Ten years secretly loving my fated mate.
Ended up engaged to his brother.
But on the wedding day… everything changed.
Kayden Blackwood—
Alpha heir, my childhood savior,
the man I loved in silence because mixed-blood girls like me don’t deserve miracles.
One moonlit night, he marked me by accident—
bond burning, breath tangled, destiny exploding between us.
And at sunrise?
He looked at me like I was nothing.
A week later, a marriage notice arrived with his name.
For a heartbeat, I thought he was choosing me…
until the groom beside me was his brother.
And when my fiancé dropped dead in front of me,
the pack called me “murderer”.
Seven years later, I walk into a masquerade gala—
new name, new face, new life.
Until a familiar heat brushes my spine.
Kayden turns, freezes, and in the next breath his hand closes around my wrist—
His wolf recognized me first.
But I’ll never let him see it—
the child waiting at home…with his silver eyes.
