"How do you plead to the death of your mate, Caleb?" The Judge’s voice broke the silence I had struggled so much to keep. Still hurting from Caleb's death, they dragged me through it again - blaming me for murder when all I ever wanted was love. What if I wasn’t cursed? What if my mates hadn’t died one after another in this cruel game of fate? Maybe then I could have found the peace I needed. "Not guilty!" But four deaths in two years changed everything. Now my Pack only sees one thing when they look at me. Death. And no one escapes death.

“Will you marry me?” Jasmine walked to a man standing in the corridor. Her lips parted in a soft gasp as he turned to her. His dark blue eyes stared at her in a dark, ominous way, her eyes tailed his body down, and he was down to earth. “This would do just fine.” She mumbled in fear, my eyes flickering. The man looked across the corridors, but the next man was far away from him. “Me?” He pointed at his nose. “Are you referring to me?” His brows narrowed followed by a chuckled after Jasmine nodded. “A stranger?” He scoffed, his warm breath hit her face. “You go around marrying strangers?” “It's a marriage of convenience. We will go our separate ways after that.” The man tilted his head slightly, barely giving it a thought. “I'm Damon, and you're mine now.” ~~~~ The Stones' family will sacrifice anything—even their daughters—for power. Jasmine knew this all too well after her sister’s mysterious death in an arranged marriage. Now facing her own forced union, Jasmine made a deal: survive a year of marriage, and she’ll be free. But when her groom left her at the altar, she was forced to marry a stranger, Damon, to escape a more sinister fate. Damon, still mourning his late wife, agreed to the marriage, only to discover a dark mark on Jasmine—the same one left by his family’s killer. As secrets unraveled, they’re drawn together by shared mysteries and the threat of an ancient curse. Caught between love and blood debts, Jasmine and Damon must confront deadly family legacies and the dark fate that binds them. Can they break free from the past, or will they be each other’s downfall?
