Sera had always known she had a mate. She had seen him in her dreams since childhood—his warmth, his love, his whispered promises. But when she finally meets him in reality, everything crumbles.

Her mate is none other than Lucian, the Alpha King, the most powerful werewolf in the world. But he is nothing like the man in her dreams. He is cold, ruthless, and completely uninterested in their bond. Worse, he humiliates her in front of everyone, shattering her heart.

But fate is cruel. When war looms on the horizon, Sera is forced to stay in his kingdom, trapped under his rule. He wants nothing to do with her, yet he refuses to let her go. And when a deadly enemy threatens to destroy them all, she realizes there is more to their bond than either of them understands.

If the Alpha King was truly her mate… then why does he treat her like an enemy?

The Alpha's Forgotten Mate

Lucian's breath was warm against my cheek, his arm still looped around my waist. He hadn't moved since the kiss.

But now his entire body was stiff as a board behind me, like he'd only just registered what happened. Like someone had dumped ice water down his spine and he couldn't decide whether to scream or bolt.

Didn't want to see the look on his face.

But I still shifted my eyes just slightly, just enough to catch the edge of his profile.

His eyes were wide. Shocked. Mouth parted in disbelief.

Then, with a low sigh that sounded like it had been ripped from his chest, Lucian pulled away from me. He sat up in the bed, rubbing a hand down his face.

"I… I'm sorry," he said, voice hoarse.

I blinked up at the ceiling, face flushed so hard I could probably fry an egg on it.
