Lycan King Billionaire’s Rejected Runaway Bookish Mate: A Rejected Mate Secret Baby Shifter Romance (Possessive Small Town Alpha Kings Book 17)

I never believed fated mates were real,
Until my billionaire Lycan King boss growled “Mate” at me,
pinned me against the wall,
claimed me and left me pregnant.

Easton Craine. My boss. My best friend’s older brother. The man who never once looked twice at the bookish assistant outside his office.

Until that night.

His eyes flash gold. He crosses the ballroom, grabs my shoulders, and growls one word.

“Mate.”

For one hour, I believed him.

Teeth at my throat. Hands between my thighs. A king who’s been waiting ten years to taste me.

Apparently fated mates are real.But t he next morning I catch another woman kissing him in a garden. And at brunch, in front of a hundred wolves, he ends me in six words: “I reject you as my mate.”

I didn’t cry or beg. I didn’t look back.

I run to a small town and a dusty bookshop, pregnant with the next Lycan King. Turns out growing up in an orphanage teaches you how to disappear.

The mate bond didn’t break. It rotted. His mother lied about me being barren.
Great. Supernatural mother-in-law.

Nine months later the King finds me on a hospital floor, on his knees, meeting the son he’s never held.

“I made the worst mistake of my life.”

Kings don’t kneel. Mine will.

He’ll grovel. He’ll bleed. He’ll spend every night earning his way back.

I already learned how to live without him. Let him earn it.
