Chapter 44

• Zayvain's POV:
• Finding out that Raven already had a mate shattered me, but nothing compared to the blow of learning that she had mated with the Alpha King himself, Azreal Draconis. The possessive look on his face, the way he claimed her as his own—it haunted me, driving me to the brink of madness.
• Today, I woke up with a heavy heart, the weight of my unrequited longing crushing me as I struggled to make sense of it all. Despite knowing that Raven belonged to another, I couldn't shake the feeling that she was meant for me, that our souls were destined to be entwined.
