Nineteen-year-old Alyra Stevens thought finding her mate would save her from a lifetime of pain. After years of cruelty under her stepmother’s roof, Liam, the charming heir to the Silver Moon Pack, was her light. He was her promise of freedom. Until the night she found him standing over a dead maiden’s body. To protect the man she loved, Alyra took the blame. But instead of saving her, Liam betrayed her, sending her to Red Mountain: the cursed domain of Viktor Draven, the Lycan King feared even by the gods. Viktor was the monster every child grew up hearing about: merciless, cursed, and desperate. For years, he had hunted maidens from every supernatural realm, sacrificing them one by one in hopes of resurrecting his long-dead Luna. Alyra was meant to be the last—the one who would finally end the curse. But the moment he touched her, something shifted. Her scent stirred the beast in him. Her defiance set his blood on fire. She was not a sacrifice. She was temptation itself. Now Viktor faces the cruelest choice of all: to kill the woman fate sent to destroy him… or to defy destiny and watch his kingdom burn.

My body was drenched from the intense downpour, which also made the path and steps away from the sore spot damp. There was no umbrella to offer me some shade, so I was left cold and drenched in the bad weather. I follow the road barefoot, following its path to wherever it leads. My face was chilly and damp, and there were hot tears in it. It seems as though the sky eradicates my pain and hiding from everyone just how miserable and down I am at the moment. "How long would you walk? How many times do you have to cry just to laugh again?" We're strolling along this lengthy road in the pouring rain, he said as he followed me. He stopped in front of me, causing me to tumble as well. When I stared into his azure eyes, tranquility was all I saw. His warm smile gave me hope, all the while I was staring at it. "Your life's challenges would bring you storm clouds and torrential rain, but what would come next was your hope. It doesn't imply that fate wasn't on your side or that you are finished. A sunshine that might offer your life meaning. That way, destiny won't ever work against you again!" He seems sincere, but I'm not sure If I will believe in him. He turned away from me, which made me anxious. I tried to call his name, but he never answered. Nevertheless, it appears that he will also leave just like the others, leaving far from me, just like everyone else. "Seah, be that sunshine! ...In order to discover love, you must first learn how to love yourself." He spoke and then disappeared. Where should I start and when should I stop? I'm really confused and scared.
