After serving two years in rehab for a crime he never committed, Ethan Strayon came out a changed man, ready to lead the pack he left behind. Knowing that he was the true heir and Alpha of the Strayon's pack, he knew he had to take his rightful place. While in rehab, he made unlikely allies in unexpected places, giving him connections that would later become his secret weapons to overthrow his stepbrother, who was currently running as alpha. 
After his release, nothing prepared him for the shocking truth that awaited him on the outside.
Ethan's heart was set on taking what was lawfully his—that is until he found out that the only way to regain what is rightly his, is for him to have found and marked his mate. How can he do that when he is rejected by his fated mate and now she is with his stepbrother. Would he ever find a second chance, mate? Would she accept or reject him, or will he be ghosted never to claim what is rightfully his?

The Return of The True Alpha

<p>I stood by the window, staring out at the world beyond my office, a slow smile spreading across my face. The city stretched out beneath me, a patchwork of lights and shadows, but all I could see was the future. My future. One where I stood at the top, with Camella by my side, and Ethan crushed beneath my heel.</p>

<p>Finally, I had her. After all the scheming, the plotting, the endless nights of strategy and manipulation, I had secured the throne. And with it, the power to destroy Ethan once and for all. It was almost too perfect. I chuckled softly to myself, savoring the moment. The taste of victory was sweet, almost intoxicating.</p>
