📖 Genre: Romance / Billionaire / Drama / Secret Identity 🧨 Synopsis: Married to a man who doesn't know her true identity, Amara hides her past as the heiress to a collapsed empire. When her husband-cold, rich, and powerful CEO Damien Blackwood-discovers who she really is, all hell breaks loose. But what he doesn't know is... she never planned to stay married. Until love messed up her plans. Amara was forced into a contract marriage to save her family name. Damien was only in it for appearances. No feelings, no attachment. That was the rule-until secrets surface, past enemies return, and someone starts digging into a truth that could destroy them both.

Chapter 1 Just Sign the Papers

"Sign the papers, and we'll both get what we want."

His voice was cold-clinical. Like this was just another business transaction. Like she wasn't about to sell the last piece of her soul for a man who didn't know the first thing about her.

Amara Hale sat across from Damien Blackwood, the infamous CEO of Blackwood Group. The man with eyes as dark as midnight and a heart even darker. Tall, broad-shouldered, dressed in a black suit that looked like it cost more than her father's hospital bills. He didn't smile. He never did.

"No strings attached. One year. You get your wife. I get my money." She kept her voice calm, steady, but her fingers trembled slightly under the table.

Damien raised an eyebrow, eyes scanning her from head to toe. Not in desire-but in calculation.

"You're not what I expected," he said finally.

She forced a small smile. "Disappointed?"

"Indifferent." His answer was instant, cutting.

Her smile didn't fade, but something behind her eyes flickered.

She picked up the pen and glanced down at the document between them. Marriage Contract. One year. No intimacy unless agreed. Confidential. Divorce upon expiration.

Simple. Cold. Perfect for someone like him.

And for someone like her-hiding behind a name that wasn't hers anymore, with secrets that could get her killed-it was safer this way.

She signed.

Damien didn't even flinch. He picked up the pen and scribbled his signature with the kind of ease that came from signing million-dollar deals every day.

"Congratulations," he said, sliding the folder toward his assistant. "You're now Mrs. Blackwood."

But Amara didn't blink. Didn't smile.

Not yet.

She would play the obedient wife. She would stay quiet, unnoticed.

Until the day she brought him-and everyone else who ruined her family-down to their knees.

My name is Katia, and I am just trying to survive until my fated mate arrives. Which may be easier said than done. Rejectection is the last straw. Whispering my acceptance of his rejection. I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers," it's not your fault, Katia. We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound, waiting for sweet oblivion where we feel nothing ever again. "I love you, my sweet girl! Until we meet again, "My wolf replied just before we hit the water, "I love you too, Katia. I have never regretted a moment with you." The Snow Moon pack is having their last barbecue of the summer next to the waterfall on their land. The adults are laughing and joking while watching the pups play. The alpha, beta, and gamma are swimming with some of the older children and playing a game of Marco Polo. Someone yells, "Oh my goddess, someone just jumped over the waterfall!" Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The small body hits the water like a plane crashing into the side of a mountain. The alpha, beta, and gamma, spring into action, swimming towards the area the person went under. The alpha is screaming his wolf is going crazy repeating, "Find her. Find her...find her!" They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?" Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"
