"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

　　"Do you think not telling me will protect them?" I asked coldly. "All you're doing is making it worse for them. I will find out, Aria. One way or another. You should know that by now."


　　Her eyes widened, but she didn't respond.


　　I took a step back, with a hard glare on my face.


　　"And when I do, there will be no mercy. If you had told me their names, I might have considered being lenient. But now? Now, they'll face the full wrath of the Alpha King- and the wolf who protects his mate."


　　I could see a hint of fear cross her face. However, she wasn't scared of me. She was scared of what I would do to those people. Good.


　　I turned away from her. "You're mine, Aria. And I won't allow anyone to treat you with disrespect. Not ever."


　　After my declaration, I went to sit on my chair behind the table, and there was a tense silence.


　　Aria fidgeted as she stood there, avoiding my eyes. I wondered what was going through her mind at that point.
