Having spent her life avoiding the spotlight, María Jośe never imagined she’d be the one to bring shame to her esteemed De la Vega family. With beauty as captivating as a field of lilies, she is the prized daughter of an ambitious father who cares more for his reputation than his children’s happiness. 

When Álvaro Montenegro, the arrogant heir to the Alpha title, sets his sights on her as his chosen Luna, María Jośe is desperate for a way out.

But everything changes when the Moon Goddess answers her prayer in the most unexpected way: María Jośe discovers she is an Omega—wolfless and the lowest rank in the pack. Once held in awe, she is now shunned; a source of shame to her father and a target for ridicule in the pack.

As her life turns upside down , María Jośe's hatred for the pack grows. The only solace she finds is in her growing, forbidden bond with Axel Montenegro—Álvaro’s older brother, who has long turned his back on the pack. 

These two developed  a love-hate friendship born from their shared disdain for the pack’s cruelty, which slowly evolves into a passionate
and secret romance.

But when Álvaro discovers Axel’s interest in María Jośe, jealousy ignites within him and he suddenly wants María Jośe as his own. 

Love, vengeance, and betrayal all brewed into a whirlwind of drama, desires, and deadly comebacks. Will María Jośe rise from the ashes of her former life, or will she be consumed by the power struggles of the pack she despises? Will she give in to the oldest brother who is scared of commitment or the younger one who fiercely seeks redemption?

EXCERPT:

“Axel, no. We… can’t do this!” I jolted back when he pulled up my skirt.

As if to retaliate, Axel grabbed my wrist and yanked my body to his. “We can do whatever I say we can do, María José.”

“I’m your brother’s reject. Do you even hear yourself right now? He didn’t want me, Axel. What does that make me to you?”

“I don’t care about Álvaro’s foolishness. It's his loss for losing a woman like you.”

“Okay, I must confess. I'm not worried about him either. It's Rosa… you're getting engaged to my sister in a month!”

 “Let me remind you, María José—I don’t give a fuck about that either.”

No matter how hard I jerked, Axel wasn’t letting me go. And part of me so, so foolishly didn’t want him to.

Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by his Brother

The night air was cool on my skin as I stepped out of the house. The estate was quiet, moonlight beaming down and the hum of crickets providing a ground stage to my movements.

I rolled my shoulders, relishing the sensation of control over my body once more. No more pretending. No more sitting still while fools ran their mouths around me.

I was free again, and my first order of business? Ernesto darling.

The guard's quarters were on the far side of the estate, tucked away behind the main house and near the stables.

It was a modest structure of stone walls, a flat roof, and a single door that was never locked because these men were too arrogant to think they needed security. After all, they were the security.
