Chapter 1

When Aria Collins rushed to the healer den after hearing that her mate Alpha Lucas Thornwood had been attacked by rival wolves and was bleeding out, she immediately donated a full liter of blood for him.

His friends urged her to go home and rest, and she reluctantly agreed. But just as she reached the doorway, anxiety gripped her heart and pulled her back.

Turning around, she witnessed the pack healer dumping all five bags of blood-her blood-straight into the garbage bin!

At that moment, thunderous laughter erupted from a nearby room, so loud it could've shattered windows.

"Your Sweet Luna, Aria Collins fell for our bullshit again!" a voice howled. "What a fucking idiot!"

Aria froze, staring through the half-open door. Among the crowd, she immediately spotted him.

He didn't have a single scratch on him!

Aria blinked hard, convinced her distress was making her hallucinate.

"Guys, let's count," drawled one guy she recognized as Tyler, Lucas's closed friend. "How many times have we screwed with her now?"

"The first time," chimed in Blake, another alpha's son from Lucas's circle, "we told her Lucas lost the silver moon pendant he was supposedly getting her. She spent the entire night searching in a blizzard. Even with a 104-degree fever, the dumb bitch wouldn't quit."

"Remember the second time?" Derek, Lucas's another friend, leaned forward eagerly. "We convinced her Lucas was in a coma after a territory fight. She spent all night at the sacred grove lighting candles and sobbing to the pack elders. Got blessed water and a moonstone. Lucas poured the water out casually and gifted the moonstone to Leila Blackwood the next day!"

"My personal favorite," smirked Josh, "was when we framed her for challenging the lycan king's
