Beta Elias gave everything to his pack—his loyalty, his strength, and his heart. But when his fated mate, Alpha Kael, accused him of the death of the previous alpha, everything fell out of place. 

He is hunted and at the brink of death, but fate smiles as a deal of survival comes in time. But things are never as they seem. Not when Elias dies and comes back the day of his wedding... indeed, Fate had so much in store for him.

"I won't lose you," Rowan whispered against his skin. "Not to Kael… not to fate."

He bit down on Elias's nipple, and Elias moaned hard.

"You belong to me," he added, then lifted Elias into his arms.

Elias responded simultaneously, wrapping his legs around Rowan's torso. Their eyes, filled with desire, stared down at each other.

Rowan carried Elias to the bed, and as Elias's back touched the soft mattress, Elias did not hold back…

He opened up, welcoming the prince with open arms and legs.

From Beta to Consort

The court was in chaos, thoughts divided, and the ministers stood on the edge.

"We already have a crown prince. You can't name another," Minister Fineland roared.

But Rowan sat still, watching the tension unfold like he hadn't caused it.

"Rowan, you have to think this through. The son of Kora was born first, and the messenger of birth arrived before the palace knew of the second prince," Queen Melissa's voice echoed, and Rowan turned to her with a broad smile.

"Indeed, but by law, the first who arrived is heir to the throne."

Queen Melissa nodded, and Kora could feel the tension within her subside as her nails dug deeper into her skin.

"What time was the baby born?" Rowan asked, and Queen Melissa turned, but he held up a hand, stopping her.

"The question is meant for the mother of the child alone."

Kora felt all eyes turn to her, their ears eager for salvation. She stood up and slowly bowed.
