The Alpha Who Wouldn't Let Me Run
One reckless kiss. One lethal secret. One Boss from Hell!
Ariana Vale had a plan: wear a red power suit, ruin her cheating ex’s night, and kiss a gorgeous stranger to prove she’s moved on.
It was the perfect performance. Until she walked into work the next morning.
The stranger she borrowed isn't just her new CEO, he’s Lucien Blackthorne, an Alpha King with a silver heart and a predatory streak.
He’s cold, he’s possessive, and thanks to a viral family group chat, he’s officially "taken" by the girl in the red suit.
Now, Ariana is trapped in a corporate empire built on blood and moonlit secrets. Between a vengeful arranged bride and a boss who watches her like his next meal, she has one goal: Survival.
But in Lucien’s world, "No" is just a challenge, and "Mine" is a death warrant.
She prayed to be too bitter to eat. He decided he liked the taste.
