So I accidentally bonded with Darian who tackled me mid-escape… and now we’re fated mates.

He pins me to the ground like I’m the threat.
In his defense, I did crash into his sacred territory—while running for my life.

Then my magic explodes.
Now there’s a glowing mark on his wrist... and I’m locked in his cell.

He’s furious. I’m terrified.
And something about him makes my wolf ache in ways I don’t understand.

We’re nothing alike.
He’s an alpha protector. I’m a runaway royal omega with power I swore I’d never use again.

But when the fortress falls under attack, he breaks every rule to protect me.
When our hands touch, it’s like striking a match to a fuse.

Three things happen fast—
He kisses me. My magic answers. And the truth I’ve buried shatters everything.

Because if anyone finds out who I really am, he’ll be forced to choose:
His pack…
Or me.

And if I lose him?
The bond might break more than just my heart—it could start a war.
