"I, Hailey Moreno, reject you, Jude Castellan, as my mate." The words tasted like poison, but not as bitter as finding him in bed with my twin sister. Hailey's world shattered when her mate betrayed her with the one person who should have protected her-her own twin, Lucy. The broken mate bond nearly destroyed her wolf, but from the ashes of that pain, something darker was born: revenge. Her plan is simple and ruthless-seduce Alpha Lucian, Jude's powerful father, and make her ex-mate watch as she takes everything from him. But Hailey doesn't know that the lonely Alpha has been watching her, wanting her, for far longer than she realizes. What starts as revenge becomes something neither of them expected. Now Hailey must decide: Is she strong enough to want something real again? Or will her thirst for vengeance destroy the only chance she has at true happiness? In a world where wolves mate for life, some bonds are meant to be broken-and others are worth fighting for.

Chapter 1 The scent of betrayal

"Jude? Baby, are you home?"

I pushed open the door to our cabin, my arms full of groceries. The smell hit me first. Not just Jude's scent, the one that usually made my wolf purr with contentment. No, this was different. This was wrong.

There was another scent mixed with his. Sweet. Familiar. Sickeningly familiar.

My wolf stirred inside me, uneasy.

"Jude?" I called again, my voice shakier now.

I dropped the grocery bags on the kitchen counter. Apples rolled across the floor. I didn't care. My feet were already moving, carrying me toward our bedroom. Each step felt heavy, like walking through mud. My heart hammered against my ribs.

Please, Moon Goddess, please let me be wrong.

The bedroom door was slightly open. I could hear sounds now. My hand trembled as I reached for the handle.

"Don't," my wolf whispered in my mind. "Don't look. We already know."

But I had to see it. I had to know for sure.

I pushed the door open.

The world stopped.

Jude was in our bed. Our bed. The one we'd shared for two years since the mate bond snapped into place on my eighteenth birthday. But he wasn't alone.

Lucy. My twin sister. Her dark hair spread across my pillow. Her body tangled with his.

"Hailey!" Lucy shrieked, grabbing the sheets.

Jude's head snapped toward me. His green eyes went wide, but I saw no guilt there. No shame. Just... annoyance?

"This isn't what it looks like," he said, climbing out of bed without even bothering to cover himself.

A laugh bubbled up from my throat. It sounded wrong. Broken.

"Really, Jude? Really? Because it looks like you're fucking my sister in our bed!"

The mate bond that had once felt like warm honey in my veins now burned like acid. I could feel it starting to crack, to splinter. My wolf howled inside me, a sound of pure agony.

Lucy wrapped the sheet around herself and stood up. She didn't look sorry. She looked defiant.

"I'm sorry you had to find out this way," she said, her voice steady. Too steady.

"Find out WHAT way?" I screamed. "That my mate is cheating on me with my own twin sister? How long? How long has this been going on?"

Jude ran his hand through his dark hair. "Hailey, calm down-"

"DON'T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!"

My wolf was clawing at my insides, desperate to get out. I could feel my eyes shifting, glowing with her anger. My fingernails lengthened into claws.

"Six months," Lucy said quietly.

The room tilted. Six months? Six whole months?

"Six months," I repeated, my voice hollow. "You've been sleeping with my mate for six months?"

"We didn't mean for it to happen," Jude said, taking a step toward me. "It just... did."

"It just did?" I backed away from him. The mate bond was screaming now, tearing itself apart. The pain was unbearable. "Nothing just happens, Jude! You made a choice! You both made a choice!"

"Hailey, please," Lucy started, but I held up my hand.

"Don't. Don't you dare say another word to me."

I looked at Jude. This man I'd loved since I was eighteen. This man I'd given everything to. The man the Moon Goddess herself had chosen for me.

"I, Hailey Moreno, reject you, Jude Castellan, as my mate."

The words left my mouth like knives. The moment they were spoken, the bond snapped completely. It felt like someone had reached into my chest and ripped out my heart. I collapsed to my knees, gasping. My wolf was howling, screaming, dying inside me.

Jude stumbled backward, clutching his chest. Good. I hoped it hurt him as much as it hurt me.

"Hailey, wait-" he gasped.

"I accept your rejection," he finally choked out.

The bond dissolved completely. The emptiness left behind was worse than the pain. I felt hollow. Broken. Like half of my soul had been ripped away.

I forced myself to stand, even though my legs shook. I wouldn't let them see me fall apart. Not completely.

"I want you out," I said to Jude, my voice cold. "This is my cabin. My parents left it to me. Get your things and get out."

"Hailey-" Lucy started.

"And you," I turned to my sister, "you're dead to me. Do you understand? You don't exist anymore."

Lucy's face crumpled, but I felt nothing. The pain of the broken bond was too overwhelming for anything else to register.

I turned and walked out of the bedroom, out of the cabin, into the night. I shifted mid-stride, my clothes tearing away. My white wolf burst forth, and I ran.

I ran until my paws bled.

I ran until I couldn't breathe.

I ran until the pain became something I could almost bear.

When I finally stopped, I was at the edge of our pack territory. The Blood Moon Pack. The pack I'd been born into. The pack where everyone would soon know what had happened. Small towns-even werewolf ones-didn't keep secrets.

I shifted back to human form, naked and shivering in the cold night air. Tears streamed down my face, hot against my cold skin.

"Why?" I whispered to the moon. "Why would you give me a mate who would do this?"

The moon offered no answers. It never did.

My wolf stirred weakly inside me. She was hurt, damaged by the broken bond. But underneath the pain, I could feel something else growing.

Rage.

Pure, burning rage.

"They will pay," my wolf growled. "They will both pay for what they've done to us."

"Yes," I agreed, wiping my tears away. "They will."

But how? What could I possibly do to make them feel even a fraction of the pain they'd caused me?

An idea began to form in my mind. A terrible, perfect idea.

Alpha Lucian. Jude's father.

The most powerful wolf in our pack. The man who'd been unmated for years, ever since his Luna had abandoned him and disappeared. The man every she-wolf in the pack whispered about, desired, feared.

If I wanted to hurt Jude, really hurt him, I knew exactly how to do it.

I would seduce his father.

A laugh escaped my lips, wild and unhinged. My wolf purred in approval.

"Oh yes," she whispered. "The Alpha. He will be ours. And when we're done, Jude will know what it feels like to lose everything."

I stood up, ignoring my nakedness, ignoring the cold. I lifted my face to the moon, feeling the rage and pain transform into something sharper. Something dangerous.

"I'm coming for you, Jude," I whispered to the night. "And when I'm done, you'll wish you'd never met me."

I lay paralyzed on stiff white sheets, a prisoner in my own skin, listening to the rain lash against the window like nails on a coffin. My father, Elmore Franco, didn't even look at my face as he checked his clipboard. He just listened to the steady, monotonous beep of the heart monitor-the only thing proving I was still alive. Without a hint of remorse, he pulled a pen from his pocket and signed the Do Not Resuscitate order. My stepmother, Ophelia, stepped out from behind him, wearing my favorite pearl necklace and smelling of cloying perfume. She leaned close to my ear to whisper the truth that turned my blood to ice. "It was the tea, darling. Just like your mother. A slow, tasteless poison." She chuckled as she revealed that my fiancé, Bryce, had a two-year-old son with my sister, Daniela. My inheritance had been funding their secret life for years, and now that the money was secure, I was an inconvenience they were finally scrubbing away. As my father yanked the power cord from the wall, the beeping died, and the darkness swallowed me whole. I was being murdered by my own flesh and blood, used as a bank account until I was no longer needed. I died in that sterile room, drowning in the realization that every person I ever loved was a monster who had been waiting for me to take my last breath. Then, I gasped. I woke up in a luxury hotel suite surrounded by silk sheets, five years in the past-the very morning of my wedding. Next to me lay Basile Delgado, the "Wolf of Wall Street" and my family's most dangerous enemy. In my first life, I ran from this room in a panic and lost everything. This time, I looked at the man who would eventually destroy my father's empire and decided to join him. "I'm not leaving, Basile. Marry me. Right now. Today."

The Billionaire's Cold And Bitter Betrayal

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.
