I was the Barron heiress, and everyone assumed Damien, the Head Warrior, was my fated match. But the sickening scent of rotting peaches led me to the garden, where I found him pinning Eve against a tree. He wasn't just cheating; he was admitting he only wanted me for the Alpha title, while calling that manipulative charity case his "true queen." When I tried to cut off his funding, he declared war. He sabotaged my saddle, leaving a silver shard embedded in my leg, and sneered that I was vulnerable without him. Then came the ultimate humiliation. At my twenty-first birthday party, in front of every high-ranking wolf, Eve and Damien played a deepfake video of me with Rogues. Damien looked at me with mock pity, offering to marry me only to "hide my shame," while his six brothers stood as a human shield protecting Eve. They called me broken. They thought I was defenseless. But they didn't know I had already sent a message to the most dangerous wolf in existence. Just as Damien tried to force his claim, the ballroom doors exploded inward. The Alpha King walked in, eyes glowing gold, and pulled me against his chest. "She is mine," he growled, silencing the room. I looked at Damien and his brothers, holding up a silver USB drive. "You destroyed my reputation to protect her," I whispered. "Now, let's see if you still want her when you find out she's been sleeping with all seven of you." I plugged in the drive.

He wasn't just cheating; he was admitting he only wanted me for the Alpha title, while calling that manipulative charity case his "true queen."

When I tried to cut off his funding, he declared war.

He sabotaged my saddle, leaving a silver shard embedded in my leg, and sneered that I was vulnerable without him.

Then came the ultimate humiliation.

At my twenty-first birthday party, in front of every high-ranking wolf, Eve and Damien played a deepfake video of me with Rogues.

Damien looked at me with mock pity, offering to marry me only to "hide my shame," while his six brothers stood as a human shield protecting Eve.

They called me broken. They thought I was defenseless.

But they didn't know I had already sent a message to the most dangerous wolf in existence.

Just as Damien tried to force his claim, the ballroom doors exploded inward.

The Alpha King walked in, eyes glowing gold, and pulled me against his chest.

"She is mine," he growled, silencing the room.

I looked at Damien and his brothers, holding up a silver USB drive.

"You destroyed my reputation to protect her," I whispered.

"Now, let's see if you still want her when you find out she's been sleeping with all seven of you."

Chapter 1

The Broken Bond

Elena POV:

The scent hit me before the sound did.

It wasn't the crisp pine of the Barron estate, nor the metallic tang of the logistics warehouse. It was something cloying. Nauseating. Like peaches left to rot in the heat, mixed with the heavy musk of aroused wolves.

Midnight, my inner wolf, paced restlessly in the back of my mind. She was usually composed, befitting the Barron heiress, but today she was snarling, claws scratching against my consciousness.

"Turn back," she warned, a low rumble in my head. "It reeks of betrayal."

But I had to know. I pushed through the manicured hedges of the private garden. I was looking for Damien. Damien Paul, the Head Warrior, the man my father intended for me to marry. We had grown up together. Everyone assumed we were Mates-even without the bond completed.

I froze.

There, beneath the shadow of the old oak tree, two figures were intertwined. One was Damien. His broad shoulders were unmistakable as he pinned a smaller figure against the bark.

The other was Eve.

Eve McClain. The charity case my father had taken in years ago. She was supposed to be an Omega, submissive and weak. Yet, she had her legs wrapped around Damien's waist, her head thrown back.

"Damien..." she moaned, her voice dripping with that fake sweetness I'd come to hate. "What about Elena? What if the Princess finds out?"

Damien grunted, burying his face in her neck. "Let her find out. I don't care. I need you, Eve. You're the only one who quiets the noise."

My breath hitched. It felt like a giant paw had crushed my lungs. In our world, the bond is sacred. To betray a partner is to fracture one's own soul.

"But you're going to marry her," Eve whispered, tracing a finger down his chest. I could see a small vial in her hand, uncapped, releasing that dizzying, rotten scent.

"I have to," Damien growled. "She is the key to the Alpha position. I marry her, I become the Alpha male of the Barron Pack. But you... you will always be my true queen. She is just a political necessity."

A political necessity.

The pain I expected-the shattering of a heart-didn't come. Instead, a cold wave of clarity washed over me. I looked at Damien. I waited for the pull, the Spark that defines a true Mate connection.

I felt nothing.

Actually, I felt nausea.

"He is not ours," Midnight growled, settling on her haunches, golden eyes filled with disdain. "We do not bow to traitors. And that smell... it is poison."

I stepped out from the hedges. A twig snapped under my boot.

Damien whipped his head around. His eyes were dilated, swimming in a haze of lust and whatever drug Eve was pumping into the air.

"Elena!" He scrambled back, dropping Eve. She landed on her feet with surprising grace, quickly hiding the vial behind her back.

"Don't," I said, my voice steady. "Don't insult me with an excuse, Damien."

"It's not what it looks like," he stammered, buttoning his shirt. "My wolf... I couldn't control it. Eve, she was in heat, and I..."

"She is not in heat," I said coldly, inhaling. "There is no pheromone spike. Just cheap perfume and your own lack of honor."

Eve stepped forward, eyes wide and teary. "Elena, please! I didn't mean to! He just... he overpowered me!"

"Stop talking," I commanded.

Damien stepped in front of Eve, shielding her. "Don't speak to her like that, Elena. She's fragile."

"Fragile?" I laughed, a harsh sound. "She has been manipulating you and your six brothers for months. Do you think I am blind? I see how the seven of you follow her like puppies."

"We protect her because she is pack!" Damien roared. His voice carried a trace of the Alpha timbre.

It washed over me, but I did not kneel. I was a Barron.

"You protect her because you are compromised," I said. "You just admitted you are using me for the title. You want the Alpha seat? You want to rule the logistics empire?"

I turned my back on them.

"Where are you going?" Damien demanded.

"To see my father," I said over my shoulder. "And to cancel the wedding. You will never sit on the Alpha throne, Damien. You are nothing but a Warrior who lost his way."

As I walked away, I heard Eve sobbing, and Damien whispering soothing words. The bond I thought we had was not just broken; it never existed.

I watched my husband sign the papers that would end our marriage while he was busy texting the woman he actually loved. He didn't even glance at the header. He just scribbled the sharp, jagged signature that had signed death warrants for half of New York, tossed the file onto the passenger seat, and tapped his screen again. "Done," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. That was Dante Moretti. The Underboss. A man who could smell a lie from a mile away but couldn't see that his wife had just handed him an annulment decree disguised beneath a stack of mundane logistics reports. For three years, I scrubbed his blood out of his shirts. I saved his family's alliance when his ex, Sofia, ran off with a civilian. In return, he treated me like furniture. He left me in the rain to save Sofia from a broken nail. He left me alone on my birthday to drink champagne on a yacht with her. He even handed me a glass of whiskey—her favorite drink—forgetting that I despised the taste. I was merely a placeholder. A ghost in my own home. So, I stopped waiting. I burned our wedding portrait in the fireplace, left my platinum ring in the ashes, and boarded a one-way flight to San Francisco. I thought I was finally free. I thought I had escaped the cage. But I underestimated Dante. When he finally opened that file weeks later and realized he had signed away his wife without looking, the Reaper didn't accept defeat. He burned down the world to find me, obsessed with reclaiming the woman he had already thrown away.

4.3

I was the Pack’s shame, a twenty-year-old "Runt" who had never shifted. Yet, I clung to the desperate hope that Alpha Marcus, the man I had loved my entire life, would finally claim me at the Full Moon Gala. Instead, he stood before the entire Pack with Izzy, a woman who looked at him with hunger rather than love. With eyes as cold as stone, he didn't just ignore me; he destroyed me. "I, Marcus Thorne, reject you, Olivia Hayes." The rejection snapped our bond, but the nightmare was just beginning. When Izzy framed me for poisoning her, Marcus didn't hesitate. He chained me in the dungeon and wielded the silver whip himself. Each lash burned like liquid fire, tearing through my skin as he demanded a confession I couldn't give. I woke up in a pool of my own blood, only to hear the nurse whisper the truth I was never meant to know. The silver toxicity hadn't just broken my body; it had killed the unborn pup I didn't even know I was carrying. Marcus had whipped the mother of his own child to protect a liar. He had killed his heir for a woman who was faking her own pregnancy. That night, as I crawled through the mud to escape, the weak Runt died. In the freezing waters of the river, my bones snapped and reshaped. I didn't just shift; I became the legendary White Wolf. And when Marcus finally realized the truth and came begging on his knees, I looked at him with my new, violet eyes and prepared to give him the rejection he deserved.
