Sweet Love 웹소설 & Protective Second Chance 스토리

A grieving widow. A guarded Alpha. And a wilderness full of impossible secrets. For a year, Kelsie Rourke has been drowning in guilt. Blamed by her late husband’s family for the tragic accident that took him, she flees the city for a secluded cabin sight unseen in the deep, mist-shrouded forests of Sterling, Oregon. She isn't looking for love; she’s just looking for a quiet place to breathe, paint, and heal alone. But her first night in the canyon brings a savage storm that crashes a tree through her window. Terrified in the dark, Kelsie isn't rescued by a human, but by a massive, pitch-black wolf with luminous amber eyes. Instead of attacking, the wild predator rests his heavy head in her lap, offering a profound comfort that keeps her from drowning in her panic. The next morning, the wolf is gone, replaced by Seth Callahan—the commanding, silver-templed man who rules the valley with a silent nod. The attraction between them is immediate and electric, yet Seth fiercely resists the pull, sending maddening mixed signals that leave Kelsie guarded and confused. Seth is fighting a civil war. Kelsie is his mate—a rare, biological second chance—but she is human, she is mourning, and he is an Alpha who has already survived a catastrophic loss. He has sworn to protect his pack by keeping his heart behind walls of stone. But secrets can’t stay hidden for long in the wild. When a walk through the woods leads Kelsie to a hidden lake, a chance encounter with two innocent children is about to shatter everything she thought she knew about the town, the man, and the black wolf who saved her life.

Elena Moore never imagined that the worst night of her life would lead her straight into the arms of a billionaire. After discovering her boyfriend's betrayal and learning that her family is about to lose everything, Elena receives an unexpected offer from Adrian Blackwood—the cold, ruthless CEO everyone fears.

Because their temporary marriage was only supposed to last six months. Their love may have to last forever.

“Tell me you don’t love me.” My fingers tightened around his collar as I pulled him closer. “Tell me you don’t want me, Dave, and I’ll leave.” His jaw clenched. His eyes darkened. But he didn’t answer. Because the mafia king who could destroy anyone without hesitation couldn’t bring himself to destroy me. I have loved Dave Monasterio for years, the man who saved me, protected me, and became my entire world. But he only sees me as the little girl he promised to protect. So I’ll remind him that I’m not a child anymore. I’ll challenge his rules. I’ll break through his walls.

For centuries, the powerful House Shadowmoon and the Lycan Crown of Valtheris maintained peace through sacred alliances. From childhood, you and Silas Ashthorne—the future Lycan King—were destined to marry, but the arrangement never mattered because you were already best friends. When your wolf awakens and reveals a fated mate, you choose destiny over duty and leave Silas behind. Three months later, everything falls apart. After discovering that your fated mate, Darian Vale, has been secretly reconnecting with the woman he never truly forgot, your heart is shattered. With nowhere else to turn, you make one call home. Instead of judgment, you find acceptance. And instead of resentment, Silas offers only four simple words: *"I'll come get you."* Returning to Ashthorne Keep awakens old memories and forgotten feelings. Surrounded by the warmth of the Ashthorne family, you slowly begin to heal while Silas quietly rebuilds the friendship neither of you ever truly lost. Yet as political unrest spreads across the kingdom and ancient enemies gather beyond Valtheris's borders, your return becomes more than a personal matter—it may determine the future of the realm itself. Meanwhile, Darian refuses to let go, convinced that a mate bond gives him a claim over your future. But as the kingdom edges toward war and secrets from the past begin to surface, you're forced to confront a question far more complicated than fate: If destiny led you away from home... why does every road seem to lead back to the king who waited? And when the truth behind an ancient prophecy emerges, you may have to choose between the bond fate gave you—or the man your heart has already chosen.

I died on my wedding day. My fiancé's hand on my back, my best friend's laugh in my ears, and then nothing. The Moon Goddess gave me one more chance. Same dress. Same date. Same monster waiting at the altar — and this time, I know exactly what he's planning to do to my family the moment I say "I do." So I say "I don't" instead. Before the chaos even settles, the doors explode open. Black armor. Silence falling over the hundreds of guests at once. And a man every Alpha in the room is terrified of, walking straight toward me like he's been waiting his whole life to collect something that was promised to him before I was even born. I thought I was choosing my own fate for the first time. I just traded one collar for another — except this one calls me his Luna, and he's not planning on ever letting go.
