Synopsis

The day Seraphina Lovelace steps out of prison is also the day her boyfriend dumps her. For him, she has been imprisoned for three years, but he betrays her, getting engaged with another wealthy girl. What's worse? He even sends killers to kidnap Seraphina to prevent her from divulging secrets. To avoid the killers, Seraphina serves as a waitress in an underworld criminal bar. One night, she happens to save a seriously injured young man. His name is Alfred, and the surname he conceals from Seraphina is Vanderwood. Vanderwood, the Alpha King Family. When Seraphina is about to be killed by the bar's boss, Alfred saves her. Finally, she knows his identity. The new Alpha King, also the most powerful were-wolf in the world. Seraphina thinks he will kill her as well since she once tied his wrists, pressed him against the pillow, and almost had a forced kiss with him. But he doesn't. The only thing he asks Seraphina to do is pretend to be his cousin. Excuse me? What the hell is he saying? Seraphina finds it ridiculous, but Alfred is serious. It seems like Seraphina has no better choice but to agree with his requirement. However, she has no idea that when she says "yes" to Alfred, she also selects a path that she is unable to turn back. Become Alpha King's Faked Cousin is created by Cara TaleSmith, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 1: A Broken Dream

*Seraphina*“Time to go, Princess.”The prison guard’s words dripped with bored disdain as he shoved me out of the cell that had been my home for the past three years. But even despite his mockery, my heart beat wildly with excitement.“Good luck out there,” said Tina. Out of reflex, my hands balled up into fists. I looked back to see her smirking at me, a reminder of the cruelty I’d faced over my time with her and the other prisoners. But even those memories couldn’t ruin my happiness. Not today. Instead of responding, I walked out with my head held high, ignoring the smug laughter that tumbled out of the cell.I followed the guard out to the release area, barely able to contain myself as I went through the motions of the final steps towards freedom. I’d been dreaming of this day for such a long time that, even when I felt the cool midday breeze lick my face, even when I could view the world outside unencumbered by the four walls of the prison yard, it still took me a whil

Chapter 2: Into the Shadows

*Seraphina*“If you’re done with your laps, we still have business to discuss.”I barely registered James’ labored breathing as he caught up down the block I’d run. I remained frozen, rooted to the spot for what felt like both an eternity and a split second as I watched them long after they disappeared inside the store. Neither Eric nor his new girlfriend seemed to notice me at all. It took me a few seconds to register that James was even beside me. “Miss Lovelace, this can all be really simple. You’re an ex-convict. You have a criminal record now, and you didn’t obtain the degree you started. Your options are limited, and I strongly advise you to take this offer,” he said, once again pulling out the checkbook. “The only requirement is that you stay far away from Mr. Rutherford and never breathe a word of what happened between you two to anyone.”“How could he do this to me?”I hated the way my voice sounded —small, vulnerable, unsteady. I hated how I felt the same way.

Chapter 3: Archeron

*Seraphina*My relief was short-lived.I had a split second to be grateful that the door was unlocked and all of thirty to realize that I’d gone from one potential danger to another. I looked around, trying to figure out where I was when the pieces started coming together. I was in a sweltering kitchen, one that didn’t look like it could pass any legal health inspection review. The cold white tiles were streaked with soot and dirt, and the smell of hard liquor was strong enough to singe my nose hairs. But that wasn’t the worst part. The image that sent my heart plummeting to my stomach was the group of heavy-set, muscle-bound men draped over various surfaces, hinting that I’d just walked in on their break. They turned to look at me, hard-lined and dangerous faces that offered not even the pretense of safety. I swallowed hard, trying to decide whether I should take my gamble in here or out there. I knew the men following me were probably still lurking outside and waiti

Chapter 4: Stowaway

*Seraphina*Adrenaline spiked through me, lighting every sense on fire. I may not have my wolf, but thatdidn’t mean that I didn’t still possess some level of keen instinct. That had, after all, been one of the few pitiful advantages I’d still had in prison. Attacks weren’t uncommon back then, so even though I was caught off-guard now, I was still far less unprepared than I would’ve been three years ago. Yet it still took a couple of desperate, panicked seconds to remember myself.Even now, despite the dust-bogged and poorly-lit setting of the warehouse, I could feel that theattacker was significantly bigger and taller than me, most likely meaning he was male. My mindimmediately went back to the two men stalking me when I first stumbled into the bar. Onhigh alert, I wondered if the second guy would come up from out of nowhere, perhaps waiting to see if his friend here could handle me on his own.But the last thing I needed right now was distraction. I forced myself

Chapter 5: Breaking Bread

*Seraphina*Streams of broken conversation came through from the patron area. It was hard to hear everything above the background din of the bar, but from the little my ears could pick up, I knew that these men were looking for Alfred and willing to pay an exorbitant amount to find him. Unease and fear eddied in the pit of my gut, a garish concoction that made me feel like I needed to throw up. The feeling took me by surprise because I should’ve been relieved that the men were not here for me. Instead, my instinct was to call the cops. Nothing about these men seemed safe, and even amongst the rough and rowdy crowd that frequented Archeron, these men stood out above the rest as being particularly worthy of wariness. I took a breath, planning out in my head how I’d go back to the bar for my phone and excuse myself to somewhere in the kitchen when the boss swaggered out to greet the men, arms spread as wide as his grin. “Been a long time, fellas. Tell me, can I get you

Chapter 6: Building Bridges

*Seraphina*His shock was evident in his expression, and despite his injury and the arm still tied to one of the bedposts, Alfred was stronger than I expected. He instinctively struggled against me, and it was all I could do to keep his free hand pinned down with both of mine. I straddled him, keeping him pressed to the mattress in such a way that whoever had just walked into the room wouldn’t be able to see much of his face at all. All the movement and grunts of effort only added to the picture I was trying to paint. “Oh, shit.” I recognized the voice as belonging to one of my colleagues, and fortunately for both of us, he was easily the nicest and most sane of the bunch. Tyson mumbled out a quick apology, then shut the door behind him. The sound of his fleeting footsteps against the cobblestone flooring was music to my ears.It worked. A sigh of relief escaped me, and I half-laughed as I leaned back. Alfred’s anger-filled eyes met mine with such a fury that the sound di

Chapter 7: Stone-Cold

Seraphina’s POVFear surged through my veins as I struggled against the man’s grip. He was strong, his fingers digging painfully into my skin. My heart pounded in my chest, and I kicked and thrashed, trying to break free. My muffled cries for help went unheard in the deserted hallway. The man’s other hand fumbled with my clothes, tearing them apart in his frenzy. I felt the fabric give way, exposing my skin to the cold air.Tears streamed down my face as I fought harder. My vision blurred, and for a moment, I felt a crushing wave of hopelessness. The man’s breath was hot and foul against my neck as he tried to kiss me. I squeezed my eyes shut, praying for some miracle, some way out of this nightmare.Suddenly, the pressure on my mouth disappeared, replaced by the sound of a heavy thud. My eyes flew open, and I saw the man who had attacked me crumple to the ground. Standing over him, holding a shattered vase, was Alfred. His eyes were dark with rage, and his chest heaved with

Chapter 8: The Basement

Seraphina’s POVI stared at the bloodstain, my heart pounding so loudly I was sure everyone could hear it. My hands were shaking, and I felt a cold sweat trickle down my back. This couldn’t be happening. The evidence was damning, and no matter how much I tried to think of a way out, my mind was blank."Tsk, Tsk, Seraphina," the boss said as he leaned forward. “I never thought you had it in you. I must say I'm somewhat impressed, but you don't just kill a man and go scot-free, especially not one of my men."As he spoke, my colleagues surrounded me, blocking off all escape routes. I was trapped.I swallowed hard, my throat dry. "I don't know," I whispered. "I swear, I don't know anything about it."His eyes narrowed. "Don't bullshit me, girl!. I can smell a lie from a mile away. There's a body in a store room. And blood. Lots of blood leading to your room. You know exactly what happened."The door to my room burst open, and one of the henchmen walked out, holding a bl

Chapter 9: The Basement II

Seraphina’s POVI couldn’t believe my eyes. Alfred, the man I thought disliked me, had given up resisting to save me. The scene before me was surreal. How could I have let things get so out of hand? The thugs had forced Alfred to kneel, pressing a gun against his temple. Panic surged through me, and I couldn't help but shout, "Let him go! It was me! I killed that man, not him!"My pleas fell on deaf ears. The henchmen exchanged glances; one of them seemed to have a picture of Alfred and was trying to get a closer look to confirm his suspicions. The boss took notice of this and quickly snatched the photo from the henchman, studying it intently. His eyes flickered with recognition. "It does look like him," he said, looking from the photo to Alfred. He leaned in closer towards Alfred. "Who are you really, boy? If you tell me, I might make this whole experience a lot less painful."The boss circled Alfred, his eyes never leaving him. "You know, boy," he said, his voice smooth a

Chapter 10: A heartbeat away from death

Seraphina POVThe room spun, a dizzying kaleidoscope of adrenaline and disbelief. One moment, I was facing down a lecherous boss; the next, a squad of heavily armed warriors stormed in, transforming the dingy basement into a scene of controlled chaos. My heart hammered a frantic rhythm against my ribs, echoing the clatter of weapons and the barked commands echoing through the sterile room. The thugs, previously cocky and menacing, were now whimpering on the floor, disarmed and utterly dominated by these unexpected intruders.A warrior, a broad-shouldered woman with a mane of silver hair that gleamed even in the dim light, approached him, her face grim. "Your Majesty," she bowed her head, the reverence in her voice sending shivers down my spine.The name hung in the air, heavy with implication. My breath hitched. Your Majesty?As I heard those words, the pieces clicked into place, a horrifying memory jolted to the forefront of my mind.The news report.It wasn't somethin
