Arden Wilder

"He's our mate."
The world around me seemed empty at that moment. I froze. The way he walked, his posture—there was something hauntingly familiar about him.
I stood without thinking as I tried to catch up with him. The closer I got to him, the more the pull increased. It was like he was magneting me. 
And then I saw his face. I was instantly knocked out of breath.
"Nathan………"
Evelyn Miller, the next Alpha of the Nightshade Pack, has spent years believing the love of her life, Nathan, died in a war. To move forward, she agrees to an arranged marriage, accepting her duty over her heart.
But something happened one fateful day after seven years, her wolf senses something impossible—her fated mate is near. And to her shock, it's Nathan. Alive.
Yet Nathan doesn't recognize her as his mate. He's changed, hardened by betrayal and loss. Unknown to them, lies and deception tore them apart seven years ago. Now, with Evelyn bound to another and Nathan consumed by hatred, the truth is buried deep.
Can they unravel the past before it's too late? Or has fate already sealed their tragic ending?

Fated To Love Again

　　I couldn't concentrate. No matter how hard I tried to stay present, my mind kept slipping back to him.


　　I didn't care who was watching. Let them stare. Let them judge. My eyes were just glued to Nathan.


　　He was just like a magnet pulling me closely to himself no matter how I tried to look away.


　　He sat there, laughing softly, leaning in to whisper in Isabella's ear. Whispering in her ear—the way he used to whisper to me.


　　My chest even ached the most. He knew what he was doing. He had to know.


　　"Have you seen Victor?" Sophia's voice came through my troubled thoughts.


　　"What do you mean? You're meant to know. He's your fiancé."


　　I sighed, waving a hand toward Nathan, "Just look… look over there."


　　"He's been sitting there with her for an hour now," I muttered. "Laughing, whispering. He hasn't even looked my way once."
