Bonded to the Bastard: My Rejection, His Obsession
He thinks I'm his problem. He doesn't know I'm his destiny.
The night I ran, I was nothing but a broken girl fleeing a fate worse than death. My family, the Crystal Lake Betas, deemed me a wolfless defect and planned to use me for breeding stock. But on my escape, a moment of reckless desperation led me into the arms of Alpha Luciano Westwood, the most formidable male in the territories... and he rejected our undeniable mate bond, leaving me shattered and on the run.
Months later, I’ve found fragile peace, living secretly among humans, but the Alpha who broke my heart can't forget my scent. Luciano, haunted by regret and a primal obsession, tracks me down, suspecting I'm a pawn in a pack war. He is determined to force me into his protection, initiating a dangerous game of forced proximity where every shared breath sharpens the tension between us.
As the Alpha struggles to reconcile his suspicions with the raging desire of the mate bond, I discover the truth: those crystals weren't suppressing a defect - they were holding back a Prime Wolf, an ancient, elemental power ready to be unleashed. Now, the one male who once scorned me is the only one strong enough to stand by my side.
Luciano rejected the weak girl. Can he command the weapon I've become?
"I’ll just have the usual, Alanza. I’m not running from trouble this time."
