In the werewolf kingdom of Naraina, the Alpha King is getting desperate to marry off his son after six failed engagements. He orders the weak Delta clan Sigertem to send a daughter and the abused, powerless daughter is chosen. 

Alice Sigertem is the child of a loveless marriage. After her mother died, her father brought in his lover and her own daughter. From then on, Alice’s life was reduced to that of a mere servant. After years of being treated like dirt, Alice has learned to keep her head down, hide her pain, and obey every order. So, it comes as no surprise that she is arranged to be married to Sirius Alderidge, the sickly Prince who has driven away all six of his potential wives so far. 

Afraid of being sent back to her abusive family, Alice resigns herself to her fate—and soon finds that her handsome husband-to-be is kind, but has a lot of secrets. He fakes his illness and goes out with another identity, someone powerful and terrifying. But Alice is shameless because she has a secret of her own. 

As they slowly open their hearts to each other, love may have a chance.

"Mates," he repeats to himself. "I see… Well, that is rare. Then it seems a marriage is sure to happen."

"Today, I planned to promise my support and protection to my niece only. But if you're going to marry, and since you look determined to maintain your marriage, then my promise will extend to you too, Your Highness."

"Your Grace's protection and support is an honor for us," he says, smiling politely. "But to what extent can you support us?"

Their eyes meet. He knew what that meant. What a smart young man.

"That decree by His Majesty is ridiculous. The crown is your birthright and responsibility. I will support you in earning back your crown."

That's what he wanted to hear. Sirius chuckles lightly but does not reply.

Alice bows her head. "Your Grace, we—"

Her eyes widen. It's her first time… having a relative so fond of her.
