Skylar’s entire life shattered the moment she walked into her bedroom and saw her husband, Farrow, tangled in the sheets with another woman. And her heart broke even more when she found out—that woman was Farrow’s fated mate. But as days turned into weeks, Farrow began to fade away; his vibrant spirit and sharp mind were nowhere to be found and he seemed to dote on his fated mate with an obsessive devotion that bordered on madness. Driven by suspicion, Skylar uncovered a dark truth: Farrow wasn’t bound by fate at all… he was in a powerful love spell, cast by the woman he believed to be his mate. The witch had manipulated him into a toxic relationship, feeding off his strength and breaking him down. Determined to save the man she once loved, Skylar vows to help Farrow break free from the spell’s grip. But forgiveness is a different matter entirely. Even when their wolves form a chosen mate bond, the memory of his betrayal lingers like a scar on her soul. Farrow may be free from the witch’s curse, but earning Skylar’s trust again? That’s a battle he might never win.

Sudah lima tahun menikah, tiba-tiba cinta pertama suamiku mengunggah foto sertifikat rumah di instagram. Dia menulis, "Terima kasih Kak Boni sudah memindahkan kepemilikan rumah ini untukku." Aku terkejut melihat alamat di sertifikat itu adalah rumah kami, jadi aku memberikan komentar, "?" Tak lama kemudian, suamiku langsung meneleponku dengan nada marah, "Dia itu ibu tunggal, kasihan sekali. Aku hanya memindahkan kepemilikan rumah supaya anaknya bisa lebih mudah untuk daftar sekolah nantinya. Itu nggak akan mengganggu tempat tinggal kita!" "Kenapa kamu nggak punya hati nurani? Masa nggak bisa sedikit bersimpati?" Di balik telepon, terdengar suara tangisan lembut dari cinta pertamanya.

Ia memotong lidahku. Dengan kepuasan kejam, ia menggunakan ponsel aku untuk menelepon suamiku. Namun jawaban Marcell singkat dan dingin, “Apa pun itu, pemeriksaan kesehatan Emilia lebih penting! Dia butuh aku sekarang.” Penjahat itu tertawa jahat. “Nah, nah… sepertinya detektif hebat itu lebih menghargai hidup mantan cintanya daripada istri sahnya.” Beberapa jam kemudian, ketika Marcell sampai di tempat kejadian, dia ketakutan melihat kekejaman yang diterapkan pada tubuh yang telah dimutilasi. Ia marah dan menyalahkan pembunuh karena terlalu kejam terhadap wanita hamil. Namun ia tak menyadari bahwa tubuh yang dimutilasi di hadapannya adalah istrinya sendiri, aku.
