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 move. My body felt frozen, I was shocked and still in confusion after everything Caleb had just told me.


　　It was as if I were trapped in a dream, one of those vivid nightmares where you know something isn't right, but you can't wake yourself up.


　　I wanted someone—anyone—to shake me, pinch me, drag me out of everything he had told me that was clouding my mind.


　　What Caleb said didn't sound real. It couldn't be. But it was.


　　Every word, every painful detail, was the truth, and no amount of wishing or denial could change it.


　　Sophia's hand came down gently on my shoulder, her touch grounding me. That small gesture was all it took to make me realize this wasn't a dream.


　　I hadn't even noticed I was crying until Sophia pressed a tissue into my hand. I blinked with my eyes blurry, and looked at her.


　　Then my gaze dropped to the table in front of me, where I saw pool of tears I didn't even remember shedding.
