Blinding Echo

Zina gave everything—her heart, her trust, and two years of her life—to the mate who betrayed her. Pregnant and shattered, she cast him out of her life, vowing never to let him hurt her again. Years later, Zina has rebuilt herself, rising as a respected doctor in her pack. But her quiet life unravels when she discovers a hidden power within her—one that marks her as more than just an ordinary wolf. Just as she begins to embrace her new identity, Xaden, the mate who broke her, returns—begging for forgiveness and a second chance. To make matters worse, Zina finds herself fated to not one but two mates, pulling her into a dangerous web of love, deceit, and power struggles. With old wounds reopening and new threats emerging, Zina must decide whether to risk her heart again—or protect herself and the child she swore to keep safe.

[Warning: Contains Mature Content] "Beware of the tongue of a wicked woman. For it may tell a lie that would slay the world." Eighteen-Year-old rejected, wolfless and blind Zina is summoned to the capital to tell a vision for the ruthless and feared Alpha King of the North notoriously known as ‘The King Who Crowned Himself’. The result of Zina’s ‘false’ vision has the Alpha Prince and future Alpha Supreme, Daemon, banished from the capital to fight wars at the borders where only death awaits him in the hands of the famed Arising Rogues, and the even more famed Deformed. But Daemon survives fire, blood and claw, and not only does he survive, but six years later, he is back as Alpha Supreme, driven by vengeance against those who brought him down. Starting from his cunny siblings, to the eighteen-year old girl now twenty-four who spelt his destiny with just mere words, Daemon vows to leave no one unscathed. However Zina is well aware of her own treachery. Now the Theta to the same powerful werewolf house she told the dangerous lie against, and having tasted the bitter pill of betrayal from the very people she told the dangerous lie for, she is unwilling to resign to her fate just yet. But how do you melt the heart of a man that you once ruined? And how do you destroy a woman loved by all the common people, and perhaps, even the gods? Daemon will learn the hard way that not all vengeance can be taken, and not all debts can be collected. Secrets abound, the Deformed Werewolves are set to rise, and a rare chance at second mating befalls the two most unusual people. And now, one thing has become for sure—Daemon must first defeat the enemy outside, before he can truly confront her, who has become the enemy of his heart. **** Zina's back pressed against the wall as a taut body pinned her, their warmth mingling together. Four years of deadly anticipation had culminated into that very moment. His whispers caressed her ear, sending shivers that had nothing to do with the chill in the air down her spine. “Since you see visions so well, tell me Theta of my house, do you see the day you will die?” His breath ghosted over her skin, reminding her of a debt to be collected. Swallowing and maintaining a tight grip on her staff despite the body that burned against hers, she answered firmly. “I am afraid the gods haven’t shown me yet.” The man over her smiled shrewdly. His lips grazed her ear, his hot breath sending waves of sensation. “I believe in all of the names I have been called, one of them is god. So let me tell you that which you do not know… “…today is the day you will die.”

*READ BEFORE STARTING* Hey all, so right now I’m currently working on a mass release of about 30 chapters, and I’m editing the first two that are already uploaded. Just know that what u see/read is not the final product and even though there won’t be an update for a while, it’s coming. Anyways I hope you enjoy what I’ve got so far! ** Death is something we all fear. Something we all know is inevitable. If something is alive it has to die, that is the law of the world. But what about my brother? Why was he forced to die? Chronicles of Elaria. The last thing he said to me were these words. The title of a video game. What if death doesn't mean the end? What if instead of the end it’s the beginning? Each death is a new beginning. I wonder what my brother's new beginning is. For me, Death isn’t something I fear, I welcome it. After all, who doesn't want countless new beginnings each different from the last? I don't fear death, I resent it. For taking my brother or so I thought. But, What if he was in his new beginning, at this very moment? I would do anything in my power to find him. Anything. ** AN: Hey all, this is my first novel so go easy on me haha. I am open to any and all feedback, as it helps me grow as a writer. If you see any grammer mistakes or mispellings, let me know I will do my best to fix them as fast as possible. I was heavily inspired by the author Entrail_JI. Both of his works helped inspire me to write this so if you see any similarities I apologize. In Echoes of Death the main character, Damien, is thrown into the game Chronicles of Elaria. A game his brother loved and the last thing they every talked about. Damien doesn't know anything about the plot of the game or anything like that so don't expect him to. This novel can get dark as it deals a lot with death... like a lot, so if your not comfortable with that then this novel isn't for you. Serialization should come out to about 10 chapters a week? Maybe less, I am still a student and this isn't my main focus, but I still plan to put a lot of effort into this series so bear with me. Anyway thanks for checking out my novel and giving it the time of day
