The maid’s announcement that Theodore was downstairs slithered through my mind. My fingers trembled slightly as I tied my hair into a loose bun, and the elastic snapped back against my skin.
The mirror stared back at me, reflecting my appearance.I inhaled deeply, feeling the air scrape against my throat. My steps toward the staircase were slow, like a soldier bracing for battle.
Before I could gather myself completely, Jaden and Josh zipped past me like lightning bolts. Their laughter filled the house. Josh stumbled but steadied himself and pushed forward, refusing to lose to his brother.
By the time I reached the middle of the staircase, the boys had already flung themselves at their grandpa and their excited voices bubbled over.
Theodore’s smile was wide and bright, but it didn’t reach his eyes. I saw the heavy sorrow and weariness lurking in

"I'm not going to pretend anymore, Diana. I stopped loving you the moment I laid eyes on my mate. I want a divorce."Marcus’s words cut through me like a knife. I had just stepped out of the kitchen, exhausted from hours of preparing a special dinner to celebrate our anniversary. At first, I thought he was joking, as he often did. I let out a laugh and wiped the sweat from my forehead, trying to shake off the strange feeling creeping into my gut.“Nice try, but that’s impossible. Everyone knows you can’t function without me,” I teased, expecting his usual grin.But Marcus didn’t smile. He stood there, stone-faced, and I felt a chill run through me.“You can’t be serious, Marc. It’s our fifth wedding anniversary. I’ve been cooking all day, and I even bought new lingerie for later tonight. Please tell me this is a joke.”My voice cracked as I spoke, and my heart pounded in my chest. The truth hit me minutes later when Marcus explained everything to me. Not only did he have a mate, but h

If there was one word that could describe the Lycan King’s estate, it was "perfect."Marcus had done well for himself, owning factories that manufactured building materials. But standing here, taking in the beauty of the place made Marcus’s success seem like a joke.The guards drove me into the capital district, and the air felt thick with power and money. Every corner held evidence of extreme wealth—luxurious villas and large, endless estates. I questioned my sanity for being here, wondering what kind of mess I had stumbled into, yet I couldn't ignore the beauty of the pack grounds.The van pulled to a stop in front of the estate’s centerpiece: an alpha’s mansion—no, a castle, gleaming under the sunlight with its white marble walls. It looked like a beautiful painting come to life. My legs felt like they weren’t mine as I stepped down, guided by the guards.We approached the grand entrance, and the doorman’s face brightened the moment he spotted me. "Your majesty!

The food sat untouched on my plate as I kept my hands folded in my lap. The king and his sons devoured their food with all the enthusiasm in the world, while I could barely look at mine. Every hunger pang I’d felt over the past four days vanished and left me numb.What the hell had I gotten myself into? Sitting here, pretending to be a woman I had never even met, while the stranger across from me—who happened to be my mate—believed I was his wife. The gods had one twisted sense of humor.And it didn’t help that his mere presence made my blood burn with a heat I couldn’t ignore. His gaze lingered on me with such intensity that made me squirm.Each look felt like an invisible hand, grazing along my skin and digging deep into places that hadn’t felt desire in ages. I’d barely survived my divorce, and here I was, feeling an attraction so intense that it hurt.How did I, a newly divorced and publicly humiliated woman, end up tangled in feelings for another man this fast?The longer I s

I wandered through the endless maze of rooms and I felt like I’d fallen into someone else’s dream.A dream I had no right being in. Every perfectly arranged room only added to my confusion. Too many rooms. Too many questions. And no real answers.I needed to see a picture of the king’s wife and put a face to the name that everyone believed was mine. Maybe then I could satisfy my curiosity and escape this twisted situation before things got worse.The longer I explored, the more fear crept over me. Each step felt like trespassing. Whoever this Lila was, was real, and I was the intruder. The family’s rooms were on the second floor, so I climbed the grand staircase, trying to move as quietly as possible, like a thief sneaking through the shadows.The boys were in their rooms, tucked beneath blankets adorned with cartoon superheroes and wild animals. They looked peaceful, safe in a world where they didn’t know their “mommy” was a stranger.From nowhere, a raw and bitter jealousy hit me.

Asher’s POVThere was something off about my wife that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. She had been acting strangely ever since she returned from the rogue invasion. I expected to be filled with hatred because she had been cheating on me, and she practically threw herself into her abductors' hands. If not for the boys, who needed their mother, I wouldn't have batted an eyelid after she was declared missing.It was a toxic cycle in my family; my mother cheated on my dad and brought disgrace upon us. Yet he forgave her because he didn't want me to grow up in a broken home. I swore never to tread that path, yet here I was, not only accepting my wife back but also realizing the mate bond.Before I found out Lila was cheating, she had grown distant and irritable. The smallest things seemed to set her off, and no matter what I did, we always argued. I had tried to apologize and swallow my ego for peace's sake most of the time.I was hopeful about the new mate bond between us. Earlier, s

DianaMy eyes nearly leaped out of my skull when I spotted King Asher standing there and staring at me.His look made my stomach churn like I'd just eaten something past its expiration date. My body wavered as if my legs had suddenly decided they no longer believed in stability. Of all the people who caught me at this moment, why him? And why now?Heat flushed over me and climbed from my neck to my face. I cursed my body for betraying me. I wasn’t even doing anything suspicious, but his gaze made me feel as guilty as a kid caught with crumbs all over their face, claiming they hadn’t touched the cookie jar.I dreaded the fallout from confessing that I wasn’t the person he thought I was. I wasn’t sure I could survive another emotional beatdown like the one Marcus had handed me. That rejection had left scars and the idea of repeating history with my mate? No, thanks. He was a ruler who could snap fingers and make my existence vanish. Fear gripped me, reminding me how close I was to the

DianaEddie joined us as we headed inside. His cryptic words from earlier played on repeat in my head. Every step I took felt heavier, like the ground wanted to swallow me whole. I couldn’t shake the fear that Asher might look at me too closely, see through this ridiculous lie, and realize I was nothing more than a desperate fraud.If I didn’t keep my head down, I might trip over my lies, and Asher would think I came here to deceive him on purpose. Worse, he might not even care to hear my side of the story before sentencing me to death. The last thing I wanted was my only mate to become my executioner.This was a stupid risk I had no business taking, and now I was about to pay for it. Asher’s gaze landed on me. His smile lingered, but I didn’t return it. It wasn’t mine to earn.“I love you, Lila,” he said through the mate bond. His voice in my mind made my heart stutter. It was the first time I’d heard him through the link, and it hit me hard.Asher reached out to hold me. The tendern

DianaHours after Theodore left, I remained seated in that living room, lost in thought.My body felt heavy, my shoulders slumped forward, and my head bowed.Theodore hadn’t given me a clear answer—not a yes, not a no—on whether he would help me. Yet, despite the uncertainty, a strange lightness settled over me. At least I had told him the truth.Still, I was doubtful. Theodore looked like a man who could easily be silenced, someone who had been overshadowed for years by his wife’s greed.What if Eddie saw him as a liability now? What if he decided to eliminate Theodore to further his selfish interests?He had taught me something invaluable: never to underestimate those who seem weak. Sometimes good people possess a hidden reserve of strength, waiting for the right moment to strike.A bitter smile tug

Diana“Who else knows about this?" Theodore’s voice grew harder. His brow furrowed and his face held an uncertainty and a glimmer of desperate hope that what I said wasn't true. That I would burst into laughter and say it was all a joke.I bit my lip, and my gaze dropped to the floor as shame weighed heavily on me."Your wife knows," I admitted softly. "Eddie knows too."He said nothing. From beneath the curtain of my hair, I watched him tilt his head slightly. He stood abruptly, his feet shuffling as if his body couldn’t contain the weight of what he was processing. The DNA results remained clutched in his hand, rumpled from his grip."And you expect me to believe this?" he asked with hurt in his tone."You can ask them," I replied softly.For a moment, he stared at nothing.

DianaTheodore was in one of the private living rooms when I arrived. I stood outside and my fingers grazed the wall to steady my racing heart.The faint murmur of his voice inside made my stomach twist in knots, and for a moment, I almost turned back. But I was running out of time. Chickening out wasn’t an option anymore.With a deep breath, I pushed away from the doorway and stepped into the room. He was seated in a chair near the fireplace and didn’t notice me at first. His focus was elsewhere, but the faint sound of my footsteps drew his attention.Glancing up, his face lit up with a welcoming smile."I hope I’m not interrupting," I said quietly."Not at all, darling. Come in," he replied warmly. "I was sent for. I hope all is well?""All is well," I lied, forcing the words out as my feet fe

DianaMy knuckles were raw and bloodied from the assault. I was consumed by intense anger, feeling like it was burning out of control inside me. I couldn’t stop myself as I unleashed my fury on Lisa.A small part of me feared that she might somehow overpower me, but that fear was drowned out by my deadly rage.How could anyone in their right mind do this to children? Innocent children who had done nothing wrong. It was unforgivable.Curled up on the floor, she tried to shield herself from more harm. My breath came in ragged gasps, and I glared at her with nothing but raw hatred.Blood trickled from a cut above her brow, staining her cheek and pooling at the corner of her swollen lips. Her bruised eye fluttered weakly, struggling to open and focus on me.“You’re going to kill me,” she whispered hoarsely,

Diana I leaned into Asher, feeling the steady rise and fall of his chest as he toyed with my hair. His genand the way his fingers traced through the strands, made me feel so loved and cherished. That ws whyrt so much that he got mad at me. The contrast between his anger and his tenderness was jarring, and I struggled to reconcile it.“There’s not reI atey much to say, other than the fact that I grew up in a dysfunctional home. My mom was always cheating, and my dad…well, he just pretended not to notice. Whenever they weren’t around, which was most of the time, they left me with the nanny.

Diana"I'm afraid the boys will have to sleep over tonight," Dr. Thomas explained. "Even though we've removed the poison from their system, we need to keep them under supervision for a while to make sure they are fully recovered.""Oh, of course. Whatever is best for them. Do whatever it takes to make sure they are okay," Asher said while I stood by the door.Asher's eyes met mine and held. I looked away. His anger had subsided, and I knew he was remorseful for yelling at me earlier—I could see it in the way he looked at me.I was even angrier with myself for reacting to his scolding in that manner. If I could feel so bad that he scolded me for something I could take the blame for—after all, I was the one who made dinner—how much worse would it be when the big truth comes to light?I was acting overly spoiled and entitled to an apology I didn’t deserve."Mom!

A heavy foreboding settled over me.Marcus was right—I had been dragging this out for too long, and it was beginning to unravel me. The longer I delayed, the harder it seemed.My thoughts shifted into planning mode and my fingers pinched the skin between my thumb and forefinger in an attempt to focus. What I had against Eddie was damning enough to destroy him—if Asher would believe me. That was the catch. A tingling sensation spread through my chest. It was a combination of anxiety and fear.A darker thought crept in, chilling me to the bone. The shock of my lies would devastate him. If he knew I wasn’t Lila, he might never have touched me. He might even search for Lila’s body, wherever it was, just to give her the proper rites as custom demanded.I knew he wouldn’t take my confession lightly.
