The Forgotten Pulse of the Bond

Ten years ago, Belle Madrigal was blamed for her sister’s death and cast out of her pack. Her Alpha father’s final words “Why did she die, but not you?” drove her into exile. She lived among humans, hiding her identity, her wolf, and her pain.





Now, at twenty-eight, Belle learns her mate is none other than Christian Martin, the powerful Alpha of the strongest pack and heir to a billion-dollar empire. But instead of love, he offers her a contract: marry him for one year so he can fulfill the requirements of his inheritance.





Belle accepts to save her parents’ home but finds herself in a loveless arrangement, mocked by the pack and haunted by the past. Then Christian returns with another woman, the one he truly loves… and it’s Belle’s sister, long thought dead.





As secrets explode and bonds unravel, Belle must decide if she can forgive the mate who rejected her or burn the past down with him in it.
