{MATURE — The female lead, Elara, is a plus-size lady. This isn't a book about her losing weight or going on a weight-loss journey. This is a book where she embraces her size and loves herself after everything.} 


BILLIONAIRE/WEREWOLF 

I was born a maid in the pack,  unwanted, unloved, and unseen. They said I was the daughter of a servant and that I should be grateful to even breathe the same air as elites. But what no one knew was that I wasn’t who they thought I was. I was stolen from my destiny, stripped of my name, and buried in a life that was never mine.

When I finished school, I was given a job at Blueberries Pack Company. It was already falling apart, but I worked day and night to keep it alive. Still, nothing I did mattered. The Alpha’s precious daughter stole my ideas, my recognition, and even the man I thought I loved. I was used to silence, to being unseen,  until he appeared.

Darlon. The Alpha King. A name spoken with fear and awe. They said he was old, heartless, and cruel. I didn’t know him, and I never imagined our paths would cross. But when the Alpha and his Luna grew desperate to save their company, they forced me to marry him in their daughter’s place. 

I walked down that aisle expecting the worst…But what awaited me on the other side was nothing I could have ever imagined.

I didn’t know it then, but the man I had married wasn’t a stranger at all… He was my fated mate

And through him, I began to uncover the truth about my past, my bloodline, and the power that had been sleeping inside me all along.

I felt the hospital walls shrink behind me as I stepped out, the sunlight hitting my face like it was welcoming me back to life. After a month trapped in that sterile room, I could finally breathe again, really breathe. Darlon was at my side, steady as always, his hand gripping mine, his eyes scanning me like he couldn't believe I was really here. David and Janae walked just behind us, smiles bright but careful, almost afraid to disturb the fragile calm that had settled over me.


I looked at them and laughed softly, a little shaky, but genuine. "I… I can't thank you enough," I said, my voice still weak but full of warmth. "You stayed. You didn't even go on your honeymoon because of me. I…." I broke off, overwhelmed by the memory. "I feel terrible."


Janae shook her head, smiling. "Elara, it's fine. You needed us. That's what friends, family… what we do."
