Astrid, a young woman with unparalleled strength and determination, lived a life of solitude, hiding her true nature as a werewolf. Unlike her peers, Astrid's transformation was delayed, sparking concern and suspicion within her pack. Her uniqueness made her an outcast, forcing her to rely solely on her wit and resilience.
By chance one week, the Alpha King visited the Crescent Pack, where Astrid grew up and lived, Astrid encountered Durian, the enigmatic Alpha King. His piercing gaze and commanding presence left her breathless. Unbeknownst to Astrid, Durian was an immortal, the most powerful alpha of the century, with secrets and scars etched on his ancient soul.
As their paths crossed, an inexplicable connection sparked between them, hinting at a deeper bond. Astrid's latent werewolf senses stirred, recognizing Durian as her mate. However, Durian, rejected her thinking she was a fragile nobody.
Astrid's determination and inner strength drove her to prove herself, to showcase her worth to Durian and the world. As she embarked on a journey of self-discovery, her powers began to manifest, revealing a depth of magic and might that rivaled the Alpha King himself.
Meanwhile, Durian grappled with his own demons, haunted by the weight of his immortality and the secrets he kept hidden. His rejection of Astrid stemmed from a fear of vulnerability, a fear of losing control. Yet, he couldn't shake the feeling that Astrid was the missing piece to his eternal existence.
As fate entwined their paths once more, Astrid and Durian found themselves at the forefront of a brewing storm. Ancient forces threatened to destroy their world, and only together could they harness the power to save it. Would Durian recognize Astrid's true strength and embrace their destined bond, or would his fear and pride tear them apart forever?
"Y-your H-highness? I-i'm sorry b-but t-there m-must b-be a-a m-mistake..."
A loud growl sounded through the whole ballroom causing me to start shaking and a whimper to escape my lips. This caused the King to stop growling.
He pulled me to his chest and yelled out to the whole ballroom.
"MINE!"
