Burned and Claimed

"You think you can control me?"

"I think you're terrified I already do."

He's the pack's Beta - confident, admired, and untouchable. The golden boy of the wolves, trusted by the Alpha, praised by the warriors, and adored by everyone who matters.

I've always been a nobody. Just another nameless warrior with no family, no legacy, and a human job that keeps me away from the pack's spotlight. It should've been easy for him to cast me aside. It should've been easy for me to let him go.

But bonds don't break so easily. And neither does desire.

Because beneath his pride and reputation, there's a truth he can't run from, behind closed doors, in the dark where no one is watching, power shifts. And the Beta learns that being mine is the one thing he can't control.
