Claiming His Tempting Mate

Betrayal Hurts.... but what if the betrayer is your mate?   
                       
Shyla never thought her mate and her family would ever betray her like this. She thought she had everything and couldn't ask for more but she was wrong, so wrong to think those lovely smiles and enchanting words are true.  

On the day of the Throne Ceremony, Shyla found her heart shattered into pieces. She found her mate enjoying pleasures with her sister.  She thought there's still a small chance and could confront them but again she  was wrong. Accusing her for being so weak and even giving her the worst choice to accept her fate and become the substitute, at that moment she knew she  had lost everything. With the painful heart she left, she ran as far as her legs could take her. So far from the shadow of her life. But life never goes according to people's plan. 

In the midst of the woods, something happened,  seemed like a miracle that certainly changed the perspective of her life. She found the greatest truth hiding in the woods far away from her for so many years... it was like a second chance granted to her to survive the pain and betrayal. 

And .....again there's he... standing like a king with those blazing eyes.. looking at her and claiming her as his?

"Let me go…." My voice almost came out like a whisper.

His eyes traveled through my whole body making me feel naked even though it's covered with clothes. His husky breath fell on my face as he leaned his head.

"No, not now, not ever" 

And at that moment, I realized my fate was sealed with him forever.
