Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North
A smug smile appeared on her step sister's lips when she finally revealed she was actually pregnant with her mate's child. Her father's futile attempt to apologize, for ignoring her all this time, because he had his own reasons and asked her to understand. A plea of forgiveness from her mate as he begged her not to reject him, claiming it was just a stupid mistake that he shouldn't have made. And to top it off, a cursed alpha from the north, to whom her step sister was actually promised, is here to collect his debt, so she has to take her place as the sacrifice now. Darn!
ZANDER PLAYED A LONG GAME
"I found the same scent from one of the knight's belongings," Darius reported. He had been asked by Dawn to check on the scent that attracted the monster and he found it.

The seven of them were inside Zander's tent, discussing about this revelation.
"I am. I smelled it once in the first attack. I recognized it when I encountered it again."
Dawn then told them about her conversation with Lyra and the connection with the west people, who tried to topple down Zander's reign.
But, when Dawn mentioned Jason's name, aside from Zaya, they didn't seem to be surprised.
"You don't look surprised," Dawn noted.
"We have suspected Jason for long," Zenith said. "In fact, we have gotten in touch with gamma Alex."
