I took a silver bullet for my fated mate, Derek, and fell into a coma for five years. When I finally opened my eyes, I wasn't greeted as a hero. I was handed a deportation order. Because I had burned out my wolf spirit to save his life, I was now "human" and useless to the pack. My marriage had been annulled years ago without my consent. I dragged my atrophied body to our home, only to find Derek with Anjelica, a woman I once called a friend. She was wearing my jewelry and carrying his heir. But the knife in my heart wasn't seeing them together. It was my son. My five-year-old boy, Errol, didn't run to me. He screamed in terror and sprayed me with a bottle of liquid he had been hiding. It hissed against my skin. Wolfsbane. "Go away, monster!" he sobbed, pointing the bottle at me like a weapon. "Mommy Anjelica said this burns the bad things!" I had lost my wolf, my husband, and my child. But they weren't done taking from me. When Anjelica faked a medical emergency, Derek signed a general proxy form. I was dragged into surgery, not as a patient, but as a harvest. I heard the doctor whisper, "She wants her dry." They thought draining my blood would kill me. They didn't know that my "human" shell was just a cocoon for something ancient. I escaped the hospital that night. Standing by the ocean, I threw my wedding ring into the waves. "I, Catherine, reject the bond." Miles away, Derek fell to his knees, vomiting blood as the connection snapped. He thought I was dead. He didn't know the White Wolf had just awakened.

But the knife in my heart wasn't seeing them together. It was my son.

My five-year-old boy, Errol, didn't run to me. He screamed in terror and sprayed me with a bottle of liquid he had been hiding.

It hissed against my skin. Wolfsbane.

"Go away, monster!" he sobbed, pointing the bottle at me like a weapon. "Mommy Anjelica said this burns the bad things!"

I had lost my wolf, my husband, and my child. But they weren't done taking from me.

When Anjelica faked a medical emergency, Derek signed a general proxy form. I was dragged into surgery, not as a patient, but as a harvest.

I heard the doctor whisper, "She wants her dry."

He thought I was dead. He didn't know the White Wolf had just awakened.

Chapter 1

Catherine POV:

The silence was the loudest thing I had ever heard.

For twenty-three years, my mind had been a riot of noise-a sanctuary shared with a wolf spirit who growled at danger and purred at the moon. Now, opening my eyes in the sterile white room of the pack hospital, there was only a hollow echo.

My wolf was gone.

"Dormant," the doctor said, barely looking up from his chart. "You burned through her life force to survive the impact, Catherine. You are... essentially human now."

Human. In the Moonstone Pack, that was a fate worse than death. It meant I was a static channel on a radio that everyone else could hear.

I sat up, my body screaming. The calendar on the wall said 2024. Five years. I had been a vegetable for five years.

I had sacrificed everything to push Derek out of the way of that silver bullet. I took the hit. I took the coma.

And this was my reward.

I walked out of the hospital on trembling legs. No one offered a ride. No one bowed. The nurses didn't look at me with disdain; they looked at me like I was already a ghost.

I made my way to the Pack Administration Hall. The clerk, a young Omega who used to tremble in my presence, popped a bubble of gum and slid a piece of paper across the counter.

"You're not in the system, sweetie," she said. "Check the 'Rogue' registry."

My hands shook as I picked up the document.

Name: Catherine Hale.

Status: Rogue / Human.

Pack Membership: Revoked.

Reason: Inability to fulfill duties. No wolf spirit detected.

Authorized by: Alpha Derek Alexander.

Witnessed by: Elders John and Mary Hale.

My parents. My mate.

They had thrown me out with the trash while I slept. Making a former Luna a Rogue wasn't just an insult; it was an act of war against my dignity.

I had to go to the Manor. I had to hear him say it.

The walk was grueling. As I approached the grand gates, a scent hit me. Not the wild jasmine and rain that used to mark this territory as mine, but a cloying, chemical vanilla.

It smelled like a cheap air freshener trying to cover up a crime scene.

And then I saw them.

Derek stood on the front lawn. He looked older, harder, his eyes glazed with a strange, dull film. Clinging to his arm was Anjelica. The Beta female who had been in the car behind us that day.

But what froze my blood was the small boy running between them.

He had Derek's hair and my eyes. Errol. He was a toddler when I went under. Now he was a child.

"Mommy!" Errol shouted.

My heart leaped. "Errol..."

But he ran past me. He ran straight into Anjelica's open arms.

Anjelica lifted him up, spinning him around. She looked at me over Errol's shoulder, her blue eyes gleaming.

"Oh, look, Derek," she cooed. "The invalid is awake."

Derek turned. His eyes, usually the color of storm clouds, looked... dilated. Unfocused. He blinked, as if trying to clear a fog.

"Catherine," he said. His voice was flat. "You shouldn't be here. This is pack territory."

"I am your Mate," I whispered. "I am the mother of your son."

Errol squirmed in Anjelica's arms. He looked at me, confusion warring with fear on his face.

"She smells like the hospital," Errol whispered to Anjelica. "Make her go away."

Anjelica whispered something in his ear, and the boy flinched.

Go away, a voice echoed in my head. A Mind-Link. Errol's Alpha blood allowed him to force thoughts into my unprotected mind.

You aren't my mom. My mom is strong. You are nothing.

I staggered back.

My parents stepped out from the porch. They stood behind Derek, arms crossed.

"You are embarrassing us, Catherine," my mother said. "Accept the settlement. Derek is paying your bills. Go."

My phone buzzed. A burner I'd hidden in my hospital bag years ago.

"Is this the White Wolf?" a distorted voice asked.

"There is no wolf here," I replied, my voice dead. "Just Kate."

"Good enough," said Kaden, Alpha of the Silver Claws in Zurich. "The offer stands, Kate. Victim or survivor? Choose."

I looked at my reflection in a car mirror. Pale, hollow.

"I want to bury Catherine," I told him. "She died five years ago."

For forty years, I stood by Carroll Baxter's side, building his legacy from a junior state representative to a man whose name echoed with respect. I was Helena Cook, the elegant, intelligent wife, the perfect partner. Then, one afternoon, I saw him in a cheap cafe downtown, sharing a luridly green smoothie with a young woman, Kandy Mays. His face was lit with a joy I hadn't seen in twenty years. It wasn't just a fling; it was an emotional desertion. He was a man in his seventies, obsessed with an heir, and I knew he was looking for a new life in her. I didn't make a scene. I walked away, my heels clicking a steady rhythm that betrayed none of the chaos inside me. He thought I was a fragile art history professor he could discard with a small settlement. He was wrong. That evening, I made his favorite meal. When he came home late, the food was cold. He wanted to talk, to deliver the final blow. I pulled a folder from my desk and looked him straight in the eye. "I have cancer, Carroll. Pancreatic. Six months, maybe less." His face drained of color. It wasn't love or concern; it was the sudden destruction of his plan. A dying wife couldn't be divorced. He was trapped. The weight of his public image, of his carefully constructed reputation, was a cage he had built for himself. He retreated to his study, the click of the lock echoing in the silent room. The next morning, my nephew Jared called. "He kicked her out, Aunt Helena. She was crying her eyes out on the sidewalk."

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.
