Introduction

"SIGN IT AND GET THE HELL OUT OF MY LIFE!"
Calvin threw the divorce agreement in her face, his voice seething with fury.
Adriana Clarke Walker, a well-known heiress and the wife of the richest man in the country and CEO of the Grand Empire Corporation, Calvin Walker, had always believed in the possibility of love.
Despite knowing that Calvin didn't love her, she married him with the hope that her patience and devotion would eventually win his heart.
But all she received in return was endless pain. Their marriage became a black hole that devoured everything: her happiness, her family's honor, and her security.
In an instant, she lost everything—her family shamed, torn apart, and forced into exile.
Adriana tried to leave the past behind and build a new life, only to find that Calvin refused to let her go.
His pursuit was relentless, and he wasn't willing to set her free...

Chapter 1

Adriana sat in her office chair with her eyes closed.

She seemed to be having a nightmare. Her snow-white face was creased with frowns, and cold sweat trickled down her temples.

"No... Don't take my brother away... He's not guilty..."

"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry, it was my fault... Please forgive me..."

Adriana mumbled, her voice barely audible.

"Mom..."

Suddenly, she cried out, jerking awake. Her breathing was uneven as she opened her eyes.

'That nightmare again... No matter how much I try to run from my past, it seems the past isn't going to leave me alone!' she thought.

Adriana poured herself a glass of water when suddenly, someone knocked at the door.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Come in!" she called out.

The door to her office opened, and Mona, Adriana's assistant, walked in holding some files. Mona looked at Adriana's pale face and asked with concern, "Ma'am, are you alright? You look pale!"

Adriana took a sip of water to calm herself and replied, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just didn't sleep well last night. Why are you here?"

Mona nodded but hesitated before speaking. "Oh, yes, I've prepared all the materials against the Smith family, as you requested," she said.

Seeing Mona's hesitation, Adriana took the file from her hand and asked, "Is there something else you want to say?"

"It's…, are you sure you want to take over this case?" Mona asked, her voice uncertain.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Adriana responded, her brow furrowing.

"When I was preparing the materials for the case, I realized that the Smith family is not easy to deal with. The last lawyer who fought against them died in a car accident just before the hearing."

"Even though the police closed the case as an accident, everyone knows who was behind it."

Hearing Mona's words, Adriana smiled. "Mona, we are lawyers. Our duty is to help the innocent and fight for justice. If lawyers start refusing cases because they're afraid of criminals, where will victims like White family go?"

The reason Adriana studied law was to help people in need. That was also why, despite what happened three years ago, she hadn't given up.

"Is there anything else?" Seeing Mona still standing there, Adriana smiled and asked.

"Oh, yes! The boss asked you to come to his office. He tried calling you, but you didn't pick up!" Mona said.

Adriana glanced at her phone and saw a missed call from Aidan. She hadn't heard it ring earlier.

"Okay," Adriana nodded.

After delivering the files, Mona left the office.

Adriana put down her work and headed to Aidan's office.

Aidan Baker was one of the founders of the Justice Law Firm and also one of Adriana's seniors from law school.

Adriana knocked on the door and entered.

Aidan was making coffee, and when he saw her, he asked, "Would you like some coffee?"

Adriana walked in and nodded. "Of course!"

After she sat on the sofa, Aidan handed her the coffee and sat opposite her.

Adriana took a sip and said, "Why did you ask me to come here?"

Aidan pulled a folder from his desk and handed it to her. "We've received a big case. The other party is from Sky Group. They have some patent issues with another company. I want you to take this case."

Adriana nodded and glanced over the file. But as soon as she saw the column about liquidity damages they had to pay, Adriana's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Twenty million dollars?" she looked up at Aidan, stunned.

"Aidan, haven't you read the contract before signing it? How could you sign something that unreasonable?" she asked.

"I have seen it," Aidan replied.

"Then why did you sign it? What if the other party is planning some kind of trap for us?" she asked, still in shock.

"To be honest, I also found that amount a bit unreasonable. However, I've read all the documents, and there's nothing wrong with them. What's more, the other party is a well-known company. If we win this case, not only will we gain the litigation fees, but our reputation will rise!"

"Aidan, people say that lawyers take money and do things indiscriminately. Don't tell me you also want to be that kind of lawyer?" Adriana said.

"Adriana, don't you know me? How could I do something like that? You know I value my principles. However, I didn't find any issues with the case," he replied.

Aidan had always been a rational person, and Adriana respected him deeply. That was why she decided to work with him. He had also helped her a lot in the past, so she owed him a great deal. She thought for a moment and nodded. "Okay, I'll go over the documents."

"Very good! You read them carefully. I've already made an appointment to meet with the client at Heart Coffee Shop the day after tomorrow," Aidan said with a smile.

Adriana took the file and returned to her office.

However, as Adriana sat down at her desk and looked at the contract, she had a very bad feeling in her heart, as if something bad was about to happen.


At Heart Coffee Shop.

The appointment was set for around ten o'clock in the morning. However, Adriana arrived ten minutes early, as she preferred being punctual in her professional life.

This was one of the high-end coffee shops in New York City, very famous and exclusive. There weren't many people who could afford to come here, and those who did were all from the upper class. It was the perfect place for meetings and appointments.

She walked to a seat by the window and ordered a cup of coffee. As she settled in, she took out some papers and began reviewing them again. Suddenly, a pair of black leather shoes appeared in front of her.

Looking up, Adriana's gaze met the owner of the shoes, and in that moment, she was stunned.

It felt as though she had been struck by lightning.

The man standing before her was none other than her ex-husband, the man she had once loved with all her heart—and the man who had turned her life upside down three years ago: Calvin Walker.

After college, Lucas pursued me relentlessly.

He was the CEO of the Blackwood Group — a man whose wealth and power eclipsed ninety-nine percent of the world.

He was gentle. Romantic. Attentive. I fell for him fast.

But a year into our marriage, I began to notice something — a pattern.

Lucas's sexual appetite was intense — he wanted me almost every night. Yet every single month, he arranged a solo trip to send me away. I told myself it was his way of spoiling me.

Then a message arrived from someone called Sweet An.

Do you really know your husband?

From that day on, my life filled with shadows.

I suspected my husband of having an affair.

When Lucas and I made love, something felt wrong — his body too large, too much, like something I couldn't explain.

I heard sounds during sex — animal sounds, like something feral had crawled into bed with us.

My best friend Mia said: "There are men sick enough to let dogs fuck their wives."

The family doctor, Daisy, told me: "You could never stay by Lucas's side forever. Your background doesn't make you worthy of being his wife. Do you understand?"

I went looking for whoever had been tearing my marriage apart. I fought to win my husband back.

But the deeper I searched, the larger the secret grew — something far darker hiding beneath this supposed betrayal.

Does Lucas truly love me?

And why, out of everyone in the world, did he choose to marry me?

GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.

GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.

He thought the worst thing he had ever done was losing me.

He was wrong.

Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.

Then he met me.

What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.

So I disappeared.

I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.

Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.

But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.

Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.

Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.

It's inside his own family.

Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.

Then someone comes for the people I love.

Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.

It's about whether he can keep me alive.

Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.

Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.

Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.

Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.

Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.

We were both wrong.

Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.

They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.

Pete Leadsilver lost me once.

This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.

Taryn Rourke came to Sturgis for freedom, noise, bad decisions, and a few days away from the rules that have followed her all her life.

She did not come to find out her father had promised her to another man.

As the only daughter of Shane “Rook” Rourke, president of the Lost Coast Renegades MC, Taryn has always known club business comes first. But when Rook signs a treaty with the dangerous president of Iron Mesa, he crosses a line even she never imagined.

Safe passage through Arizona territory comes with a price.

Her.

Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.

Taryn wants no part of him, no part of the agreement, and definitely no part of a future chosen for her by two men who think a signature is enough to decide where she belongs.

Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.

At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.

Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.

One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.

But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.

It is an insult.

A betrayal.

And in the MC world, it can mean war.

Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.

Bobby has never been good at following rules.

And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.

The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.
