“I won't divorce you, Melissa. Until your last breath, you will live with me in this nameless marriage,” Radulf declared.

Melissa Rosetta, the illegitimate daughter of the Alpha King and an omega servant, had no choice but to comply with her father's demand― marry Radulf De Lagrange, the fallen Alpha of the once-powerful Shadow Hunter Pack.

Despite being the strongest dominant alpha, Radulf's influence and power crumbled when his father was accused of treason against the crown. 

As for Radulf's punishment? He was forced to marry a weak, wolf-less omega, who he had nothing but disdain for. To top it off, he was sent to the Western Frontier on his wedding day.

Melissa eagerly awaited Radulf's return as she suffered through ridicule, believing that when he did, he would be happy to see how mighty his pack had become under her care.

However, after four years, Radulf returned with a beautiful woman, shattering Melissa's heart.

"You betrayed me while I stayed loyal to you. I don't want to live with you and watch your affair with another woman. Divorce me, Radulf, and free me from this marriage. If you don't wish to do that, then mark me,” Melissa demanded on the day of his return.

“Divorce you, Feisty Princess? Never! If you want to get marked, then beg me or seduce me to do so,” Radulf challenged.

On the day of his rut, he said, “Melissa, my mate, allow me to mark you.”

The Alpha's Forsaken Feisty Mate

Radulf entered the chamber, impeccably dressed, his eyes immediately finding Melissa seated near the small table.

"You didn't leave," he remarked, his tone even. "I'm not a tea enthusiast. You should enjoy it alone—or perhaps with Nina," he added, his gaze briefly flicking to the untouched teapot.

Melissa rose from her seat, her soft expression belying her persistence. "Can't you share just one cup with me? For my sake?" she asked gently. "I promise, after today, I'll never ask again. I even had Pia reheat it just a few minutes ago."

Radulf hesitated, then nodded. "Fine. Pour me a cup."

A small smile tugged at Melissa's lips as she quickly poured the tea, her movements graceful yet unsteady under his scrutinizing gaze. She placed the cup and saucer before him, watching as he picked it up and inhaled its fragrant aroma. Taking a slow sip, he didn't utter a word, though the tea's quality seemed to satisfy him.

A strong alpha lineage
