Claimed by the Alpha Mate: A Rejected Mate Werewolf Romance

I rejected him the moment the mate bond snapped into place. But Alpha Kieran Cross isn't the kind of man who takes no for an answer. I never wanted a mate. Especially not the brooding Alpha who thinks he owns everything he touches. When my mother and I fled to Moonrise Falls, I had one rule: keep my head down, graduate, and disappear. Kieran had other plans. The second our eyes met, he declared me his fated mate. I said no. Big mistake. Because rejecting an Alpha doesn't make the bond vanish-it just makes him more determined to claim me. And when prophecy, betrayal, and a war for the crown ignite, Kieran might be the only thing standing between me and a fate worse than death. The problem? I'm not just any werewolf. I'm the last of a bloodline worth killing for. My power could unite the packs... or destroy them all. The bigger problem? Someone's been hunting my family for eighteen years. They killed my father. They want me next. The biggest problem? Every time Kieran touches me, I forget why I'm supposed to resist him. The bond is pulling us together, but trusting him with my heart could be the most dangerous thing I've ever done. Some bonds can't be broken. Some loves are worth any price. And some Alphas will burn the world to claim what's theirs.
