Sold To The Ruthless Lycan King
For nineteen years, Lyra lived with iron chains around her wrists and scars across her soul.
Born a slave, she was taught that her life had only one purpose—to obey, endure, and survive. After her cruel master loses everything to gambling, Lyra is sold at the largest slave auction on the continent, where kings, Alphas, and wealthy nobles gather to buy human lives as if they were livestock.
She expects another monster.
Instead, she is purchased by the most feared ruler alive.
Kael Draven, the Ruthless Lycan King.
The king whose name mothers whisper to frighten their children.
The king who conquered kingdoms, slaughtered traitors without mercy, and has never spared anyone who dared to cross him.
To Kael, Lyra is nothing more than a slave.
Nothing could be more insulting than discovering that the broken girl he bought... is his fated mate.
Refusing to accept fate's cruel joke, Kael hides the truth and keeps her by his side as a slave, determined to bury the bond before anyone discovers it.
But Lyra is far from ordinary.
The mysterious mark branded into her skin is not the symbol of a slave—it is the seal of an ancient bloodline long believed to have been wiped out.
Now the ruthless king who swore never to love must choose between protecting the woman he refuses to claim... or watching the world burn to keep his darkest secret buried.
Because the slave everyone pitied...
...was never meant to kneel.
She was born to rule.
And when the truth is finally revealed, crowns will fall, kingdoms will bleed, and the Moon Goddess herself will demand a price no one is prepared to pay.
He bought her as his slave.
Fate chose her as his mate.
The world will remember her as its queen.
