Stolen Songbird

When Alyana Mendoza, a strong-willed nurse, is assigned to care for the ailing mother of the cold, powerful CEO-slash-surgeon Dr. Sebastian “Bash” De Almonte, sparks fly—but not the romantic kind. Their clashes are brutal, their tension electric. Until one stolen kiss in the dark changes everything. Just as their hearts begin to thaw, secrets erupt from the past: An ex-lover. A hidden child. A paternity war. And a betrayal so deep it threatens to tear them all apart. As Alyana fights to protect her son from people she once trusted, Bash is forced to risk everything—his name, his empire, even his life—to protect the family he never knew he needed. But when blood isn't enough, and love is tangled in lies... How far would you go for a child who may not even be yours?

Gideon Gray deliberately failed to arrive on time on the day of our bonding ceremony, all so that he could defend my adoptive sister. Dusk had already fallen when he finally had his Beta relay a message to me. "If you hadn't stolen Selene's necklace, she wouldn't have been upset all day. Consider this a lesson. If you don't apologize to Selene, the bonding ceremony isn't happening." Just like that, I became the laughingstock of the entire pack. Even my own brother took Selene's side. "Maybe Gideon defending her is a good thing. It'll teach you to fix that attitude of yours." I turned and walked away. Since I could not rely on my mate or my brother, I would claim the Alpha Female position myself.
