“I-I did n-not,” I gulped. Oh no, did he see me adding bleach to his shampoo? Shit, what if he saw me wiping off my snot on his pillow?
“I told you to stay away from that hunter boy,” he bit out, “Yet, you disobeyed.”
“Bruh, that was the matter?” I asked in disbelief, “you scared me for nothing. Has all that voodoo messed up with your head? Do you even know what Aiden means to me?”
Big mistake. His eyes flashed in an inhuman way and he slammed his clenched fist against the wall, making me jump. I shrieked and was about to dash away but, he placed his other hand on the other side of my head and trapped me.
“Lilith,” he said in a dangerously calm voice, closing his eyes, “perhaps, you don’t realize what you mean to me. It’s high time that I show you.”
W-what? Was he going to show me more of his voodoo magic? Ugh! I was sick of it.
“It’s better than any magic,” he said, reading my mind, and staring into my eyes intensely. Before I could ask him what he meant by that, he leaned down and captured my lips with his.

We only know he's a ruthless beast,
And that beast is the king of all supernatural creatures -he is King Wymond.

He is an abomination -a mistake made by the moon goddess.
There are rumors that he is immortal -are there still any immortals in this age?

He walks the lands every night and kills any soul that crosses path with him or it,
He never lets anyone see him and doesn't attend public meetings.

He owns the city.
The packs.
The law.
And now—he owns her nights.
By day, Elara is nothing more than the Alpha’s secretary: quiet, efficient, invisible. She schedules executions with the same calm she schedules meetings. She keeps his secrets locked behind perfect posture and lowered eyes.
By night, she is his greatest liability.
Her mother is dying—stage three cancer, relentless and cruel. Hope has a price she cannot afford. So Elara does the one thing no one survives.
She asks the Alpha for mercy.
He gives her a bargain instead.
Money. Protection. The best doctors money can buy.
In exchange, she will be part of his rut.
Not his mate.
Not his lover.
His anchor.
Because when the rut comes, he becomes something feral. Because his control fractures, his body burns, and his wolf demands blood or ruin. And because she is the only healer whose magic can withstand him—whose touch can pull him back from the edge.
Every night she steps into his private quarters knowing one wrong breath could cost her everything. Healing him means touching skin no one else survives touching. It means feeling his hunger coil beneath restraint so tight it shakes the walls.
He never begs.
He never touches without permission.
But the way he watches her—like she’s both salvation and sin—makes her knees weak and her magic tremble.
This was supposed to be survival.
A transaction.
A sacrifice.
But ruts don’t care about contracts.
And as desire bleeds into dependence, and healing turns into something dangerously intimate, Elara realizes the truth far too late—
She didn’t sell her body.
She offered him the one thing a ruthless Alpha can never afford to lose.
His control.

"Arrr," she screamed, her ribs cracking, the eerie sound like a car crash to her sensitive ears. "No."
It seemed as if the pain stopped and Isabella managed to get back on her feet, but it didn't even take a second and she was on her knees, gasping.
"Ah." The sound rang through the forest, bouncing off the trees and making the ground shake. Needles prickled on her skin as fur peeked through her pores. Claws with a dangerously painful slowness replaced her nails. The sensation was no different than when she'd trapped her hand between the door and the frame.
Isabella's body had an uncomfortable, boiling temperature as her bones cracked and rearranged themselves.
"What's wrong?" asked Isabella into the dark night. There was no answer, not that she expected one. Maybe this was death, and she closed her eyes to slowly embrace it.

She wore white for her wedding.
He stained it with blood.

Alpha Leandro stormed the altar like a god of war—savage, merciless, and achingly beautiful in the most terrifying way. He tore her mate apart with his bare hands…
Then pinned her down, blood on his fingers, and growled against her lips: "You're mine now."

She ran with nothing but her rage, her scent, and her brother’s corpse. Now, hidden inside an all-male Alpha academy, she binds her chest, lowers her voice, and becomes Kaelen—just another brooding, silent “boy” among killers.

My father sold me to a billionaire for fifty million dollars, but he didn’t know he was handing me straight to the most ruthless Alpha werewolf in existence.

He didn’t hesitate. I stood in the living room as he signed the contract, treating me like merchandise. No suitcase. No farewell. Just a completed transaction. I was shoved into a black luxury car and driven deep into a towering, watchful forest. I expected a cold, old CEO.

Instead, the doors opened to Alpha Kael Draven.

He stood at the top of the marble staircase, broad-shouldered and dangerously handsome. His eyes weren't human. They were liquid silver. The guards lining the hall lowered their heads in absolute terror. He walked toward me slowly, studying me like a predator inspecting his prey.

"You understand why you are here," he said, his voice a low rumble. "You are my bride."

He stepped too close. The air around him felt thick, electric, almost alive. Then he inhaled. Slowly. His entire body went still. A suppressed growl vibrated in his chest.

When his fingers brushed the skin of my neck, a sharp pulse of energy shot through me. Above us, the massive crystal chandelier trembled violently, crystals shattering against the marble floor.

Kael’s silver eyes darkened into something lethal. He grabbed my wrist, pulling me toward the moonlight. A glowing crescent mark was burning into my skin.

"You smell human," he whispered, his voice dropping into a dangerous, possessive growl. "But humans cannot trigger a mate mark."

He trapped me against the pillar, his massive frame caging me in. "What exactly are you?"

If Kael Draven was right, my parents hadn’t just sold me for money. They had delivered me to a supernatural world that had been hunting me all along. And now… the most dangerous Alpha in the city had just claimed me as his.
