
He has no idea she's already in his office... and has been raising his heir.

Chapter 1

Caroline’s POV

I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my dress one last time.The champagne-colored gown hugged my curves perfectly, and my hair was styled into an elegant updo that showed off the gentle line of my neck.

Tonight, Marcus said he had something important to announce at the pack gathering.

Four years.We’d been together since high school.Even though I was a scentless wolf, Marcus never seemed to care. He always told me my kindness and heart mattered more than any scent ever could.

"You look stunning, Carrie," Eleanor,my best friend and our Alpha’s daughter,said from behind me.

"Marcus is already waiting in the Pack Hall. Everyone’s there."She walked over to fix the hem of my dress."As your bestie,I have to be your maid of honor."

"It has to be you!" I said with a smile.

I took a deep breath, steadying the nerves and hope fluttering inside me.

After tonight, I’d officially be Marcus’s mate.We would complete the bonding ritual and make our eternal vow.

The Pack Hall was glowing with light. Every member of the pack was gathered there, my parents, cousins, and elders.

I smiled as I walked through the crowd, searching for Marcus.

Suddenly, the sea of people parted.

And there Marcus was, kneeling in the center of the hall.

My heart skipped a beat... but froze the next second.

Because standing in front of him…was my cousin, Selina.

"My dearest Selina," Marcus said softly, eyes full of emotion, "will you be my mate? Will you accept this ring as a symbol of loyalty between wolves, and be bound to me forever?"

Time seemed to stop as I watched the sparkling diamond ring I'd dreamed of wearing slide onto Selina's finger instead.

Applause and cheers erupted all around us,but it felt like someone had dumped a bucket of ice water over my head.

"Marcus…" I choked out."Marcus, we’re mates.We’ve been together for four years."

The hall fell into stunned silence.

Marcus stood, and Selina proudly clung to his arm.

"Mates?" Selina laughed with mockery."Carrie, you never completed the mating ritual. And by pack law, an unmarked bond can still be rejected."

Then Marcus finally looked at me,his eyes colder than I’d ever seen.

"I’m sorry,Caroline,"he said."But Selina’s a better fit.She doesn’t have your… issues.We’re getting married next week."

And then, in front of the entire pack, he spoke the words that shattered me,"I, Marcus Larson, reject you, Caroline Bennett, as my mate."

The moment the words left his lips, pain exploded in my chest like a blade being driven straight through my heart.

I gasped, stumbling back as a burning ache tore through me.Rory howled inside me,a sound of heartbreak, of unbearable loss.

It wasn’t just emotional.It was physical.Every nerve in my body screamed as the mate bond shattered.

My knees buckled. I barely kept myself upright.

Whispers filled the hall.

"She’s scentless. No wonder…"

"Poor girl… she never stood a chance."

I couldn’t breathe. My vision blurred.

But I wouldn’t fall. Not in front of them. Not in front of him.

I turned and ran, heart pounding, throat tight, Rory thrashing inside me in agony.

My mother’s voice called after me, but I couldn’t stop.

I needed to get away before the pain drowned me completely.

After Marcus rejected me at the proposal, I felt like I’d lost my soul.Every day after work, I’d cry myself to sleep. Even in class, tears would come without warning.Four years of love,so easily thrown away by him.

One afternoon,I came home from work to find a pale pink envelope on the kitchen table,Selina and Marcus’s wedding invitation.

My heart twisted."They actually sent this?" I asked.

"It’s only proper. Your father and I think you should attend," my mother said gently.

"I will never go to that bitch’s wedding!" I shouted.

"Caroline Bennett, watch your language!" my father growled.

"I said I’m not going," I repeated.

"Enough, Caroline. Stop being so childish," my mother snapped."Poor Selina. It was Marcus who pursued her. Everyone in the pack already knows he cheated. People are already calling Selina a homewrecker who stole her cousin’s mate."

"Oh, Mom,because that’s exactly what she is! Don’t act like she’s the victim."

I lost my patience."Everyone in the pack knows Selina’s nothing but a slut."

"Don’t be that rude," my father interrupted."After you stormed out that day, Eleanor slapped both Marcus and Selina in front of the whole pack. It turned into a public scene."

"Selina is pack family," Mother continued. "She’s my sister’s daughter. Your cousin. You will attend her wedding."

"She’s nothing to me!" I snapped. "I’m not going!"

Rory whimpered in my mind.‘They can’t seriously force us to go… can they?’

Father’s Beta presence pressed down."That’s an order. We’re your parents and you will obey."

"I’m sorry, Dad, but I won’t," I clenched teeth."I’ve always followed your rules. I’ve trained, worked hard, made you proud. But this? I can’t do it. They humiliated me. And now you want me to smile and clap while they get celebrated? You’re making me a joke in front of the entire pack!"

"Enough!" my father roared. Rory and I both flinched."You will attend that wedding. That’s final."

"But Dad—"

"Not another word! Pack unity comes first. You’re going. Period."

I cried myself to sleep. The next day,I sent a mind-link to Eleanor, and she said, "Next Friday is the Alpha’s formal dinner, followed by the Moonlight Masquerade Ball.You can go to that instead of your cousin’s wedding. It’s the biggest event of the year for the Blood Moon Pack. Every major werewolf entrepreneur and heir will be there. Our professor even offered to introduce us. It’s perfect for your career."

I hesitated. "My parents will never agree."

"Leave it to me," Eleanor said confidently. "I’ll handle everything.You just need to come with me."

The thought of standing there, watching the two people who betrayed me stand at the altar and promise forever, while I was expected to smile and bless them?

I would rather die than attend their wedding.

"I’ll come," I told Eleanor.

By Friday, we were at her place, getting ready for the ball.

"Wow, girl! You look absolutely stunning!" Eleanor handed me a silver-white mask, detailed with delicate lace. I slipped it on.

The off-shoulder lavender dress hugged my figure, and the mask matched perfectly.

"Ready?" she asked, grinning.

I hesitated. "Yes,but Elle, you know I don't have a scent. What if someone notices?"

"Don't worry," she said, handing me a tiny glass vial. "It's a special perfume.It mimics a wolf's scent. No one will notice."

I took the bottle, still unsure. "Are you sure this works?"

"Trust me, Caroline. Tonight is your chance. Who knows? Maybe you'll meet your fated mate." She winked.

I sprayed the perfume on my neck and took a deep breath."Alright. Let's go."

"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."

"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.

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé.
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he’s not letting me go.
