Elara never imagined her quiet life as a wolfless handmaid would end in public humiliation and banishment. Traded by fate and framed by the golden princess who stole her identity at age twelve, Elara is rejected by the ruthless Alpha King Darius Thornwood in front of the entire realm. When Darius secretly offers her the position of hidden mistress and she refuses, Liora Kane frames her for poisoning and forces a “merciful” banishment only to send rogues to finish the job. In the blood-soaked Shadow Wilds, the legendary Cursed Lycan King, a feral beast chained by a thousand-year curse slaughters the rogues and claims Elara as his second-chance mate. Her suppressed hybrid powers awaken, revealing her as the last White Witch-Werewolf, the only being capable of breaking his curse. Now living in the Lycan King’s forbidden palace, Elara must prove she is far from weak while two kings wage war for her heart: one who discarded her and now hunts her with obsessive regret, and one who fights his own beast to court the woman who calms his curse.

Banished by the Alpha King: Claimed by the Cursed Lycan Beast is a fast-paced, steamy paranormal romance of rejected mates, hidden identities, explosive power awakenings, and a love strong enough to shatter curses and kingdoms.

“How sore are you?” His unexpected presence made me jump in fright. “Your Majesty?” I spun around to see him sitting on the bed I had been staring at earlier. “Come here.” He didn’t repeat the question. Did I mishear? “Your Grace, if you’ll just let me finish cleaning up this area—” I rushed out, suddenly confused and nervous about why he’d want me to come closer. “How about you abandon that and come sit, Cassia. Now.” His tone was firm yet soft. I almost gasped when he raised his eyebrows and patted his left thigh. I gulped hard and took tentative steps toward him….

On my twenty-first birthday, I was supposed to die. The screech of tires, rain, the crushing impact—I braced for the end. Instead, I woke up in a fortress that didn't belong on this Earth. And standing over me was Caius—the most ruthless, beautiful monster I’d ever seen. He didn't save me out of mercy. He came to collect. Ten years ago, my grandfather made a deal to save my life. The price? My blood, and every beat of my heart from the moment I turned twenty-one. Now, I’m a prisoner in his penthouse, a human bride surrounded by a court of predators who view me as a feast. Caius calls me his "Consort." that I was curated, watchedfor a decade. He wants to drain my humanity, force the blood-bond, and turn me into the Queen of his kingdom. He thinks he owns me. He thinks I’m just another toy he can break and remake. But there’s a glitch in his plan. As the days bleed into nights, the hate that burns between us starts to twist into something dangerous, electric, and impossible to ignore. Every time he touches me, the air catches fire. The line between captor and lover is blurring until I can’t tell if I’m fighting to escape him or fighting to stay in his arms. Caius is determined to consume me, but he’s discovering a terrifying truth: you can’t possess a woman’s heart if you’re losing your own in the process. We’re both playing a deadly game, but we’ve stopped caring who wins. He wants to turn me into his Queen, but he might just lose his throne for me. And God help us both—I’m not sure I’m strong enough to stop him.

“If you leave this palace tonight, you become prey” Lyra Vale got rejected by her fated mate like yesterday’s trash, hauled into enemy land, and turned into the single most lethal prize a blood-soaked kingdom has ever drooled over. In Dravenhold they don’t chain prisoners. They drape them in silk that costs more than most packs see in a lifetime and call them queen. Kael Draven, the Enemy King, had every reason to slit her throat the second she hit his dirt. Instead he put his mouth to her ear and claimed her protection. Claimed her. Now the whole damn continent whispers the same filthy truth: her blood can make kings. Or drown them. The past won’t stay buried. Rowan, the Alpha who ripped her heart out to “save his people,” creeps back through the shadows with one desperate, cocky demand: come back to me. Stay here and she becomes Kael’s living blade, soaked in power and whatever else he decides to take from her body. Leave, and she lights the match that turns every pack into smoking graves. One man wants her soul to rule with. The other already shattered it and still thinks he deserves the pieces. Lyra’s done being the girl who waits to be chosen. In a world where power gets ripped out of throats, not politely handed over… she isn’t prey anymore. She’s the f*cking throne. And she’s deciding who bleeds for the right to sit on it.
