ISBN: 9798172154263 - alpha king's human mate: the outcast he was never supposed to want (1 Ergebnisse)

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Grace Whitfield has never belonged anywhere.Left in the middle of a snow-choked forest before she could even open her eyes, she was raised by an aging werewolf couple who loved her fiercely and quietly, tucked away from a pack that never let her forget what she was. Not wolf. Not born of this world. Just the fragile human girl who reeked of a mother's death and a father's hatred, a walking omen nobody wanted near their children, their mates, or their Alpha.She has learned to make herself small. Quiet. Unseen.Then Alpha King Nathaniel Cross returns to claim his throne, and the moment his eyes land on her, something ancient and untamed roars awake inside him.His wolf doesn't care that she's human. It doesn't care about bloodlines, pack law, or the horrified silence that falls over the entire court when the bond snaps into place in front of everyone. It only cares that she is his, and no crown, curse, or council of furious elders is going to change that.Nathaniel has spent his whole life being told what a king cannot want. He never expected his own body to betray four hundred years of tradition for a girl who flinches when people raise their voices.Grace never expected to be wanted at all.But the same bond that brands her as his mate paints a target on her back. The pack elders call her an abomination. Rival Alphas smell weakness in a king who would choose a human, and they start circling like they've already won. And somewhere in the shadows, the truth about the night she was abandoned is far darker, and far closer, than either of them could imagine.Nathaniel burns for her in a way he can't hide and won't apologize for, claiming her in stolen moments between war councils and blood oaths, branding her skin with a hunger four centuries in the making. Every touch is a rebellion. Every night in his bed is a war he refuses to lose.…
