[COMPLETED]


He rejected me in front of them all. But if I’m going to die, I’m going to die on my own terms.

Allison's smile faltered. “You think you can trick us?”

“I’m weak to the point I can die anytime, why don’t you give me a chase?... It will be more thrilling for you.” My words were barely a whisper. “But to give you that thrill you have to give me a half an hour headstart.”

‘Yeah, I know it sounds stupid, with little to no chance of surviving. At least it was better than being mauled to death here… And I want to see if Damon would be able to watch the werewolves hunt me down. We had a deep bond even before the mate pull. I won’t accept his rejection yet… I want to drive him crazy to the point he will lose all his sanity.’

“No, you don’t have the right to negotiate with us.” One of them growled in his wolf form.

“I’m not negotiating…” I spat out blood, and my face turned pale from the amount of blood I was losing. “I’m only enforcing the law… The law of hunting as punishment for a traitor… and I happen to be one.”

Damon blinked slowly and finally answered. “Let her run.”

His voice didn’t carry any weight. It was just cold, and empty, and detached like none of this mattered, like I didn’t matter.

‘So this was his decision… after everything we have been through.’




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Ember opened her eyes, she was no longer the powerful, independent CEO she once was.

Instead, she woke up in the fragile, abused body of a lowly Omega, destined to be nothing but a breeder for the Alphas.

Her escape attempt didn’t get her far. Instead, it led her straight into the path of Damon Blackthorn, the ruthless Lycan King feared by all.

Sold like a slave by her own father, Ember becomes the property of a man with a frozen heart and a violent temper. But beneath her submissive mask lies something more: a cunning mind and a will that refuses to break.

Now, in a world ruled by dominance, power, and ancient bloodlines, Ember must do more than just survive.

She must outsmart a king.

She must earn the loyalty of the very people who scorn her.

And maybe, just maybe, she’ll bring the Alpha to his knees.

Damon grew tense, as he cuddled me back into his arms. Glaring daggers at Theo and Alaric.


"Don't cry, my love," Damon said, snapping me back to reality.


I quickly pulled away from his embrace, wiping my face with my palm, smearing the tears all over. "Wait a moment." I stopped him. "You mean to say I'm alive and I'm not dead? How is that possible? I remember dying, and as the seed, I was supposed to become the golden tree… how am I here?"


'... Except the woman I met in that dream-like state was real, and my meeting with Damon in the waterfall was also real…. But…'


Damon cupped my face. "The Moon Goddess grants us this life… it so happened we passed her test of love."


"Damon is right." Seraphina's voice echoed from behind us. "You both have been in a coma for so long. We found your bodies lying beneath the sacred tree… Damon had only woken up a month ago."
