How Did The Second Hokage Died

From childhood friends to star-crossed lovers, Isla and Harry's romance took a dark turn when he became the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack and made her life a living hell. To make matters worse, he found his mate, someone who was not Isla, and Isla was forced to serve under her. With the help of Harry's beta, Oliver, she escaped to the human world and found solace in his arms. But fate had other plans for her, as she discovered she had Harry’s seeds growing inside her.   Just when she thought she had escaped Harry, she found herself back in the pack, this time as the second-chance mate of the very man she had tried to run from.   With a love triangle in play, Isla is torn between her loyalty to Oliver, the man who stood by her side, and her desire for Harry, her mate.   And with Harry’s ex-mate, Lauren, determined to keep them apart, the fate of their triplets hangs in the balance.   Would they be able to overcome the obstacles in their path, or would their fate forever be sealed in darkness?

I knew there was no escaping it. My father’s sins would be my undoing. He was a wicked man, feared and hated by many, and now that he was dead, the weight of his crimes had fallen squarely on me. I didn’t even have the chance to grieve—or to breathe—before his Beta dragged me away from the south, from everything I’d ever known. I was supposed to be their Alpha. That was my birthright. But it didn’t matter. The pack had other plans for me, and being their leader wasn’t one of them. My father’s Beta delivered me to the northern Alphas, the very men who despised my father the most. And that’s when I learned the cruelest truth: they were my mates. But they didn’t want me. Warning: This is a reverse harem mild dark romance filled with intense emotions and themes that are not for the faint of heart. Read at your own risk.
