I'm Aurora, an unmated commoner, an inferior bloodline. 

My parents taught me a lot of things growing up, but the most important one is never piss off a royal.  They run the world, they make the rules, and they are brutal when they don’t get exactly what they want, especially an unmated commoner girl.

Most royals fuck commoner girls for fun, knowing we couldn’t possibly fight back. Some of them do it to get their release and then kill them, leaving behind no chance for an heir that is a half-breed. I’ve never seen a commoner female return from the palace.

There aren’t many of us left in my pack, but my alpha has managed to convince the royal warriors that there aren’t any unmated females in his pack and if there were, he would gladly hand them over I’m unmated, only a year and half away from turning twenty to feel my mate. I pray to Moon Goddess that I need the protection of a mate.

Until that day, a tall, brute man walks into my house like he was invited in. I tremble while he grins.

He is a Royal.

The Alpha's Commoner Bride

I swear I hear Snowflake in my sleep, calling for me just outside the hut door. I convince myself that it’s in my head, it isn’t real, but I am stuck hearing her precious calls for help reply over and over in my head. Jaxson and I finally get a night to sleep, a full night of blissful rest, and yet I toss and turn in the haze that is her meowing. 


Looking to Jaxson beside me, he adjusts in his sleep, curled onto his side and facing me, but so soundly unconscious. I would hate to wake him, especially if I was just being crazy and hearing noises in my head. I leave bed quietly, my leg sore but I manage a slight limp, looking outside to the dark of night and seeing the porch clear of any kitten.
