Betrayed. Poisoned. Left to die. When Khaleesi Cromwell awakens on the brink of death, she learns the sickening truth—her mate Dan and his new lover have been slowly killing her. Broken but not defeated, she shatters their bond and flees to reclaim her strength. To save her pack, Khaleesi agrees to an alliance with the enigmatic Alpha Dustfinger Aodhán. But beneath his cold gaze lies a dangerous obsession—and a dark secret that ties him to the murder of her parents. Torn between vengeance and an undeniable pull toward the monster who holds her fate, Khaleesi must decide: Will she become a pawn in his twisted game, or will she rise and seize her destiny?
Lihat lebih banyakAodhàn's pov; No one offends me and gets away with it. Not even her. The only person who had managed to get under my skin so thoroughly. I was to meet her today and I couldn't keep my smile to myself. Finally, it was time to exert the other part of my revenge. Would she recognize me? Of course not. I was the chubby kid back then who she picked on for not having parents - who she mocked repeatedly for being an orphan. How would she remember someone whose life she made miserable? And of course, being the good person I was, paying back what I was paid tenfold. I waited for the right time to make her an orphan just like me- the beginning of my revenge against her. Was I happy with it? Very much and now, I can't wait to show her exactly what it means to be bullied after she agrees to this alliance with me. Thinking back to how I murdered her parents in cold blood, and her loud scream, to say I wasn't the least bit pleased was an understatement. To hear her scream and cry

Khaleesi's Pov; All the while, even as I put on the casual clothes that had been prepared by my assistant, on my orders, I wasn’t so interested in going to the meeting I set aside. “Luna, they have been here for one hour now. Please, see them as soon as possible before the Alpha changes his mind,” Alaric reminded me while I tried to control myself. It was normal for every other person to get nervous at the thought of meeting someone for the first time with the knowledge that this said meeting was either going to a long term result or a short term one. I was hoping for the latter, even if it meant using someone else’s power for my benefits. “Remind me, Alaric. You said no one has seen his face right?” Putting the last touch to my eyebrow, I finally turned to face Alaric who looked like if he could carry me to where we were to have our first meeting, he would. “Yes, Khaleesi. This is the first time we would be seeing the Alpha’s face and you don’t need to worry about your ter

KHALEESI’S POV; Darkness slowly carried me and I willingly let it, too weak to fight against it. Shadows floated above me and I fought for my consciousness, hoping to bring myself out of whatever state this was. Forcing my eyes open, I closed them back immediately, trying to get used to the sudden brightness that almost blinded me. Why was this scene all too familiar? Like I had been here before. I forced them open again, only to see shadows swimming at the edges of my vision, their hands stretching out to me as if asking me to come. Their hands were spread out towards me, inviting me and immediately, I tried to force my eyes open. “Ah!” With a loud gasp, i sat up on the bed, my eyes flew open, my back cold with sweat and a creepy feeling crawling up my spine. The cold that slowly washed over me was none like no other and the odd scent of burning wood happened to wake my senses. Staring around me, the first thing that came in sight was a small traditional pot with a small

Khaleesi's pov; Did he take my word for it? Of course not, right? Even as I asked myself, there was a feeling of doubt I had. After all, Aodhàn only kept looking at me like he was expecting me to fulfil a promise. "What?" having had enough of his intense stare, I burst out, cold sweat pouring down my back and cussing myself as to why I even came back to the kitchen to drink water. After the brief ceremony and now living together with Aodhàn, everything finally settled in my head and now, it was looking like we did it all in a flash. "Tell me first, why are you awake? Shouldn't you be sleeping or do you need me to tire you out?" Of course, what was I expecting? For Aodhàn to not insinuate anything sexual? Who was I kidding when he looked like a walking sex god in nothing but his pants hanging low on his waist and caging me between the wall and his arms. His masculine scent was an unwanted trigger that only made me want to open my legs for him. "First, you stink
Khaleesi’s Pov; I never really understood the concept of death coming and going, taking whoever she wanted anytime she pleased. Each time I was unfortunate enough to witness the death of others, only one question kept lingering in my mind - Did they ever have a choice? Were they given an opportunity? I guess not because as I laid on the all too familiar bed, listening to the sound of machines get louder than before, it seemed to me like they weren't really given an opportunity. The ward had become colder and even my body parts seemed not to be in support of seeing me alive again. I could feel the coldness lurk around, loitering around my body and starting to create a familiarity between us. Everything Around me didn't look as colorful as they once used to and it was even difficult to hold a lie. “Beep. Beep. Beep,” was the one sound from the machine, giving the ward a bit of life compared to my fragile self with a sickly pale skin laying on the bed. With each breath I took, it...
