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

One of the reasons why Yelan and Yesha stayed in the Duchy even though they should've come back to the East was because of Yelan's condition. 


Her sudden fit of heat was what caused it. It was because of the unfinished imprinting ceremony. 


Come to think of it, the Duchess' expression was weird when Yesha saw her just a minute ago. It was weirdly complicated. 


The door to the room opened. Harriet came out of the room with the same complicated expression, covered by her silk veil. 


"Did you wait?" she asked, smiling at him. 


"Yes... what about Yelan?" Yesha asked back. 


Harriet didn't immediately answer. Instead, she looked first into the worry on Yesha's face. 


Yesha widened his eyes. "I-if even you can not solve this, then what should I do?" 


"No, if it was me, I would be able to solve this easily, but because this is Yelan's problem, this is not my place to solve it," Harriet explained.
