I'm Noah, an Omega who barely made it through school on scholarships and part-time jobs.
To pay for my mother's dialysis, I signed a three-year scent-stabilization contract with William Harrington, the heir to an old-money dynasty. During his ruts, my pheromones were the only thing that could keep him under control.
For three years, I stayed by his side—and for three years, I loved him in silence.
Then, on the same day I discovered I was pregnant, William's childhood sweetheart, Callum, sent me their engagement invitation.
William was finally getting better. He no longer needed me, and when I asked about renewing our contract, he coldly reminded me that what we had had always been nothing more than a transaction.
So I hid my pregnancy and walked away from the Harrington estate.
I never made it past the gates.
I was abducted, and my captors forced William to choose between Callum and me. Over the phone, without a moment's hesitation, he said Callum's name.
Seconds later, I was thrown into the freezing ocean.
Everyone believed I was dead.
But when William discovered that the engagement invitation had been forged—and that the real enemy had been hiding inside his own estate all along—the Alpha who had never admitted he loved me finally lost control.
To find me, he drove a blade through his own scent gland and risked everything he had as the Harrington heir.
