(TRIGGER WARNING: DARK THEMES AND MATURE CONTENT)


Imagine being a powerless witch, the lowest of the supernatural food chain, when you're from a bloodline of some of the most powerful witches in the planet. 


Yeah. Tragic.


But now on top of that, imagine finding out that you're the fated mate of some cold, ruthless Alpha King who's rumored to bath in the blood of his enemies and eat little witches for dinner. That's just bad luck at this point.



But it's the life of Odessa Pierce.

–––––

In a modern Earth torn by a century long war between the werewolves and witches, with humans stuck in the middle, Odessa Pierce's life is changed forever. 


She's unexpectedly chosen by the Alpha King of the North American region himself to be his BRIDE to seal a "truce".
 

However, in a shocking twist, she discovers that she's mated to the ruthless Alpha King and now has to navigate her growing feelings for a man she thought she'd hate, while still trying to survive in a world that's out to eliminate her kind. 


As ancient prophecies and dangerous enemies arise, will she be able to pierce through the dark veil clouding the Alpha King's heart and make him accept her? Or will their forbidden romance ultimately crumble under the brunt of the secrets and 
revelations that begin sprouting? And what will be her role in this never-ending war? 



Follow Odessa and Kaelos in a dark, delicious ride filled with magic, lust, blood, and the kind of chaos only fate can create.

EXCERPT: 


"Odessa..." His whisper brought me back to reality, causing me to flutter my eyelids as I brought my gaze back to his silver eyes. "Focus. Tell me to shove it in."


Argh, what's his fucking problem?


"Since when do you care about what I think?" 


"I don't." He suddenly responded, causing me to clench my jaw. "If I wanted to, I'd simply tie you up without saying a thing and then fuck you until the entire pack hears you screaming my name. But..."



He paused, his smirk turning into a grin as he brought his mouth to my ear and whispered. "... I want to see you beg for it. I want to see you grovel at my feet, pleading for the sweet release of me fucking you. The mate bond has heightened your sex drive, hon. And I'm the only one capable of taming it."

I swear to the goddess, sitting in this throne room under the scrutiny of these Alpha Kings was agitating. 


I could barely hold back my anger as each of them dared open their mouths to pass judgment as if any of them were saints. 


Alpha King Maddox of Australia especially. 


That bastard had run conquests during the war that led hundreds of his soldiers to their unnecessary demise while he sat in the comfort of his high throne... But no one batted an eye.


But now, when it came to the murder of an Alpha King who had threatened the stability of peace among werewolves, not just in this continent but the others... It became a problem.


"What I'm saying is... We let Alpha King Kaelos defend himself and share his side of the story." Luna Queen Janelle muttered calmly, sipping her cup of tea before adding. "Then we can pass judgment."


I clenched my jaw, resting my hands comfortably on the armrests of my throne.
