His Defiant Luna and the Secret Pregnancy

I was sold by my family to be the Luna of the Sterling Pack, forced to marry a comatose Alpha to save my father's failing company.

On my wedding day, I caught my boyfriend Dangelo kissing my half-sister in the garden.

He didn't want to save me; he wanted to use me as a tool to steal my comatose husband's fortune.

To ruin their plans, I went through with the binding ceremony and claimed my place as the true Luna.

But my nightmare had just begun. I discovered I was secretly pregnant from a hazy, drunken encounter with my husband before the wedding.

Then, the impossible happened. Hayward woke up.

Instead of a miracle, his icy blue eyes glared at me with pure, undiluted revulsion.

"A week from now, on the full moon, we will have The Rejection."

The Rejection was a brutal ritual that would sever our bond, a pain so excruciating it would guarantee the death of both me and my unborn child.

I was terrified and completely trapped. Why did he hate me so much when I was his fated mate?

Desperate for money to escape, I sneaked into his private study to do freelance translation work.

But while using his computer, I accidentally unlocked a hidden drive and discovered his darkest secret.

He wasn't just a cruel Alpha. He was suffering from a genetic disease called Lycanthropy Rage Syndrome.

I wasn't just married to a tyrant; I was carrying the child of a ticking time bomb.
