LOGINShe ran from a crown to become a maid. He hid a rebellion behind silence. Neither planned to fall. Ivy fled her kingdom on her wedding day with one goal: revolution. In a world where women exist only to serve men, she'll prove they can be more—get educated, build a business, and return home as living proof that freedom is possible, that women could be more than breeders and housewives. Love and men? A distraction she can't afford. Then she becomes maid to the Alpha's household and meets Ezra. The Alpha's son hasn't spoken in ten years, not since he watched his mother die. Everyone believes he's broken, timid, a shadow of what he could have been. But Ivy discovers the truth: Ezra isn't mute. He's dangerous. And the mate bond between them is something neither of them can deny. Behind his silence, Ezra is the infamous Rogue King, leading a rebellion against his own father. By day, he's the obedient son who knows nothing. By night, he's the Alpha's greatest threat. And he wants Ivy with an intensity that terrifies her—because wanting him back means risking everything she ran away to build. As she's pulled into his world of secrets, lies, and a war that's been manipulated from the shadows, Ivy realizes her carefully planned revolution is colliding with his. The man she swore she had no time for has become the one she can't breathe without. She came to start a revolution. He might just be the one worth losing it for.

And when I heard her moving toward the door—leaving—and I knew I had to so I walked out of the bathroom completely naked.The look on her face was worth it.Her eyes went wide, her lips parting in shock. Then her gaze dragged down—slowly, involuntarily—tracking the water droplets sliding down my chest, my stomach, lower still until she reached the already growing evidence of exactly what her presence did to me.Her scent shifted immediately. Sharp and sweet and absolutely unmistakable.Arousal.My mate wanted me.She caught herself a second later, her face flushing crimson as she spun around so fast she nearly tripped."I'm so sorry!" she signed her eyes wide, "I knocked, there was no answer, the door was unlocked—"I bit back a smile and reached for my clothes, moving slowly. Making sure she heard every rustle of fabric so
The Alpha's son was my mate.My. Mate.No. That couldn't be right. This had to be some cosmic joke—fate's way of laughing at the girl who ran from one arranged bond straight into another.Ezra looked just as shocked as I felt, his emerald eyes wide, his chest rising and falling too quickly. But then he blinked, and the shock vanished like it had never been there at all.He gave me a soft and shy smile which was almost sweet as his hands moved gracefully through the air.My name is Ezra. It's nice to meet you.How was he so calm and composed…how was he just casually introducing himself as if nothing just happened? My chest was heaving, and I realized I was shaking badly as I stared at his sweet smile, then i swallowed hard forcing my own hands to coopearet.I’m Sera. It’s nice to meet you too.His smile widened, just slightly, and my traitorous heart did a stupid little flip.Stop it, you fool.

"You're way too beautiful to be a maid, dear."I smiled, not looking up from the window I was scrubbing, "Mrs. Beatrice, that's the third time you are saying this today.""Because it's true three times over." Mrs Beatrice, the woman I now worked for as a personal maid, settled deeper into her armchair, the wood creaking under her weight. "A girl with a face like yours should be married to some wealthy merchant, not on her knees scrubbing floors."I bit back a laugh. That was the exact reason I ran away from home, from my pack. If only I could tell her the truth that I was actually a princess to the third morst wealthy clan in the continent…but that would be neot be necessary. Especially not when I had been so careful, hiding my identity since my escape led me to moon crest pack, six months ago."I happen to like scrubbing floors," I said, moving to the next window. The afternoon sun caught the streaks I'd missed, and I scrubbed harder. "Very fulfilling work."It was the truth. I fi
"Stop fidgeting, princess Ivy, or you'll smudge the ink."I wanted to tell the woman to shove her ink brush somewhere the sun doesn't shine, but I kept my mouth shut. That's what good girls do, right? Stay silent. Stay still. Stay pretty.Gosh, I hated my life. Hated this pack. Hated every single person in this suffocating village who thought a woman's worth could be measured in dowry coins and childbearing hips."Look at how her body has developed." The eldest painter stepped back, admiring her work like I was livestock at auction. "Your husband will be very pleased. And this waist pf yours is perfect for bearing many strong sons."My jaw clenched. Sons. Of course. Because to them, that's all I was good for."She's been blessed by the Moon Goddess herself," another woman chimed in, her wrinkled hands tracing symbols across my ribcage. The white ceremonial paint was cold against my skin. "Betrothed at six years old to such a worthy mate. What an honor."I nearly laughed. Honor my as
