Chapter 1

Elias is the Alpha of the Dubois pack, and I've had a crush on him for years.

The year we both turned eighteen, neither of us had found our mates yet, so I worked up the courage to confess my feelings to him.

But I discovered he'd been drugged with an aphrodisiac.

Without hesitation, I had sex with him to counteract the drug's effects.

Our sex was intense. During the process, he marked me, and I became his mate.

When he came to his senses, he looked at me with utter disgust.

I thought that given enough time together, he would eventually fall in love with me.

But on our wedding night, I felt a soul-tearing pain.

I realized Elias was cheating on me.

I went to find him, only to discover him having sex with my sister Vivian.

That's when I learned he'd been in love with my sister all along.

After I caught them, Elias didn't even panic.

He wrapped his arm around Vivian and burned me alive in a fire.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Elias was drugged with the aphrodisiac.

Looking at Elias with his flushed face and labored breathing, I called for Vivian.
