LOGIN"Please," I whisper as his teeth graze my neck, my body betraying every promise I made to keep him at a distance. "We can't—" "Can't?" His laugh is dark, dangerous. "Your wolf is screaming for me, Fin. I can smell how much you want this." His hands pin my wrists above my head, his body pressing mine against the wall. "Tell me to stop. Tell me you don't dream about my hands on your skin, my mark on your throat." His lips brush my ear, voice rough with need. "Tell me, and I'll walk away. But we both know you're tired of denying what's between us." Finley Bennett never expected to be Alpha of Forest Trails pack. But when her brother refuses the role, she's determined to prove a female can lead - even if it means burying her broken heart. Because the one wolf who was supposed to be her perfect match chose another, leaving her with nothing but duty to cling to. When Mountain Ridge's powerful Alpha arrives to discuss border threats, his sudden marking of her as his mate offers a second chance at happiness. But fate isn't finished testing her yet. Another cruel rejection leaves her wondering if she's destined to lead alone. As mysterious attacks threaten pack lands and ancient magic stirs, Finley must navigate pack politics, unseen enemies, and the return of her first mate. But something darker lurks beneath the surface - a hidden enemy whose manipulation could cost her everything she's fought to protect. With her territory under siege and her heart torn between two wolves who rejected her, Finley must decide: can she trust fate's choice a third time? Or will opening her heart again destroy everything she's built?

BrynleeAfter my earth-shattering orgasm, Rhett’s on me almost before I can process, flipping me like I weigh nothing, pressing my cheek into the mattress with one hand at the nape of my neck. The restraints dig into my wrists, still tight behind my back, and I whimper from the sudden shift.“Stay,” he warns, and his body covers mine from head to toe, a blanket of heat and muscle. I feel him fumble with his jeans, the sound of a zipper loud in the hush, and then the blunt head of his cock is nudging against my slick entrance, already leaking, already impossibly hard.“Rhett—” I gasp, but it’s not a protest, not even close.He growls in answer, a primal, unrestrained sound, and pushes in with one slow, devastating thrust. He’s big—he always has been—but tonight, it’s like stretching around him for the first time. The burn is sharp, pleasure-bleeding-into-pain, and it rips a sob from my throat.“Fuck, you’re tight,” he grunts, voice strained. “Goddess, Bryn, you were made for me. Look at

For months, I've watched him carefully control his natural dominance, treating me like something fragile that might break.Tonight, I'm proving that I'm anything but fragile."Hands behind your back," he orders, his voice carrying the authority that once made me melt and still does.

Every movement is deliberate, careful, designed to build anticipation while ensuring my comfort."Beautiful," he murmurs, his hands skimming down my sides. "Do you know how long I've wanted to see you like this again? How many nights I've dreamed of having my mate kneeling for me, wearing my collar, trusting me enough to let me take control?
