Chapter 1 New Jersey 2023.

Asher Ryan gazed out at the Manhattan skyline, his mind a million miles away. He was a successful businessman, with a thriving career and a luxurious penthouse apartment. But despite his outward success, he felt empty inside. He had given up on love after a string of failed relationships, focusing instead on his work and his high-society lifestyle. That was when he saw her - a stunning woman with piercing green eyes and long, curly brown hair. She was standing across the room at a charity gala, laughing and chatting with a group of friends.

Asher was immediately drawn to her warmth and energy. As fate would have it, they were introduced that same evening. Her name was Emily Wilson, a free-spirited artist from a small town in New Jersey. They struck up a conversation, and Asher found himself opening up to her in ways he never had with anyone before. Emily was different from the women he usually dated - she was genuine, kind, and unimpressed by his wealth and status. As they talked, Asher felt a spark of attraction he couldn't ignore. "Would you like to grab coffee with me sometime?" he asked, feeling a nervous flutter in his chest. Emily smiled, her eyes sparkling. "I'd love to." And with that, Asher Ryan's life was forever changed.

As they sipped their coffee at a quaint café in SoHo, Asher found himself sharing stories and secrets with Emily that he had never revealed to anyone before. She listened with a compassionate ear, her eyes sparkling with genuine interest. He was captivated by her laughter, her smile, and her infectious enthusiasm for life. As the hours flew by, Asher realized he had forgotten what it was like to feel this way about someone. He had forgotten what it was like to be truly seen and heard. Emily was a breath of fresh air, a ray of sunshine in his otherwise dull and predictable life. As they parted ways, Asher couldn't shake off the feeling that he had just met someone special. He couldn't stop thinking about Emily's bright smile, her quirky sense of humor, and her passion for art and music. Over the next few weeks, Asher and Emily met for coffee, walks in Central Park, and impromptu art gallery visits. With each passing day, Asher found himself falling deeper in love with her. He was smitten by her kindness, her empathy, and her unwavering optimism. But as their relationship blossomed, Asher's past began to haunt him. The memories of his failed relationships, the pain of his parents' divorce, and the fear of commitment started to resurface. He began to wonder if he was worthy of love, if he was ready to open his heart again. As he struggled with his doubts and fears, Asher realized that he had a choice to make. He could let his past define him, or he could take a chance on Emily and the possibility of a new beginning.

As Asher walked Emily home to her cozy apartment in the West Village, he felt a sense of comfort and ease that he had never experienced before. They talked about their dreams, their fears, and their passions, and Asher felt like he had found a kindred spirit. As they stood outside her apartment, Emily turned to him and said, "I had a wonderful time tonight, Asher. Would you like to come in for a nightcap?" Asher hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. But then he looked into her eyes and saw the warmth and invitation there, and he knew he couldn't resist. "Okay," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. As they entered her apartment, Asher was struck by the colorful artwork and the cozy atmosphere. Emily offered him a glass of wine, and they sat down on the couch, talking and laughing like old friends. As the night wore on, Asher found himself feeling more and more at ease. He was surprised by how much he enjoyed Emily's company, how much he appreciated her quirky sense of humor and her infectious enthusiasm. As the clock struck midnight, Asher realized that he didn't want the night to end. He didn't want to leave Emily's side, didn't want to go back to his empty penthouse apartment. "Can I stay here tonight?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper. Emily looked at him with a soft smile, and Asher knew that he was in trouble. He was falling for her, hard and fast. "Of course," she said, her voice gentle. "You can stay as long as you like." And with that, Asher knew that his life would never be the same again.

To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner.

He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him.

But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
