Introduction
Drunken and heartbroken, Cassian bumped into Thalia and that one reckless night changed her life forever, binding her to this man who will never chose her.
Forced into marriage and banished from the GoldenMoon Pack, she spends seven years trying to earn the heart of her husband only to discover it has always belonged to another woman; his brother's wife.
No matter the years they’ve shared or the son they’ve raised together. His love remains locked on a forbidden past, and now, he wants out.
But Thalia has a persistent heart and has vowed to win his love over, no matter the consequences.
Chapter 1
Thalia
I drag my nightgown lower, allowing my cleavage to show while staring at my reflection. I force a smile, my husband will be home soon.
He is the brother to the Alpha of the great GoldenMoon Pack and we've been banished for the past seven years.
He blames me for it. He never truly forgave me and frankly speaking, I never forgave myself either.
I've been trying to make it up to him, to be a good wife and hoping that one day he might love me. Yet, he hasn't shared a kiss with me since the Alpha forced us to marry.
All he ever cares for is his never-dying love, Luna Lucinda, his brother’s wife.
Despite having a son together, he barely comes home. He leaves too early and comes back late at night, most times drunk.
One might think that keeping him away from her, would make him glance at me, at least. But I should have known better. His love for her has no barrier, not even distance can quench what he feels for his brother's wife.
What about my love for him?
I have been secretly in love with him, sneaking into banquets just to steal a few conversations with him. And even then, he never knew I existed.
I hear the entrance door open, it should be him. I quickly gather my hair up, tightening it into a ponytail style. I spray perfume all over my body, force a smile again and rush out.
“Cassian,” I call out, widening my eyes in shock.
He is staring at Lucinda’s portrait again.
I've tried my best to convince him to remove Lucinda’s picture from our sitting room, but every time I bring it up, the coldness in his eyes frightens me into silence.
He sways slightly, his fingers tracing her face in the portrait. “My Lucinda.” He calls out, his breath reeking of alcohol.
“My Lucinda,” his words echo in my head as I stare at him.
After all these years, he never stopped loving her. Whilst I remain here, unnoticed by him.
He stutters, then wobbles, almost about to fall. I rush to him, holding him up to steady him. He pushes me off instantly.
I take a deep breath. “We’ve not consummated our marriage and it's been seven years.” I say calmly.
He looks up at me.
“You.. you promised you would tonight.” I say, gesturing out myself in a way that would make him notice me more despite his drunken state.
“That's right,” he nods. “But you know.. you know..” he mumbles. “It's easier to get an annulment that way and I've sent words to the Lycan King requesting for one.” he smiles and my heart drops.
“The Lycan king?” I repeat, furrowing my brows.
Of course, the only person powerful enough to annul a marriage forced by an alpha is the Lycan King. All Alphas bow to him.
“My brother,” he drawls. “My brother forced me to marry you… banished me still..just so he could have her without any obstacle from me.” He clenches his fists by his side, releasing it immediately.
I feel a tear dropping off my eyes. It is still all about her, never willing to give us a chance.
I met him seven years ago and I fell in love with him instantly. I was seventeen, in search of my mate and I believed it to be him. There was no other explanation as to why I felt so connected to him. Gosh! I still do.
But for him, that night meant nothing. He was lonely, heartbroken, and drunk when we bumped into each other and made love.
It was supposed to be the usual one night stand for him, until I returned pregnant and his brother forced him to take responsibility.
Seven years of living together and he still can't bring himself to love me. Now, he wants to divorce me.
“And what will become of our son?” the words tremble out of me.
He scoffs and moves aside.
“Cassian… what will become of our son?” I ask again.
“Don't you dare!!” He glares, shoving out a glass from a table.
“He is asleep, you know… and this might wake him.” I say, pointing at the shattering glass.
He turns to me. “Thalia… aren't you tired?” He asks, staring at me like I disgust him. “Using a drunken mistake I made eight years ago to hold me down still..”
Drunken state for him but that was the best moment of my life. He didn't seem drunk when he promised to take it slowly and not hurt me. When he took my virginity and fucked me none stop that night.
I guess it was all about forgetting his brother's wife after all. Eversince, I pray to the moon goddess that he will one day care for me and perhaps see the chance of a good life we've been given. Well, I've been waiting.
“You’ve ruined my life enough…” he says and begins to stagger to the bedroom.
“Your brother would never let her go!!” I yell. “He is never going to let you back in the pack!” I say, following him.
He bangs the door at me. I push it open immediately.
“You think annulling our marriage will give you a chance to be with your brother's wife… but you're wrong!”
“Shut up!!!” He growls and hurriedly grabs my neck, glaring into my eyes.
“We can still be happy, Cassian..” I say, slowly holding onto his wrists. “We can still start anew.”
He lets go and inhales. “I will never love you!”
I feel my heart crack but I steady myself, refusing to give up on us.
I draw down a hand of my nightgown, stepping forward with some sort of weird bravery.
He takes a step back, avoiding any form of bodily contact. It all makes sense now, why he never agrees to sleep on the same bed with me. He knows consummating our marriage will reduce the chance of annulment and he clearly wants to be single for her.
“What are you doing?” He asks, narrowing his eyes.
“I refuse to believe that after seven years of living together… that you feel nothing, absolutely nothing… for me.” I say, slipping down the other sleeveless hand.
“Aren’t you a shameless whore..” He scoffs.
“I'm your wife..Cassian..Your wife.” I say, dragging down my nightgown and letting it fall to the floor, making me stand bare before my husband.
He freezes, his eyes wide in shock.
This has never happened before. We've never even taken a bath together. I've always respected his wish, believing that one day, he will come willingly and embrace the life we've been given.
I walk out of the gown. “I don't believe you that you don't feel this spark between us,” I swallow. “I want us to live the normal life of a husband and wife… to finally start anew.”
“You mean you want me to fuck you.” He blurts out.
I nod. “Just like you did when we first met.”
He walks to me and lifts up my chin, staring into my eyes. “One condition..”
“Which is?” I ask, suddenly shaking.
“You let me call you… Lucinda.”
My breath catches in my throat.

Accidentally Crossing the Tycoon
Four years ago, the Bailey family faced a devastating financial crisis.
Just when bankruptcy seemed inevitable, a mysterious benefactor emerged, offering salvation with one condition: a contract marriage.
Rumors swirled about this enigmatic man—whispers claimed he was hideously ugly and too ashamed to show his face, possibly harboring dark, twisted obsessions.
Without hesitation, the Baileys sacrificed me to protect their precious biological daughter, forcing me to take her place as a pawn in this cold, calculated arrangement.
Luckily, in those four years, the mysterious husband never asked to meet in person.
Now, in the final year of our arrangement, the husband I've never met is demanding we meet face to face.
But disaster struck the night before my return—drunk and disoriented, I stumbled into the wrong hotel room and ended up sleeping with the legendary financial mogul, Caspar Thornton.
What the hell am I supposed to do now?
After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

Pregnant by My Husband's Rival Alpha
Those words should have destroyed me, but the truth was worse: I'd been used as a broodmare by the man who swore to love me, set up in a hotel room with a stranger because My husband Alexander Cross couldn't father children himself, and now I carried the secret babies of Damon Lester—the most powerful and dangerous Alpha in San Loris—while my own family replaced me with the daughter they'd always wanted. But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.
Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?
