Chapters

Chapter 1

On our fifth anniversary as mates, I decided to surprise Alpha Cristian with a special dinner. I returned to the Silver Moon Pack’s estate early, eager to celebrate, only to walk in on him tangled up with Kyra, a Delta warrior, in our bedroom.

Her voice carried over, dripping with anticipation. "When will you make her uterus mine?"

His response was icy. "Tomorrow, I’ll have her go for a medical check-up. I’ll arrange for the Healer to tell her she needs surgery for cancer, and we’ll take it then. But if anything happens to her, you won’t get away with it!"

I couldn’t grasp how the man who once claimed to cherish me could plot against me like this. Yet he wasn’t aware that I was already carrying his pups.

"Don’t fret. I know you care about her. But don’t you want to have a pup with me?" Kyra lay with her head on Cristian’s lap, trying to soothe him.

"Cut it out! I just want you to have a child for her sake. Stay in your lane!" Cristian snapped, gripping her with renewed intensity. The room was thick with an unbearable tension.

Kyra noticed me standing motionless at the door, and a smug grin crept onto her face. I felt my blood turn cold. I glanced at the mating mark on my neck, recalling Cristian’s vows during our marking ceremony: "I, Cristian Hall, Alpha of the Silver Moon Pack, claim Skylar Bailey as my mate and Luna, bound by the Moon Goddess’s will. May the bond never break."

Watching him in a tangled embrace with Kyra, the irony burned. This was the man who’d made solemn promises to me. Five years of being his Luna had been overshadowed by a fleeting affair with a Delta warrior.

Suddenly, Cristian checked the time. "Sky’s leaving work soon; you should go before she catches on!" Kyra smirked, "Next time, Alpha, I want to try it beside her when she’s asleep."

He swallowed hard, then remembered me and suppressed his desires, muttering under his breath, "Troublemaker!" I knew then he had agreed.

After they left, tears streamed down my face. Fighting through the pain, I called Elizabeth Myers, the pack’s Healer and my mentor.

"Hello, Healer Myers. I’d like to apply for the Arctic research program," I said.

"Are you sure, Skylar? This project is confidential. You won’t be able to contact the pack. Do you think Alpha Cristian, who treasures you, will allow this?"

Joining the research would ensure Cristian couldn’t find me. I paused before responding firmly, "I’ve decided. Alpha Cristian’s opinions don’t matter."

Hanging up, I took the pregnancy test result from my bag, crumpled it, and tossed it in the trash. Cristian had wanted pups desperately, but after five years as his mate, I was only now pregnant. I had planned to surprise him today, but it was pointless now.

I scheduled a termination procedure on my phone and began packing my bags. Shortly after, I heard the door open.

Cristian entered, eyes red and voice frantic. "Are you really joining the Arctic research team? Why are you leaving me? What did I do to upset you?"

He reached out to hold me, but I subtly moved away, replying calmly, "Don’t overthink it, Alpha. I just want to focus on my academic research."

The worry in his eyes seemed genuine. It puzzled me further—how could he appear to love me yet plot against me with a Delta warrior? Tears slipped down my cheeks.

Cristian panicked, pulling me into an embrace. "Don’t cry, my Luna. It breaks my heart. Please, don’t go. You can always count on me to be with you. Without you, I’d lose my mind."

I thought bitterly that without my uterus, he’d lose it. I spoke in a detached tone, "I just need a break."

Cristian finally let out a sigh of relief. "Then there’s no need for the Arctic. I’ve been so occupied with pack duties that I’ve neglected you. It’s unforgivable. Once your health check clears, how about a trip abroad? Today is our anniversary. Whatever you wish for, I’ll make it happen."

His words didn’t bring the usual joy. Instead, they left a sour taste, proving that guilt made him overcompensate. Through the pain and disappointment, I finally uttered the words, "Alpha Cristian, I want to reject our mate bond."

His hand shook, eyes wide with disbelief. "Skylar, you can’t be serious. You know how much I love you. Saying such a thing is like asking me to die."

Love? My heart ached with irony. "I think it’s time we part ways."

"Why? What did I do wrong? Please, just tell me. Don’t mess with me."

The phone rang, interrupting his plea. The caller ID read: "Kyra."

Cristian tried to hide his panic, glancing at me cautiously before speaking. "It’s pack-related. I’ll just take this call."

He stepped onto the balcony, but the look on his face was filled with the same desire he had when with Kyra. How could it be pack-related? In the past, I might have confronted him, but now, as I prepared to leave, there was no need to expose his lies.

After a while, Cristian returned, wearing a somber expression. "Skylar, there’s an urgent issue with the pack that needs my attention. Let’s postpone our anniversary celebration to tomorrow, okay?"

"I'm done with you, Aurora Fernandez-if that's even your name." Mia's voice trembled with rage as she turned for the door. "You'll regret refusing me," Aurora snapped behind her. Mia's hand touched the knob-just as it turned on its own. The door creaked open. Her heart dropped. Standing in the doorway was a face she never wanted to see again. Lucius Lovato. The cold, merciless CEO of the department store where she'd once worked. His eyes swept over her with visible disdain. "Who is this little thing, Eva?" he asked, his voice hoarse and biting. And just like that, Mia knew-she was trapped again. Wrongfully accused. Publicly humiliated. Betrayed by the only man she ever loved. Mia Simpson thought she'd hit rock bottom. Then came the offer-escape prison and start over, under one terrifying condition: seduce and marry Lucius Lovato, the mafia heir with a heart of ice and a soul no one dares touch. But Mia isn't the fragile girl the world thinks she is. She agrees to the deal-on her own terms. Behind her innocent eyes burns a thirst for revenge, and the deeper she steps into the dark world of power, blood, and secrets, the more dangerous she becomes. Lucius, however, is not a man easily fooled. Every attempt to break him only draws him closer. And every secret Mia hides? He already suspects. As enemies close in and her hidden past begins to unravel, Mia discovers a horrifying truth-she is not just a girl caught in the middle of a mafia war. She is the legacy of something much greater... and much more feared. He was her mission. She was his undoing. But in the underworld, love might just be the most dangerous weapon of all.

Breaking The Cage: The Mafia Wife's Revenge

8.5

I was smoothing the red silk of my dress over a baby bump only I knew existed, preparing to tell my husband, the ruthless King of Chicago, that he was finally going to be a father. But before I could share the news, the ballroom fell silent. A woman walked in wearing a gold dress that was barely legal. It was Serena, the woman from the photos I had received just hours ago. She walked right up to us and handed Michael a silver tie clip. "You left this in the suite, Michael," she purred in front of the entire city's elite. When I demanded she leave, she smirked and threw her glass of red wine all over me. The liquid soaked into my dress, looking like a gunshot wound right over my womb. I waited for Michael to defend me. To throw her out. Instead, he looked at the crowd, terrified of a scandal. "Don't make a scene, Liv," he hissed, his eyes cold. "Go upstairs and change. I'll handle this." He turned his back on me and walked away with his mistress, leaving me dripping in crimson and humiliation. My mother found me sobbing in the bedroom and slapped me sober. "Tears are for the weak," she said. "Tonight, Michael Thorne loses everything." We froze his assets. We destroyed his reputation. But that wasn't enough. I wanted to break his soul. I looked down at my stomach. I would protect this child, but his father would never know he existed. "Tell him I lost the baby," I whispered to the butler, my voice trembling with rage. "Tell him the stress caused a miscarriage. Tell him he killed his heir." Tonight, the golden cage opens. And Michael Thorne is about to find out that even a canary has claws.

My Surgeon Husband's Ultimate Betrayal

8.6

My husband, a brilliant cardiac surgeon, was supposed to perform my mother's high-risk heart surgery. But just as she was being prepped, he texted me about a "major OR emergency"-a multi-car pileup he couldn't avoid. Minutes later, I saw an Instagram story. It was a picture of his hand holding another woman's, posted by a socialite whose mother was his "pet project." The caption read: "My hero, dropping everything for my mother's health scare." He wasn't saving lives in a catastrophic accident. He was holding hands for a photo op while my mother's life was on the line with a replacement surgeon. He chose them over us. He abandoned my mother's surgery for a "health scare," moved his mistress and her mother into the nursery I had prepared for our future child, and then, in front of a crowd at the hospital, publicly denied ever knowing my mother to protect his new "family." I watched him destroy our lives for their applause, for a lie. He called me dramatic, childish, and cruel for not understanding his "compassion." But what he didn't know was that I had already hired the most ruthless divorce attorney in the city. This wasn't a cry for attention; it was a declaration of war.
