"Leonardo, what you're doing in this room with my husband and me on our wedding night?" "Have you ever been with two men, Isabella?" My head snapped to Leonardo so fast I heard a crack. "What?" He sat there, looking calm and composed. "Where I come from, it's pretty normal. We share our women all the time." After my husband cheated on me with his first love, my father forced me into a new marriage. My new husband turned out to be the man I had a one-night stand with the night my world came crashing down. But Alexander was different from the man I met that night. He was grumpy, didn't smile, and I think he hates me. Then I met his father. Leonardo Hayes with soft eyes, a seductive smile, and he was far too interested in me. That night, everything changed. They said I belong to them. They say I was chosen for a reason. The fine line between right and wrong was crossed multiple times. It was overlooked at first, but then everything started going wrong. Tension starts to rise, and the truth begins to unfold. What do you think I should do when I found out that both men weren't humans? That they were something that should only exist in fairytales. And what do you think I should do when my ex-husband comes back on his knees, pleading that he wants me back?

"Faye, you need to get yourself together and accept that Alpha Timerante doesn't love you. It's the only way for you to get rid of him for good," my wolf said to me. In front of me, Timerante was holding his injured lover, blaming me for her injuries. He even demanded my blood and even my heart to save that despicable third party. How absurd! "I, Faye Martinez, reject you, Alpha Timerante Thompson, as my mate! Forever!" Upon hearing my words, Timerante seemed momentarily disbelieving, then sneered. "Faye, it is only I who rejects you. You have no right to reject me." "Is that so?" I looked at these detestable sh*t heads. Under my dominance, the mate bond between Timerante and me finally shattered. For the first time in over half a year, I felt free, as if I could finally breathe. And this time, it was Timerante's turn to look shocked. "Who... Who are you? How could our mate bond break without my permission?" "Moon Goddess, I, Faye Martinez, am willing to answer your call and become the Blood Priestess!" As I spoke, I looked at William. Flames appeared alongside my white wolf, accompanied by an even more powerful crimson light. Finally, I gazed at them and uttered indifferently. "Submit or die?"
