I have never been good at pretending not to notice when someone is manipulating me. When I was fourteen, a girl in my math class slipped a cheat sheet onto my desk as the teacher walked down our row. “Hold this for me,” she whispered. “Just until the test is over.” She expected me to hide it. Instead, I raised my hand. “Ms. Carter, Jenna put her cheat sheet on my desk and asked me to keep it for her.” No one at school ever asked me to “hold” something for them again. Then Lorenzo Moretti, Don of one of New York’s oldest families, found me and told me I was the daughter he’d lost twenty-five years ago. He held a dinner to introduce me to the family. Before I arrived, Sofia—the daughter they had raised—hid my place card and took the seat between my parents. “I’ve sat here for twenty-one years,” she said sweetly. “You don’t mind, do you?” Everyone expected me to smile, sit somewhere else, and prove I wasn’t a threat. I put my place card back on the table. “If this seat means nothing, why did you need mine?” Sofia cried. My mother rushed to comfort her, my three brothers followed her out, and my father lectured me about keeping the peace. It wasn’t the first time. They had missed three of my birthdays for Sofia, given her the bracelet engraved with my name, and turned the rooms promised to me into her private studio. Every broken promise came with a reasonable excuse, but every excuse ended the same way: Sofia came first, and I was expected to understand. They all believed I would tolerate anything for the Moretti name, their money, and their protection. The next morning, they abandoned me at the courthouse during my name-change appointment because Sofia claimed she couldn’t breathe. So I withdrew the petition, kept the name my adoptive mother gave me, and moved out with one suitcase. But after I left, why did every one of them regret it?

Police prodigy Mia goes undercover at the 15th Precinct, tasked by Internal Affairs Director Vance to gather evidence of corruption against Captain Victoria. From day one, Mia endures Victoria's cold hostility and harsh treatment, yet amidst the friction, she finds herself drawn to the captain's unyielding resolve and hidden sense of justice. During a dock raid, Victoria takes a bullet for Mia—an act that shatters Mia's emotional defenses. Shortly after, a gallery murder rocks the city: the victim is none other than the Oversight Director's only son. As Mia and Victoria join forces to investigate, they uncover a web of deceit—and discover that their seemingly reliable colleague, Leo, is the real mole. Leo lures them to an abandoned chemical plant, rigged with C4 explosives. In the ensuing firefight, Victoria kills him. The case appears closed, but when Mia reports to Vance, she senses something deeply wrong—he shows no surprise at any of the twists, and Leo's personnel file has been systematically erased. Mia realizes she has been a pawn all along. Vance's true plan is to rebrand Leo as a ""heroic undercover agent"" who died in the line of duty, and use Mia's own firearm as evidence to frame Victoria for murder. Torn between duty and conscience, Mia confesses her undercover identity to Victoria. Devastated and betrayed, Victoria cuts all ties and expels her from the precinct. Vance immediately places Mia under house arrest, threatening her with a forged confession and life imprisonment. Under 48 hours of relentless psychological pressure, Mia refuses to break. Meanwhile, Victoria works in secret, gathering irrefutable proof of Vance's collusion with the dark web and his fabrication of evidence. At a live televised press conference where Vance intends to pronounce Mia guilty, Victoria storms in with federal agents and exposes his crimes on air. Vance is arrested, and Mia is publicly exonerated.

I brought my three-month-old pup, Nico, to my mate's pack for the Moon Gathering. The Blackwood pack lived deep in the northern pines, hidden from human eyes. Margaret Bailey was the Luna of the Blackwood pack, mated to the aging Alpha who rarely left his den. Her word was law in the longhouse. While my pup was sleeping, my niece, Raven Blackwood, and her friends carried him to the second floor of the longhouse and threw him out the window. My baby died right in front of me. I lost my mind. I shifted and tried to carry him to the pack healer, but it was already too late. He was gone before we ever made it there. Because my niece was still a minor under pack law, she barely faced any consequences. The Council ordered her family to pay eight hundred thousand dollars in blood money, but my sister-in-law, Seraphine Stone, howled and screamed, accusing me of trying to destroy their bloodline. I cried until I felt like my heart had been clawed out. All I wanted was justice. But my mate, Damien Blackwood, and the Luna, Margaret Bailey, only snarled at me. "Raven is just a pup too! Are you really going to destroy her future just because your son died?" I never got my revenge. In the end, grief and hatred hollowed me out. That winter, I died of a broken heart. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day of the Moon Gathering. This time, I immediately called my birth pack and asked them to take my son away. But even then, my niece still threw a baby from the upstairs window.

My mother-in-law and I were traveling together. We'd just checked into the Solenne Hotel in Rivera City and decided to hit the pool. Then this woman—dressed like money and attitude—pinched her nose like we stank. "This is a luxury hotel. How did you people even get in? Sneak in just for the pool? Ugh, I need a test after this." Buzzkill. I snapped, "It's a hotel pool. Guests swim. If that's a problem, go build your own." Her face twisted. "Excuse me? Do you even know who I am? My husband owns this place. We always stay in the top suite. So get out. You reek of broke. You're contaminating the water." Georgina and I traded a look. Ice cold. This was her son's hotel. My husband's. Since when did he come with a second wife?

On the night before our engagement party, my fiancé's childhood sweetheart sped through the venue grounds in a luxury car while heartbroken, hit an elderly man, and fled the scene. Ethan immediately postponed the party and took the panicked Mia overseas to help her relax. Before leaving, he transferred five hundred thousand dollars to me. "Five hundred thousand should be enough to buy your father's life. As long as you don't cause trouble for Mia, we'll continue with the celebration after I return." Confused, I looked at my father beside me.
