LOGINThey call me the fool. The outcast. The girl unworthy of love. But today, as I serve drinks at my cousin Sofia’s wedding, I’m forced to watch her marry the one man who was never supposed to be hers—my mate. Worse, I’m carrying his child. When Sofia and her mother discover my secret, they corner me with threats, cruelty, and a deadly choice: end the pregnancy or be destroyed by their lies. Just when I think I’ve reached my breaking point, guards storm in with an order that shatters everything— I’m under arrest. Heartbroken, betrayed, and trapped in their twisted game, I realize one thing: if I don’t fight back, I’ll lose my child… and myself. But that's not all....my mate is planning to sell me off to the rogue Alpha.
View MoreLAYLA Three years have gone by. Three years of power, pain and achievement.I still find it hard to believe how far we've come, sometimes, especially when I wake up to Adrielle's laughter reverberating down the hallway or feel Del's arms encircling me before the sun comes up. It feels unreal like waking up in a life that I was previously forbidden to have. After the truth was revealed after Kaelan and Faelan were engulfed by the very shadows they once controlled and after their own greed destroyed them, I did more than simply survive. I remembered how they had paid for their crimes, Kaelan had drunk poison, too proud to go to jail like his brother.Aurelia was never seen again, she just vanished.I never went back to the girl who had pleaded to be heard and seen. They couldn't stop me from returning like a storm. I didn't stop there either. I reshaped what they had burned, not just rebuilt it.All of the laws, customs and walls that once made me feel less than were destroyed and re
LAYLA Aurelia was standing before me. She wasn't looking arrogant or smiling wickedly at me. She simply looks tired. Of what ?She sniffed and that was when I realized that she was crying too. Was this staged or something? Another of her stupid plans? How did she find me here?Her typically bold and sharp makeup was hardly visible. She appeared to have been crying for days because of the swollen red and puffy lids on her eyes. I remained motionless.with a wet cloth in one hand and my heart pounding in my ears.Neither the queen nor rival was making an entrance. This was a completely different matter. Aurelia took one trembling breath before falling to her knees before me on Mama Dena's creaking wooden floor.“I came to say I'm sorry.” She said in a whisper.My heart beat erratically. I was silent at first. I asked the only question I could think of.“What do you want?” I said in a low voice“To tell you the truth,” She replied in a raw voice. With wet lashes and glossy eyes she g
LAYLA I couldn't remember who came to my rescue. I had fainted from the cold that night in the blizzard following Adrielle's kidnap. With my body too weak to move, I had encircled my body with my arms. Half of my body, buried by snow. In the distance, I could hear wolves howling—low foreboding cries that rose and fell and in my unconsciousness I was wondering if they had come for me too.My breath had been coming in quick frantic gasps until it stopped. Then it was just cold. Then nothing happened. I was rescued though. Someone with powerful arms carefully lifted me out of the snow moving quietly and I didn't know why they chose to help me.“You’re safe now,” someone whispered as they wrapped me softly in thick furs and used trembling hands to brush ice from my face. Their faces were hidden from me. And I felt just warmth. Only safety. I recognized the voice but I trusted it out of instinct. The first thing that hit me with the pain, a stupid headache and I was wishing I had died
DELThe room was quiet, in fact the whole pack was quiet, just the way I wanted it. The quietness meant they I was getting ready to unleash my anger I was planning something that would make my enemies cry, one for which the components had been gathered over several months. And her face appeared each time I closed my eyes. Layla. The night I sent her away her eyes. The disbelief, the suffering. She must have felt so betrayed by this. I had allowed it to happen because I was unaware at the time. But now I did. It hadn't been a sudden revelation. Drop by painful drop, the poison had slowly seeped in. A maid, too inquisitive for her own good, had come to me and I had rewarded her just as we had planned and now she was far away, safe where they wouldn't find her.I had gotten a letter which had all the evidence I needed. A former guard who disappeared after Aurelia revealed she was pregnant reappeared months later, bruised half-mad and eager to tell what he knew. I didn't initially b
LAYLA Drake thought I was still healing. Still broken. That the bite had shattered me too deep and the truth? Too heavy to handle. He bought it. Every act, every weakness I faked. He had no idea. No clue that the blood he guarded like treasure—my blood—was the key to everything.And I had remember
DEL MORINO Before the sun even reached the hills, the bells began to ring. A sharp, long clang followed by another.Alarms. Every time they rang the bell, it meant that a horrible event had happened.Death .Kidnapping or even those damn rogues.And now as if a storm had struck the pack, warriors
LAYLA.I woke up after a while to see that I was in the medical room and not my room and I was all alone and another surprise?The pain was dying slowly and not as painful as before and it was when I turned my face away from the sun that I met the best surprise ever, the one the moon goddess had pr
DEL MORINO I can't let her dieI stood with my fists clenched against the railing as the wind howled outside the open balcony. My mind was still replaying what the messenger had said. He had arrived just in time when I needed the news.“Alpha, she's alive.” And not just that, he has told me some
