Beneath the alpha's Frost

In the misty forests ruled by the Moonshade Pack, Damon was a cold, distant Alpha. Feared and respected, he had no interest in love or a mate, dismissing it as a weakness that distracted from his duties. Though old enough to marry, he refused, leaving his parents desperate to secure the pack’s lineage.

Taking matters into their own hands, they arranged for Damon to marry Lila, a gentle and kind-hearted woman who had loved him in silence for years. For Lila, the chance to be by his side was a dream, even if unreciprocated. She believed her devotion could thaw his icy heart.

But reality proved harsher than her hopes. To Damon, Lila was nothing more than a duty—a means to produce heirs and fulfill his parents' wishes. His aloofness and disdain cut deep, yet Lila endured, clinging to the belief that she could earn his love.

Over time, her quiet strength began to challenge the walls Damon had built around himself. Her patience, kindness, and determination sparked something within him, though his pride and coldness kept those feelings buried. Lila, too, started to see that love alone might not be enough to bridge the chasm between them.

As the tension between duty and desire grew, so did the question neither dared to voice: Could Damon find it in himself to embrace the warmth Lila offered, or would his unyielding nature doom them both to a life of silent suffering?

In the shadows of the forest, beneath the weight of responsibility and unspoken emotions, their fragile bond faced a test that would determine not only their future but the future of the pack itself.
