Chapter 1 The choosing

Sarah felt a rush of anxiety as she got ready for the Choosing.

It was the day when wolves that had now become fully fledged were given a mate chosen by the moon goddess.

The Choosing happens once every year. Not everyone was lucky to find a mate and if they didn't, they could always try again the next year and the goddess always chose their mate but for Sarah it was different.

This was her fourth time attending the Choosing since she became a full-fledged wolf and the moon goddess had still not given her anyone.

There were whispers about how her destiny was to never bond with anyone.

Sarah refused to believe this. She prayed to the goddess every year for her true mate and she believed today was her day.

She got dressed in her usual tank top and sweatpants because they were easy to tear off if she accidentally transforms.

Sometimes she feared her accidental transformations were what made the goddess not to find her a match.

She was a Delta, unpredictable, a ticking time bomb in most cases, uncontrollable by anyone but the Alpha.

She was yet to master control over her powers and that only made the members of her pack wary of her.

Her house was close to the woods and it wasn't so far from the pack's cave.

Excitement with mixed anxiety filled her as she approached the caves. Even as the scent of fear and anxiety of new fully-fledged filled up the cave, there was still hearty laughter and chats going around.

The pack cave was circular and deep it had no corners to hide with chairs and tables made out of stone all around.

Sarah scanned her eyes around the cave and found a single seat at the back away from the others.

They didn't want her around anyway. As she approached her chair beside it sat the Alpha. Her feelings of anxiety quickly turned to anger. They didn't exactly have a good history.

She bowed her head to her Alpha as a sign of respect. He waved his hands without giving her much of a glance.

The Alpha, Dean Daniels tall and nicely tanned. He had the most beautiful golden eyes of any Alpha she had ever seen. He was handsome and she hated him.

What was he doing here anyway? The Alpha wasn't obligated to come to the Choosing. He had lost his mate two years ago in turf between hunters and he'd nearly gone mad if it wasn't for his Beta.

No one had seen it as a weakness because losing your mate was a terrible thing.

Maybe he had come to oversee things at the Choosing or to find a new mate? That would be absurd.

The Ceremony would start when the full moon was at its peak and it wouldn't be long now.

She kept stealing glances at the Alpha. Without meaning to, he was the centre of attraction.

"Would you please stop staring, it's uncomfortable" Dean said without looking at her "Sorry, it's all the anxiety of this damn ceremony" she lied. Why are you here?

"Don't be nervous Tanner, today might just be your lucky day." He looked at her and smiled. He must be in a really good mood trying to wish her well.

"Save it. We both know you don't care," she quickly answers.

He smirks in his usual way. God, he's handsome. "If you knew I wouldn't why'd you tell me all the shit about anxiety" he retorts.

Before she can reply they all suddenly feel the rise of the moon at its peak. It was starting. The Choosing was starting. Scents of excitement filled the air.

The elder in charge of the ceremony came out to the front of the cave. He was a bald man in his fifties and had a bald head with a full beard.

He wore a dark brown robe and had a staff in hand. He was a shaman, a connection between the goddess and the wolves.

Every pack had one and they were able to perform certain specific magic. They were very wise and very powerful. He was also her teacher.

The Shaman with his eyes closed lifted his staff and hit it three times on the ground. The sound made a resounding echo around the cave.

When he opened his eyes they were pure white. There was silence and tension in the air.

Sarah felt a tingle on her right upper arm where her moon tattoo was and that identified her as a member of the pack.

Beside her crescent-shaped tattoo, she had the Greek symbol identifying her as a Delta, which everyone in the pack had. The sensation only increased and it began to glow.

This had never happened before. Could it be that she was finally being chosen? Was the moon goddess finally giving her a mate?

Excitement filled her and everyone turned to look at her, anticipating who the goddess had finally chosen for her. She could feel him.

She turned to her right. Just across her was Gary a Gamma. He was one of the strongest in the pack.

He had sat out the choosing for last year, stating he wasn't ready to have a mate just yet.

She was excited.

Her new mate was going to be a strong Gamma. Just then she heard a strong growl. The sensation was reducing.

"No, no, no." it was Gary. He had his left arm across his chest holding his right upper arm,like holding it tight would stop him from feeling the sensation.

Sarah felt a cold chill down her spine.

"Speak up," said the Shaman. His voice wasn't loud but it echoed through the cave.

Beside her the Alpha stayed quiet, watching.

"I reject!" Gary's voice was so loud it almost echoed.

What did he mean by rejecting what was going on? Sarah looked to the Shaman for help. She didn't understand.

The rope around her chest was becoming tighter.

I was finally brought back to the billionaire Vance estate after years in the grimy foster system, but the luxury Lincoln felt more like a funeral procession. My biological family didn't welcome me with open arms; they looked at me like a stain on a silk shirt. They thought I was a "defective" mute with cognitive delays, a spare part to be traded away. Within hours of my arrival, my father decided to sell me to Julian Thorne, a bitter, paralyzed heir, just to secure a corporate merger. My sister Tiffany treated me like trash, whispering for me to "go back to the gutter" before pouring red wine over my dress in front of Manhattan's elite. When a drunk cousin tried to lay hands on me at the engagement gala, my grandmother didn't protect me-she raised her silver-topped cane to strike my face for "embarrassing the family." They called me a sacrificial lamb, laughing as they signed the prenuptial agreement that stripped me of my freedom. They had no idea I was E-11, the underground hacker-artist the world was obsessed with, or that I had already breached their private servers. I found the hidden medical records-blood types A, A, and B-a biological impossibility that proved my "parents" were harboring a scandal that could ruin them. Why bring me back just to discard me again? And why was Julian Thorne, the man supposedly bound to a wheelchair, secretly running miles at dawn on his private estate? Standing in the middle of the ballroom, I didn't plead for mercy. I used a text-to-speech app to broadcast a cold, synthetic threat: "I have the records, Richard. Do you want me to explain genetics to the press, or should we leave quietly?" With the "paralyzed" billionaire as my unexpected accomplice, I walked out of the Vance house and into a much more dangerous game.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

The $300 Husband Is A Zillionaire

I woke up in a blindingly white hotel penthouse with a throbbing headache and the taste of betrayal in my mouth. The last thing I remembered was my stepsister, Cathie, handing me a flute of champagne at the charity gala with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. Now, a tall, dangerously handsome man walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his hips. On the nightstand sat a stack of hundred-dollar bills. My stepmother had finally done it—she drugged me and staged a scandal with a hired escort to destroy my reputation and my future. "Aisha! Is it true you spent the night with a gigolo?" The shouts of a dozen reporters echoed through the heavy oak door as camera flashes exploded through the peephole. My phone lit up with messages showing my bank accounts were already frozen. My father was invoking the 'morality clause' in my mother’s trust fund, and my fiancé had already released a statement dumping me to marry my stepsister instead. I was trapped, penniless, and being hunted by the press for a scandal I hadn't even participated in. My own family had sold me out for a payday, and the man standing in front of me was the only witness who could prove I was innocent—or finish me off for good. I didn't have time to cry. According to the fine print of the trust, I had thirty days to prove my "rehabilitation" through a legal marriage or I would lose everything. I tracked the man down to a coffee shop the next morning, watching him take a thick envelope of cash from a wealthy older woman. I sat across from him and slid a napkin with a $50,000 figure written on it. "I need a husband. Legal, paper-signed, and convincing." He looked at the number, then at me, a slow, crooked smile spreading across his face. I thought I was hiring a desperate gigolo to save my inheritance. I had no idea I was actually proposing to Dominic Fields, the reclusive billionaire shark who was currently planning a hostile takeover of my father’s entire empire.
