The Cursed Alpha King is My Second Chance Mate
The training room was still, the only sound the harsh rasp of my breathing, a reminder of the battles I fought not just with my body, but with the monster inside me.
"Kaiden," Slade’s voice rumbled in my mind, his tone a mix of authority and something softer... concern, maybe even fear. "You know what must be done."
I closed my eyes, pressing my palms against them as if I could somehow block out the memories, the guilt, the relentless weight of what I was. Slade wasn’t just my wolf; he was the part of me that refused to let me drown in my own despair. He was my anchor, my conscience, the voice that kept me from giving in to the darkness completely.
