No woman has ever been allowed into the King's army before but Caterina is determined to prove she is as good a warrior as any of the men, dressing up as a boy and matching off to camp to fight in her father's stead. She won't let him go to war with a limp. What she doesn't expect is to find out she has a second chance mate, after the first one, who happens to be the king's son and General of the army, rejected her.

I said I want you to come with me and nothing will stand in the way of that."I shake my head, unable to comprehend this."Do you have any idea how crazy this is? My life is already in danger as it is, I don't appreciate you trying to worsen the odds of my survival..." I blurt out, regretting the words the moment they leave my mouth. I pray he doesn't read anything into it, but goddess, does he have a keen mind. He does read into it.He moves closer to me, a hint of worry in his face."What do you mean your life is in danger?""We are not here to party are we? we are preparing for battle, which puts my life in danger, I should think.""I thought it would be clear by now that I don't want to hurt you. You are my mate, reason why I want you on my side before I attack. I can't attack with you here. You are delaying my progress.""I came here to fight you, and I will. De
Alejandro POVIn the werewolf world, I earned myself a name, and far from a good one. I appear to be crazy and power hungry in the eyes of many wolves, but not many know my true motivation so I can careless about what sh*tty stuff has been made up over the years about me.I have tried to attack shadow pack not because I want to sit on that pile of rusty steel they call a throne, but because these wolves came out of nowhere when I was a baby and murdered my entire family.It is revenge I seek, not glory. And I will only rest when the last one of those wolves is dead.When I prepared to attack the pack this time, I did it in such a way there would be no chance of losing on my side. Last time I lost because I made the same mistake my parents made, of fighting like rogues, attacking blindly without order or plan whatsoever.But now, I adopted my enemy's style of fighting, not to mention I recently got my Lycan.It is what made it possible for me to sneak in the enemy camp and count all t
Thousands of Questions whirl in my mind as I stare at the most famous person in the werewolf community.Alejandro.No matter how much I turn the situation over in my head, it doesn't make sense. What was the enemy doing in our camp yesterday, and why did he never kill me?There was a chance he spared my life because of the mate bond, but the same couldn't be said for Dane. He was the enemy and nothing stood in the way of killing him.Hence, we are not with Dane now.I remember the words Alejandro uttered just before killing Dane;'How dare you touch my mate! No one touches my mate and gets away with it!'What a lying piece of sh*t. If it weren't for the mate bond, I would hate him for sure, but right now my emotions are torn between resenting him and wanting to jump into bed with him.We approach the enemy as close as possible, mindful to keep a safe distance between us."Now let's not waste time and get on with this. Seeing as you agreed to meet with us, I would assume you are ready
Ben's POV"Normally, I would have your brat punished, but I don't need to do that now. I will alert my son at once, as soon as he opens his mind link and make sure she fights in the front lines... silence!" The Alpha King raises a hand, making me choke on my protest. Then he continues with a smirk, clearly enjoying all this. "That place is not for kids. Your daughter will cause you trouble no more, old man. And if by some miracle, she survives, she will make a great candidate for one of my hunts. The crime has to be paid, one way or another."My head spins at this response. I've always known that one of the Alpha King's finer qualities were reasonable judgement, which is what prompted me to report my problem to him, but I've found out his cruelty knows no boundaries."Please, Alpha," I fall to my knees before him. "She's just a little girl. She probably thought it would be fun to run around with the soldiers, unaware of the dangers that await her.""I've spoken. We are done here! Go h
I pick myself up shakily, wondering if this is a dream. Second chance mate? For me? That isn't a common occurrence. I would have felt very ecstatic had it not been for the murder I just witnessed. After what I've seen take place seconds ago, all I can think of is that my second mate is heartless. The Alpha King has put me through so much trauma with his strange hobbies, and I know I don't need a mate like that. There's not much difference between this man and the Alpha King if he kills other wolves without proper reason. In my opinion, there was no need to kill Dane, a mere warning would have sufficed. One look at this man and anyone would run in the opposite direction, and Dane wouldn't have dared to cross him. I stand there awkwardly, while he stares at me, his expression one of great curiosity. I understand why immediately. He must be asking himself why the goddess decided to play such a joke on him this fine night. "You are a boy. " He utters. It is not a question so
When you suddenly find yourself in a dangerous situation, your brain seems to split into two parts; the part that's actually going through the situation, and the part that stands back, trying to understand what's happening. Those parts don’t always share information with each other, so it takes me a moment to focus on the words of the man now taking a few steps toward me. "Do you need help coming out? I’ll gladly help. Let’s not waste time." My mouth goes dry, and I can barely talk, my head growing hot. "What are you going to do? Expose me to the commander?" He gives a snort, remaining annoyingly calm. "Expose you? No. What fun would that be?" I give him a quick glance and frown. "What are you planning to do, then?" "I asked you to come out of there." His tone starts to grow icy. "Hurry, before the Prince notices my absence!" "If you don’t plan on exposing me, why don’t you just go back and pretend you never saw anything?" Then a new thought occurs to me. What if Dane isn't t
Ben's POVMy wolf informs me that something is not right the moment I open my eyes. He didn't need to do that, considering the day is already bright and the sun is up, filtering into the room through the curtains on the window.I needed to wake up before the crack of dawn, but somehow, I didn't.So unusual. I've never slept in when I meant to wake up before, which is why the feeling that something is not right keeps growing by the second.Am I going to be beheaded when it's discovered that I was left behind when the rest of the warriors left to defend the kingdom? I pray not. My two kids need me.As I shuffle out of bed, I keep a prayer in my heart: for the goddess to spare my life at least until my daughter Caterina finds her mate. Those can't always be counted on, but it would be better knowing someone will be there to protect her and her little brother. First of all, I have to inform my pups about this. I figure it is better to let them know I am in trouble for neglecting my duty.
"Who the hell is she, anyway, some lowly Omega? I can't even tell her rank!" Dane, one of the Alpha Prince's best friends, comments, and the rest of the men laugh dutifully. I have just come out of the pack library following a mouth watering scent, and guess what? Moon goddess has decided to humiliate me by making me the Alpha Prince's mate. Titus is not just the Alpha Prince. He is heir to the throne. He is general of the pack's army of warriors, and he's never lost a battle. He has the looks of a Greek god, and every unmated girl lies awake at night thinking about him. I am ashamed to admit that I am one of those girls. I've loved him since I was a little girl, but I've never been stupid enough to imagine, even for a moment, that he would ever be mine. And now, as I stand there looking at him, I am kind of embarrassed, like I whined to the moon goddess so she'd make this match. So far, Titus has made no comment about it, just staring at me with a blank expression on his f
