I was the lead architect for the Pack's billion-dollar tech company, and I was secretly carrying the Alpha's heir. I thought the merger would finally make Caleb Mark me. Instead, I walked into my office to find a mistress sitting in my chair. Caleb didn't just fire me. When I refused to hand over the encryption keys to the system I built, he locked me in a reinforced closet lined with silver mesh. For a pregnant wolf, silver is poison. I pounded on the door until my knuckles bled. "Caleb! Please! It burns! I'm losing the baby!" I screamed until my voice broke, feeling the life drain from my womb. But outside the door, his mistress laughed. "Don't listen to her, Caleb. She's just a weak Omega faking it for attention." And my Fated Mate believed her. He left me in that dark box while our son died in a pool of my own blood. He thought he had broken me. He thought I would die a silent death so he could parade his fake heir around. He forgot one thing: I wrote the code that runs his entire life. Three days later, I didn't show up to the hospital morgue. I rolled my wheelchair onto the stage of his global press conference, flanked by the rival Alpha he feared most. I held up the remote to the main server. "You killed my son for a lie, Caleb," I smiled into the microphone as the screens behind him broadcast the footage of his crime. "Now, say goodbye to your empire."

I was the lead architect for the Pack's billion-dollar tech company, and I was secretly carrying the Alpha's heir.

I thought the merger would finally make Caleb Mark me.

Instead, I walked into my office to find a mistress sitting in my chair.

Caleb didn't just fire me. When I refused to hand over the encryption keys to the system I built, he locked me in a reinforced closet lined with silver mesh.

For a pregnant wolf, silver is poison.

I pounded on the door until my knuckles bled.

"Caleb! Please! It burns! I'm losing the baby!"

I screamed until my voice broke, feeling the life drain from my womb.

But outside the door, his mistress laughed. "Don't listen to her, Caleb. She's just a weak Omega faking it for attention."

And my Fated Mate believed her.

He left me in that dark box while our son died in a pool of my own blood.

He thought he had broken me. He thought I would die a silent death so he could parade his fake heir around.

He forgot one thing: I wrote the code that runs his entire life.

Three days later, I didn't show up to the hospital morgue.

I rolled my wheelchair onto the stage of his global press conference, flanked by the rival Alpha he feared most.

I held up the remote to the main server.

"You killed my son for a lie, Caleb," I smiled into the microphone as the screens behind him broadcast the footage of his crime. "Now, say goodbye to your empire."

Chapter 1

Brooke POV:

The sharp sting of antiseptic cut through the air, burning my nose. It was chemical, cold, and completely devoid of the earthy warmth I needed. I sat on the edge of the hospital bed, hands trembling as they hovered over my flat stomach.

"You're running on fumes, Ms. Myers," the doctor had said, not bothering to hide the pity in his eyes. "Your wolf is dormant because your body is funneling everything into the pregnancy. You need bed rest. Zero stress. Or you lose it."

Zero stress. I almost laughed.

I was the lead architect for Silver Moon Tech. The pack's entire economy ran on the code I bled to write. We were days away from the Apex merger, a deal that would secure our future. And I was doing it all for him.

Caleb.

My Alpha. My Fated Mate.

I checked my phone. Zero missed calls. Zero texts. I'd collapsed face-first onto the tile during a code review, and my mate couldn't be bothered to see if I was breathing.

"I have to go," I whispered to the empty room.

I signed the AMA forms. My wolf was silent, conserving her strength for the tiny spark of life growing inside me. I needed to tell Caleb about the pup. Maybe this would change things. Maybe he'd finally stop hiding us.

I caught a cab to Silver Moon Tower. The glass spire pierced the sky, a monument to the wealth my algorithms built.

I walked to the security gates, pressing my thumb against the scanner.

Access Denied.

The red light blinked. I frowned and tried again.

Access Denied. User Unknown.

My heart hammered against my ribs. I was the Chief Architect. I wrote the damn security protocols.

"Let me in," I told the guard, a young Beta named Leo.

Leo wouldn't meet my eyes. He shifted, the scent of anxiety rolling off him like sour milk. "I can't, Brooke. Alpha's orders. Your clearance has been pulled."

"Pulled? By who?"

"The new Director of Operations."

I didn't wait. I punched in my manual override-a backdoor I kept for catastrophic system failures-and the gate hissed open. Leo looked terrified, but he didn't stop me.

I stormed toward the elevator, exhaustion replaced by a cold dread. When the doors opened on the top floor, the scent hit me.

Cheap, cloying vanilla mixed with synthetic rose. It was trying too hard. And it was coming from my office.

I pushed the glass doors open.

Krystal Schroeder was sitting in my ergonomic chair, spinning my pen between her manicured fingers. She looked up, lips curling into a smirk that didn't reach her eyes.

"Back early," she said, her voice high and grating. "Thought the Healers would keep you overnight."

"Get out of my chair, Krystal."

"Your chair?" She laughed, standing up and smoothing down a dress that was two sizes too small. She puffed out her chest, releasing pheromones that smelled like desperation. "Caleb appointed me. He needs a real wolf for the Apex merger. Not a weak Omega who passes out looking at a monitor."

"Where is he?"

"Right here."

The voice came from behind me, deep and resonating. The Alpha Tone.

I turned. Caleb stood there in a suit I'd bought him. He looked magnificent, but his eyes-usually warm in private-were dead cold.

"Caleb," I breathed. "Why is my access revoked? Why is she in my office?"

He didn't reach for me. He stepped back, standing next to Krystal.

"Brooke," he said, flatly. "You're relieved of your duties. Go home."

"Go home? The presentation is in forty-eight hours! The Alpha Code isn't compiled. Only I can-"

"Krystal will handle it."

"Krystal?" I looked at her. "She failed high school algebra. She can't read the syntax, let alone compile a defense grid!"

"Watch your tone," Caleb growled. The air grew heavy. He was using the Command on me. My knees buckled. My wolf whined, forced to bow her head.

I clutched my stomach, fighting the gravity. "Caleb, please. We need to talk. Privately."

He looked at Krystal, then back at me. "Anything you have to say, you can say in front of the future Luna."

The words hung in the air like a guillotine blade.

Future Luna.

I looked at Krystal, beaming with triumph. Then at Caleb. He wasn't joking.

"But..." My voice broke. "I am your mate."

"You are an Omega," Caleb said, devoid of emotion. "A useful tool, Brooke. But Silver Moon needs a Luna who can produce strong heirs. Not a runt who can't even shift properly."

I felt the bond between us-that golden thread connecting our souls-turn necrotic. And on him, under his musk, I smelled it.

Vanilla and synthetic rose.

"You cheated on me," I whispered.

"I did what an Alpha must do. Now, leave. Before I have security drag you out."

I looked at the man I had loved since sixteen. The man I built an empire for. The father of the child inside me. And I saw a stranger.

"Fine," I said, fighting the crushing pressure of his Tone. "I'm leaving. But I'm taking the Alpha Code patent. It's in my name."

Caleb laughed, a cruel bark. "You're an Omega, Brooke. Without the Pack, you're nothing. You'll be a Rogue within a week. You'll come crawling back."

He turned his back. Krystal waved her fingers, mouthing 'Bye-bye.'

I walked out. I didn't cry. Not yet.

I made it to the street before the wind hit me. I was jobless. I was about to be homeless.

But I wasn't helpless.

I pulled out my phone, navigating to a contact hidden under a triple-layer firewall.

I dialed.

"Speak," a voice answered. Not a greeting. A command.

"Easton Jensen," I said.

A pause. "Brooke Myers. The brains behind Silver Moon. To what do I owe the pleasure? Finally realized your talent is wasted on that boy you call an Alpha?"

Easton Jensen. Alpha of Blood River. The boogeyman parents used to scare their pups.

"I have a proposition," I said. "I have the Alpha Code. And I want to watch Silver Moon burn."

"I'm listening," Easton purred.

I looked back at the tower one last time. "I'm coming to get everything they took from me. Starting with their future."

I sat in the Alpha suite, convincing myself I had done the right thing. I had just rejected Alex, my fated mate. She was a weak Omega, and my pack needed a strong Luna like Iliana. But then, I overheard my twin children whispering in the backseat of the car. "My tummy hurts, Kenny," my daughter whimpered. "It's the special juice Auntie Iliana gave us. It tastes like fire." My blood ran cold. I demanded a toxicology report immediately. The results nearly brought me to my knees: Wolfsbane. The woman I had placed on a pedestal, the woman I broke my bond for, had been slowly poisoning my heirs to clear her path to power. I executed Iliana’s punishment and immediately turned the convoy around, racing toward the Silver Moon territory where Alex had taken refuge. I clutched the old silver engagement ring in my sweating palm. I was the Alpha. We were fated. I could fix this. She would forgive me once she knew the truth. But when I arrived, I didn't find a broken woman waiting for her savior. I found a Goddess. Alex stood on the dais, her skin glowing with the legendary bioluminescence of the White Wolf bloodline. Standing protectively beside her was Daniel Sosa, the most ruthless Alpha in the region. I rushed forward, falling to my knees and holding up the ring. "Alex, please! I made a mistake! Come home!" The crowd went silent. I waited for her to cry, to run into my arms. Instead, she looked at me with eyes devoid of love. "You didn't just break my heart, Gavyn," she said coldly. "You broke the sacred law." Then, she turned to Daniel. "Watch, Gavyn," she whispered, her voice carrying on the wind. "This is what real love looks like." She pulled Daniel down and kissed him, and the world exploded in silver light, sealing a new bond right before my eyes.

The cold ultrasound gel didn't dim the warmth in my heart; I was six months pregnant with a healthy baby girl, a dream I’d chased for ten years with my husband, Ethan. I drove home, convinced this daughter would finally heal our fractured marriage, my heart swelling with hope. I found Ethan in our marital bed, tangled with an Instagram model – my world shattered. This wasn't the first time; a flash of memory showed me screaming, throwing a vase, and then being shoved down a grand staircase in another life, losing our previous child. But this time, a cold clarity washed over me instead of rage. I simply turned and walked away, divorcing Ethan and his toxic world with startling speed. My own mother dismissed his affairs as mere "needs," urging me to secure child support and prioritize their financial comfort over my pain. Then, came the ultimate humiliation at the clinic: Ethan arriving with his new mistress, who cruelly mocked me, claiming to carry his "real heir," while his fury was aimed directly at me. In that moment, a devastating truth became clear: to truly escape his suffocating control, to protect any future for myself, I had to make the most agonizing choice of my life. How could I bring a child into such a poisonous legacy, a world where the man who should protect us was the ultimate aggressor? His actions forced me to sacrifice a precious life, ripping away my choice and my daughter, just to reclaim my very freedom. So I boarded a one-way flight to Oregon, burning every bridge to my old life, ready to rebuild from the ashes.

"Mark, we're over." The words, simple and clean, were the hardest I' d ever spoken, yet they carried the sweet taste of freedom. After a lifetime of his smooth, confident voice, it was over. My hands trembled as I hung up, staring at my reflection in the cheap motel window-pale and thin, but with a light in my eyes I hadn' t seen in a decade. Because this wasn' t the first time I' d lived this nightmare. In another life, just days after my brother David' s tragic death, Mark had delivered the second crushing blow: my university admission, my future, was gone. He' d proposed amidst my grief, a manipulative anchor to a broken woman. For ten years, he' d used children and false promises to keep me trapped, extinguishing my spirit until I withered and died at 32, a ghost haunting my own life. Then, I witnessed him standing over my grave, a strange relief on his face, boasting that he' d traded my life and my brother's legacy for Emily White. Emily, who got my university slot, Emily, who built an empire on David' s invention. He never loved me; I was just a transaction. Now, I was back, reborn in this dingy motel room, the memory of that cold grave clinging to me. Mark's frantic calls and aggressive banging shook the door. He was no longer smooth, but raw, demanding. He thought I was his grieving, pliable fiancée, to be managed. But I crushed that old fear. I locked him out, confronting him through the chain with a truth that stunned him. My brother was dead, and I was finally thinking clearly. He' d given Emily what was mine? It was time for him to pay. This wasn' t an act of petulance; it was a promise. This time, I would save myself.

I sat on the cold tile floor of our Upper East Side penthouse, staring at the two pink lines until my vision blurred. After ten years of loving Julian Sterling and three years of a hollow marriage, I finally had the one thing that could bridge the distance between us. I was pregnant. But Julian didn't come home with flowers for our anniversary. He tossed a thick manila envelope onto the marble coffee table with a heavy thud. Fiona, the woman he'd truly loved for years, was back in New York, and he told me our "business deal" was officially over. "Sign it," He said, his voice flat and devoid of emotion. He looked at me with the cold detachment of a man selling a piece of unwanted furniture. When I hesitated, he told me to add a zero to the alimony if the money wasn't enough. I realized in that moment that if he knew about the baby, he wouldn't love me; he would simply take my child and give it to Fiona to raise. I shoved the pregnancy test into my pocket, signed the papers with a shaking hand, and lied through my teeth. When my morning sickness hit, I slumped to the floor to hide the truth. "It's just cramps," I gasped, watching him recoil as if I were contagious. To make him stay away, I invented a man named Jack-a fake boyfriend who supposedly gave me the kindness Julian never could. Suddenly, the man who wanted me gone became a monster of possessiveness. He threatened to "bury" a man who didn't exist while leaving me humiliated at his family's dinner to rush to Fiona's side. I was so broken that I even ate a cake I was deathly allergic to, then had to refuse life-saving steroids at the hospital because they would harm the fetus. Julian thinks he's stalling the divorce for two months to protect the family's reputation for his father's Jubilee. He thinks he's keeping his "property" on a short leash until the press dies down. He has no idea I'm using those sixty days to build a fortress for my child. By the time he realizes the truth, I'll be gone, and the Sterling heir will be far beyond his reach.

Too Late: The Spare Daughter Escapes Him

Too Late: The Spare Daughter Escapes Him

SHANA GRAY

I died on a Tuesday. It wasn't a quick death. It was slow, cold, and meticulously planned by the man who called himself my father. I was twenty years old. He needed my kidney to save my sister. The spare part for the golden child. I remember the blinding lights of the operating theater, the sterile smell of betrayal, and the phantom pain of a surgeon's scalpel carving into my flesh while my screams echoed unheard. I remember looking through the observation glass and seeing him-my father, Giovanni Vitiello, the Don of the Chicago Outfit-watching me die with the same detached expression he used when signing a death warrant. He chose her. He always chose her. And then, I woke up. Not in heaven. Not in hell. But in my own bed, a year before my scheduled execution. My body was whole, unscarred. The timeline had reset, a glitch in the cruel matrix of my existence, giving me a second chance I never asked for. This time, when my father handed me a one-way ticket to London-an exile disguised as a severance package-I didn't cry. I didn't beg. My heart, once a bleeding wound, was now a block of ice. He didn't know he was talking to a ghost. He didn't know I had already lived through his ultimate betrayal. He also didn't know that six months ago, during the city's brutal territory wars, I was the one who saved his most valuable asset. In a secret safe house, I stitched up the wounds of a blinded soldier, a man whose life hung by a thread. He never saw my face. He only knew my voice, the scent of vanilla, and the steady touch of my hands. He called me Sette. Seven. For the seven stitches I put in his shoulder. That man was Dante Moretti. The Ruthless Capo. The man my sister, Isabella, is now set to marry. She stole my story. She claimed my actions, my voice, my scent. And Dante, the man who could spot a lie from a mile away, believed the beautiful deception because he wanted it to be true. He wanted the golden girl to be his savior, not the invisible sister who was only ever good for her spare parts. So I took the ticket. In my past life, I fought them, and they silenced me on an operating table. This time, I will let them have their perfect, gilded lie. I will go to London. I will disappear. I will let Seraphina Vitiello die on that plane. But I will not be a victim. This time, I will not be the lamb led to slaughter. This time, from the shadows of my exile, I will be the one holding the match. And I will wait, with the patience of the dead, to watch their entire world burn. Because a ghost has nothing to lose, and a queen of ashes has an empire to gain.

THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: MARRY TO RIVAL'S SON

"Let's get married," Mia declares, her voice trembling despite her defiant gaze into Stefan's guarded brown eyes. She needs this, even if he seems untouchable. Stefan raises a skeptical brow. "And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it. "We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering. "Shitty fathers. They want to take what's ours and give it to who they think deserves it." A pointed pause hangs in the air. "The only difference between us is that you're an illegitimate child, and I'm not." Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage. "That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child. "The only weapon they won't see coming." She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine. "Our fathers stole our birthrights. The sole reason they betrayed us. We join forces, create our own empire that'll bring down theirs." A beat of silence. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp. "One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance. "No divorces. No surrenders. If we're doing this, it's for life" "Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. Her father wants to destroy her life. She wouldn't give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit. ................ Two shattered heirs. One deadly vow. A marriage built on revenge. Mia Meyers was born to rule her father's empire (so she thought), until he named his bastard son heir instead. Stefan Sterling knows the sting of betrayal too. His father discarded him like trash. Now the rivals' disgraced children have a poisonous proposal: Marry for vengeance. Crush their fathers' legacies. Never speak of divorce. Whoever cracks first loses everything. Can these two rivals, united by their vengeful hearts, pull off a marriage of convenience to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Or will their fathers' animosity, and their own complicated pasts tear their fragile alliance apart?
