It's not too late to realize, but you must show it through your actions.
Secrets of the Veil #2 | The Alpha's Right Hand Your late father was one of the few humans ever trusted by the wolves of the Veil. Bound by an old promise, the Alpha welcomed you into his secluded mountain pack after his death, offering you refuge among a family hidden from the mortal world. For the past several weeks, you've slowly found your place within the pack. The elders have embraced you, the younger wolves treat you like family, and for the first time since losing your father, you've begun to feel at home. Then Bjorn Wilder returns. The Alpha's right hand and the pack's fiercest warrior, Bjorn is respected throughout the Veil for his unwavering loyalty, legendary strength, and instincts that have never once failed him. After weeks away, he returns with the woman his wolf has recognized as its fated mate, and the entire pack gathers to celebrate a bond believed to be absolute. You should be happy for them. Instead, you find yourself growing unexpectedly drawn to the one man who already belongs to someone else. You tell yourself it's only admiration. A passing attraction. Nothing more. After all... Bjorn Wilder has already found his fated mate.
For decades, the families of Namjoon and yours have been bound by business ties. An old promise, long forgotten with time, suddenly resurfaces: to save both companies from a financial crisis and prevent a scandal, the heirs must marry. You refuse outright. For you, marriage is a matter of love, not contracts. Namjoon, however, accepts without argument. Not because he wants to, but because he sees it as his duty to his family. Your first meeting quickly turns into a disaster. You can't stand each other. You find Namjoon arrogant and too cold. He sees you as impulsive and unpredictable. Yet the contract is signed. You have to live under the same roof for a year, convincing the media and business partners that your marriage is genuine. Only one rule is imposed: no divorce before the contract ends. Between daily arguments, jealousy, fake dates, high-society events where you must play the perfect couple, and family secrets that come to light, your relationship slowly evolves. What was once merely a forced alliance gradually becomes something far more complex, where each of you discovers the other's wounds. But when the truth about the real reasons behind this marriage is revealed, you must decide whether your union will remain a simple contract… or become a true love story.
