When the Billionaire Alpha Grovels

“Eight years ago, I was framed, drugged, and exiled from my pack as a disgraced Omega. Now, my biological father threatened my university transcripts to force me back for my stepsister's grand wedding. But when the groom stepped up to the altar, my blood ran cold. It was Julian Beaumont-the very monster who had orchestrated my ruin and filmed that doctored video. My family knew what he did, yet they still welcomed him just to secure his family's investment. Fleeing the ballroom in a panic, I crashed straight into Duke Garrison, the ruthless Supreme Alpha of our pack. The fated mate bond hit us instantly. But Duke looked at my faded scars with pure disgust, preferring his scheming childhood sweetheart, Bianca. Yet, to secure his billionaire CEO throne from his father's threats, he refused to let me reject him. When I tried to escape the territory, he violently bit my neck and marked me against my will. My own father even whipped my back raw to ensure I played the obedient Luna. I didn't understand why the Moon Goddess would bind my soul to an arrogant Alpha who despised me. I understood even less why my own flesh and blood would torture me just for a seat at the Elders' table. Sitting at the formal engagement breakfast, my torn back bleeding into the velvet chair, I watched Bianca flaunt the Luna's ancestral moonstone bracelet on her wrist. I set my teacup down, locked eyes with my so-called fated mate, and spoke clearly. "You want me to prove my loyalty? Why don't you ask your noble Alpha first why our family's ancestral Luna bracelet is sitting on the wrist of that bitch to his right?"”
