Ruthless Obsession
Nia Whitmore is a Moon Healer Apprentice just trying to piece her life back together. Five years ago, after one passionate night under the festival moon, Kairo Adeyemi—the cold, devastatingly handsome Supreme Alpha of Nightfang—crushed her heart to settle a bitter pack score. He branded her his enemy and discarded her, leaving Nia with nothing but painful memories and dark family secrets.
Now, after a brutal public betrayal by her warrior boyfriend, Nia is forced to flee the city and seek refuge in Silvermoon Hollow. She thinks she is running toward safety, but she is walking straight back into the lion's den.
Kairo is back, more powerful and ruthless than ever as the Blood Alpha King. He was supposed to use Nia as a mere pawn for his Blood Oath Retribution, but her intoxicating scent still drives his inner wolf wild. When ancient pack secrets unravel, Nia discovers her own hidden heritage connects her to a dangerous Rogue Pack Warlord, making her the ultimate prize in a deadly war for the Moonborn Crown.
Can Nia resist the dangerous, hyperactive chemistry of her true mate, or will the Supreme Alpha break her completely this time?

Chapter: 11"I shall consider that a warning, Lady Honoria," I murmured, my eyes lingering on her faux-innocent smile.Honoria beamed like a cat who had just cornered a mouse. "Please do, my lord."I caught a flash of dark amusement in Alpha Ambrose Fenleigh's eyes as I collected the young female and led her away from the group. Strangely enough, I found nothing humorous about my predicament."So what is this grand plan you dragged me into the library for, Peregrine?" I asked later that afternoon, closing the heavy mahogany doors behind us.Normally, this hour was reserved for formal tea gatherings, but since the pavilion's official agenda hadn't begun and lunch had dragged on, most of the nobility had retired to their suites to rest before the evening feast.Peregrine flopped into a leather armchair across from me and waggled his eyebrows. "You practically gave me a coded summons about a recommended book. I don't think I've ever opened a novel in my entire li

Chapter: 10"The Alpha of the Fenleigh Pack and his second-in-command, my lord," Winifred Pritchard announced, giving a cursory, rigid nod in Peregrine Ashdown's direction. "Lord Percival Kingsnorth has not yet made his grand entry, but several high-ranking pack leaders are currently gathering for the mid-day feast in Luna's Tea Room. If you will follow me."I didn't offer the butler the satisfaction of a verbal reply, simply matching his heavy stride as he led us through the arched entry into the Pack Gathering Gallery. My golden Alpha eyes swept the surrounding corridor, noting the subtle pack sigils carved into the stone columns and the massive iron sconces lining the walls. The interior smelled heavily of pine polish, old stone, and the distant, metallic tang of blood and silver.We mounted a short flight of stone steps at the far end of the gallery. Winifred stopped outside a set of double oak doors."Luna's Tea Room, my lords," Winifred stated coldly. "Pack refreshments have been set out. S

Chapter: 9"I finally managed to slide Lady Fortune into a slip along the Moonshore Bay docks," I told Peregrine Ashdown, hopping off the wooden deck to help him secure the thick mooring ropes.The harbor was mostly quiet. The grand marina was still empty, and I didn't see any sign of Edmund Blackmere’s aggressive flagship."It doesn't look like Blackmere Tide has put in yet," Peregrine observed, wiping his brow against the salty sea breeze."Aye, you couldn't miss that vessel if you tried," I replied, grabbing my heavy duffel. I had only laid eyes on Edmund's customized cutter once, but its low, razor-sharp hull and twin twin-screw engines were built strictly for raw speed and intimidation. It was one of the deadliest imports out of the Greyhaven Port shipyards, and I intended to prove my vessel could outmaneuver it."Maybe Blackmere is still hunting down his missing cognac," Peregrine suggested with a grin. "Word at The Alpha's Club is that the Masked Alpha stripped his entire shipment clean."

Chapter: 8"I can hardly help how I look, Father," I said, gazing at him with feigned innocence.His thick brows drew together in a harsh line. "You know very well that is not what I mean, Rosalind. You are up to something.""How can I be up to something?" I replied smoothly, keeping my tone light so he wouldn’t suspect a thing. "We have not even stepped foot inside the Moonshore Pack Pavilion yet."Bartholomew grunted, far from fooled by my defensive front. "Is it asking too much that you behave with proper decorum while we are here?""Of course it isn't," I answered, keeping my face completely blank.It wouldn't be asking too much if I had any intention of allowing Edmund Blackmere to brand me as his submissive mate, carry his heirs, and absorb the Whitcombe Pack into his corrupt bloodline. But that was never going to happen. I would burn Thornmere Territory to the ground before I knelt at the altar in the Moon Bond Chapel tomorrow night.An ho

Chapter: 7"Do you truly think we require nine trunks, Betsy?" I asked, pacing the floor of my bedchamber in Whitcombe Pack Manor.The room looked as though a tempest had ripped through it. Suits, tailored leather vests, silk shirts, and formal tunics spilled over the edge of the carved wooden four-poster bed and draped across every chair. Riding boots, polished parade boots, and light leather slippers littered the rug."Of course we do, Master Rosalind," Betsy Wrenford answered brightly, neatly folding a heavy dark green dress coat. "Lord Percival Kingsnorth is hosting the gathering at Moonshore Pack Pavilion. Every Alpha and high-ranking noble in Thornmere Territory will be in attendance."I didn't care if every grand Alpha from Ravenwick City down to Greyhaven Port showed up, but there was one male I desperately wished would stay away: Leopold Ashcombe, my former mate. Even though I no longer felt an ounce of affection for him, I had no desire to watch him parade around

Chapter: 6"One hundred crates of pure Rickky brandy, several heavy iron chests of silver coin, and fifty barrels of rare spices," Magnus Fleetwood said, his ice-blue eyes gleaming like frosted steel in the low light of the oil lantern.We were sitting in the cramped, iron-lined mess cabin of The Silver Current, docked at the far edge of Greyhaven Port. Magnus stood up, opening the wooden hatch to glance out over the rain-slicked dock before dropping back into his seat with a dark, satisfied grin."Did you secure the clove pouch?" I asked, my voice a low, gravelly baritone that made the wooden table vibrate. It was the only part of the seized pack goods I ever kept for myself. My pack members swore it numbed wound pain, but I preferred the fresh, sharp scent on my skin.Magnus reached inside his heavy leather coat, producing a small velvet pouch and tossing it onto the table. "Aye, Alpha. Safe and sound.""Thank you." I pocketed the pouch inside my tactical vest. "A
