Sold bride skips the groom, adopts his twins, and runs the werewolf pack.
Selena arrives at the Hale pack after her stepmother sells her for two million, only to find Alpha Caden missing on their wedding day. A lawyer hands her the mating ring with instructions to place it on her own finger. Inside the mansion, Caden's sister-in-law Vera rules through cruelty, dragging five-year-old Scarlett by the hair while her twin brother Cole suffers the same neglect. Selena refuses to tolerate the abuse. She steps between the children and danger, imposes order on the chaotic household, seizes control of the pack's finances, and effectively becomes its new leader long before the alpha returns from the west.
