Ill-being

The mate bond had been sacred and unquestioned for generations regardless of gender. Lilly's mate bond snapped into place with a satisfying click and without a second thought, she was pulled into the best relationship of her life. Violet always thought her mate would challenge her position for Beta, and dreaded having to either put them in their place or be rejected for not submitting to another. Although both women are surprised by the bonds they receive... will they be able to figure out their pack's hierarchy before chaos ensues? Will it be enough for them to take on the world?

I got pregnant after a relationship lasting eight years, only for my fiance to call off the wedding the night before. When I arrived, I found him changing it to a celebration of his son's first month. I heard his parents speak ill of me, "That Rachel Stone really embarrassed us, getting pregnant even before you got married. I refuse to have such an immoral daughter-in-law like her." Several days later, Sean Wickham let his son's mother put on the most exquisite wedding dress to get their marriage registered. "I have a son anyway," he chuckled. "Whatever happens to the thing in your belly ain't any of my business." The illusion of happiness utterly shattered, I left without hesitation, heartbroken. I didn't want this marriage or the child anymore. I’d go back to my real home in the distant north.

When my dad was still alive, my stepmother and stepsister treated me kindly, but everything changed after he passed away. They constantly tormented me, starved me, and made me do chores. I endured it for a long time because they would lock me in the house when they left, so I couldn't escape. But one day, they forgot to lock the gate, and I didn't waste the opportunity. I ran away from home, not knowing where I was going, until I met my husband-to-be, who was strict and cold, but his child was kind. I didn't regret being with them, but everything changed when his child's mother came back, and our peaceful life started to unravel.

When Alexander Smith stands in front of me and says he's going to marry someone else, that's when I realize he's been reborn too. I remember our 20 years of love in our past life. A plane crash. And then, rebirth. "This is to save Sophia," he says. "In our past life, she was sold to a Vostmark oligarch after her father's political scandal. Not long after, she took her own life due to abuse. I can't let that tragedy happen again, so I need to get engaged to her." As he speaks, he hands me an orange prescription bottle. "If you take this, you'll forget me for a little while. You won't feel the pain. It's just seven days. Once her father's scandal blows over, you'll stop the medication and your memory will return. Then I'll end the engagement and officially propose to you." I stare at the bottle, knowing it's a lie. Not the part about Sophia's suicide. The lie is about the drug. He thinks it only causes temporary memory loss. But I know better. The suppressant causes permanent damage to emotional memory. The seven-day countdown isn't the time it takes for my memories to return. It's the time it takes for my love for him to die.

The stakes are higher than ever as Damien faces a choice that could lead to salvation or plunge him deeper into the shadows he has fought to escape.
