“For three years, I was Alpha Karter Hahn's secret lover. When he hosted a grand banquet for a major announcement, I thought he would finally give me a place in his world. Instead, standing under the spotlight, he proudly introduced his future Luna and true mate. It was my stepsister, Bridgette Davidson. As the crowd cheered, Karter kissed her passionately, completely erasing my existence. My own mother didn't even care; she just dragged me out of the hall to sell me off to another Alpha for our family's benefit. When I tried to cut ties and leave, Karter blocked my way, arrogantly claiming I was just throwing a dramatic tantrum and that our three years were never serious. I had wasted my youth and my heart on a man who treated me like a cheap joke. He truly believed I was so blind and pathetic that I would stay trapped in his gilded cage forever, begging for his leftover affection. But he was dead wrong. I poured a vase of ice water over their writhing bodies, signed a marriage certificate with the terrifyingly powerful Alpha Kane Reynolds, and took back my multi-million dollar inheritance. This time, I am the one walking away.”
