"You shouldn't be here, you're the Alpha King and my ma... ex-mate's uncle." I managed to say, trying to resist his touch.
He chuckled deeply, "You forgot one more thing," he said simply, brushing his thumb over my lower lips.
"What is that?" I whispered almost inaudibly.
"I'm also your mate." He murmured, leaning towards me.
"What do you want from me?" I asked, feeling so confused.
"Isn't it obvious?" He asked with a smirk, "I want you."

***

Aria is heartbroken, when her fated mate, the Alpha's son, betrays and brutally rejects her.
Seeking temporary comfort, she finds herself in the arms of a mysterious stranger who offers her the comfort she desperately craves that night, under the influence of a sexual stimulant and she flees the next morning.
To her shock, she discovers that her passionate night was spent with her ex-mate's uncle, the Alpha King, Alpha Knox Blackwood, who is also her second chance mate.
Knox however is not willing to let her go. He has had a taste and wants her for himself.
Knox offers her a second chance- an opportunity to leave her past as an omega behind.
Will she accept?
What happens when their dark pasts rise to haunt them? Can they build a future together or will the opposing forces drive them apart?

A Night with the Alpha King: Rejected and Reclaimed

　　"Oh no, oh no," I muttered under my breath, panic surging through me as I scanned left and right for an escape. I needed a miracle to get me out of here.


　　Last night with Knox had filled me with happiness, but I was still painfully aware of the sneers and pointing fingers this morning. So, I had decided to avoid them as much as possible. I didn't want anything to steal my joy.


　　Liam and I had paused as we stared at each other from the opposite sides of a deserted hallway that was rarely used, which was exactly why I had followed it – to keep my distance from the others.


　　Unfortunately, my decision had brought me to this horrible situation – face-to-face with my ex-mate, Liam Reed. Liam began walking towards me with a determined look in his eyes.


　　Immediately, I whirled around and began walking back the way I came. I would rather face the pointing fingers and the sneers a million times than see Liam again.


　　"Aria!" He called with a plea in his voice.
