我沒意識到的是,我們的相遇從來不是偶然。每一個微笑、每一個動作、每一個看似真誠的瞬間,其實都是他精心策劃的一部分,目的是為了報復我的父親。

隨著他精心設計的計劃逐漸展開,他對我的意外感情讓他的任務變得複雜起來。原本是幾十年的仇恨,開始轉變成我們從未預料到的東西。
現在,我們陷入了困境:在家族忠誠和真實情感之間,我們必須做出決定——復仇真的值得犧牲我們從未預料到的未來嗎?

Chapter 1

在醫院的加護病房裡。

一位虛弱的中年男子安靜地躺在病床上,旁邊的監視器發出微弱的嗶嗶聲,提醒著他的生命仍然懸於一線。

「上帝,如果你真的能聽到我的祈禱,請讓我的父親活過來。他現在是我唯一的希望。」Olivia低聲祈禱,蒼白的臉貼在玻璃上,凝視著她的父親Ryder Smith。

突然,她聽到熟悉的腳步聲靠近。轉過身,她看到William Brown手拿檢查報告,臉上帶著深深的憂慮,向她走來。

Olivia有一種不祥的預感。她急忙走向William,焦急地問道:「發生什麼事了?我父親的病情惡化了嗎?」

William搖了搖頭,表情嚴肅地看著她。「Olivia,你父親的病情暫時穩定。但你真的需要開始擔心自己的健康。」

Olivia從他手中接過檢查報告,瞥了一眼。突然,眼前一黑,她感覺自己快要崩潰。幸好,William及時接住了她。

報告揭示了殘酷的事實:Olivia患上了胃癌,癌細胞已經開始擴散。

「我沒事。」她堅持道,阻止了正要扶她的William。她緊握椅子的邊緣,慢慢從地上站起來,心中的不公平感油然而生。

William注視著Olivia蒼白的臉,心中充滿憂慮。「你真的需要馬上住院。我會盡全力幫助你,說實話,你的生存機會還是很大的。」

他隱瞞了一些更嚴峻的現實,希望能給Olivia一絲希望。在他看來,10%的機會和15%的機會並沒有太大區別。

但令他驚訝的是,Olivia搖了搖頭,堅決拒絕了他的治療計劃。「謝謝你的關心,William,但我不打算接受任何治療。」

她從椅子上站起來,準備離開。

「即使你不在乎自己,也要為你的父親著想。你真的希望等他醒來時,由我來告訴他這個壞消息嗎?」William的聲音帶著一絲責備,希望能說服Olivia重新考慮治療。

Olivia沒想到William會這麼說。她抬頭看著William,眼中充滿懇求。

「請不要告訴我的家人我的病情。你知道我父親的情況。我不想讓他們再為我擔心。」

面對Olivia的請求,William沉默了一會兒,只能點頭。

「我知道這對你來說很難接受,但我想給你一些時間來考慮。在此期間,我會先為你安排治療計劃。」

William的語氣非常真誠和嚴肅。

William和Olivia畢業於同一所大學,都學習醫學。William是Olivia的學長,他們曾在同一位教授手下工作,所以彼此有些認識。

Olivia知道William是真心關心她,而且他在某些方面很固執,所以她沒有拒絕他的好意。

「謝謝你,William。我現在要回家了。」

Olivia向William表示感謝,然後轉身離開醫院。

William看著Olivia憔悴的身影,心中感到深深的悲傷。

Olivia曾經是大學裡最耀眼的存在,在醫學上甚至比他這個天才還要出色。

但不知什麼原因,她不得不提前離開學校。

走出醫院,Olivia茫然地看著周圍的道路,不知道該去哪裡。她拿出手機,猶豫了一會兒,最終撥通了她丈夫的電話。

Daniel Wilson 和 Ava Davis 正在醫院為他們的孩子做健康檢查。

「Wilson先生,您的孩子非常健康。」

醫生將診斷單交給 Daniel。Daniel 看了一眼診斷單,露出了笑容。看著兩個熟睡中的嬰兒,他忍不住伸手輕輕撥弄他們的鼻子。嬰兒們在睡夢中感到癢癢的,不滿地哼哼著,扭動著身體。Daniel 的笑容更深了。

突然,Daniel 口袋裡的手機響了。他拿出手機,瞥了一眼來電顯示,笑容瞬間消失。

「我去外面接個電話。」

Daniel 低聲對 Ava 說,然後轉身走進了醫院的走廊。

Daniel 沒有注意到 Ava 看著他背影時眼中的嫉妒和憤怒。她已經猜到是誰打電話給 Daniel 了。

『我是 Daniel 最愛的人,為什麼他卻娶了 Olivia?那個賤女人什麼時候才會死?』Ava 在心裡惡毒地詛咒著 Olivia。

在走廊裡,Daniel 接起了電話。還沒等 Olivia 開口,他就說:「你應該知道我現在在做什麼。你毀了我唯一的好心情。」

Olivia 沉默了很久,才終於開口:「我不在乎你在做什麼。你不是一直想要離婚嗎?我已經簽了離婚協議。」

Daniel 愣住了。他一直在不斷逼迫 Olivia 離婚,好讓他可以娶 Ava,但 Olivia 一直拒絕。現在她突然同意了,Daniel 有點驚訝。更重要的是,他並沒有感到想像中的高興。

握著電話,Olivia 的心也在顫抖,回想起那些難以忍受的記憶。

幾年前,Olivia 和 Ava 一起發生了意外。不幸的是,兩個女人當時都懷孕了。真正讓 Olivia 感到背叛的是,她的丈夫 Daniel 沒有選擇先救她,而是選擇了救 Ava。

兩個女人都被送到了醫院,並且都早產了。

命運的不公在那一刻降臨。

Olivia 的孩子死了,而 Ava 生下了一對雙胞胎。

「沒有人知道我做出這個決定需要多大的勇氣。」Olivia 在電話中笑了,語氣中充滿了諷刺。

「你現在在哪裡?」Daniel 問道,感覺到 Olivia 的話中有些異樣。

「我在家。如果你不相信,可以來看看。」Olivia 的語氣聽起來有些懶散,這讓 Daniel 感到一陣怒火,因為他覺得自己沒有受到尊重。

「好,等我,我馬上到。」

Daniel 眯起眼睛,憤怒地掛斷了電話。對 Ava 說了一句話後,他迅速離開了醫院。

『看來我也該回去了,不然 Daniel 發現我不在家會抓狂的,』Olivia 想到這裡,撅了撅嘴。隨後,她跳上一輛計程車,趕回家。

壁爐裡的火燒得很旺,給房子帶來了一些溫暖,但 Olivia 卻裹著毯子,蜷縮在沙發上。

毯子下是一個瘦削的身影,她的臉被頭髮遮住,似乎顯露出她的顴骨輪廓。

『這個女人怎麼看起來比以前更瘦了?』Daniel 想著,然後將目光從 Olivia 身上轉到桌子上,那裡放著簽好的離婚協議。

Daniel 拿起離婚協議,瞥了一眼。內容和他之前說的一樣,但多了一項要求:Daniel 必須支付一千萬美元的贍養費。

當 Daniel 看到最後一項關於贍養費的要求時,他氣得大笑,抓起桌上的杯子,狠狠地摔在地上。

破碎的玻璃聲驚醒了 Olivia,她從睡夢中醒來。

「我還在想你為什麼願意離婚,原來是為了錢?」Daniel 冷笑著看著從沙發上坐起來的 Olivia。

He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known.

One Night. One Mistake. One Lifetime of Consequences.

I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.

My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.

But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.

In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.

"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.

"Who the fuck is Jason?"

My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.

I ran away for my life!

But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!

They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.

Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”

There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.
