Introduction

Lina Maria is a beautiful woman, born with elegant and distinctive features. There were countless of men chasing her, but she has never accepted any one of them. She will always remember the promise that her first love made to her in high school, “Wait for me, you will be the only girl that I will marry!”

Six years later, she was forced to marry the cold and ruthless billionaire president of DT Holdings, Lucas Lopez. “Since she wants to play with me, I will play with her till the end. I will make sure that she will heavily regret her decision to marry me for the rest of her life!”

Chapter 1

In Country C, New York City.

In the luxurious five star hotel suite, Lina Maria fixes her earrings as she looked at herself in the full-length mirror. Tonight, she is wearing a designer’s champagne off-shoulder gown made of silk, that accentuates her perfect figure.

Lina Maria is a beautiful woman, born with elegant and distinctive features. There were countless of men chasing her, but she has never accepted any one of them. She would always remember the promise that her first love made to her in high school, “Wait for me, you will be the only girl that I will marry!”

They promised to stay in contact when the boy had to leave the country to pursue his studies overseas. Lina Maria had never forgotten the meticulous love and care that the boy had given to her. She vowed in her heart that she would only want to marry him.

Many years have passed, she has since graduated from university and has just started her work as a fashion designer in her family’s company. However, the boy has never contacted her. She had tried searching for him, but was unable to find any information about this boy. It felt as though her high school love was just a dream.

Has he forgotten about her? Has he forgotten about the promise he made? Is he already married? Does he already have a family?

Today is the day that she is going to meet the man that her father had arranged for her to marry. She is only 23, and is in no rush to get married. However, her father Gabriel has been in a poor health condition and has been hoping for a good man to take care of his daughter when he is gone.

Lina Maria’s mother and grandparents have passed away in an accident when she was young and her father is the only family member she is left with. Gabriel has always doted on Lina Maria and has never failed to provide her with the best.

Even though her family is not the wealthiest, it is said that the Lin Family is still one of the most prestigious families in the country. The Lin Corporation has dominated the fashion industry for tens of decades, and remains as a domestically renowned company.

Lina Maria had previously rejected Gabriel’s wishes of marrying this man on multiple occasions. The reason is simple, she just wanted to wait for her first love to come back. She loves the boy with all her heart and she trust that the boy would come back and marry her.

However, she knows that her father’s health is deteriorating, and so she decided to fulfil his last wish. Gabriel also wishes for her future husband to help Lina Maria in managing the Lin Corporation since Lina Maria has no experience and interest in doing so.

“I’m sorry to break our promise. I sincerely hope that you will be able to find a girl you love.” Lina Maria said to herself with teary eyes. She walked out of her hotel room, and left towards the ballroom with a heavy and regretful heart.

Lina Maria elegantly held on to her long dress as she continuously step on the marble finishing of the grand hotel lobby. She smiled and nodded at the staffs who greeted her politely as she walked by.

As she was walking towards the grand ballroom, she saw a familiar face that flashed by. Her heart stopped at that instant. “Is that him?”

Lina Maria walked quickly in the direction that the man has left. Unfortunately, she has lost him in the crowd.

...

In the grand ballroom of Country C’s best five star hotel, only the most prestigious families and famous figures with high status gathered. It was the Wang Family’s tradition to organise a yearly charity auction.

The Wang Family is one of the richest families in the world. Their family business, DT Holdings, spans across industries - technology, health care, commercial real estate, car and automobile, banking, oil, and tourism. As such, the Wang Family naturally became the top 5 richest billionaire families in the world.

Apart from hosting the charity auction today, it was also an opportune time for the Wang Family to announce the new president of DT Holdings, Lucas Lopez.

Lucas Lopez is the only grandson of the Wang Family and has always been his family’s source of pride and joy.

Although he has a sister, Sarah, she is currently pursuing her acting career and has never been interested in taking over their family’s business.

Lucas Lopez has perfect facial features and body outline, and it is said that even the best actors cannot outshine him. His cold, swift and decisive personality is well-known in the business industry. He is also famous for only hiring men to work for him, and has no interests and patience in communicating with the opposite gender.

It is a well-known fact that this auction is an exclusive event and only the people whom the Wang Family favoured, were invited to the event. The auction showcases only the finest and rarest items in the world, and the lowest bidding starts from hundred millions of dolor.

Although Lina Maria is from a family of high status, she does not like to attend such social events and gatherings. She then decided to walk towards a quieter corner of the ballroom, away from the crowd.

While walking there, she unknowingly caught the attention of many people due to her beauty and elegance.

“Wow! Who is that girl over there? She is so pretty!”

“If only I can have half of her beauty...”

“Why haven’t I seen her before? She could easily be a famous model or actress with her looks like that!”

Lina Maria was embarrassed by the loud and excited comments from the people around her. After all, she went to the side of the ballroom to be alone. Who knows, she has attracted even more attention!

Not long after, Gabriel noticed that Lina Maria was standing alone by the side of the ballroom and signalled for her to join him.

Gabriel has been chatting happily with Granny Wang, who is Lucas Lopez’s grandmother. He can be considered a very good friend of Granny Wang since they have known each other for decades.

Granny Wang has always favoured Gabriel especially since he has once saved her life before.

When Lina Maria walked over and greeted her, Grandma Wang smiled at her dotingly and said, “Good girl, you have not met my grandson yet, have you?”

The Rejected Luna’s Rise

The Rejected Luna’s Rise

4.7k Views · Ongoing · Blessing Imafidon
They were already married for three years when Alpha Damian Zeus’s long-lost first love, Lily, returned bringing along a five-year-old pup.

Luna Ariana Volkstane slid the formal rejection request across the table. "Let's end this bond. It's better for you, me, and your first love."

He just smirked. "You want me to reject you? You think you can break our bond that easily?"

So she did. Ariana cut ties with him completely, poured herself into her career, and rose to global fame as a legendary healer, her knowledge of rare herbs, wolf anatomy, and ancient magic sought after across continents.

The powerful suitors lined up. The Alpha of an overseas empire whispered, "Ariana, hurry up and perform the severing ritual. I can't wait to claim you." A powerful pack leader vowed, "I'll be there with you the day you break the bond." A legendary wolf attorney promised, "I'll handle your rejection case with the pack council myself."

Ariana just rubbed her temples. It's not that she didn't want the split, she wanted it more than anything, it's just that the Alpha she was mated to refused to let go.

Finally, she announced, "Whoever can officially get me rejected, I'll put you at the head table of my bond-breaking celebration."

Not long after, Alpha Damian was served the official rejection request right in the middle of an emergency pack council meeting. That same afternoon, he was attacked by rogues at the gates of his own territory.

When Ariana showed up at the pack infirmary with healing herbs, she repeated calmly, "Let's sever the mate bond. It's better for you, me, and everyone else."

But the cold, untouchable Alpha pulled her into his arms, his eyes blood-red with fury. "You want me to reject you? Over my dead body."

My heat hit me in the middle of my own engagement party to a man who kills Omegas.
The air in the ballroom was suffocating, filled with the scent of expensive wine and predatory Alphas. I felt the familiar, terrifying burn start low in my stomach. My suppressants were failing. I am an Omega pretending to be a Beta, and my fiancé, Reign Montgomery, is a powerful Enigma who believes Omegas are nothing but weak whores.
I rushed to the restroom, locking myself in, praying the scent wouldn't leak. My hands shook as I dialed for help, but the door handle turned. Reign stood there. He didn't look at my face; he grabbed my wrist, pulling it to his nose, inhaling deeply. His dark, soulless eyes bore into mine. "You smell different," he whispered, his voice dangerously low. If he finds out what I really am, I’m dead.


Reign Montgomery promised himself he’d never get involved with an omega. Not romantically, not physically, not even by accident. He doesn’t trust them, doesn’t want them, and refuses to let anyone become a weakness.
Soren Fox has lived his whole life making sure no one ever learns what he truly is. An omega pretending to be a Beta, fighting in underground rings just to survive and keep his sister alive.
But one contract drags them into a dangerous partnership of lies, heat, and power, and when Soren is kidnapped, Reign realizes too late that the omega he never wanted has become the one person he can’t live without.

I caught him.

The man I was meant to marry—the rising Alpha, the pride of the Pack—thrusting into another girl like I didn't exist.

But I didn't cry. I didn't scream. I didn't even flinch.

Because the pain had carved me hollow long before he ever touched her.

He thinks I'm weak. That I'll stand by his side in two days, smile for the ceremony, and hand him my loyalty with the Alpha title.

But he's wrong.

I'm not the broken little Luna they think I am. I'm the storm they never saw coming.

The Pack worships him, but only I know the truth buried beneath his perfect lies. So I'll take everything he wants most—the throne, the title, the crown he was born to wear—and win it out from under him, in front of everyone who ever called me unworthy.

Screw the Pack. Screw the respect. Screw being tame.

I'm fury dressed in skin, madness wearing heels, and heartbreak turned into a goddamn weapon.

They wanted a loyal Luna??

Instead...

They created a monster.

And when the throne is finally mine...

The Pack won't remember the name of the Alpha who betrayed me.

They'll remember the woman who took his crown...
