Layla is a human slave who is mocked for being useless, ugly, overweight, and completely insignificant. She should never have been anywhere near the wolves’ sacred mating ritual, but one wrong turn drops her right in the middle of it. And, of course, she unknowingly sits in the one place no wolf dares to go: beside the infamous Cursed Alpha Prince. Scarred. Cold. Silent. Lucian Stark is the Alpha King’s undefeated warrior. A wolf so feared that even the King watches his steps around him. The moment their eyes meet, the mate bond snaps to life. The kingdom freezes in horror. A human slave? Mated to him? To the monster whose last nineteen mates died before the next full moon? Unluckily, Layla becomes the twentieth. So now the only question that matters is…Will she survive what none of the others could, or is she already living on borrowed time?

“Spread wide for your king, darling. Don’t be shy,” I urge her, pressing a delicate kiss to her knee. “B-be g-gentle,” she stutters, her face turning red. “Of course, love. I am a gentleman after all.” I’m not lying. She just doesn’t know I’m never a gentleman in bed. … My fated mate framed me for murder, then got my best friend pregnant while I rotted in a cell. Blind and broken, I thought death was my only escape. Until the Lycan King stormed in, ignored my perfect sister, and claimed me instead. He’s hiding something darker than his reputation. Every bride before me ended up dead. In a past life, I’m the one who cursed him. And now I’m cursed to die at twenty-two, the same age I once cursed him. He needs me to fall madly in love. Only then can he kill me and break his curse. But with the way this mad, possessive king touches me… I’m terrified I’ll beg him to ruin me first. … Warning: Contains explicit content, very dark psychological themes, and intense bickering. If you enjoy a thrilling plot, maddening tension and a sexy daddy who is unfiltered and obsessed, by all means… Dive the f**k in.

"Kane stays unmoving, and I realize he’s barely breathing. I don’t think he needs oxygen to stay alive, so that’s not too surprising, but I can’t’ figure out why he is so still. His hand at my waist is so very close to my breastbone, the longing for him to slide it up only a few inches, to touch me in places no one ever has before, has a gasp leaving my lips.
