I ran from my family's castle four years ago, but the one person I couldn't escape just showed up at the Summer Alpha Gala: Mason, my fated mate who rejected me seven years ago. Now he's an Alpha with a pregnant mate, two kids, and the nerve to grab my arm and growl, "Feel the tingles? You're mine."

At the bar, I watched Ethan get publicly dumped and made a crazy proposal fueled by liquid courage—a three-month fake dating contract.

I thought this was my only chance after twenty years of secret crushing. Until his ex showed me the text: "With Mia? Pretty convenient. She's been following me around since we were kids."

So I was just a tool.
