The Dragon King's Substitute Bride

Aria has always been a ghost in her own pack, a powerless human twin in a world of wolves. When her brother, the pack’s heir, dies tragically in her place, her family blames her and sends her away for warrior lessons at the royal academy; a place where only boys have survived, hoping she won’t return alive. There, she discovers she is not just human, but possesses rare gifts from the Moon Goddess, powers that rival even the strongest in the realm. Watching from the shadows is a mysterious grey-eyed man; the Alpha King. He suspects she is his fated mate, though he can’t feel her wolf, and she doesn’t yet understand why. Surrounded by betrayal from those she trusts most, deadly threats, and unspoken bonds, Aria must survive, master her gifts, and give love a chance with a man whose presence could protect her… and change her life forever. Can she trust anyone? Will she survive the dangers lurking in the shadows? And will the Alpha King, her fated mate, claim her heart—or will darkness tear them apart?

"You're overreacting," he said, stepping toward me. "What we had was... biological. The mate bond is just instinct. What Jade and I have is real love."

On the day of their engagement announcement, Tehila finds the courage to expose the truth, revealing her mate mark and their secret history. But her bravery backfires. Dalton rejects her publicly, calling their bond a "mistake," and her entire pack, including her own parents, sides with her betrayers. Humiliated and alone, Tehila's world shatters. Just as she is about to be punished for her defiance, the pack hall is stormed by the most feared wolf on the continent: Zane Darius, the Rogue King. He stuns everyone by claiming Tehila, offering her sanctuary to repay a life-debt she never knew she was owed. Forced to flee everything she's ever known, Tehila is thrown into a new world of danger and conspiracy. She learns her old pack is rotting from the inside, entangled with a secret enemy. Caught between the rogue king who offers her protection and the fated mate who shattered her heart, Tehila must discover who she is when she has nothing left to lose. But the betrayals are far from over, and her mate's greatest sin may not have been choosing another, but the lies he told to keep her.

I bought Cade Bowman, a werewolf, off the black market. When he was on the brink of death, I treated him tirelessly. When his heat drove him into a feral frenzy, I stayed and soothed him. But when Cade reclaimed the Wolf King's throne, he chose my sister as his queen and sentenced me to death. On the day of the execution, a helicopter dropped out of the sky. I looked calmly at the man on board and said, "Julian, take me to a place without wolves."

"Kane stays unmoving, and I realize he’s barely breathing. I don’t think he needs oxygen to stay alive, so that’s not too surprising, but I can’t’ figure out why he is so still. His hand at my waist is so very close to my breastbone, the longing for him to slide it up only a few inches, to touch me in places no one ever has before, has a gasp leaving my lips. I have to bite down again to keep from moaning, and he hasn’t even kissed me yet." Emory I was born to be the Alpha of my pack. But now...

But I have enemies, and every moment she spends here in my home, Castle Graystone, she's in danger. I can protect her, but at what cost? Am I willing to risk everything to make her mine? Or should I put my duty to my kingdom first?
