I let out a broken breath and buried my face in my hands.That was exactly five years ago.It was the day of the Royal Banquet.It was the exact day I first met the Alpha King who would eventually order my death.I spent the next few hours walking around my room like a trapped animal.My mind raced trying to understand how I was breathing.The Moon Goddess actually answered my final silent prayer and sent me back.Odetta tried to calm me down while she laced up my corset.She draped me in a deep red gown that felt heavy and suffocating against my skin.I remembered wearing this exact same dress the first time around.I thought I looked beautiful and regal back then.I stared at my reflection in the gilded mirror now and barely recognized the girl looking back at me.She looked so naive and gentle.She had no idea that the man she was about to meet would slaughter her.My father knocked on the door and walked in wearing his best noble coat.Galen Asteri looked healthy and stressed inst

She bit her bottom lip and took a shaky breath."C-Callista," she stuttered out with a broken and raspy voice."Callista," I repeated her name and let the syllables roll over my tongue.It sounded perfect and right."You are shaking, Callista," I stated and reached my hand out to touch her pale cheek.I wanted to comfort her and assure her she was safe with me.She slapped my hand away before my fingers could even graze her skin.The sharp sound of her hand hitting mine echoed loudly over the music.The musicians stopped playing their instruments and the entire ballroom went dead silent.Several nobles standing nearby gasped in absolute shock and covered their mouths.No one ever dared to strike the Alpha King in public or in private.My royal guards instantly drew their broadswords and stepped forward to arrest her."Stand down!" I roared at my men and held my hand up to stop them.The guards sheathed their weapons but they glared at the girl in the red dress.I stood frozen in place

"Hey! Stop right there before I scream for the King!" I shouted from the bushes and grasped the broken iron trellis spike lying in the dirt next to me.The assassin froze with his jagged blade suspended in the air above Conrad's chest.He slowly turned his hooded head toward the dark bushes where I stood shivering in the rain.I knew he expected to see a terrified little noblewoman crying for the palace guards to save her.He let out a low and cruel chuckle that vibrated through the freezing night air."Run away back to the ballroom before I gut you too," the cultist warned me in a gravelly voice.I did not turn around and run away because I refused to let Conrad die on this gravel path again.I tightened my grip on the rusted iron spike until the rough metal bit into the soft skin of my palms.I burst out of the dark hedges and charged straight at the cloaked assassin with a loud scream.The cultist dropped his arm and stumbled backward in shock because he never expected a lady in a

The freezing rain battered my armor while I stared down at the delicate woman covered in thick mud and dark gore.I expected to find my new mate crying in the bushes or begging for my royal protection.I found a cold and calculated survivor standing over a slaughtered man instead.She looked me dead in the eyes and told me the trained assassin simply slipped on the gravel.My brain short-circuited trying to process the sheer audacity of her blatant lie."You expect me to believe a pampered noblewoman killed an armed man by accident?" I growled while crossing my arms over my chest."I expect you to help your bleeding captain instead of interrogating me in the rain," she shot back without a single ounce of fear in her voice.I ordered my men to drag her to the High Tower and lock the heavy wooden door so she could not escape.I watched her walk away with her head held high and wondered who the hell I just bound my soul to.My wolf paced back and forth inside my mind because he hated wat

"What the hell do you think you are doing in here, Mother?" Ajax roared while he stepped into the room with his broadsword drawn.The heavy mahogany doors slammed against the stone walls and shook the gilded mirrors hanging nearby.Queen Mother Rhea froze in place and slowly lowered her small silver dagger.She did not look scared of her massive son because she always believed she held the real power in the palace."I am having a private conversation with our new guest," Rhea answered with a sweet and venomous smile.Ajax gripped the hilt of his sword so tight his leather gloves creaked under the pressure."Put the weapon away and get out of this tower right now," he ordered her in a low rumble that vibrated the floorboards.Rhea scoffed and tucked the small dagger back into the hidden folds of her green velvet dress."You are making a massive mistake if you trust this little Asteri tramp," she warned him while she walked toward the exit."She staged that attack outside just to worm h
