.The day before we were scheduled to fly to Meridianna for our wedding, Harrison Tucker, my fiancé of five years, swapped my and my parents' first-class tickets for Mandy and her parents without saying a word. He said casually, "Mandy hasn't been to Meridianna and wanted to take her parents out for vacation, but there weren't that many seats left in first class on our flight... You guys take a ship over. I've already bought you the tickets." I looked toward my fiancé's family, and surprisingly, not a single person opposed Harrison's decision. It was then that I finally gave up all hope. After they boarded the plane and departed, I canceled the wedding venue, as well as the luxury hotel and high-end services I had booked. I want to see exactly how Harrison, a customs declaration clerk making only a few thousand dollars a month, was going to accompany his "dear friend's" family to go around Meridianna without my help.

It was Thanksgiving. Bianca, the former high school queen bee, was getting married. She sent an e-invite to our private school group chat, tagging everyone. I was going to ignore it. Then, she @’d me directly: "Alessia, I know you faked your wealthy background in high school to show off. But I'm the bigger person. I'll let you come tomorrow. See what a real mafia wedding looks like." Her minions quickly chimed in. "You're too generous, Bianca! No wonder you're marrying into the inner circle of the Castiglione family. You even forgave a vain fake like Alessia!" "Alessia? At a mansion wedding? She'll just humiliate herself if she shows up." The chat was filled with trash talk, but Bianca played the saint. "Let it go, guys. It's in the past. She has nothing anyway. Let's not be hard on her." Right on cue, everyone praised her noble heart. I lay in my husband's massive, cold bed. My fingertips traced the family crest on the silk sheets. His crest. The most feared mafia Godfather in North America. I let out a cold laugh. Back then, she stole my Vitali family name. She turned me, a real mafia princess, into a pathetic wannabe. She made me a target for bullying and humiliation. I opened the e-invite. My eyes narrowed. The venue was my family's estate in the Hamptons. And the groom in the photo looked awfully familiar. Short hair, hooked nose, a scar on his chin. Wasn't that Nico? My husband Rocco's driver? A slow smirk touched my lips. A bloodthirsty glint flashed in my eyes. I grabbed the burner phone Rocco left on the pillow. I texted his private number: "Your lapdog is acting up on my turf." Then I replied in the group chat: "Sure. I'll be there.

After the war of the gods, Thrud takes on the heavy duty of ruling the Aesir. She resurrects Alviss — once turned to stone for offending Zeus — and elevates him into a god of her own clan. Grateful for everything Thrud has sacrificed, Alviss swears he will cherish her. When Thrud returns to the realm wounded, she finds Alviss being intimate with an envoy named Levia — and Levia is wearing her crown and her sacred marriage band. Alviss claims that Levia cared for him during the years he was stone, and that he has already elevated her to the rank of divine envoy. When Levia deliberately drops the band, Thrud finally reaches her breaking point and strikes her, stripping Levia of her title on the spot and banishing her from the realm of the Aesir.

As an abandoned Omega with no wolf pack backing, Aria Miller struggles to survive in the glamorous and cruel entertainment circle of Los Angeles. She finally wins the leading role in a blockbuster audition, only to be cruelly betrayed by her half-sister Lily and her fiancé Mark. They forge a false pheromone out-of-control report, frame her as a dangerous Omega, and attempt to lock her away in a supernatural supervision center to ruin her career and freedom completely. At the moment she is about to be taken away, Noah Silvercrest, the top Alpha and powerful ruler of the West Coast strongest wolf pack and entertainment empire, suddenly appears. He makes a revenge contract with Aria—he will protect her, clear her name, help her counterattack in the entertainment industry and get revenge on her enemies, while Aria acts as his fake fiancée and temporary Luna to block his ambitious stepmother’s grab for inheritance and pack power. From a fake marriage pact to glamorous charity banquets, brutal variety show battles, public opinion smears and deadly murder plots, Aria grows from a vulnerable girl into a iron-willed Luna. She fights back against frame-ups, takes down her ruthless rivals, recovers the Silvercrest empire for Noah, and gradually falls into a real forbidden love with the cold and domineering wolf CEO. Between revenge, power struggles, wolf pack rules and heartfelt affection, the contractual fake marriage eventually turns into a lifelong fate bond between an Alpha overlord and his masked bride.
