BILLIONAIRE/WEREWOLF 

I was born a maid in the pack,  unwanted, unloved, and unseen. They said I was the daughter of a servant and that I should be grateful to even breathe the same air as elites. But what no one knew was that I wasn’t who they thought I was. I was stolen from my destiny, stripped of my name, and buried in a life that was never mine.

When I finished school, I was given a job at Blueberries Pack Company. It was already falling apart, but I worked day and night to keep it alive. Still, nothing I did mattered. The Alpha’s precious daughter stole my ideas, my recognition, and even the man I thought I loved. I was used to silence, to being unseen,  until he appeared.

Darlon. The Alpha King. A name spoken with fear and awe. They said he was old, heartless, and cruel. I didn’t know him, and I never imagined our paths would cross. But when the Alpha and his Luna grew desperate to save their company, they forced me to marry him in their daughter’s place. 

I walked down that aisle expecting the worst…But what awaited me on the other side was nothing I could have ever imagined.

I didn’t know it then, but the man I had married wasn’t a stranger at all… He was my fated mate

And through him, I began to uncover the truth about my past, my bloodline, and the power that had been sleeping inside me all along.

"Well," Lira said, her voice dripping sugar and poison, "who let the pauper into a place like this?"


My chest tightened. I swallowed hard and stared at a spot behind her head, anywhere but her eyes.


She tilted her head, the fake innocence in her eyes sharper than any blade. "Did you… Get lost? Or are you trying to window‑shop clothes you can't even spell?"


Her voice carried across the boutique so loudly that two attendants actually turned. My stomach tightened instantly. Janae stepped forward so fast her braids swung behind her.


"What is wrong with you?" Janae snapped, every word sharp and bright.


I touched her wrist before she could move closer. "Janae. Stop." My voice trembled a little. "Please."


Lira's smirk grew as if my fear was entertainment.


"Look at you," she said, letting her eyes travel from my face down to my shoes. "All soft and chubby and shaking. Tell me… does your reflection ever apologize for looking back?"
