His Defiant Luna: The Cursed Prince's Ruthless Bride

Qijia Lady Werewolf

“I woke up in another woman's body at the worst moment of her life. Drugged. Humiliated. Dragged before the entire Moonlight Gala. My fiancé, Alpha Heir Arlin Carlisle, slapped me in front of hundreds of werewolf nobles and accused me of sleeping with his crippled, wolfless royal brother, Prince Dante. My stepsister Jaylin cried beside him like an innocent angel. "She didn't mean to betray you," she sobbed. But I knew the truth. She had poisoned me, thrown me into another man's bed, and tried to steal my engagement, my title, and my future as Luna. They expected me to cry. To beg. To accept my disgrace. Too bad the real Celena was already dead. And the soul inside this body belonged to a battlefield surgeon and forensic doctor who had survived wars, corpses, and blood. So I took a silver lancet, pierced my own finger, and proved in front of everyone that I had been drugged. Then I looked my Alpha fiancé in the eye and annulled our engagement myself. But my revenge had only begun. To bury the scandal, the Alpha King ordered me to marry Prince Dante-the "dying" cripple everyone mocked. They thought it was a punishment. They were wrong. Because I soon discovered Dante was not weak. He was poisoned. Hiding. Waiting. And I was the only woman who could cure him. Now my enemies want me broken. My new husband wants to use me. But I have my own plan. I will heal the cursed prince, take back my power, and make every person who laughed at me kneel.”
