Aaliyah never thought her life would end up this way. Framed for the death of her brother’s mate, her brother punishes her for justice of his mate. But just then, the Lycan King, Tristan appears, claiming her as his mate.
At first it feels like he was saving her, but it quickly turns into something far from that. Aaliyah tries to convince herself that she has escaped the nightmare of her pack and brother. But the Lycan King, Tristan didn’t save her out of love. Bound by an old Lycan tradition debt that must be paid every decade, Tristan has his own reasons for claiming her and it has nothing to do with the mating bond that they shared. A debt that would cost her freedom, and perhaps even her life.
As debts demands to be paid and enemies claws in, Tristan must face an impossible choice: honour his responsibility and sacrifice Aaliyah, or go against the tradition and risk everything to protect the woman he was never meant to love.

Claimed by the Lycan King

Tristan pushed open a shop door, and we both walked inside before he closed it. I blew out a long breath, turning to him. I still couldn't believe I was here with Tristan. The last time I saw him was four years ago, and I had missed him so much.

"Are you going to tell me what is happening?" I asked, feeling confused at the strong wind blowing against the glass door. This didn't look normal to me.

"You shouldn't be here," he said. "Why are you here?"

"You are not supposed to step foot here in this place," he said, looking around as if checking if someone was there. "You're lucky the ancestors aren't patrolling the place at this hour. They spend most of their time in the Temple of Dis."
