The Secret Alpha King's Unexpected Contract Mate

“My mother was dying in the ICU, needing a million-dollar surgery that had to be paid today. When I desperately begged my family for help, my stepfather and stepmother decided to sell me to a notoriously brutal Alpha as a "wedding gift" in exchange for the money. They brought him right into our living room. He looked at me like a piece of meat, his thugs blocking every exit. My stepmother dug her nails into my arm, hissing that if I dared to reject him, she would pull the plug on my mother's life support immediately. My stepsister just laughed, mocking my low Omega status and telling me I should be grateful to finally be of some use to this family. I was entirely trapped, suffocating under the cruelty of the people who were supposed to protect me. But they didn't know one crucial detail. They didn't know that during a blizzard the night before, I had accidentally saved the life of a heavily wounded man. And they definitely didn't know that this man was Kaelen Beaumont, the ruthless, legendary Alpha King of our entire pack. I touched the cold, black metal card he had left in my pocket, remembering his terrifying silver eyes and his impossible demand. I looked at my family's smug, greedy faces, and my heart turned to stone. I pulled out my phone and dialed the encrypted number. "I agree to your terms," I whispered. "I will be your Mate."”
