“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

Melissa stared into Radulf's eyes, her cheeks already burning. Was his way of awakening her wolf really through a kiss?

"You and Black are the same, but he's your wolf," she murmured, trying to steady her thoughts. "He's cute."

Radulf smirked. "That means I'm cute too."

Melissa blinked rapidly, momentarily thrown off. "Huh?" She quickly shook her head. "You? No way. I—I'm going to my chamber now. I need to rest."

The truth was, she needed a moment alone—to process the overwhelming intimacy of it all.

Radulf's jaw dropped down to hear her words. She admired Black but not him. What kind of nonsense was that? "Rest here," he said, taking a step toward her, "from now onward, you will stay here. I will punish the servants in your service if you don't listen to me."

"What? But didn't you always say how badly my pheromones affect you? Do you really think it's a good idea to keep me close?" Melissa questioned, her voice laced with uncertainty.

Every brush of his lips
