He kissed me breathless, senseless—he had me wanting, shamelessly panting against the cool glass of the courtyard, open for anyone.

“We can’t! Someone could see—!”

“Let them," he husked against my neck. "I want them to see.”

My name is Ayda Sabine, once the princess to the illustrious Emerald Lake pack, now a single mother living a life of destitution in Eventide City. My status has been stripped from me, banished by my parents for my digression of falling outside my betrothal agreement. 

To make matters worse, I don't remember who the father of my son is.  All I can recall are his golden eyes. However, when the opportunity arises for me and my son to ascend the social ladder as the personal stylist to Narcissa Onasis of the Diamond Spring clan, I finally get the opportunity to find the man who could be my true mate. 

If Narcissa's fiance, Prince Sebastian of the Obsidian Moon doesn't stop me.

Alpha's Secret Mate

“I think you should wait,” Nicolette was sitting on my bed, folding my clothes to pack away in my suitcase as I gathered Gus’ toys to put into my baby bag. She wore a white nightgown, curly hair—free of the confines of the regulation chignon—cascading around her shoulders in a most becoming way. 


She stroked at a green summer gown I was fond of, one of the last presents I’d received from my family before my banishment. “It’s dark, and the driver has already gone home for the night.”


We both knew that the moment I uttered those words, it was a lie, but what else could I say? The moment with the prince had pried open memories I’d rather have left behind at Emerald Lake. Of another Alpha from beyond my father’s mountains, of gunmetal gray hair and lurid eyes like Hephaestus’ flames.
