She is the daughter of an Alpha whose family had conquered the last demon wolf in Illyria.

Esmeray is born into the prestigious Alpha family, known as the Montague. But after her father's untimely death, her life becomes a nightmare of abuse at the hands of her cruel stepmother and stepbrother, who torment her for lacking a wolf. 

Desperate for salvation, she dreams of a mate who would come and rescue her from the cruelty of her pack. When he finally arrived, her hopes were shattered, for he had only come to reject her.

Her only connection to her family's proud heritage is her striking blue hair, a sacred legacy from her ancestors. But in a desperate bid for freedom, Esmeray cuts her hair to escape being sold to a rogue.

Her daring action pushes her to the precipice of death, unwittingly awakening a powerful demon wolf, imprisoned for 15 long years. This Alpha demon, who has yearned revenge and bloodthirst, is instantly drawn to Esmeray the moment he senses her, and he is determined to keep her at his side at all cost. 

In the world of wolves, the hunt is everything — and he has found a prey worth chasing.

The Villain Alpha's Cursed Mate

"The real objective was misdirection," Donovan said, his voice measured but firm. "He wanted us to believe the king was his target, the throne. But that was a mere illusion. He knew we were coming to the North, so his true aim must lay elsewhere– someone, rather than something."

His fingers brushed against his throat, an unconscious gesture, as if recalling the sensation of those unseen chains constricting him.

The memory of the true bearer's power still lingered in his mind, a force both intangible and inescapable, yet it didn't even look as though he was putting in any effort. If the true bearer was right, if he is the one sustaining his life, then he also held the power to take it at will.

That alone was a message in itself. But why? That was the only thing Donovan feared, because his life was tethered to Esme as well. If anything were to happen to him, she would be affected in more ways than one.
