After 5 failed mate-bonds, she'll do anything to escape another heartbreak...

Gamma Lucianne learns that her prayers to the Moon Goddess were ignored, and she's being bonded once more. But this time, she's not giving an inch-even offering the lycan king a chance to reject her on their first meeting...

... but he refuses.

The lycan king owns everything... except her heart.

King Alexandar considers his mate a gift from the Goddess. Yet she seems determined to reject him. His patience is tested as he finds any and every way to win her heart and protect her, especially when Lucianne becomes a magnet for danger.

Certain creatures don't want her as queen, and they'll do anything to stop Alexandar from making her his. Even if it means eliminating her.

Alexandar won't stand for anyone disrespecting his mate, let alone harming her. He'll remove anyone who stands in his way. He will win Lucianne's heart, no matter the cost. Blood will be shed, and in the end, will the king and queen still be standing?
