Fate can be a funny thing. One minute, you are the beloved daughter of a powerful alpha, and the next, you're nothing more than a tool used to join forces with another strong pack. And if you don't go along with what is expected of you, the one who is using you for personal gain will make your life a living hell and destroy anything that is precious to you.
Because of this, Denali Ozera finds herself married to the cold and ruthless Rosco Torres, alpha of the Crystal Fang pack and enemy not only to her, but her entire family.  But by some weird twist of fate, Rosco isn't what others say he is, and he is even willing to help Denali get back everything that was meant to be hers.
Together, Denali and Rosco devise a plan to destroy Denali's father and her stepmother and sister. All Rosco asks for in return is Denali's mind, body, and soul.

Forced To Be His Bride-Fated To Be His Mate.

I keep my gaze fixed on Denali as she slowly begins to understand what I’ve said. I didn’t only bring her here because of the news going around about me and Nadia. I also wanted her to be a part of the opening of the resort that Harold was doing a piss poor job of handling finances for. 


“Did you just say a wedding gift?” Nadia demands, her eyes flashing. “You can’t be serious! For someone like her! How could you…” 


She doesn’t get to finish her words before her father’s hand is covering her mouth and he is shooting a glare her way. Once he finishes, he gives me and Denali an apologetic look. 


“I do apologize for her,” he says quickly. “Please, you were leaving, correct?” 


“That’s right,” I confirm. “I’ll check the ledgers tomorrow, so don’t think you’re off the hook.” 


Nodding, he gives us a shooing motion while continuing to keep Nadia quiet. After giving them another look, I turn and begin to lead Denali out.
