Marchioness Harriet Goldlane, a talented noblewoman, made a deal with Old Duke Almandine. To save her younger brother, she was willing to become a substitute for Liam's 'mate', the grandson of the Old Duke. Liam was an Alpha whose 'mate' died long ago. He was severely injured and had been living without a heart for a long time. He could only wake up from his sleep when there was a full moon.

The Old Duke and Liam himself guessed that the man would die soon due to his worsening condition. Because of that, Old Duke wanted Harriet to give birth to an heir to the Almandine Family from Liam's seed so that their family would have a new leader.

The Alpha's replacement bride would soon find that she was in love with the dying man and now they both wished for a miracle to save Liam's life. Could she fulfill her duty to bear the next Alpha for the Almandines? Would Liam survive to protect his bride and family?

The Alpha's Replacement Bride

When they reached the garden, in a large marble pavilion, the people closest to the Emperor had gathered. His secretaries, assistants, and some special staff of the court. If last night was a banquet for the external guests, then today's lunch was more for the Emperor's family and friends. 


"Good afternoon," said Harriet in a slightly loud voice as she approached. 


Everyone turned to her and immediately returned the greeting in a cheerful voice. 


"Ooh, Marchioness, you have finally arrived!" 


"Come here Harri, sit beside me," said the Emperor as he stood up and pulled up the chair next to him. 


Harriet complied with the Emperor's wish and sat down next to him. Meanwhile, Liam sat on the other side of the table, in an empty chair. 


"Aah, I thought you were still sleeping, Master," Axias sneered. 


"I thought the same thing, Axias. Aren't you tired? Not sleepy?" Liam asked with a caring smile and a mocking look.
