The Sham Bride's True AlphaThe Sham Bride's True AlphaWren-in-AmberLanguage: English18+ 172.4K wordsOngoingIntroduction"Alpha Kaelen Blackwood has formally requested your hand," my father announced, his chest puffed with pride. "Interesting," I replied, ice dripping from every word. "Did he happen to mention he threw me away like trash a year ago for his chosen lover?" Before my father could force me into the bed of the arrogant ex who broke my soul, I grabbed my best friend's wrist and played my final card: "Gael and I are chosen mates. There is no need for an alliance with the Blackwood pack." I thought the white lie would buy us freedom. After all, Gael is my loyal Beta best friend—and strictly gay. Our sham union was supposed to be a bulletproof facade to protect our borders until our real mates crossed our paths. Except my father instantly called our bluff: "Your mating ceremony will take place this full moon." Now, dressed in my mother's heirloom bridal gown, I take my first step down the grand staircase toward the ceremonial altar... When an electrifying scent slices through the great hall like lightning. Crushed cedar. Smoked embers. Night-blooming jasmine. Inside my ribs, my long-dormant wolf roars with feral certainty: *MATE.* **** Freya Ironbark will do anything to keep the ruthless Alpha who rejected her from seizing her pack—even fake a lifelong union with her best friend. It was the perfect platonic plan, until hundreds of foreign dignitaries fill the ceremonial hall, and Freya realizes her true second-chance mate is standing in the crowd. He is lethal, commanding, and has no intention of letting another male place a mark on his Luna. Who is the dangerous Alpha watching her from the pews? And what happens when sham vows trigger an all-out war of dominance?WerewolfFatedRejected MateForbidden LoveAlphaHeiressPossessiveVirginTwinsR18+Heartbreak123 ChaptersOngoingMay You LikeThe Lycan King's Shattered BrideShattered Bloodlines: The Luna's DefianceClaimed in the Dark: The Alpha's Secret MateSavage Vows: The Alpha's Unbroken SurvivorUnmasked by the Alpha KingSavage Awakening: The Alpha King's Condemned MateHis Royal Obsession: The Runaway MateShattered Bond: The White Wolf's VowSold to the Pyrehowl WarlordA Canvas of Ash and SilverRead now
