The Alpha's Curvy Mate
Scarlett thought losing her baby was the worst thing that could happen to her. She was wrong.
After her miscarriage, her body changed, her confidence disappeared, and her husband, Ethan, slowly stopped seeing her as the woman he once loved. Now drowning in his growing debt and trapped in a marriage that has become nothing more than a lonely arrangement, Scarlett finally asks for a divorce.
Then she meets Draven.
He is a ruthless Alpha, feared by every wolf who knows his name. The moment he sees Scarlett, his wolf recognizes her as his destined mate.
He wants to protect her. Claim her. Mark her.
Scarlett wants none of it.
She has spent years being treated like someone else's possession. She refuses to become another man's, even if fate says she belongs beside the most powerful Alpha in the supernatural world.
But when divorce leaves Scarlett with nowhere to turn, she is forced into Draven's world, where pack politics, dangerous enemies, and an ancient secret surrounding her bloodline threaten everything she knows.
Draven may be her mate.
Fate may have chosen him.
But if he wants her, he'll have to earn her choice.

Chapter: Chapter 32: Too Long Alive"He's stable," Mira said. "But you need to hear the rest.""How bad?" Draven asked."Lost a lot of blood, but the wound missed anything that would have killed him. He'll heal. Days, not weeks. He's strong." Mira wiped her hands on a towel. "You didn't need to come in here to hear that. I would have told you either way.""I needed to see it myself.""Then see it and go rest. You look worse than he does."Draven didn't argue. Scarlett noticed. He stepped back outside, and she followed, the cold air sharp after the warmth of the cabin."You care about him," Scarlett said. "Foster. It's not just business to you.""He's been with me since before I was Alpha. I was seventeen when my father put him on my personal detail." Draven looked back at the cabin window, where a single light still burned. "I've watched a lot of people die doing this job. I don't get used to it just because it happens.""That's not a weakness.""No. But it's a cost. Every time someone bleeds for me, I owe them somethin

Chapter: Chapter 31: No AnswerThe industrial district looked abandoned from the road, half the streetlights burned out, the rest flickering weak and yellow over empty lots. Draven pulled the car off the main strip and killed the headlights before they reached the turn."On foot from here," he said.Scarlett climbed out without arguing. Adrian was already waiting by the fence line, a rifle slung across his back, his phone in his hand."Still nothing from Foster," Adrian said. "Ninety seconds turned into eleven minutes.""Position?" Draven asked."Northeast corner of the warehouse, watching the loading dock. He should have checked in twice by now."Draven crouched near the fence, studying the building through the gap in the chain link. No lights. No movement. No sound but the wind moving through the broken windows above the loading dock."I go first," Draven said. "Adrian circles east. Scarlett stays behind me.""I'm not staying at the fence," Scarlett said."I didn't say the fence. I said behind me." Draven's eyes

Chapter: Chapter 30: The Mark"Adrian's ready to scout the address," Draven said, pocketing his phone. "He wants thirty minutes before either of us moves.""Then we have thirty minutes." Scarlett crossed her arms. "Which means you have thirty minutes to explain something you've been avoiding since the pack meeting.""I'm not avoiding anything right now. I'm planning.""You're doing both. You can do it while you talk."Draven exhaled, his shoulders still tight from the last hour. "What do you want to know?""The mark." Scarlett held his gaze. "You said it strengthens the bond. Makes it easier to sense each other. If something happens tonight, if I go with you and things go wrong, would it make a difference? Would it keep me safer?"Draven's mouth pressed into a hard line. "Why are you asking me that now?""Because we're about to walk into whatever's waiting at that address, and I want to understand every option before we do. Not because I've decided anything."Draven was quiet long enough that she wondered if he wa

Chapter: Chapter 29: What Ashcroft Hides"Ashcroft Holdings." Draven took the phone from Adrian's hand and read the message himself twice. "That's not possible.""It's not a guess," Adrian said. "My contact pulled the registration directly. Same entity that paid the handwriting expert. Same one that's connected to whatever happened in 1987.""Then someone is using my family's name to move money I never authorized." Draven's voice went flat. Scarlett knew that tone by now. He was angry and doing everything he could not to show it."Or someone in your family authorized it a long time ago, and you've never known," Adrian said."That's not what I meant," Adrian added."I know what you meant." Draven handed the phone back. "Find out who has signing authority on that account right now. Today, not next week.""On it." Adrian stepped outside to make the call, leaving Draven and Scarlett alone in Ethan's kitchen with the sticky note still sitting on the table between them."You still want to go to that address," Draven said. It wasn'

Chapter: Chapter 28: The Missing Ex-Husband"Who sent this?" Scarlett asked, already reaching for her seatbelt as Draven pulled out of the lot too fast for a casual drive."Adrian." Draven's phone buzzed again before she'd finished the word. He read it one-handed, then tightened his grip on the phone. "He's had someone watching Ethan's house since the night we realized Reyes was connected to him.""Since when?""Since I stopped assuming Ethan was only a victim in this." Draven's eyes stayed on the road, hands steady despite the speed. "I didn't tell you because there was nothing to report. Until tonight.""What happened?""Adrian's man lost visual around eleven. Lights on, car in the driveway, nobody answering the door." He glanced at her. "That's not proof of anything yet. People go quiet for a dozen reasons.""You don't believe that.""No."They reached the house in under fifteen minutes. Scarlett recognized the porch light, the same one that had flickered every few nights because Ethan had never gotten around to fixing it. I

Chapter: Chapter 27: Among WolvesDraven led her in without a word. He'd said almost nothing on the drive over, jaw set, eyes on the road, the same quiet focus she now recognized as him bracing for something rather than ignoring her.Four people sat around a long table. Scarlett looked at each face. So these were the wolves Draven had been talking about. She'd expected something stranger. They looked almost annoyingly normal. A woman in a gray sweater. A man checking his watch. Nobody looked like they belonged in a horror movie."Sit," Draven said, pulling out the chair beside his own.She sat beside him, aware that everyone at the table was watching her.An older woman at the far end spoke first. Gray hair, pulled back tight. "So this is her.""Her name is Scarlett," Draven said."I know her name." The woman studied her. "We need to understand what your presence means for Vareth.""Then ask me," Scarlett said. "I'm sitting right here."Draven turned slightly toward the woman. "If you have a question for her, let her
