Bound Mate to the Formidable Alpha
Framed and betrayed by her mate, shamed by her Pack, and abused by her own family, Anora’s life takes a painful turn. She’s traded to replace another as the betrothed wife to the formidable Alpha King, Alpha Dane of Blackburn—a man with a dreadful reputation. Forced under a false identity, Anora is bound to a stranger every other Alpha fears. To be his bride, a bargaining chip in an arranged, loveless marriage, Anora is warned by Dane of the cold consequences of their union.
Alpha Dane, inhumanely handsome yet cold-hearted, wants neither marriage nor affection. Yet, by duty, he’s bound as Alpha to a political marriage for power and an heir. He gives her a chance to call it off, but trapped in an impossible situation by her ex-mate, Alpha Liam’s blackmail (with her mother’s life hanging in the balance), Anora has no choice but to live the lie, even if it means sacrificing her happiness forever.
But in the forced proximity between two opposite souls, what happens when a desperate beauty clashes with a heart of stone? When affection, a forbidden attribute, begins to burn? What happens when Alpha Dane finds the truth about his bride’s true identity and the lies she’s tricked him into believing? In the end, does Anora’s story explode in her face? Can love, a bond, be born out of deception, or is their destined bond doomed to crumble?

Chapter: Chapter 5.Anora’s POVAlpha Dane’s deep voice rumbled like thunder in a distant thunderstorm, sucking the very air from my lungs. His imposing image, dwarfing Alpha Liam who was well over six feet, burned into my mind from that brief, terrifying encounter. His hazel eyes blazed like a furnace banked but never extinguished, and his curly, very dark hair covered his temples, concealing even his ears. Like a sculpture fashioned by mythical gods, his body build is carved with hard muscles, his rigid cheekbones sat high with pride, a mask of formidable power.Alpha Dane carries his charms; a darkness follows his aura. His eyes are dead of emotions. Sheer horror coils inside me as I watch Alpha Liam tremble in his presence, making my breath shallow and my heart hammer against my ribs like a talking drum. Alpha Dane is inhumanely handsome, reeking of raw masculinity. There is no hint of weakness, no flicker of soft emotion in him. He carries himself with terrifying pride, an aura of absolute command t

Chapter: Chapter 4.Dane’s POVMy gaze swept over the meeting hall from my seat at the head table, registering every familiar, displeased, and grumpy face of the Elders. Their jaws were all clenched, and their eyes observed each other, looking for who would first dare to repeat the same old topic of five years. The Elder Council of Blackburn Pack were constant demanders who plagued themselves with century-old traditions, acting as enactors of these customs no matter how old, cruel, or barbaric they might be. But today they gathered for me, their demand clear in their hard gazes."Alpha Dane," Elder Deron's voice, dry as ancient parchment, filled the council chamber. "Tonight marks five years since you’ve held the Alpha’s seat. It’s time for the next step.""Yes, Alpha," Elder Maeve, her voice a soft whisper that belied the steel in her eyes – gentle only in comparison to her grumpy twin, Deron – added, "You’ve repeatedly postponed this for five long years, but the Council stands today to demand you follo

Chapter: Chapter 3.Anora’s POVAlpha Dane? The name hits me like a physical blow. The cold Alpha and current king of Blackburn Pack—a place so dreadful, with wolves so barbaric, it is practically run by mafias.“What?” My heart drops to my stomach with heavy dread. Alpha Dane is a stone-hearted Alpha, as it’s literally what’s required of any leader if he’s to rule Blackburn Pack. “N-no... no, you can’t do this to me.”“Anora, silence.” Beta Stannis growls, a curt command to the guards to seize me. The Pack’s cheers at Beta Stannis’s declaration ring in my ears, each sound a fresh twist of the knife in my gut, but they don’t hear his whispered words.I thrash as the guards secure their grip on me again, fighting against the hands that hold me, the injustice that burns in my veins. But on a three-day empty stomach, I have no strength to fight off even a fox. My struggles meet a sickeningly sweet scent, a cloying aroma from the cloth pressed over my face that steals my breath and weakens my limbs. Wolfsban

Chapter: Chapter 2Anora’s POV“Mate.”The word hangs in the air, aimed at him: Alpha Liam, the man whose touch now makes my skin crawl, my own sister’s fiancé. It feels like a cruel, twisted joke orchestrated by the Moon Goddess herself.My breath hitches, my heart pounding against my ribs. A collective gasp from the stunned guests rips through the hall. Fear, sharp and icy, swallows me. Every eye feels like a physical weight, their silent scrutiny washing over me, again and again, making my breath tremble. Then the murmurs begin, a low hum that swiftly escalates into vicious gossip and guttural snarls. My muscles seize, locking my limbs as I freeze. My vision blurs at the edges, the vibrant colors of the hall bleeding into indistinct shapes. My heart hammers violently against my ribcage, each beat a terrified drum against the suffocating silence. I know exactly what this means. The ancient, undeniable bond roars to life at the most catastrophic moment imaginable, and a chilling understanding dawns wit

Chapter: Chapter 1.Anora’s POVHis hand clenches on my arm, a grip like a poisoned steel band. My heart hammers against my ribs, a shiver that has nothing to do with desire tracing its way down my spine.“No, Alpha, don’t,” I mutter, turning away, but Alpha Liam’s face is too close, his breath rapid and hot against my ear.Dreading my return to the Pack’s settlement, I find myself dragged back by Adriana’s imperious insistence that I serve as her “favorite maid.” This entire charade serves one purpose: her engagement ceremony—an order delivering me into the devil’s nest. For a year, Alpha Liam has made his interest in me clear, though always in secret. His hard eyes flick with lust whenever I toil past him with the other maids. How foolish I am to ever dream a lowly Omega like myself could be the Alpha’s mate—a cruel jest. The moment he lays eyes on Adriana, my stepsister, after her return from studies abroad, he casts me aside like a soiled rag, a stain on his precious hands.His threat still echoes in
