CHOSEN BY ALPHA
Twenty-two-year-old Nora Ash has spent her entire life being invisible. As the weakest omega in the Silver Creek Pack, she has no wolf, no rank, and no future ,or so everyone believes. When she finds her mate, Beta Damon Cole, in bed with her own cousin on the night of the Moon Ceremony, Nora does the only thing she can think of: she runs.
But the broken road she flees down leads her straight into the arms of the one man she was never supposed to meet.
Cole Vance is the isolated Alpha of the Black Ridge Pack.He is cold, feared, and is hiding a secret that could shake the entire werewolf world. He does not want a mate and he does not need one. But the moment the shaking, silver-eyed girl stumbles in, bleeding onto his territory and his wolf roars MINE, every wall he has built for years crumbles like ash.
Now Damon wants her back and her pack wants her to return. Also a dark enemy lurking in the shadows wants her dead.
Because Nora Ash is not the weak omega everyone thought she was. She is something far more dangerous and Cole Vance will burn every pack to the ground before he lets anyone touch what is his.
The real question is when the truth rises, who will survive it?
CHOSEN BY THE ALPHA is a slow-burn, second-chance werewolf romance filled with betrayal, revenge, hidden powers, and a love so fierce it rewrites destiny.

Chapter: Chapter 5POV: NORA ASHThirty-one days.That was how long it took for Creston to start feeling like mine.Not home ,I was careful with that word now, just the same way you were careful with a bruise. Mae's diner smelled different at 5 AM than at 5 PM ,it was quieter, older, like the building was resting. The sound the sticky window made when you yanked it open, always on the third try and with your whole arm.I knew the regulars by name. Freddie, who came in at 7 am sharp every morning and ordered black coffee and said "same as yesterday" even though Mae never wrote it down and never forgot. Old Pat, who ate dinner alone every Tuesday and always left a five-dollar tip on a four-dollar order and never made eye contact. The college girl, Bria, who studied at the corner table on Thursdays and always ordered something with extra cheese and always looked like she had not slept.I liked them…everyone of them. I liked that they came in and ate and left, and that for the forty minutes they sat in the

Chapter: Chapter 4POV: NORA ASHCreston smelled like rain and burned motor oil and something sweet underneath it all ,sugar, maybe, from the bakery that sat on the corner across from the bus terminal.I stepped off the bus with forty dollars, no shoes, and a dead phone I had charged for twelve minutes at the Harlow bus station off a stranger's portable charger. The woman who lent it to me had looked at my feet and pressed a granola bar into my hand without being asked. I almost cried.Fifth and Crane was seven blocks from the terminal. I counted them, as I kept walking carefully over the wet pavement, keeping to the edges of the sidewalk where the concrete was least cold. People moved around me in thick coats and noise. Nobody looked at my bare feet. This was Creston. People had seen stranger things.The diner sat on the corner between a laundromat and a bookshop that looked like it had not opened since before I was born. The sign above the door read MAE'S in red letters, the paint slightly chipped at

Chapter: Chapter 3POV: NORA ASHI woke up to the smell of coffee…..And for three seconds, lying on that hard cabin cot with a folded blanket under my head, I forgot everything. I forgot the Moon Ceremony. I forgot Damon's hand flat against the bark. I forgot the way Sienna's fingers had curled into his shirt like she owned him. I forgot that I had run barefoot across a border in my nightclothes and fallen asleep in a stranger's cabin.Then I opened my eyes and saw the wooden ceiling, and all of it came back.I sat up slowly. My feet ached. The gauze had held through the night, and the cuts were already less angry-looking ,I had always healed fast, one of the only wolf-like things my body did without a wolf to explain it.Cole Vance stood at a small stove in the corner of the cabin. He was wearing a black shirt and the same dark trousers from the night before. His back was turned to me as he poured coffee into a single mug and he did it the way he seemed to do everything ,with no wasted movement and no

Chapter: Chapter 2POV: NORA ASHMy grandmother used to say that a wolf will always know when you are afraid."Fear smells like blood to them," she told me once, stirring her tea. "And blood smells like a meal."Standing barefoot in the dark with a wolf the size of a small car staring at me, I understood exactly what she meant.I was terrified. My legs were shaking so hard I could feel the tremors moving up into my stomach. But I did not run. Something deep in my chest ,some quiet, stubborn little thing that had survived three years of people calling me ghost-blooded ,told me that running would be the last thing I ever did.So I stood still. Arms at my sides. Chin up. Like I had any right to be on this side of the border.The black wolf watched me. Its pale eyes moved across my face, down my body, back up. It was not the look of a predator sizing up prey. It was something else. Something careful,like it was trying to figure out what I was.I had been asking myself the same question for twenty-two years.

Chapter: CHAPTER 1POV: NORA ASHThe white dress was not supposed to get dirty tonight.I had spent three months saving up for it. Sixty-two dollars from the dinner tips I stuffed into a cracked mug behind my bed. The dress was simple ,cotton, lace at the collar and a little too big on my waist because I kept forgetting to eat. But it was mine, and tonight of all nights, it had to be perfect.Tonight is the Moon Ceremony.Every wolf in the Silver Creek Pack had dressed up and gathered at the Stone Clearing to honor the full moon. Couples danced,alphas gave speeches,and real, confirmed mates pressed their palms together under the moonlight and let the bond glow gold between their fingers.Damon had promised me we would be one of those couples this year.I walked fast through the pine trees, my heels clicking on the dirt path. The music was already playing. It was of drums and strings. Laughter floating above the treetops like smoke. I was late because my cousin Sienna had borrowed my only mirror and taken
