“Let me go Henry,” I said coldly. “I am not yours, not anymore.”
Henry scoffed. “You will always be mine. I was your first mate.”
“And yet you rejected me. I don’t need you anymore, I have-”
“Who do you have, Nyssa? Him?” He laughed humorlessly. “You don’t even know who he is.”
Rowan growled, a low warning sound. “Shut the fuck up!”
“Why?” Henry shot back. “Tell her what you’re hiding, Rowan, let’s see if she still loves you after.”

*********************

Nyssa was once the beloved of the pack—the Beta’s daughter, mated to the Alpha.
But once her parents died, and she was unable to shift, her life began to crumble until she was finally rejected by her mate, Henry.
It was hard enough that he left her for her best friend, but as the Beta’s daughter, she was forced to remain with him until an attack leaves their pack vulnerable and they have to seek help for the lycans.
What was meant to be a diplomatic trip turned into chaos when Nyssa realizes she is mated to Rowan—the lycan king.

Lycans and wolves don’t get along, and there is a lot of history between the three of them.
To Nyssa, the angel she doesn’t know is better than the devil she knows,
But what happens when that angel is just another devil in disguise?
After all, Rowan is hiding some dark secrets of his own, the kind that threatens their already fragile bond.
Would she be able to handle the pressure? Or will she go back to Henry who may have never gotten over her in the first place?

My interaction with Henry happened barely two hours ago. How the fuck could she have heard it all the way in the palace?


I quickly remembered they had guards around our pack to help with the rogue problem.


Next came the embarrassment that someone had watched that happen, and I opened my mouth to defend myself when the anger hit. It came last, but it came strong, like a raging inferno.


It was ridiculous that after everything that happened, they'd believe that I was capable of hurting anyone in that way.


"Did you call to ask whether or not it's true or did you call to try and talk me out of it?"


"I—I just…" she trailed off with a sigh. "I don't know what to believe, Nyssa. I don't think you're capable but-"


"Then why didn't you just fucking ask what happened?" I snapped and she immediately clamped her mouth shut. "In case you wanted to know, I didn't give him any damn list, not that it's any of your concern."
