Why is it feminine?

Mieles is feminine in Spanish. It derives from Latin "mel" (neuter), and like many Latin neuter nouns, it was reassigned to the feminine gender during the evolution of Romance languages. However, "mel" did not follow the typical pattern of merging with feminine -a endings—instead, it retained its original form while acquiring feminine gender assignment, likely due to analogy with other feminine nouns or phonetic factors that made it associate with the feminine class.
