Unlike Ivory’s pure blooded gamma family, she was different since birth, from her eyes lacking irises to her hair being multicolored, to lacking a wolf, she’s been labeled an outcast her entire life. Miraculously, she found her mate in the pack’s alpha prince, who accepted her and kissed the ground she walked on. However, she never expected that he’d select her twin sister as his mate and future Luna at the crystal ball. Worst, she was accused of a crime she didn’t commit and locked up unfairly.
Like she was yet to suffer enough, her cruel mate decided to give her to Alpha king Auden, in exchange for a deal. Alpha king Auden of the north wasn’t an ordinary alpha, popularly known as the soul eater, every wolf quaked at the mention of his name, and past maidens who’ve been given to him in exchange for deals are all rumored dead, making Ivory believe her life was doomed at this point.
But little did she know that the monster she believed would be the end of her life, might just be the one who was destined for her.
~~ • ~~
Auden’s life couldn’t be more different from what it’s perceived. After losing the little he once cared about, he’s been emotionless ever since. Stuck with a curse he knows nothing about, he’s supposed to find his fated mate before said curse could be broken. But after losing hope of never finding her, he’s long since accepted his fate to succumb to the curse, but before that, he’ll carry out one last goal: avenge his losses.
Ivory was only a means to an end, a chess in his cheese-board for him to control and later dispose of. But when his goals start blurring with raw passion he never saw coming, when he couldn’t differentiate between hatred and desire any longer, when he couldn't bear the mere thought of losing her to all the forces suddenly wanting her dead after she awakened powers none has ever seen before… he finds himself stuck in a tricky loop.
To claim her or to let her drown?
