Kill This Love
In the Sinclair pack, I had always been different.
Years ago, my grandfather saved the Elder’s life. To repay that debt, the Elder promised that one of his grandsons would become my mate.
In my first life, on the night of the Blood Moon, he asked me,
“Evelyn, who will you choose?”
Blushing, I pointed to the brightest star of the tribe, Andrew Sinclair. But after our wedding, he kept me at a distance.
I was confused—until one night, I opened the wrong door.
Andrew was on one knee, clutching my cousin Clara’s portrait as if it were his lifeline. His body moved in a way that made my heart twist.
My world collapsed.
He had never loved me. His heart—his desire—had always belonged to her.
Darkness swallowed me, body and soul. My husband lied to me and betrayed the oath we had sworn to the Moon Goddess. The cruel truth broke me, and sickness followed.
I died with his child inside me—alone.
But the moon gave me another chance. I woke again on that same night.
The Elder smiled down at me. Four portraits lay before him.
“Evelyn, tonight is your twenty-first rite. Who will you choose?”
“You’ve always chased Andrew,” he said kindly. “It must be him—”
“No!”
The hall fell silent.
“Grandfather… I don’t want Andrew.”
In panic, I snatched a portrait.
“I want him!”
The boy on the page wore black. His skin was pale, his lips curved in a mad, crooked smile.
William Sinclair.
The sick wolf. The one everyone mocked. But I remembered how he had tried to help me find a good doctor. He was the only one who had cared about me when I was dying.
And yes—this time, I chose him.
