After catching her boyfriend cheating on her, Alvira Gibson accepted a two hundred million dollar deal to marry the Alpha of the moonstone pack, Kaldric Verlith.

Her job was to act as his wife until the real Alvira returns and takes her place; however, unaware that she is his mate, Alvira quickly finds herself falling in love with Kaldric, a man she shouldn't want, but her growing desire for him makes her turn her back on the money and the people who had hired her, and unfortunately, it was a decision she soon regrets when the man she loves turns against her.

When everything begins to work against her, will it be too late for Alvira to find out that the heart beating inside her is that of a 200-year-old hybrid who wishes to possess her body?

Cursed by the moon for being a creature that shouldn't exist, Kaldric never expected to have a mate. She was everything he didn't know he needed, and for the first time in his life, he believed someone actually loved him for who he was until he found out that it was all a lie.

The marriage. The bond. Her love. Everything became a lie to him, pushing him to become the monster everyone already believed him to be, and when he finds out that the heart he needs to break his curse beats in the chest of the woman he loves, Kaldric will be forced to make a decision—either live with his curse or end it by ripping the heart of the woman he claims to now hate.

I sat on one of the couches in my office and tilted my head back with a sigh. 


Spending the whole of my morning in meetings and reviewing the company's latest design on the shopping mall that will soon be built at the center of the city has truly been exhausting, but my lips slowly curled into a smile as I remembered Alvira's words to me.


Despite showing her a glimpse of the darkness in me, she still wanted me.


My heart clenches as I wonder if that would still be the case when she finds out the truth. When she realized the type of monster I become at every full moon.
