Kaiden knew from the moment he met Freda that she was his true mate, bound to him by fate and the will of the Moon Goddess. Yet, he couldn't help but pursue a relationship with her sister, Safiya. His heart belonged to Safiya, leaving Freda as nothing more than a convenience, a refuge for his physical needs.

To Kaiden, Freda was a secret, a hidden chapter in a story that only he controlled.

*****************************
“Can you keep this between us?” he whispered, his voice barely audible. “I can't let Safiya find out we're mates. I love her too much to lose her over this.”

Freda's eyes, shimmering with unshed tears, locked onto his. “What about me, Kaiden? I'm your mate. Doesn't that mean anything to you?”

The torment in his eyes answered her question before he could speak. The Moon Goddess had made a cruel mistake this time. Or had she?

Freda wondered if perhaps this was not a mistake but a test—a test of strength, resilience, and destiny.
