The Monkey And The Turtle Story Plot

— Sold. Claimed. Bound to a monster. When Sena’s own family betrays her to supernatural slave traders, she thinks her nightmare can’t get worse. Then the cursed Alpha King buys her at auction—not as a servant, but as his mate. Kael Ravencroft is the beast who slaughtered his own pack in a single night of madness. Now he’s trapped Sena with an ancient moon bond, tying her life to his in the cruelest way possible: if he dies, she dies too. He claims he needs her healing magic to break his curse. She’d rather see him burn. But in his ruined kingdom, Sena discovers the horrifying truth—three hundred innocent souls died because of a betrayal that destroyed everything Kael loved. And her power might be the only thing standing between him and complete darkness. Now she faces an impossible choice: help the monster who bought her, or watch him fall to a curse that will consume them both. Some bonds are forged in darkness. Some love is born from fury. And some healers must decide if a beast is worth saving.
