"Some bonds don't break... they simply unravel, too soon, too quietly."
At this time, ignorance was the rule.
Or rather—truths were buried, all in the name of legacy.
One omega girl was silenced.
Suppressed, forced to live a lie.
She didn't know she awakened a legend.
A recessive alpha born quiet...
Who changed the moment he met her scent.
But no one believed the myths.
Not about transcending.
Not about tethering beyond the rules.
And so ignorance, even unintentional, still killed.
He was tethered to her without knowing it.
She was his match in ways the world never named.
And when her heartbeat stopped—
His anguish bent time itself.
One prayed for redemption.
The other forgot what love ever meant.
This is not a love story.
This is the story before the love.
