"Say it." I stared at him, refusing to speak. The Alpha took another step forward. "Say that you're not my mate." My heart hammered against my ribs. "I don't belong to you." A slow smile spread across his face. "That's not what I asked." "I don't care what you asked." His hand closed around my wrist before I could move. The moment he touched me, the bond snapped tight enough to steal my breath. I hated that he felt it too. I hated the satisfaction in his eyes. "You're shaking," he murmured. "I'm disgusted." "You'll survive." I tried to pull away. He didn't let me. "Let me go." "No." "You can't force me to stay." His gaze dropped briefly to the mark glowing beneath my skin. Then he looked back at me. "I can hunt you." My pulse stumbled. "I can find you." I swallowed. "I can drag every secret out of the shadows." His thumb brushed my wrist. "And when I do, you'll finally tell me why an entire pack died the night you got your wolf." My chest tightened. "You're afraid of me." For the first time, his expression darkened. "No, Kaela." His voice dropped low. "I'm afraid of what I'll do to anyone who tries to take you from me.”

Elara Voss was raised to believe she was nothing — a spare princess, unloved, unnecessary, easily spent. So when Virell needs to buy twenty years of peace, her father doesn't hesitate. He sends her across the border in a wedding dress, to marry the man they call a monster: Draven Ashkar, the Ash King, last of a bloodline that burns instead of bleeds. She expects a beast. She finds a man carved out of restraint, guarding a secret crueler than anything her own kingdom accused him of. And the longer she stays in his black castle, the more she realizes the real monsters wore crowns in the palace she grew up in. But Elara isn't just a discarded princess. Buried in her blood is the last living thread of a bloodline both kingdoms have hunted for a hundred years — the same power that could end the war, or burn both thrones to the ground. She was sent to die quietly. She is going to become impossible to kill.

Eros, the crown prince of the vampire kingdom, has always known that to reach his full maturity, he would need his promised feeding mate. But when he’s accused of brutal murders, he finds himself cornered by his father’s decree: to marry a sharp-tongued hybrid who fears neither his wrath nor the darkness that surrounds him — and who refuses to submit. With no other choice, Eros accepts Nina, the red-feathered fae, as his wife and future queen — a union Nina is determined to undo as soon as she can. But fate is cruel. Nina’s untamed spirit challenges Eros at every turn, awakening in him a raw, consuming obsession. Desire becomes uncontrollable, and before he realizes it, he marks her as his own. Now, running away is no longer an option.

But when he arrives, she is drawn to him and is shocked to find out the king is her mate. Will she find mercy or face a cruel fate at the hands of the king? ~excerpt~ Then my eyes landed on the source, his green eyes locking onto mine as he walked directly toward me. His face was taut, and there was an unforgiving look in his eyes. His lips curled up angrily as my lips parted slightly in shock. Oh no, the Lycan King was my mate, and he did not look happy.
