From Rejected and Abused to Luna

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

Erika's POV

In the meeting room of the Fly Rock Pack.

All the pack leaders were listening to Alpha Charles' speech intently, except me, the Gamma of the pack.

Last night I went on rogue hunting as usual and didn't come back until two o'clock this morning. I got up at seven to attend this meeting. So I was sleepy and tired.

I soon lost my concentration. It was hard for an eighteen-year-old girl to sit through a boring meeting.

"Do you understand, Erika?"

Alarmed by a harsh male voice, I sat up and looked around. What had Charles just said? I hadn't fallen asleep, but I still missed it.

Beta Steve sat opposite me. He sneered. "Huh, fallen asleep again?"

I rolled my eyes at him and just ignored him. Steve was jealous of me. He would gloat at every possible opportunity.

Sorry, what did you just say? I mind-linked Charles. I was unable to talk and could only communicate through mind-link.

Charles tugged at his hair and looked at me speechlessly. He used to get angry, but he had gotten used to it.

"You must not go rogue hunting alone! The border encounters are increasing drastically, and the West Ford Pack has provoked us several times these days. Take some warriors with you next time you go rogue-hunting!" Charles growled at me.

I don't need any warriors. I can handle everything myself. I mind-linked him.

"I know you are strong enough. Just to be safe, bring at least two warriors with you."

Alpha, seriously, you don't have to worry about my safety. I mind-linked him.

"That's the order!" He commanded as the alpha of the pack.

OK. I mind-linked him and shrugged.

It was not that I would do as he said.

"There's another important issue," Charles said with a frown, "As you all know, the West Ford Pack is causing more and more trouble these days, which could lead to war if we can’t come to an agreement. In order to prevent a war, I have to contact the Blood Moon Pack to form an alliance.”

Alpha’s words caused an uproar. We all knew that by "forming an alliance" he meant "asking for help". Although I worked hard to train new warriors, we didn't have many warriors and getting into war would be disastrous for us.

But the Blood Moon Pack was backward, unorganized, and barbarian. They were the last ones people wanted to ask for help. It was said that the alpha of their pack was the most savage and cruel alpha that had ever existed.
