The Sea Remembers Its Own Meaning

When I called her out, she actually had the nerve to say she was "redistributing wealth to help the less fortunate." I called the cops, but then she spread this wild rumor that I made her sleep with me for three years, and that she was using my luxury items to help me "atone for my sin." Then she and her boyfriend teamed up to try and have me killed. Next thing I know, I woke up and it was the exact same day she started her whole rich-girl act.

They call me the fool. The outcast. The girl unworthy of love. But today, as I serve drinks at my cousin Sofia’s wedding, I’m forced to watch her marry the one man who was never supposed to be hers—my mate. Worse, I’m carrying his child. When Sofia and her mother discover my secret, they corner me with threats, cruelty, and a deadly choice: end the pregnancy or be destroyed by their lies. Just when I think I’ve reached my breaking point, guards storm in with an order that shatters everything— I’m under arrest. Heartbroken, betrayed, and trapped in their twisted game, I realize one thing: if I don’t fight back, I’ll lose my child… and myself. But that's not all....my mate is planning to sell me off to the rogue Alpha.
