Her Ruthless Revenge: From Betrayed Rogue to the Alpha King's Queen

Rutledge Shepp Werewolf

“Arden Mccall gave everything to her fiancé, Hassan Doyle-her loyalty, her blood, and months of deadly missions meant to secure their future. Then Hassan sent her to assassinate his greatest political rival. Before Arden could strike, Darius Blankenship, the ruthless Alpha King, stormed in, killed her target, and discovered what neither of them expected: Arden was his fated mate. He marked her by force. Hassan witnessed it all from behind a sofa. He never tried to save her. Instead, he blamed Arden for ruining his plans, replaced her with the wealthy Sloane Sharpe, and let his family cast her into the streets as a shameless traitor. Now Arden carries the mark of the most feared Alpha in the South-and a bond she never asked for. Worse, Darius is dying from silver poisoning, and her blood may be the only thing powerful enough to save him. To Hassan, she was only a weapon. To Darius, she may be a cure. But Arden is done being used by either man. On the day she was supposed to marry Hassan, she returns to the wedding he has turned into a public celebration of his new alliance with Sloane. This time, Arden brings proof of their betrayal. "Go tell Hassan," she says, facing his terrified best man. "Tell him his bride has arrived."”
