Chapter 1

The day before the Marking ceremony, I got the wedding photos from the photographer. But the bride wasn't me.

Furious, I rushed to the bridal boutique to confront Alpha Liam. The moment I pushed open the door, I saw Liam's female childhood friend wearing my wedding dress.

When I demanded an explanation, Liam calmly sat down and blamed me instead.

"What are you throwing a tantrum about now? Ava was just curious and wanted to try it on. It's not like she can damage it by wearing it."

"Ava is my best friend. It's just a dress. Is it really worth getting this angry over? I'll just give her this wedding dress to use for photos."

He wanted to give my wedding dress to another woman!

Bullshit. I picked up the wine glass and splashed it in his face.

He thought that I, a human, wouldn't dare provoke a powerful alpha.

But what he didn't know was that my stepbrother is the alpha of Moonclaw Pack. He's powerful, handsome, and extremely possessive.

And he's had a crush on me for a long time.
