He doesn’t believe in love, not after losing his first mate. But everything changes the moment he meets Elena. The magnetic pull between them is undeniable—their fates are entwined by an ancient and powerful mate bond.For Elena, the discovery that she's destined to be with Jackson—a man who embodies everything she's spent her life avoiding—shatters everything she thought she knew. She has no desire to become a part of the dangerous world of werewolves. But the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to resist the undeniable attraction, and soon she finds herself falling for the brooding Alpha.

The moment my eyes met his, I knew my life would never be the same. I was never the type to believe in love at first sight—let alone the idea of fate. But then I met Adrain. My boss. The man who could control my every thought with a single glance, the man who would turn my world upside down without even trying. It started with a look. One glance that sent a shock of something I couldn’t name deep into my chest. It was the kind of heat that could either burn you alive or make you feel alive for the first time. I thought I could handle it, that I could keep my emotions locked away. But when the lines between duty and desire blurred, I found myself tangled in a mess I couldn’t escape.
