Samantha's life took a drastic turn when her sister, Olivia, stole from Nicolas Lewis, the most powerful man in the city and the feared king of Wrath, a cold mafia lord. Olivia, the third child in their family, put both herself and Samantha in peril. Fearing for her sister's life, Samantha took the blame for Olivia's crime. However, Nicolas had no intention of sparing anyone who crossed him, believing that Samantha was responsible for the theft.

Samantha's parents had already blamed her for the death of their son, harboring resentment towards her, despite the fact that they had been neglectful, leaving her to work tirelessly to pay the monthly bills and fund her sisters' education in hopes of securing a brighter future for them.

Nicolas's younger brother, Sam, who struggled with mental instability, intervened and saved Samantha from Nicolas's wrath. Yet, the cost of this intervention was steep for Samantha. Now, she faces an impossible choice: marry a man who is mentally unstable or risk losing her life.

It’s a deadly wheel of fate!

Let’s get one thing straight. I didn’t fall into this deal, I walked into it with my eyes wide open.

My boyfriend, Luke, is the absolute love of my life. He’s also the reason we owe a small fortune to a man who collects debts with a baseball bat who now sends his thugs to intimidate and threaten us.

So when the hauntingly handsome Valois Cavendish started appearing in my diner like a storm waiting to happen, I didn’t just notice, I calculated.

He watched me with a gaze that felt like a touch. I watched him back and saw a solution.

His offer was obscenely simple: one night with him, one million dollars, and our debt disappears. I told myself it was for Luke. A strategic sacrifice for the man I loved. A transaction and nothing more.

But let’s be real, Valois was never just a rich guy with too much time and cash. He was a door into a world I didn’t know existed, and the pull I felt toward him wasn’t just attraction. It was a revelation. I said yes to save Luke and I walked into that penthouse for the money.

I stayed for the way his presence rewired my very soul and made Luke’s touches feel like child’s play.

Now I’m caught between the man I’d die for and the one who makes me feel truly alive in a hidden world of ancient power where every choice has a price. I played the game to erase a debt. But the real cost? That might just be my heart.

"I'm sorry, Ava, but you can no longer be my mate because you are not up to my level. You are now just a mere human," Caleb said, which made Ava extremely angry.

"After all the sacrifices I have made? My brother gave his life for you! I became a mere human because of you! It's the sacrifice I made! I had to lose my hybrid powers in order to break your curse, and after all that, you reject me?" Ava said, tears streaming down her face.

"Well, that's how you see it!" Alpha Caleb responded before walking away.

If you were in Ava's shoes, what would you do? Not sure? Let's dive in and see what Ava did!
