Introduction

Katelyn is a sweet 19 year old girl whose life exists only inside the luxury of her mansion. This arrangement was done by her father to keep her safe from his foes in the Mafia. Her life takes a major turn when Don Quisito, her father's trusted friend, blackmails her to sleep with him. He threatens to expose a secret of hers that only he knew. Afraid and desperate to save her dignity, the girl fights him back in every way possible. Her attempts to get back at him always lands her in trouble; But guess who appears as her knight in shining armor all the time? Despite her hatred, she finds herself attracted to the way he cares for her when they are together. She is affected by the possessiveness of his touch and the warmth in his deep blue eyes when he looks at her. But she is not sure whether he would follow through the promises offered by his kisses. There was a good chance that she might end up being heart broken and alone, just like in the beginning.
The ruthless Don is a mysterious person who has eyes only for her. He gives her a taste of freedom that she craved for over a long time. But the man came to her life with a purpose. Even his blackmail was a means to an end. Once his duty is fulfilled, would he have to leave her or would he get a chance to make her his? There are buried secrets from the past that awaits Katelyn but the real question is, when everything is revealed, will it be too late for her to salvage the love of her life?

Chapter 1

“Why aren’t we eating……I’m hungry….” Katelyn whined, looking at her father who was swallowing the pills he had to take before dinner. “We are waiting for someone sweetheart, he’ll be here any minute now” her father replied, after drinking water and clearing his throat.

“I would have eaten in my room…...if you had told me earlier you know” kate said grumpily as she stared at her food.

Kate loved and appreciated her father for the little time he kept aside for spending with her because of his busy schedule. She was her father’s whole world and he did everything to fill the gap of her deceased mother. Kate used to argue with him frequently, but ever since he developed a heart condition, she has been very cautious not to speak anything that might upset him. She hated eating along with his other friends from the mafia but the love for her father never let her deny him.

“Actually, you might remember him; you have seen him a few times before. It will be good to rekindle the old friendship” her father suggested.

Kate could suddenly think of many of her friends from mafia who were the same age as her.

“Is it Luther?....No wait….it should be Sam…-”

“No its DON QUISITO” her father’s reply cut her off, completely silencing her. She would have definitely fallen down if she wasn’t sitting. His name echoed in her mind again and again, causing her face to go pale.

“Are you alright?” her father asked, concerned at her quick change of emotions. “I’m fine…you should have…given me a heads up…or…something…” Kate mumbled, while sipping water so she could compose herself.

Don Quisito was her father’s most trusted partner and has even saved his father’s life once. But there was a secret only Quisito and Kate knew and if at all her father comes to know about it, she was as good as dead.

“He should have been here by now....oh wait…THERE HE IS” her father spoke with excitement, making Kate look up to meet the last person she wanted to see on Earth.

Quisito entered like a king, with a pregnant woman by his side. The moment they reached the table, he pulled out a chair for the woman.

“It’s a pleasure to have you over; please sit” her father gestured.

“Thank you, it’s a great to see you too Winston” Quisito greeted her father back as he took a seat exactly opposite to her, with her father at the foot of the table, between them.

“Pleased to meet you too....Kate” Quisito spoke in a casual tone. “Um....nice to meet you... sir” she gave a polite nod. She could practically feel her heart pumping wildly in her chest, making her feel light headed.

“How is your heart ?” Quisito enquired Winston, who replied in a subtle manner about his degrading health and the worry of his only daughter’s future. Eventually they navigated into other topics and in between the conversation Kate learned that the woman’s name was Lena and that she was 9 months pregnant.

Kate was trying hard to act casual but sweat kept on forming on her forehead, which she kept on wiping at equal intervals. The hunger she felt minutes ago had magically disappeared and all she wanted to do was to leave the atmosphere. She couldn’t even breathe properly while she was in the same room as Quisito.

“Kate.....I see you haven’t touched..your..food” Quisito enquired, at the same time touching Kate’s foot under the table with his shoe, making her jump lightly in her spot.

“what’s... wrong ?” Lena asked, unaware of Quisito’s act even though she sat next to him.

Kate was trembling inside but she managed to keep a neutral tone “No...nothing. I think I’m not feeling well. I’ll have my food upstairs....in my room” Kate looked at her father, who nodded, giving her permission to leave the table.

Kate stood up and walked away as the maids carried the food behind her, not even once glancing at Quisito, who was watching her every move like a hawk.

I woke up three years into a marriage I barely remembered—pregnant with twins that weren't my husband's.

Those words should have destroyed me, but the truth was worse: I'd been used as a broodmare by the man who swore to love me, set up in a hotel room with a stranger because My husband Alexander Cross couldn't father children himself, and now I carried the secret babies of Damon Lester—the most powerful and dangerous Alpha in San Loris—while my own family replaced me with the daughter they'd always wanted. But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.

Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?

Charlotte Pierce is used to surviving in motion. New towns, new schools, the same old house on the edge of nowhere, and the same rule that keeps her standing. Keep her twin brother, Charlie safe. Keep his hockey dream alive. Keep her own needs quiet. She works too much, sleeps too little, and saves the one thing that still feels like hers for the middle of the night, when she can lace up her worn skates and carve freedom into dangerous frozen ice. Charlotte and Charlie shifted once, years ago, and never understood what it meant. They had no pack, no guidance and no protection. Just two twins clinging to each other and pretending the voice in their heads was stress, imagination, or loneliness. Then they move to Wellington.
Blake Atlas scents his mate the moment Charlotte arrives. The bond hits hard and unmistakable, but Charlotte doesn’t recognise it. She doesn’t know why her chest keeps pulling toward the one boy she absolutely cannot afford to want. Blake is Charlie’s new hockey captain. Charlie’s chance at making something good. Charlie makes it clear; his sister is off-limits and Blake tries to do the right thing, but secrets don’t stay buried forever. Rogues prowl the edges of town. The ice cracks. The bond tightens.
