He rejected me in front of everyone I knew. Then the Alpha King marked me instead.
I’d waited three years for Dravek to close our bond. Instead, he dissolved it publicly, permanently, in front of two hundred wolves on a Blood Moon night. I walked out of that fire circle alone, unaffiliated, and completely humiliated.
I didn’t walk out alone.
Kaedryn Valcair – Alpha King of the Bloodthorn Dominion, sovereign of forty-three packs stepped from the shadows and pressed his mark into my throat before I could breathe. No explanation. No request. Just the most irrevocable claim in wolf law, burned into my skin in front of everyone who just watched me be destroyed.
Now I’m installed in his fortress Keep with a mark I didn’t consent to and a bond that pulses every time he’s near. He says it’s protection. He says I’m safe. What he won’t tell me what I have to drag out of locked files and stolen records is what I actually am.
The last of a bloodline that can strip an Alpha King of his greatest power.
The man who owns my mark is cold, controlled, and hiding something enormous. He stood outside my door in the dark for four minutes and didn’t knock. He covered me with his coat and left before I woke. He says my name like he’s been holding it carefully.
I’m still furious. I’m still his. I’m starting to wonder if those two things can both be true.
