"Tell me you’re mine."

"And if I don’t?"

"Then I’ll make you say it." 

Ivy Blackwood thought she had outrun her past. She built a new life, buried the pain, and swore never to let another Alpha break her. But when the ruthless Alpha King, Leo Ashton, sets his sights on her, resisting him becomes impossible. He’s dominant, possessive, and everything she should run from—but the way he touches her makes her crave more.  

Just as she begins to surrender, the mate who once rejected her returns, determined to claim what he threw away. Now, Ivy is trapped between two powerful Alphas—one who shattered her and one who could own her.  

But Ivy isn’t the weak girl they remember. She’s done being a prize to be fought over. This time, she’ll make the rules.

It wasn’t the kind of pain I’d expect from exhaustion or injury—it felt primal, ancient, as though something within me was being pulled apart and reassembled. 


 Leo was at my side instantly, his warm hand on my shoulder. “What’s wrong?” His voice held a rare note of fear.
