TRIGGER WARNING: NON-CONSENSUAL marking (as in biting the nape of the neck to claim someone as your bonded mate.) When the Wolf King, Malachai, meets a mysterious young woman in the gardens of his keep, her warmth shatters the cold iron of his heart. She speaks to him and teases him, unaware that the man before her is the very ruler whispered about in fear: the king rumoured to have murdered his own fated mate. For the first time in years, Malachai feels alive, until her world collides with his in a way neither of them could have foreseen. Lillybelle has always been the outsider, the half-breed daughter of a beta and a human. Her life has been a careful balance of obedience and invisibility. But when her childhood friend and secret love, Rylan, publicly rejects her in front of the entire Royal Summit, her world fractures. Betrayed, humiliated, and stripped of the one bond she dreamed of, she's left standing alone, until the cold, dangerous king steps forward to claim her.

In the world of the shifters, males dominate every plane of the hirerchy. Be it wolves, jaguars, cats or any other species, a male is always the alpha. Rhys Valkyer is the strongest pack leader in all of Asia. Faster and stronger than almost every other wolf in the country, owner of the largest pack, he has never known defeat. But what happens when wolves that venture out too far in the mountaneous regions of the Himalayas never return? It sparks his interest. Mikalya 'Mink' Carnel is the only female alpha in the history of time. Defying the natural order of things, she is the first woman to start a pack of female dominated wolfs. Fearless and stronger than even an alpha male, she is ready to defend her small pack from any threat that comes their way. But when the two most powerful alphas of the world come face to face with each other, will it begin a new war for dominance or will they give in to the fierce attraction powering the greatest desire and passion both of them has ever experianced.
