Seraphina’s fated mate rejected her to marry the Lycan Chairman’s daughter - Adrian Valois’s precious Camille. As if that wasn’t brutal enough, he destroyed her family and tried to force her into becoming his secret mistress! Seraphina’s answer? “I’d rather be with your future father-in-law than ever submit to you!” Adrian is notorious for his power, wealth, and being the ultimate playboy who never touches the same woman twice. But Seraphina’s about to shatter all his rules… over and over again.

The Lycan Alpha’s Forbidden Desire

I could hardly contain my fury as I observed the scene unfolding across the garden. Two she-wolves—young, beautiful, and utterly cruel—had cornered Seraphina beside the punch table, their smirking faces filled with malice. My enhanced hearing easily picked up their venomous words.


"I can't believe you actually showed up," the taller one sneered. "Don't you have any dignity?"


Seraphina stood rigid, her expression carefully neutral despite the flush creeping up her neck. "I'm here with my mother."


"How pathetic," the second wolf taunted. "Everyone knows your fated mate is with another woman. Yet here you are, hovering around like a desperate little ghost."


Something primal and possessive roared to life inside me. The wolf within me clawed at my restraint, demanding I put these insignificant creatures in their place. I had barely known Seraphina for a few months, yet the need to protect her overwhelmed all logical thought.
