Beth, an eighteen-year-old Omega, suffers constant abuse from her pack due to a mysterious past. Rejected by her mate, Raphael, the soon-to-be alpha, she sets out to uncover the truth about her identity. After witnessing two murders, Beth is forced to flee her pack. Her escape leads her into the lair of the alpha of the most dreaded pack in the land. Caught in the twists of fate, Beth discovers that her parents might still be alive. Now, with her former pack in desperate need of help, Beth faces a crucial decision: will she save those who tormented her, or seize the opportunity to avenge her past?

Chapter 1 1

Beth found herself luxuriating in the cozy, humidified comfort of a limousine. The touch of ecstasy and luxury was everywhere. Was this real? she wondered. Of course, it was.

"Would you like something to drink?" asked a pretty woman kneeling before her, barely lifting her head to meet Beth's gaze.

"Just a glass of wine will suffice," Beth replied, leaning back against the limousine's cushion with her hands resting on her stomach. "Actually, it's getting a bit chilly. Do we have anything hot?"

"Yes," the woman replied, still not looking up. "We have different brands of liquor. Which would you prefer?"

"Don't ask silly questions," Beth said, crossing her legs. "You know my taste. Be quick about it."

A smile spread across Beth's lips. This was really happening. But something felt off. The woman kneeling before her was Jael. There was no way Jael would kneel before her. The liquor was served, and as Beth was sipping from the bottle, she heard a loud noise outside. They had arrived. The door opened, and she stepped out to a glorious chant of "All hail the Luna!"

While absorbing the scene, a large man started approaching. Waves of fear swept through her as her breathing became intense. It was Raphael. Why was he approaching her? She retraced her steps with every stride he took. But instead of the confrontation she expected, Raphael knelt before her, bowing his head.

"How may I serve you?" he asked.

Beth's ears couldn't believe it. There was no way Raphael would kneel before her. This couldn't be real. Her life was miserable and frustrating.

"Dumbass!" a familiar voice called. "Beth, you dumbass!"

Beth looked around, searching for the voice. "Who called me a dumbass?" No response came. The once reverent faces around her now looked disgusted.

"Beth! Get up!" the voice continued. "Get up, you dumbhead. You don't want to wake up? You like games, huh? Wait for me."

Reality began to creep in. The limousine ride wasn't real. She was dreaming. She struggled to stay in the dream as indistinct voices from the background reached her ears.

"You don't want to wake up, huh?" A pack member lifted a bucket of water and poured it over Beth's rugged body.

A surge of energy coursed through her as she jolted awake.

"Woahh!!" Beth screamed, forcing herself up. Her surroundings came into focus slowly. Pain was everywhere.

"She's finally up," Jael said, laughing mockingly. "How do you manage to sleep in this junk of a place?"

Beth couldn't respond. Her head was still reeling. A dream?

"Was... was I dreaming?" she asked, looking around the attic she called home. As the outcast of her pack, no one had anything to do with her. While everyone else rested in comfort, she curled up in this awful space.

"You'd better get up," Jael said. "What am I saying? Drag this fool to Raphael."

The name echoed in her mind.

"Raphael?" Beth knelt, clutching Jael's legs.

"What is this supposed to mean?" Jael sneered.

"Please, don't take me to him. I'll do anything you ask," Beth pleaded.

"Wow." Jael clapped her hands. "You know what? I won't take you to him."

"Really? Thank you, Jael. Thank you."

"Don't thank me yet, outcast. I won't take you to him. You'll have to take yourself to him."

Laughter filled the place.

"And one more thing, Beth," Jael said, bringing her lips close to Beth's ear. "You were talking in your sleep."

Beth recoiled. No way. She couldn't have said anything incriminating.

"Drag this bitch to Raphael!"

The mob wasted no time. In minutes, they arrived before Raphael. As the heir apparent to the alpha throne, every pack member wanted to stay on his good side, leading to Beth's constant torment.

"Please, spare me this time," she sobbed, rubbing her palms together as if praying.

Raphael rose and walked to her. With every step, Beth's heart melted.

"What is your offense?" Raphael asked, squatting before her.

"I... I..." she trembled. "I failed to wake up in time. And couldn't-" Before she could finish, Raphael grabbed her jaw tightly.

"What is your offense?" he repeated, his tone aggressive.

"Jael, repeat what you told me," Raphael ordered.

"The outcast said, 'You don't have to kneel before me, Raphael,'" Jael reported.

Beth quavered. She knew she was doomed.

"I knelt before you?" Raphael smirked. "The heir apparent knelt before a slut like you. Who else knelt before you?"

Beth remained silent.

"Answer me!"

"Jael served me wine," she admitted.

"Give this girl the worst punishment of her life. When she's done, send her to the main house to clean my father's room."

Murmurs spread through the crowd. Cleaning the alpha's room was a death sentence. The mob began lashing her, their joyous laughter drowning out her cries.

Many feet away, an aged wolf watched in disgust. Maybe it was time for Beth to learn who she really was.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

5.0

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
