I paced along the stone path of the private rose garden, the morning sun warming the back of my neck. I had been waiting here for nearly twenty minutes, taking deep breaths and practicing the exact smoldering look I was going to give Nyx the moment she walked around the hedge.

She was supposed to be easy. Women like her were desperate for validation. They wanted a prince. They wanted a savior. And I was going to be everything she ever dreamed of.

    DravenI paced along the stone path of the private rose garden, the morning sun warming the back of my neck. I had been waiting here for nearly twenty minutes, taking deep breaths and practicing the exact smoldering look I was going to give Nyx the moment she walked around the hedge.She was supposed to be easy. Women like her were desperate for validation. They wanted a prince. They wanted a savior. And I was going to be everything she ever dreamed of.Footsteps crunched on the gravel behind me.I turned around, a smooth, dazzling smile slipping onto my lips—only to freeze when I saw Lilac walking toward me alone."Where is she?" I asked, my warm expression instantly dropping into a frown. I looked past her shoulder at the empty archway. "Why didn't you bring her?"Lilac let out a sigh, crossing her arms over her chest as she stopped in front of me. "She isn't coming, Draven. She refused.""Refused?" I repeated, my voice rising sharply as disbelief washed over me. "What do you mean s

  • Reborn, I Choose his Uncle, the Alpha King    Chapter 6: Averting the Second Trap

    NyxLucien.The name echoed in my head over and over again, each repetition sending a fresh shiver down my spine.My fated mate.I pressed my back against the locked door of my guest room, my hand still resting over my belly where that undeniable pull continued to hum softly. In my past life, I had spent an entire year believing that Draven was the one meant for me. I had forced myself to believe that the mild, lukewarm feeling between us was what a mate bond was supposed to be. But now I knew the truth. Draven had never been my mate. He had just been an opportunist who used a drugged night and a forced claim to tie me to him.This feeling in my chest right now... this electric pull toward Lucien... this was what a real bond felt like.A thought struck me like a bolt of lightning, so clear and obvious that it made my breath catch.If Lucien was my fated mate, then marrying him would give me the highest authority in the entire realm. The Luna Queen.In my past life, Draven and Lilac

    NyxThe moment our lips touched, spark ran straight through my veins. It was a feeling I could not understand at all like two missing puzzle pieces suddenly snapping perfectly into place.For a second, Lucien went rigid. Then, with a low breath, he kissed me back.And that made everything feel so much worse. It wasn't a gentle or casual touch; it was consuming and overwhelming, dragging me into a whirlwind of heat and confusion that scared me to my core.Suddenly, he pulled away.I stumbled back, blinking in a disoriented haze as the cold air rushed between us. My cheeks burned hot. ‘What did I just do?’"I... I am so sorry," I stammered, my hands flying to my mouth as panic gripped my chest. "I didn't mean to—""Go to sleep, Nyx," Lucien interrupted sharply, his voice dropping into a flat tone. I should have felt relieved. I should have hurried back to the bed, pulled the blankets over my head, and been glad he wasn't kicking me out into the hallway. But instead, as I walked slowl

  • Reborn, I Choose his Uncle, the Alpha King    Chapter 4: The First Kiss

    Nyx I slowly turned around and standing just a few feet away from me was a man whose sheer, overpowering presence filled the entire room. He was a mountain of a man—hulking, broad-shouldered, and massively built, standing easily at six feet and four inches. Sharp, structured features defined his face, complete with a hard, chiseled jaw, jet-black hair that fell slightly over his forehead, and a pair of piercing, luminous amber eyes that burned into my soul like glowing coals. In my past life, Draven had always looked charming and youthful like a prince trying to look approachable. But Alpha King Lucien had always been a mystery to the pack. He was reclusive, locking himself away in his private wing, never attending pack parties, and skipping every single informal gathering. In my past life, I had only ever seen him once from a distance. Everyone knew he was Draven’s uncle, a fair and powerful ruler who kept the realm safe, but he was notoriously cold, silent, and alone

    Nyx She wore a sparkling white dress, eyes sparkling as she held two wine glasses. "I hope I'm not disturbing you," she said, offering me a warm smile. "I'm Lilac, Draven's younger sister and the Alpha King's niece. I’m pleased to welcome you to the Iron Fang Pack. It is such an honor to finally meet the Blessed One." My jaw clenched. Those words echoed the same as in my memories. In my past life, this exact attitude was what made me let down my guard. Before I became this blessed one I was an orphan within the Blood Moon pack. My mother died during childbirth and my father, one of the few soldiers within the pack died far before she was born. Like other orphans I was raised within the Pack's Temples under old nuns, isolated from the world. When I was discovered to have the mark, I hadn't had time to adjust before I was abruptly summoned, taken from everyone I knew. Under the pressure and praise of the heavy title, I was desperate for connection in this unfamiliar pack. T

  • Reborn, I Choose his Uncle, the Alpha King    Chapter 2: Reborn: A Year Earlier

    Nyx My insides churned. Even after hearing every single vile truth that spilled from Lilac’s lips, a small, foolish part of me that devoted to him for an entire year desperately hoped that it wasn't real. He had to help me. Push her away and rescue me. But he didn't. I watched, helpless as Draven walked right past me and went straight to Lilac, wrapping his arms around her waist tenderly. "Are you alright, my love?" He asked, kissing her forehead "How is our baby? Did she give you any trouble?" Disbelief and utter disgust filled me at the sight. Hearing it was one thing, but to see them, the two I'd considered siblings, my husband and my sister in law so intimate, shattered the last strands of my denial. It was true. They were together. Everything she'd said was true. "I'm fine, darling," Lilac purred, leaning into his touch and resting her hand over his. "I was just giving this little bitch a proper farewell before we put her out of her misery.” Only then did his
