Married in secret to the love of her life, Marie Austin knew that she had to keep her feeling inside. This marriage was arrange and she had to prove herself to be a part of the Sydney family. She was a nobody to them, while they ruled this city, she was just a low level employee in the company. Before she could be seen as Darius Sydney's wife, she had to prove herself.
Marie had always been ambitious when it came to her career, but she lacked the backing and attitude to get very far in a corporate world. Being the punching bag for your family would do that a person. She was the legitimate child of the Austin family, but was treated as the child of the mistress, while her half brother and sister got all the praise and attention.
When her mother got sick after giving birth to her, her father went out and found himself between another woman's legs. Marie was sure her mother died of heart ache more than her illness. But in the wake of her passing, Marie was left with a father who treated her like less than a servant, and a step mother who saw her as the scum of the earth.
Her half siblings were raised to hate her, she was alone in the world, and only her nanny, Patricia, ever truly cared for her, so when Marie was arranged to marry a man she never met, she was both sad and excited to be leaving the house that never felt like home to her.
Darius Sydney was a powerful man. The only reason she was made to marry him and not her sister, is the rumors that he was a cold man and also the fact that he refused to marry an illegitimate child. Everyone knew the story of the Austin family, no matter how much her father and step mother tried to change the story.
So now, here Marie stood, in a simple white dress at the court house to sign the papers with Darius. He barely glanced at her, took one look, nodded and signed. Marie was confused, but also signed her name, making her the lady of the Sydney family if only in name.

"Ahh!" She was in a moaning mess. She did not want to feel anything for this man. She hated him. His hands began to move all over her body. She gasped when he pulled down the back chain of her dress. The chain stopped at her lower waist, so when he zipped it off, her upper back and waist were exposed. "D-Don't touch m-ummm!" His fingers rolled around her bare back, and she pressed her head against the pillow. His touches were giving her goosebumps all over her body. With a deep angry voice, he whispered in her ear, "I am going to make you forget his touches, kisses, and everything. Every time you touch another man, you will only think of me." - - - Ava Adler was a nerdy omega. People bullied her because they thought she was ugly and unattractive.

"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin. My mind screamed at me to push him away-the Lycan Prince who had humiliated me again and again, but my body betrayed me, leaning into him before I could stop myself. He pressed his lips against mine, and his kiss grew more aggressive, more possessive as I felt my legs weaken. What was I doing? In a split-second, I pulled away and slapped him hard across the face. Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement. "You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate." "And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go." "Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you."
