Who Wrote 'The Mirror You Left Behind' By Elena Daren?

Story description Elara grew up as the unwanted girl of her pack. Weak, bullied, and called cursed, she never believed she had a place among them. But on the night of the Choosing, everything changed. The Moon Goddess marked her as the true mate of Alpha Damien, the strongest and coldest alpha in the land. But Damien does not want her. He hates the bond, hates the idea of fate, and hates that his Luna is the girl everyone calls weak. He swears to never love her, only to keep her as a Luna for the sake of tradition. Thrown into a world of power, betrayal, and deadly trials, Elara must fight to survive. The pack whispers against her. Jealous rivals like Clara want her destroyed. Even her best friend Aria is hiding a secret she cannot see. And when Elara starts having visions of the past and future, she learns a truth more painful than rejection: her parents were murdered by Damien’s father, the former alpha. Now she must decide—will she bow and remain the weak girl they all laugh at, or will she rise and claim the strength the Moon Goddess gave her? This is a story of pain, betrayal, power, and forbidden love. One girl chosen by the Moon Goddess. One alpha who refuses to love her. One pack full of secrets. And a bond that will either break them—or set them free.

Every orphan dreams of one thing—finding a home. When my parents finally found me, I thought I was the luckiest girl alive. But the moment I stepped through their door, I saw her—a girl my age, dressed like a princess, calling them "mom" and "dad." That girl, Cassia, had been living the life that should have been mine. She was their pride and joy, while I was nothing but an outsider. In front of others, she played the perfect sister. Behind closed doors, she made sure I knew my place. I was her shadow, her punching bag. She was my tormentor—my fake sister. I thought my husband could save me from the misery of that home. He was kind, gentle—or so I believed—until he demanded I give up my unborn child, because the only baby he wanted was hers. Betrayed by the two people I trusted most, my world crumbled as I bled alone on an operating table, my life slipping away. But destiny had other plans. I was given another chance—a chance to rewrite my story. This time, I’m ready. I’ll expose Cassia for who she truly is. I’ll protect everything that was stolen from me. I’ll no longer be the weak girl in her shadow. I’ll become my own strength, and Cassia will never have power over me again.

I was the stand-in who looked most like my husband's first love. He put me through countless plastic surgeries, both major and minor ones, until I became her exact likeness. But then, she came back from the dead. All it took was her saying, "I don't like anyone looking like me," and he sent me right back to the operating table once more. I begged him, telling him that my body couldn't handle it anymore. Alas, he only looked at me with irritation. "Seeing that cheap imitation of her face just disgusts me," he sneered. "No matter how close you come, you'll never be her." In the end, I died on that operating table. Yet, he went mad, trying desperately to recall what I once looked like.

By the fourth year of her marriage, Tina Ashworth had become a punchline. She had spent 24 years revolving around Jonathan Reed, 4 of them as his wife. When he said he wanted to sponsor a child, she agreed without thinking twice. It never crossed her mind that the boy would be the son of the woman he had never gotten over. Tina kept backing down and giving in, telling herself she could win him over eventually. That belief shattered the day she stood outside a glass window, clothes rumpled and hair disheveled, watching as he leaned in to smooth the crease on another woman's sleeve. Her phone screen was cracked, but his message still showed clear as day. [I'm in a meeting. Don't bother me.] That was the moment it clicked. He wasn't heartless. His heart just wasn't hers. No one thought she would ever leave, Jonathan least of all. Not until she signed the divorce papers and walked away. The next time Jonathan saw Tina was at a major research conference. She had just received the country's top honor in robotics and stood center stage as the keynote speaker, with a striking young man at her side. Across the crowd, their eyes met, and Tina gave him a faint, unreadable smile. Jonathan lost control. He dropped to his knees, searching for the wedding ring she had thrown away. His hands shook as he slipped it back onto her finger. "You said you'd love me forever. You said you couldn't live without me…"
