THE CAMPUS ALPHA’S WOLFLESS MATE
A spilled drink. A billion-dollar suit. A mate bond that changes everything.
Elowen Hale is drowning in debt, hiding her wolfless secret, and just trying to survive her scholarship at the elite Mooncrest University, until she ruins Lycian Valor’s designer suit at a charity gala.
Lycian is the cold, untouchable heir to one of the most powerful Alpha bloodlines in the world. At twenty-two and unmated, his wolf is losing control. Then a clumsy scholarship student crashes into him, and his wolf recognizes what his mind can’t accept: she’s his fated mate.
There’s just one problem, she’s wolfless.
His offer: Pretend to be his girlfriend for one semester. He’ll pay off all her debts.
Her response: She laughs in his face. Then accepts, because she’s desperate.
What starts as a fake relationship for mutual benefit becomes dangerously real when Elowen’s dormant wolf awakens, revealing she’s not just any wolf, she’s a Moonsilver Alpha, from a bloodline thought extinct and hunted for centuries.
Now Elowen must navigate pack politics, survive those who want her dead, and master powers she never knew she had. And Lycian must choose between his pack’s expectations and the mate who was never supposed to exist.
When ancient enemies emerge and war threatens everything they love, being the Campus King’s fake girlfriend becomes a matter of life, death, and a mate bond that could unite, or destroy, the entire wolf world.

Chapter: Consequences“I’m not coming to your office,” I said.Marcus’s laugh was sharp. “You think you have a choice?”“Yes.”“Interesting. And here I thought you were smart.”My hand tightened on the phone. Around me, the coffee shop continued its morning rush—steam hissing. Cups clinking. Normal sounds for a morning that felt anything but normal.“I made my decision,” I said. “There’s nothing left to discuss.”“You made the wrong decision. I’m giving you a chance to fix it.”“I don’t want to fix it.”“Then you’re a fool.” His voice dropped lower. Dangerous. “Do you have any idea what you’ve just done?”“I chose not to be bribed.”“You chose to make an enemy. Me. And Madison. And everyone else who understands how things work in this world.”“I’ll take my chances.”“Will you? Because I’ve already made three phone calls this morning. Your library position? Gone by the end of the week. Your housing? There’s suddenly a waiting list for dorm rooms. Very inconvenient timing.”Ice flooded my veins. “You can’t d

Chapter: The ChoiceI pressed the button.But not to call Marcus’s secretary.I pressed end. Turned off my phone completely. Set it face down on the table.Lycian reached me just as the screen went dark.“Don’t,” he said. His voice was rough. Raw.“I’m not.”“You’re not?”“I turned it off.”He sank into the chair across from me. Relief flooded his face. “Why?”“I don’t know.” It was the truth. “This is probably the stupidest thing I’ve ever done.”“Or the smartest.”“My aunt needs that money.”“I’ll give you the money.”“I told you, I don’t want…”“Not as payment. Not as charity.” He leaned forward. “As what I should have offered from the beginning. Help. Because you need it and I can give it.”“And what do you want in return?”“Nothing.”“Lycian.”“Okay, not nothing. I want you to give this a chance. Give us a chance. But that’s not conditional on the money. Your aunt needs treatment. I have money. That’s just logic.”My throat felt tight. “You can’t just throw money at people’s problems.”“Why not? I h

Chapter: Breaking PointI didn’t sleep that night.Just lay in bed staring at the ceiling while Tessa snored softly across the room. My phone sat on my nightstand. Dark. Silent. Waiting for the decision I had to make by nine o’clock.Take Marcus Blackthorn’s money. Stay away from Lycian. Keep my scholarship and actually help Aunt Clara.Or refuse. Lose everything. For what? A guy I barely knew who thought we were mates?The choice should have been obvious.But every time I closed my eyes, I saw Lycian’s face in that lobby. The way he’d looked at me. Like I’d hurt him worse than any physical blow could.My phone buzzed at six in the morning.A text from Aunt Clara.How are you, sweetheart? You haven’t called in a few days.Guilt twisted in my stomach. I’d been so wrapped up in this mess that I’d barely talked to her.I called instead of texting.She answered on the second ring. “Elowen? Is everything okay?”“Yeah. Just wanted to hear your voice.”“It’s six in the morning. You’re usually asleep until seven.”“

Chapter: The DealMarcus Blackthorn’s office was in the business building. Top floor. Corner office with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking campus.I’d never been in this building before. It smelled like expensive cologne and leather. Everything was polished wood and thick carpet. The kind of place that made it clear you didn’t belong.His secretary barely looked at me when I walked in at four o’clock.“Ms. Hale?”“Yes.”“He’s expecting you. Go right in.”The door to his office was heavy. Solid wood. I knocked anyway.“Enter.”I pushed the door open and stepped inside.Marcus Blackthorn sat behind a massive desk. He was in his fifties, with silver hair and sharp green eyes. Madison looked just like him. Same eyes. Same predator smile.“Sit,” he said. Not an invitation. A command.I sat in the chair across from his desk. It was lower than his chair. Designed to make you feel small.“Thank you for coming, Ms. Hale.”“You didn’t really give me a choice.”His smile widened. “Smart girl. I like that.”I d

Chapter: The SummonsMonday morning felt like walking to my own execution.I stood outside the Financial Aid office at exactly nine o’clock. My hands were sweating despite the cold. Through the glass door, I could see Director Calista at her desk. She looked up, saw me, and waved me in.The office smelled like old paper and bitter coffee. Director Calista was a small woman with gray hair pulled back tightly. She’d always been nice to me before. Professional but kind.Today her face was stone.“Sit down, Ms. Hale.”I sat in the chair across from her desk. My backpack felt heavy on my lap. Like I could use it as a shield if needed.“I’m sure you know why you’re here,” she said.“The gala.”“The incident at the gala, yes.” She pulled out a folder. Opened it. “We’ve received several complaints about your behavior Saturday night.”Several? I’d messed up with one person. How did that turn into several complaints?“It was an accident,” I said. “I was helping serve drinks because they were short-staffed. I didn’t

Chapter: The Hunt BeginsI woke up to seventeen missed calls.My phone had been on silent all night, but when I picked it up Sunday morning, the notifications made my stomach drop. Three numbers I didn’t recognize. Two from the financial aid office. Twelve from a blocked number.And one voicemail.I pressed play with shaking hands.“Ms. Hale, this is Director Calista from Financial Aid. We need to discuss your scholarship status. Please get in touch with our office first thing Monday morning. This is urgent.”I dropped the phone on my bed as it had burned me.This was really happening. They were going after my scholarship. Less than 12 hours after the gala, they were already moving.Tessa was still asleep in her bed, one arm thrown over her face. I got up quietly and went to the bathroom. Splashed cold water on my face. I looked at myself in the mirror.I looked terrible. Dark circles under my eyes. Skin pale. I’d barely slept, too busy running numbers in my head over and over. No matter how I calculated it,
