"And when at night, those tiny sobs ran into full-blown tears, that was when I knew that whatever we had was gone" ******************** All her life, if Tiara had been asked what she wanted in life, she would have given just one answer, which was to be in Bernard's arms, be his Luna, and birth his kids but all of that turned into a messy dream on that fateful night where she lost it all. Embroiled with nothing else but revenge in her mind, the last person she imagined would assist her was the lycan king. He needed her just like he needed air, and she wanted him because she wanted to exert revenge on those who had hurt her, but nothing had prepared her for the secret he held back. The one that broke her further into smithereens, with an age-long secret dangling at her face and both mates wanting her back, what path is she going to take when she is tossed in between betrayal, heartbreak, and a second chance?

Chapter 1 Betrayal

Tiara's POV

" Do you, Alpha Bernard, take Zara as your Luna and mate? To uphold and to hold in holy matrimony?"

My hands clenched on the gown I had on, tears welled up in my eyes threatening to spill as they fixated on him.

Everything screamed in me to speak up, to let everyone know that I was against the marriage happening right now but my world crashed at the next word that was uttered.

" I do," Bernard uttered with a smile so wide on his face that tears stung my eyes.

Mustering up the strength, my feet padded across the huge room back to the cab waiting for me.

" Take me back" I said in a whisper, unable to recognize my voice.

Staring blankly, fond memories sipped in of I and Bernard which had just about turned out to all be lies, I tried to swallow the lump stuck in my throat, but it seemed rather persistent.

" Thank you" A smile graced my face at the cab driver who nodded at me, not before giving me a sympathetic look as I sauntered over to the trailer in the pack where our love story had begun.

My legs found their way to the kitchen, needles jabbed my heart endlessly as I picked up the celery, slicing through when barely minutes after, the door was yanked open and my body collided against the warmth of another.

With nose nuzzled against my neck and breath fanning my ears, he said in a whisper." I have missed you so much, Tiara, what is for dinner?"

" Where were you?" My hands clenched tight around the knife, squeezing my eyes before flickering them right open.

" Work was so hectic, but I am done, and I am here with you now. What do you want me to do? Assist you with the veggies? I can do that, also...we can watch that series that you have wanted all this while" he suggested.

A peal of laughter erupted through my throat as I placed the knife by the side, my eyes pivoting round until they were staring at him.

" You were at work? Bernard, are you going to do this? Right now?" My voice came out in broken shells.

He looked stunned, his eyes morphed into shock when he saw the tears I was trying to hold back.

" I was at work, what are you talking about? That is where I am always and...."

" Oh, please stop it!" I was tired of this charade he was putting up, how he was acting as if he had done nothing.

Slipping my hands into my pocket, I drifted the card at him.

" That is where you have been all day! While I stayed back at home, washing your clothes, making sure you had something to eat when you are back, you were out there getting married to my sister, of all people, how could you get married to my sister?" I raged as the crystal I held in, snaked down my porcelain face.

The sizzling of the pot rang across the air telling me they needed my attention, but I was done being the housewife he wanted.

" Tiara..." he held a hand out, racking a hand through his hair. "I can explain what it is, I didn't do this on purpose. I mean come on, you know I love you and...."

My fingers poked him on his chest, with my eyes glaring daggers as I wished that he would be hurt just like I was.

" You don't tell me you love me when you got married to someone else already! I dedicated my life to you, I did whatever you wanted me to and this is how you repay me? You should have done better. You owed me that"

" I owe you nothing!" He retaliated, my eyes widened at his words.

" I gave you a home, you had recognition because of me, everyone knew you because of me.... Oh, the alpha is dating that poor lowly omega, he is such a sweet man. That was all because of me and you knew it"

A chuckle of laughter escaped my throat, my heart slammed so hard against its rib cage that I couldn't breathe for a second.

Everything in spirals as my world darkened. I had loved him even more than I had loved myself. I had felt the bond, the pain with him, I was there when everyone didn't want him and now....

"And then you had to do that with my sister? Why wasn't I ever enough?" I muttered out.

" She is better in every way that you would ever be. You did your part and she did hers. You were never supposed to find out, if you weren't nosy, you wouldn't have known about this." He exhaled.

"We would have still been the same sweet couple everyone knew" he squeezed the paper into a ball, advancing further.

My wolf writhed in pain, snarling and growling at the betrayal, but there was nothing that could be done. Fisting my palm, I glared at him, watching as he halted in his footsteps.

With determination coating my tone, I said. " I don't want you anymore. I am renouncing our bond, from today onwards, we have nothing together"

My stomach twisted as air knocked off me. I couldn't think anymore, with reddened eyes, I tried to walk past when he held my wrist.

"You can't go.... Tiara...you can't...no one will love you as you are, no one will desire you as you are. I will take you as my mistress, stay back and be my mistress....just don't...don't go"

My feet halted, transfixed to the spot as I shook my head, trying not to succumb to his request, wriggling his hands off, I sneered at his words.

"You may find me undesirable, but that doesn't mean other men look at me the same way"

I picked up the pace, his growling voice behind me faded as I ran down the pavement, crashing into a nearby bar.

" A gin and tonic please" I placed a dollar bill on the table.

I had made a resolve to get wasted but when the alcohol hit the right spot, all I was instead, was a crying mess.

A gentle voice pierced through my reverie, jolting me out of it as I sniffed in, flicking my head around, my eyes met with honey brown orbs that seared into me.

I was lost in them for a minute, before staring elsewhere. Tossing his glass at me, he winked. "You look like you need company" his tone made my head muddled.

My stomach reeled in, heat pooled between my legs as a sandalwood scent drifted into my nostrils, awakening and intoxicating all of my senses.

" What gave it away?" I questioned, a gentle smile tugging at my lips, trying to look beyond the fact that I was soaked in-between my legs already.

His lips curved into a smile. "Your eyes, has anyone told you how easy it would be reading you?"

I shrugged, trying so hard to get rid of him until the music came up. A smile hinged at the edge of my lips as I nodded to it, memories of I and Bernard waltzing to it came on.

"You like it?" I bobbed my head.

"Then dance with me," he had a hand stretched out, waiting for me to take it.

" I am drunk, I can't" I waved him off when he insisted.

" If things doesn't go the way they should, I am surely going to take care of you, you don't have to worry about that. Just trust me"

My teeth dug gently into my lips, before accepting his hands. " One dance and I am done"

I tried to fend off the sizzling attraction I felt to him but when my hands leaned on his shoulders, his orbs locked on mine, I let him sway me away into the night, letting myself go.

"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?
