The mate he failed to kill

“My fated mate signed my death sentence. Three years later, I returned with a blade for his throat-and his wolf still called me home. Alpha King Draven Vaelor chose his crown over me. He used my deepest secrets to condemn me, branded me a traitor, and watched me face execution. But I survived. Now, I am no longer Nyxara Thorne. I am Raven Vale, the rebel commander determined to bring his kingdom to its knees. Then Draven sees me, and our broken mate bond awakens. His pain becomes mine, his touch stirs the desire I buried, and the wolf I once loved refuses to let me go. But my execution was no ordinary sentence. A ruthless royal adviser altered an ancient ritual to steal the power in my blood-and turn Draven into a weapon capable of controlling every werewolf pack. To stop him, Draven and I must face the conspiracy that destroyed my family. But breaking the ritual may destroy our bond forever. He wants his mate back. I want his kingdom destroyed. And when the final sacrifice comes, will I kill the man who betrayed me-or save him and lose everything?”
