Ayda‘Wake up, Ayda. You need to wake up.’I hear Asena, but she sounds so far away. I’m cold and still aching all over. It’s like I’m back in my own personal hell again, only this time Asena is here with me.‘Ayda, wake up. We need to move. It’s not safe here.’‘Where’s here?’ I ask, trying to forc

“My mate died ten years ago. I had forgotten….” he takes another deep breath of my scent. So, his first mate was a fated mate. Then for him, this is a gift. For me, I’m not sure what this is. I’m not sure I want to be mated to another Alpha who will betray our mate bond and cast me aside.“I want yo
