Claire Howard has been secretly dating Alexander Carter, the older brother of her best friend Megan, for four years. She always believed they kept their relationship private because Alexander was worried about how it might affect his sister. But when Megan excitedly tells her that “my brother finally has a girlfriend,” Claire discovers the devastating truth: the woman Alexander truly loves is Victoria, Claire’s own maternal half-sister. Even worse, after going through Alexander’s phone, Claire learns that she was never more than a substitute. Alexander originally approached her as part of a plan to get revenge on Victoria, and he even kept intimate photos of Claire without her consent. Claire decides to end the relationship and accepts a company transfer to Seattle. Before she can leave, however, Victoria publicly displays Claire’s private photos at their mother’s birthday party. Claire reports the incident to the police and prepares to pursue legal action, but her mother pressures her to settle. Alexander goes even further, using the Carter family’s medical assistance fund—which has long helped cover Claire’s father’s treatment—as leverage against her. Forced to compromise, Claire finally gives up on Alexander completely and leaves San Francisco alone. After Claire is gone, Alexander gradually discovers that Victoria has been lying to him all along. The child she claimed was his is not actually his, and the private-photo scandal was secretly orchestrated by her as well. But no matter how deeply he regrets what he did, he can no longer win Claire back. Meanwhile, Julian Bennett, one of Claire’s high school classmates whom she has not seen in years, reenters her life. Unlike Alexander, who always tried to control her, Julian consistently respects Claire’s choices and stays by her side when she needs someone most. Before Claire’s father can finally receive a long-awaited transplant, he suddenly dies of a heart attack. His death changes Claire completely. She no longer

I was the second princess of the Phoenix Court. And I fell in love with a lowly black serpent. In my past life, just to be with him, I purposely picked that black serpent during the Sacred Bonding ceremony when we each chose our companion beasts. After that, we spent every night together. I didn't care what the whole clan thought. I was determined to marry him. But on our wedding day, that same serpent I'd given my heart to drove an arrow straight through me, killing me while I was three months pregnant. As I lay dying, I heard him hiss bitterly in my ear, "If it weren't for you, I'd have been with Seraphine by now. You should've died a long time ago." That's when I finally got it. All he cared about was power. And he'd been in love with my older sister all along—the sister who was next in line for the Phoenix throne. When I opened my eyes again, we were back at that same moment—the Sacred Bonding ceremony. Before everyone, he dropped to his knees and confessed he loved my sister. He begged not to be bound to me. The whole clan looked at me with pity. But I only smiled and pointed to a small white serpent resting quietly off to the side. That black serpent thought clinging to my sister would make him powerful. What he didn't realize was that only the one I chose would become the true heir to the Phoenix Court.

The Northern Pack had one unbreakable rule: the Alpha heir could never bond with a human girl. Despite that, Alpha Kieran Wolfe still formed a mate bond with me. To be with me, he openly defied the Elders' Council. He endured 99 lashes and was forced to kneel at the altar for three days and nights. Even as blood soaked through his shirt, he smiled at me and said, "Elise, don't be afraid. I only want you." Eventually, the Elders' Council finally relented and agreed to let Kieran leave with me. However, there was one condition: he had to leave a pure-blood heir behind for the Pack. From that moment on, the phrase I heard most from Kieran was "wait". The first time, Kieran asked me to wait while he got another she-wolf to carry his pup. He slept with Cecelia Donati 33 times until she was carrying his pup. The second time, he told me to wait again because the first pup was a female, and the Elders wanted a male. So, Kieran slept with Cecelia 99 more times until she was carrying his pup again. Just when I thought our ordeal was finally over, their daughter, Tyra Wolfe, accidentally ate wolfsbane at her Meet the Pup Party. Everyone was convinced I had poisoned her. When they threw me into the freezing cold storage room, Kieran stood at the doorway with bloodshot eyes. "I told you to wait..." His gaze was ice-cold and cutting. "You know what wolfsbane means to our kind. Why would you hurt my pup?" The words "my pup" hit me like a knife to the heart. My fingernails dug deep into my palms as the pain tore through me. When the storage room door opened again, I loosened my bloodied hands. This time, I was not going to wait anymore.
