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 woke up with a stretch, my arms reaching high above my head, as I lazily yawned.


　　As I slowly opened my eyes and sat up, a dull ache throbbed in my head.


　　Blinking, I looked around, taking in my surroundings. A hotel room.


　　Was I dreaming? I rubbed my eyes, trying to clear the mess from my mind. The ache in my head made it hard to focus, but one thing was certain — his scent lingered all around me.


　　I whispered his name as my lips trembled as I spoke it.


　　Was it real? Or was it just a dream?


　　I ran my fingers across my lips, closing my eyes for a moment.


　　I could still feel him — the feel of his kiss, his hot body on mine. It couldn't have been a dream. It felt too real.
