"Did you think that I would marry you instead of her? C'mon, you are only an orphan. No one knows where you originate from," Vickson's words kept repeating in Hailey's head after he had just embarrassed her by choosing her stepsister as his mate instead.
As if that was not enough for him, he still forced himself on her. And Hailey is blamed by her adoptive mother, as she forces the both of them to get married. She didn't want to bear the shame of what people would say.
But her stepsister, Ava, would rather die than watch the two of them live in peace as husband and wife….
Ava becomes their worst nightmare!

Emilia gasped. "No... it can't be. They know. They know she's the real Alpha."

I exhaled sharply. "She's been through enough."

"And she will go through worse if she's unprepared!" Emilia retorted, glaring. "You can't protect her by keeping her in the dark. If they're after her, she deserves to know why."
