"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

　　"How is she feeling that way? What's making her feel that way?"


　　Jade's voice softened. "This matter with Astrid and Knox is making her feel like she's losing Knox, like she's losing her mate all over again."


　　"Your pregnancy hormones aren't helping either," Jade continued. "Your emotions are all over the place, and it's making Rhea's pain worse. You're hurting, and she's feeling it ten times over, because it's reminding her too much of Liam's rejection caused by a beta's daughter, though this time it's a beta's sister."


　　Rhea whimpered in pain again, and my heart clenched as I looked down at her, "So she's… reliving it?" I whispered, my throat tight. "The rejection?"


　　Jade sighed, crossing her arms. "Not exactly. But it feels the same to her. She lost one mate because of a beta's daughter, and now, she thinks she's losing another because of a beta's sister."
