Isidora Zytowski Werewolf

“I rushed to Lockwood Industries with my eight-month pregnant belly, carrying the news I had been waiting to share with Zack. The company we had built together for five years was finally preparing for its public offering. That morning, I wanted to find him and fulfill the promise he had made to me-the wedding, the family, and the future we had fought so hard to build. Instead, I found him betraying me with my best friend, Vivian White, inside his executive office. When I stood frozen at the doorway, Zack didn't look guilty. He looked at me with cold disgust. Working together, they fabricated evidence, accused me of corporate espionage, and sent me to prison. Without hesitation, Zack abandoned me and the twins I carried, destroying the future he once promised me. He invoked his Alpha Command, forcing me to my knees, and brutally rejected our sacred mate-bond. Stripped of everything and falsely accused by the man I loved, I was dragged away and locked inside a detention center. Inside that cold prison, I gave birth to twins on a narrow bed, bleeding and helpless with no one by my side. I had spent five years sacrificing everything for him, building Lockwood Industries from the shadows while enduring the humiliation of being a "wolfless orphan." How could he throw me away like garbage after everything I had done for him? But my arrest exposed a secret that had been buried for twenty-four years. The investigation into my identity led the Sterling family-the billionaire royal family of the wolf world, who had spent decades searching for their missing daughter-to find me inside that prison. I woke up in a luxury hospital suite surrounded by my fiercely protective parents and brothers. Through the security feed, I watched the scene outside. Zack was standing at my door, desperately begging my eldest brother for help, completely unaware that the lost Sterling princess he was trying to approach was me. I refused my family's offer to destroy him overnight. I would take back everything he stole from me piece by piece, and make him watch the empire he built collapse.”
