Fantasy

Three years into her marriage, Estelle discovered that the bond she had treasured was nothing more than an illusion. The mark on her neck, the symbol she believed tied her to her mate, didn’t belong to him at all. Determined to confront Asher Daniels, she instead overheard a truth that shattered everything: the man who had shared her bed and whispered vows of love had found his true fated mate five years ago.
    She had never been his choice—only his convenience. The child she had raised with devotion was not adopted, but his son with another woman. Even her past was a lie. She wasn’t a powerless orphan, but the lost daughter of an Alpha, the rightful heir to a pack that now had no leader.
    Disgusted and resolute, Estelle made her decision without hesitation.
    “I have no mate and no children. I am the sole heir to the Blackmoon Pack.”
    With that, she vanished without a trace.
    Asher, certain she was nothing without him—a wolfless woman with no status or power—waited for the day she would come crawling back. He never imagined the moment he would see her again.
    At the Lycan royals’ mating ball, she stood transformed—radiant, untouchable, and powerful beyond recognition. No longer the woman he had discarded, but one who commanded authority in her own right. And beside her stood a man at the very pinnacle of werewolf society, his presence alone enough to shake the world.
