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.
