At the ceremony where my fiancé, Mattew, was to be crowned Alpha of the Riverdale Pack, he publicly rejected our mating bond. He chose Claire, who was already carrying his child. “Claire and her family can help me secure my Alpha title,” he said, without a hint of shame. “And I need her to give me an heir.” As for me? “Just wait a year. The Luna title will still be yours.” Everyone thought I’d just accept it. After all, I’d been hopelessly devoted to him for seven years. But that very night, I left to find my Second Chance Mate. Three years later, I returned to the Riverdale Pack, accompanying my mate—the Alpha King—on his tour of the territories. He had some last-minute business and sent someone else to pick me up. But at the airport, I ran into Mattew. He looked at me with pity. “Done with your little tantrum? Claire’s son needs a nanny. You can come back and be his caretaker.”
