The Cold Alpha’s Mate… But Why Does He Keep Calling Me ‘Mine’?

In the first life, Aurenya Virellae was nothing but a ghost in the Lycan King’s cold court. Unwanted. Unclaimed. Invisible.



She died alone, unloved by the ruthless Alpha who ruled Valerath — a king who never even looked her way.



When fate grants her a second chance, Aurenya swears she will never marry him again.



But this time, the truth claws at her heart.



For no matter what she does, Zevran Caelthorn—the feared Alpha King—dies because of her. Every possible future ends with his blood on her hands, his last breath whispering her name.



Desperate to rewrite destiny, Aurenya tries to stay away.



She tries to forget him.



But fate—and the king himself—have other plans.



Then, against all odds, she hears his thoughts:



> She’s afraid of me. I deserve it.

But I’ll still protect her. Even if it kills me.

She’s mine. Even if she runs, even if it breaks me.







Aurenya’s heart trembles.



Because the man she thought was cold and cruel... has always loved her.



And this time, loving him might be the very thing that destroys them both.
