Introduction

Lyra never wanted a mate.
Not when she had nothing left.
Not when the only man she was given to… was the Alpha everyone feared.
Cold. Dangerous. Silent.
He didn’t want her either.
He only kept her because she was “useful.

She thought he would throw her out.
But instead, he locked her away.
Hid her from his world. From his people. From his own family.
And when they came to hurt her…
He stood and watched.
He didn’t speak for her.
He didn’t defend her.
But he didn’t let her go, either.
Now, Lyra is trapped in a place where no one wants her, and the only one who touches her
heart is the man who makes it bleed.
But maybe… just maybe…
The Alpha she feared is the only one who truly sees her.
And that is the scariest part of all.

Chapter 1

Chapter One

POV: Lyra

Everyone in the pack hated me.

They didn’t say it out loud anymore, but I saw it in their eyes — the way they looked at me like I

was dirt. Like I didn’t belong. Maybe I didn’t.

I was born with a curse tied to my name. My father had betrayed the pack during the war, and

they never forgot it. Even though he died years ago, they still punished me. For his sins. For his

choices.

I scrubbed floors while others trained. I slept in the old servants’ quarters behind the pack

house. Sometimes I wondered if the Moon Goddess had made a mistake by letting me live.

The worst part? Today was my eighteenth birthday. The day I would meet my mate. The day

every girl in the pack dreamed of — but I was terrified.

Because there was one man I prayed not to be mated to.

Alpha Ronan.

The most feared wolf in the northern lands. The one who never smiled. The one who could

silence a crowd with a look. They said he killed his own uncle for challenging him. They said he

ripped through rogues like paper.

And he hated me the most.

His hatred ran deeper than anyone else’s. He never said much to me, just sharp looks, cruel

silence, and once, a low growl that made my knees buckle.

He was powerful. Tall. Cold as winter.

So when I felt the pull… when my heart started racing and my wolf whispered Mate, I wanted to

scream.

It was him.

Ronan. The Alpha who would rather kill me than claim me.

I stood frozen in the middle of the Moon Festival, my breathing shallow. The moment our eyes

met across the crowd, everything around me disappeared. My chest ached. My legs felt weak.

I begged the goddess to be wrong.But then, his eyes darkened. I saw it, the rage, the disgust, the shock. He took slow, heavy

steps toward me. The crowd parted. No one dared to move.

My hands trembled at my sides. I wanted to run, but my body wouldn’t listen.

He stopped right in front of me. His scent hit me like a storm, dark, sharp, overpowering. My wolf whimpered inside me, drawn to him. But I… I couldn’t.

He hated me.

“You?” he said, low and dangerous. His voice cut through the air.

“You’re my mate?”

I flinched. My lips opened, but no words came out.

Then, without warning, he grabbed my waist and yanked me against him. My breath caught. His

grip was hard, almost painful. His eyes burned into mine like fire.

“You can never be my mate,” he growled through gritted teeth. “You can never get my love.”

My heart cracked right there. But I had already known. I had never dreamed of love — not for

me. All I ever wanted was to survive.

I closed my eyes, hoping he’d let go. Hoping he’d reject me in front of everyone and be done

with it.

But he didn’t.

Instead, he pulled me closer, so close I could barely breathe. His chest rose and fell against

mine.

“I won’t reject you,” he whispered, cold and bitter.

“I’ll use you.”

My eyes flew open.

“I can’t trust anyone in this pack. But you… everyone hates you. No one expects anything from

you. Maybe that makes you useful.”

My lips trembled.

“Please…”

He leaned in, so close I could feel his breath on my skin.

“Don’t talk.”

I felt dizzy. His touch burned. My body was frozen, but my heart screamed. This wasn’t a bond? it was a prison.

He looked down at me like I was nothing. Just a tool. A shameful mark on his perfect title. But

the bond wouldn’t let him walk away."From this moment on," he said to me, voice cold and sharp,"

” You do what I tell you to do. You only speak what I allowed you to.will live in my house. In my world"

My stomach twisted.

I had expected him to rejected me.

I had expected him to kick me out like garbage.

But this?

This was worse.

He didn't want me — but he wouldn't let me go either.

The crowd was quiet. No one had the gut to ask why. Because no one had the nerve to ask

Alpha Ronan anything. He ruled with fear. With power. With silence.

And now… I belonged to him.

He finally released me. I stepped back, gasping. His eyes turned me, cold and unyielding.

Then he turned away — as if I didn't even exist.

But my heart still pounded too fast. My skin still shook where he'd touched me.

And for the first time in a very long time, I was actually, really scared

"Aveline Ashkaar." Rhaedon's voice was low as his golden eyes held mine. "The moment you offered yourself to become my Luna, everything about you became mine. Your life, your obedience, your blood... including the abilities that flow through it."

He paused, his gaze never leaving mine.

"And I don't share what's mine."



I died on my son's death anniversary, betrayed by the man I'd devoted my entire life to, and the woman who stood by, smiling as I took my last breath… was my very own sister.

Dear readers, this novel is coming to an end soon. I highly recommend another fantastic story of the same genre:


I’d appreciate all your support, thank you so much!
From first crush to wedding vows, George Capulet and I had been inseparable. But in our seventh year of marriage, he began an affair with his secretary.

On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...

Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.

George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.

His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"

Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.

When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.

"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"

George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"

"I'm afraid that's impossible."

Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."

I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.
