BRIDE FOR RENT IS MY FATED MATE.
When a ruthless Alpha is forced to take a wife or lose his crown, love is never part of the equation. With no fated mate and no time left, he chooses control—a contract marriage. A bride for rent. Five years. No affection. No freedom.
For her, obedience has always been the cost of survival.
Orphaned, abused, and betrayed by the man she trusted, marriage becomes just another prison, until she is dragged into a world she never knew existed. Wolves. Ancient laws. A powerful Alpha who sees her as temporary, disposable, and easy to forget.
Until fate interferes.
A single touch, a glowing mark and a bond that should not exist.
She is his mate, and he rejects it.
Convinced the Moon has made a cruel mistake, the Alpha refuses to accept a broken human woman with a painful past as his Luna. But the bond does not fade. It tightens. Grows stronger. Deadlier.
Because the council is watching.Enemies are circling. And her forgotten past is awakening.
Was she ever truly a bride for rent…
or was she always destined to be his Luna?
And when the Alpha is forced to choose between power and fate, will he claim her… or destroy them both?

Chapter: Chapter 165(Final Chapter)—Home.THIRD PERSON POV"They are staring at me," Rebecca announced.She was sitting up in the bed the following morning, all three boys arranged in a row in the bassinet that Rowan had positioned at the precise angle for observation. Aiden, Aric, and Aldric—three small faces turned vaguely toward the light, their eyes wondering.Donald was sitting in the chair beside the bed, elbows on his knees, watching them with an expression Rebecca had never seen on him before and immediately decided was her favorite thing she had ever seen on any person.Pure, unguarded wonder."They cannot actually see you yet," he said. "Not properly.""They are staring," she insisted. "Aiden is definitely staring."Donald looked at Aiden. "He might be staring," he agreed."He has your expression," she said."He has been in the world for eight hours. He does not have expressions yet.""Donald." She looked at him seriously. "He has your expression. That very serious I am thinking about something and I am not going to

Chapter: Chapter 164—The Night It Begins.THIRD PERSON POV"Donald."His eyes opened immediately. He had not been deeply asleep—some vigilant part of him was always listening for her, always attuned to the rhythms of her breathing and the movements of her body against his.His hand found hers in the darkness. "What is it?""I think it is time," she said.He sat up. She was on the edge of the bed, her hands pressed flat on her knees, her breathing slow and deliberate. "How long?" he asked."I have been awake for about an hour," she said. "I did not want to wake you until I was sure."He looked at her for a long moment. "You should have woken me the moment you felt anything.""You needed sleep.""I needed to be awake with you."She looked at him over her shoulder. Even now, even in the middle of this, the particular softness came into her face that only ever appeared when she was looking at him."You are awake now," she said.He was out of bed and already moving. He went to the door and spoke to the guard in the corridor in a

Chapter: CHAPTER 163—MAREN'S GIFTTHIRD PERSON POVThe afternoon sun came in through the windows of Rebecca's sitting room, warming the pale stone floor and turning the dust motes into floating gold. Rebecca sat in the wide armchair Donald had moved from his study three days after she mentioned, in passing, that it was the most comfortable seat in the house. It had appeared overnight without discussion. He had never mentioned moving it. She had never thanked him. Some things did not need words.Maren sat across from her, the old woman's hands folded in her lap, her eyes holding a particular light that Rebecca had learned to recognize. It was the look she got when she was about to give someone something important."I have been holding something for a long time," Maren said. "I kept telling myself I would know when the right moment came. I think this is it."She reached into the worn leather bag she had brought and withdrew a small wooden box. Plain, unadorned, the wood polished to a deep, warm glow by decades of handli

Chapter: CHAPTER 162—NAMESTHIRD PERSON POV"God is my help," he translated immediately. His eyebrows lifted slightly. "That is a weighty name for a child.""He will need it," she said. "All three of them will. They are heirs of a territory that has faced war and exile and betrayal. They are descendants of a lineage that has been hunted and broken. They will need to know that they are not alone. That something larger than themselves walks with them."Donald looked at her. "You are speaking about yourself as much as them."She was quiet for a moment. Then she said: "Yes. I am."He reached for her face, cupping her cheek with a gentleness that still surprised her after all this time. "You are not alone either, Becca. You will never be alone again."She leaned into his palm. "I know. But they will need to know it too. In their bones, in their blood and in the very shape of their names.""Azriel," he said again, tasting the word."Azriel," she confirmed.He set the paper down and turned to face her fully. "Tell me

Chapter: CHAPTER 161—NAMESTHIRD PERSON POVThe territory had surrendered to sleep hours ago. The bedroom held only the soft amber glow of a single lamp, its light pooling like honey across the pillows. Rebecca reclined against the headboard, her hands resting on the generous curve of her stomach, where three distinct lives moved in their own private rhythms. She had a cup of cooled tea that sat forgotten on the nightstand.Donald lay beside her, one arm folded behind his head, and the other resting possessively on her hip. This was the only version of him that existed in these quiet hours where he was unguarded, unhurried, and completely hers."We need to talk about names," she said.He turned his head and found her eyes. "I thought we had already discussed this.""We discussed possibilities," she corrected. "We have not yet decided.""Is there a difference with you?"She slapped his chest lightly. "Yes. Possibilities are what we talk about when we are being polite. Decisions are what we make when we are seri

Chapter: CHAPTER 159 — GROWINGTHIRD PERSON POV"You are doing it again," Donald said.Rebecca looked up from the land report she was reading. She was sitting sideways in the large chair by the window, her legs over the armrest, a cup of warm ginger tea on the table beside her. She was four months along now and the morning sickness had finally eased, replaced by a hunger that arrived at inconvenient hours and a heaviness in her body that she had decided to simply work around."Doing what?" she asked, like she didn't understand what he was saying."Working when Sable specifically said to rest in the afternoons.""I am reading," she said. "Reading is not working.""That is a land dispute report.""It is light reading," she said.He looked at her."Rebecca.""Donald." She replied, laughing.He crossed the room and took the report out of her hands. She let him, because she had learned which arguments were worth having and which ones were not. This was not one of them."One hour," he said. "No reports. No correspondence.

Chapter: Chapter 16—LET'S BEGIN!BREADoctor Jason seemed to understand what had passed through my mind.“Doctor Brea.”I looked at him.“Whatever happened on that road will be investigated later. Right now, you're not going into that theatre as the woman involved in an accident. You're going in as a neurosurgeon. The patient needs you to separate those two things.”My throat tightened slightly.I nodded.“I know.”“Can you do that?”I took a slow breath.“Yes.”“Then let's proceed.”As we reached the preparation area, I stopped again.“Before we enter, I need the equipment checked.”Doctor Jason gestured toward one of the nurses.“She's listening.”I turned to her.“I need a standard cranial surgical set prepared and checked before I enter. Make sure we have sterile scalpels with appropriate blades, bipolar forceps, monopolar cautery, suction tubing and suction tips, retractors, periosteal elevators, rongeurs, Kerrison punches, a high-speed drill with the correct cranial attachments, bone wax, irrigation, sterile sa

Chapter: Chapter 15—I CAN DO IT!BREADoctor Jason did not waste another second after I agreed to help.The moment I finished speaking, he studied me for a brief moment, as though making one final assessment of the woman sitting before him in a hospital gown with a recently removed IV line and a bandage hidden beneath her hair. Then he gave a short nod and turned toward the door.“Come with me,” he said. “The patient has already been prepared for surgery, and every minute we spend standing here discussing what might happen is another minute we cannot give back.”I stared at him.For some reason, his response surprised me enough that I remained seated for a moment longer.“You're just going to take me to the operating theatre?”Doctor Jason paused at the door and looked back at me.“Is there a reason I shouldn't?”I narrowed my eyes slightly.“Doctor, you have known me for less than ten minutes. You walked into this room, heard that I was a neurosurgeon, and suddenly you're willing to place a patient in my care. Aren'

Chapter: Chapter 14—CAR CRASH.BREA My phone kept ringing. The persistent sound had been bothering me for several seconds, but with my attention fixed on the road, I had no intention of reaching for it. I placed the phone in the small compartment beside the driver's seat earlier, and whoever was calling seemed determined not to give up. It rang again. Then again. I glanced at it briefly, wondering who could possibly be calling me repeatedly “Who is this?” I muttered to myself, keeping one hand firmly on the steering wheel. “Why would someone keep calling when I haven't answered the first few times?” The phone continued ringing. With a sigh, I reached down carefully, trying to pick it up without taking my eyes completely off the road. My fingers brushed against it, but instead of getting a proper grip, I accidentally pushed it farther away. “Oh, come on,” I murmured, stretching my hand toward it again. “Don't do this to me now.” I finally managed to pick it up, but before I could properly bring it to my ear

Chapter: Chapter 13—I'M SORRY.ALEXANDERHow could such a young woman make so much noise and even raise her hand against a man like that? Not just any man, but an Alpha. I could sense his aura the moment I stepped into the corridor, strong enough that there was no mistaking what he was, yet she had still slapped him without hesitation and nearly caused another scene inside my hospital.I shook my head as I walked back toward my office, unable to understand what I had just witnessed. There was clearly something wrong between the two of them, something deeper than the argument they had allowed everyone around them to hear. The woman had been furious, frightened, and completely consumed by whatever she believed had happened to her son, while the man had looked more exhausted than angry, as though he had spent the last several hours dealing with far more than a difficult wife.Whatever their personal problems were, they had no business bringing them into the hospital.I pushed open the door to my office and walked insi

Chapter: Chapter 12—I MUST SEE HER!MICHAEL “And so did I, but I never abandoned my responsibilities as his father.”“It doesn't change the fact that you've probably been praying for him to die. It would've freed you of my grip.""Enough."The roar that came out of me shook the room.“How dare you?”Rhonda immediately stepped backward, and I watched her body tremble as my Alpha aura filled the small room. Her face had gone pale, and for a moment she looked as though she had forgotten every angry word she had thrown at me.I forced myself to take a breath and control the wolf trying to rise inside me.“You will never accuse me of wanting my son dead again,” I said, each word deliberately measured. “Do you understand me? Whatever anger you have toward me, whatever resentment you carry, you will not use our son's condition as a weapon against me.”She stared at me for several seconds, her chest rising and falling heavily.Then some

Chapter: Chapter 11—LAST WARNING!MICHAEL“Excuse me, where can I find a private room where I can speak with my wife?”The nurse looked up from the computer in front of her and studied me for a moment before glancing toward Rhonda, who stood a few feet behind me with tears still streaking her face. The entire situation had become a spectacle, and although I understood that she had been frightened for our son, I could not accept the way she had behaved in the middle of the hospital. I needed somewhere away from the curious eyes of the nurses, patients, and visitors, somewhere I could speak to her without an audience and make her understand that whatever problems existed between us would not be dragged into public again.“There are family consultation rooms down the next corridor,” the nurse explained respectfully. “The second door on the left should be empty. You can use it if you need somewhere private.”“Thank you.”I turned without waiting for another word and walk
