About this story

Synopsis

[Fated/Forced Mate Bond + Forced Proximity + Only One Who Can Save Him + Hidden Royal Bloodline + Cursed With A Ticking Clock + Secret Villain Hiding In Plain Sight + Betrayal By A Trusted Insider + Escape Attempt Gone Wrong + Enemies to Allies Royal Court + Choosing Him Twice + Second Chance Choice] Zenaida Kessington has 365 days to make a monster fall in love with her or watch him disappear forever. She fell through a portal expecting to die. Instead, she landed in the lap of the most feared king in the Beast Realm, and woke something in him that hasn't stirred in a decade: a mate bond neither of them asked for. Vyrn is dying by inches, his humanity eaten alive by a curse with a deadline. The bond could save him. But it only works if she chooses him freely, and Zenaida doesn't do anything freely but escape. When the one chance to go home turns out to be a trap set by the same enemy who cursed him, Zenaida has to decide what's worse: staying bound to a man who broke his own rules to save her life, or losing him to a beast that might not remember her name. With 365 days, one impossible bond, and a king running out of time to be saved by the one woman who was never supposed to find him... except she was.
