It took the Beasts mere weeks to overthrow the human government and eliminate most of the population. Those who survived were put into slavery, forced to spend their lives serving the royal families and wealthier Beasts. Adeline has been a servant for the royals for as long as she can remember. It's hard work, but she feels lucky to be born and raised in King Richard's kingdom. He's a kind ruler, and his humans are often treated well. King Heloix, on the other hand, is known for his ruthlessness. He has little tolerance for his fellow Beasts, and even less for humans. Rumors are that his servants are often killed as punishment for even the smallest mishaps, and to survive even a year while working for him is an accomplishment. When Adeline is transferred to King Heloix's castle, it takes him only seconds to recognize who she is to him. Will he accept her as his mate or reject her existence? ⚠️THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE AND TRIGGERING THEMES⚠️

(Second book to “Marked by the Alpha”. It is highly recommended that you read MBTA prior to IMH.) I, Daniella Saunders, had suffered quite a lot when I stayed in Huntstown, Michigan. Leaving my true soul mate, experiencing the betrayal from the ones I thought I trusted, and shifting into a rare type of werewolf is a whole lot on my plate. Because of my kind, I was a threat to the ones I loved. I did the only thing that I could do. I left Huntstown in hopes of learning more about myself and keeping the ones I treasured safe. My plan worked out … for a little while. The news of my mother’s death had brought me back to Huntstown – a place where I wasn't expecting to return to for another ten months. I also wasn't expecting the heartbreaks, the total chaos, and the shocking surprises that came my way. So, be prepared as I narrate to you the story of my chaotic life. * In need of major editing.
