"Are you two close?" I didn't have to ask what he meant by that. "And why should you care?" A part of me, deep down, hoped he would say he cared for me. I had a feeling he was worse than I'd imagined, and yet, I wanted to forget all of that. "Do you want me to?" "You brought it up, so you must care at least a little." "I don't possess those emotions. I was assuming you already knew that. Unless you were hoping I would be different?" I dared to risk a glance at him, quickly looking away when I realized he was watching me. "Are you saying that I'd be so stupid as to develop feelings for you? Even I'm not that careless." I met his unwavering gaze. "You're more careless than you think." * * * When Rei discovers a portal, she is taken to the magical realm of the fae, where she meets a dark and mysterious king, and discovers her ability to fight the fae. Tensions are high and war has broken out between the light and dark kingdoms. What will happen when her brother shows up searching for her? What happens when she grows close to one of the fae? -some characters loosely based on Elizabeth May's The Falconer- //cover does not belong to me//

"You can't tell anyone." His words hit me hard, but I was ready for them. I grimaced slightly, but did my best to hide it as I squeezed my arms in response. "Fine," I said, nodding at him but not wanting to meet his eyes. I was met with silence. "Was there anything else?" I bit off, my tone a little more irritated than I intended it to be. He raised an eyebrow at me, and I felt almost naked as he studied me. His expression wasn't completely cold, but I couldn't figure out what else it held. "I wasn't expecting this," he admitted eventually, as if this were the easiest topic in the world. "I didn't ask for it to happen right now. In fact, the timing is rather terrible. And I'm sorry for that. But no one can know about this, okay? No one." "I said fine," I snapped. "Why don't you just reject me and put me out of my misery? I guarantee I can do it again." He blinked, taken aback by her sudden outburst. "You... already had a mate? And you were rejected? Who is he?" "You don't need to know," I replied, tilting my head to one side as I narrowed my eyes at him. "If you want to keep secrets, then so can I." I wasn't off to a great start with him, but only the Moon Goddess knew that it was only going to get worse from here. . . . Rhea Riverwood has already been rejected once by the man she thought to be her mate, so when she's given a second chance, she can hardly believe her luck when it comes in the form of heartbreaker James Severin, King of the Alpha Werewolves and Rhea's second fated mate. Rhea struggles to come to terms with who she is and where she came from as James struggles with his feelings for her, but they need to pull their shit together fast when someone close makes it very clear they want revenge and the royal throne, and won't stop at murder to get them.
