"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

　　"I'm really sorry for everything, Aria?" Knox murmured softly.


　　I kept my eyes on him. "What are you sorry for?" I asked.


　　I shook my head. "No, you have to be specific."


　　Knox paused for a moment, then he nodded. "I'm sorry for not telling you about Astrid before. I should have. I didn't think it mattered, but I see now that it did."


　　I swallowed, my throat was still dry, but I didn't care about water now. "And?"


　　His grip on my waist tightened slightly. "I'm sorry for dismissing your feelings, for making you feel like you were overreacting when you weren't. I know that I would have reacted worse than that."


　　I looked away from his earnest eyes. I wanted to believe him, but a part of me still felt hurt and betrayed. "And?"


　　Knox bit his lips. "I'm sorry for making you feel like you needed to compete for my attention, when I'm already yours. I never meant to do that."
