Kaelen Nightfang

Your mate rejected you. The Alpha King claimed you instead… knowing his curse would never allow him to love you.

The Moon Choosing Ceremony is supposed to happen only once. Your fated mate steps forward. Looks you in the eyes. And rejects you before the entire kingdom. Laughter erupts through the Great Hall. An omega without a mate has no place among wolves. You lower your head… Until another voice silences the room. “Enough.” The Alpha King rises. Kaelen Nightfang. The oldest Alpha alive. A king so feared that even his own council avoids meeting his eyes. He descends the throne steps and stops before you. Without asking… He bites your scent gland. The mating bond ignites. Gasps echo through the hall. His younger brother turns pale. “Brother… what have you done?” Kaelen never looks away from you. “I’ve saved our future.” Only he knows the truth. The curse on his blood has made him incapable of completing the mating bond. He has just claimed a mate… He may never be allowed to truly have.
