Craving Your Touch

"I, Alpha Zeke of the Bloodcrawl Pack, reject you, Ivy Hale, as my mate." "I, Ivy Hale, do not accept your rejection." She was supposed to cry, plead, beg—but she didn’t. Instead, Ivy smirked, teased, and made it her mission to get under his cold, controlled skin. Zeke is the ultimate Alpha: dominant, unyielding, and impossible to sway. Ivy? Bold, fiery, and stubborn enough to challenge him at every turn. Now, she’s everywhere he doesn’t want her—sparring in his training ground, lounging in his favorite chair, whispering sass that makes his wolf restless. Will Ivy’s audacity be enough to break the unbreakable Alpha? Or will family secrets, deadly pack politics,and a past that refuses to stay buried tear them apart before they even admit their bond? Enemies-to-mates, playful, steamy, and full of sass. EXPOSITION The Bloodcraw pack is one of the largest and most disciplined pack in the Northern Territory, led by Alpha Zeke, a stoic, emotionally closed off leader shaped by betrayal and loss. When the moon marks Ivy Hale as Zeke's mate, shock ripples through the pack. Unknown the Ivy, her parents were accused of betraying Zeke's family leading to the death of his parents. The meeting Zeke called turns into a spectacle when Zeke publicly rejects her. Everyone expects tears, pleas and reluctant submission. Instead, Ivy smirks and refuses to accept the rejection, boldly declaring that she'll remain his mate - whether he likes it or not. From that moment, the pack watched their Alpha's composure slowly unravel. Zeke tries avoiding her but she clings to him - arguing that since she didn't accept his rejection, the mate bond was still valid. He begins to find her in places she wasn't supposed to be - places like his chambers, office and personal training center.

Instead, he leans close to me and whispers half-jokingly, "I'm sick of sleeping with you and want to call it quits. Shall we not disclose our relationship?" I smile and nod. Then, I point at Emily Lane, his first love. "This is Lucas' girlfriend." In my past life, I pleaded with him not to leave me. All that got me was torment and death.
