"Today, with the moon goddess bearing me witness and under the eyes of everyone here, I reject Alpha Carter as my mate." Suddenly, the voice of my wolf, long silenced, roared back to life: Mine. Alpha King Draven reached out to touch my face, his voice soft with surprise: "Mate." "Where the hell is that b*tch! Someone, drag her out for me!" Alpha Carter yelled, stalking toward me, eyes blazing with fury. But by the time he reached for me, his hand was caught in the iron grip of Alpha King Draven—and crushed in the strength of the Northlands' most feared ruler. "You're the Alpha King, but surely you wouldn't interfere in pack disputes between an Alpha and his pack members? This is a private matter," Carter sneered. Draven's gaze was cold, every word deliberate: "No, I won't interfere in your pack matters. But I will interfere when my mate is being threatened." Elena Reed's life was shattered ten years ago. On the day of her sixteenth birthday, she was found at the scene of her mother's murder, framed by her own cousin. Stripped of her status and cast into a life of servitude, she endured a decade of cruelty, betrayal, and humiliation—while her enemies thrived. Now, the Alpha King has come to her pack, searching for his Luna. Standing before everyone, Elena finally seizes her voice, her power, and her destiny. But the path ahead is treacherous: ancient powers stir within her, enemies lurk in every shadow, and even love brings its own dangers. Will Elena finally reclaim her fate and the mate she was destined for or will fear once again hold her captive?
