The Alpha's Forbidden Beta.

"I, Alpha Draven, reject you, Beta Ivory... as my fated mate."

I gave him my loyalty, my blade, and my heart. But in the Obsidian Pack, a bond between an Alpha and a female Beta is a death sentence. To save his throne, Draven did the unthinkable: he chose the law over me.

I stood in the shadows and my soul shattered as he sank his teeth into another woman's neck. He rejected our bond to keep his crown, leaving me with nothing but the bleeding remnants of a love that was never supposed to exist.

But crowns are made of gold, and gold can be stolen.

When a bloody coup leaves Draven overthrown and left for dead, his "perfect" Luna disappears. I should have let him rot. I should have walked away. Instead, I'm the only one crawling into the trenches to pull my fallen King from the dirt.

Now, we are rogues on the run. Draven rejected me to lead, but as the world closes in, he's realizing that a throne is nothing without the woman who was willing to bleed for it.

He broke my heart. Now, I'll make him crawl for my love.
