“"Pain throbbed, and the overwhelming scent of ""Alpha"" filled my nostrils as I woke up naked in a stranger's luxurious bed. My heart hammered with terror when I saw Dimitri Barrett, the Alpha heir, sleeping inches away. On my finger, a heavy, intricate moonstone ring pulsed-a mate bond. Suddenly, Dimitri's glacial eyes snapped open, blazing with murderous confusion. ""Who are you?"" he roared, having no memory of me or the matching ring on his own finger. He shoved me from the bed in pure revulsion. Dumped back in my Omega sector, my mother recoiled at his scent on me. She whispered that the ring was a death sentence if the Pack saw it. I was utterly lost, a terrified wolfless Omega bound to a monster who hated me. Why had he claimed me, then rejected me so violently? I had no memory of the night, no idea what this ring truly meant for my life. Before I could even process the nightmare, my mother was brutally murdered. I was found covered in her blood, immediately arrested by human police as the prime suspect. This wasn't just a personal nightmare; it was a deadly trap, and I was framed for a murder I didn't commit, caught in a conspiracy I didn't understand."”
