Synopsis

She was trained to be his destruction. Fate made her his mate. Crown Prince Knox never expected his new royal guard to be the same woman who tried to infiltrate his court two years ago. He certainly never expected her to be his destined mate. But Aubrey Houston is both—and she hates him almost as much as he wants to resist her. Aubrey has one mission: get close to the crown prince. It should be simple. After all, she's been trained for this since the night Jax, the king's illegitimate son, saved her from the thieves who murdered her family. She owes him everything. What she never counted on was the overwhelming pull she feels toward the prince she's meant to destroy, w But the longer she stays at court, the more her carefully locked memories begin to unravel. And as the truth about that bloody night emerges, Aubrey must choose between the man who molded her and the mate destiny chose for her. In a court where magic seals secrets and mate bonds can be twisted by lies, love might be the deadliest weapon of all.

PROLOGUE

The warm liquid splashes across my face, thick and metallic. Time slows to a cruel crawl as my brother's blood paints my skin crimson. My emerald silk gown – the one he'd teased me about just hours ago – drinks in his blood. I want to scream, to tear the world apart with my voice, to wrench my body into action, but horror has turned my muscles to stone. The late afternoon sun beats down mercilessly, making the bloodshed before me all too vivid.I can only watch, trapped in this moment, as the rogue plunges his blade into my brother again and again. The silver ceremonial crown we'd placed on his head this morning falls into the trampled grass, disappearing among the wildflowers we'd decorated the field with for the ceremony. The metal catches the sunlight one last time before vanishing, like a cruel wink from fate. My whole body trembles, fine tremors building into violent shakes as reality crashes through my shock.A piercing scream cuts through the chaos – maybe my own, I can't tell ...

CHAPTER ONE
7 years later"There she goes again, playing warrior while we do real women's work," a maid whispers as she passes the training field, her pristine white apron a stark contrast to my dirt-stained training clothes. The morning sun beats down on my shoulders as I slam my fist into the practice dummy, its worn leather surface telling stories of my daily visits.My enhanced hearing picks up their continued muttering, and I roll my eyes. Being a werewolf has its downsides – like hearing every bit of gossip and judgment thrown my way. But their words bounce off me now, unlike the early days when each whisper felt like a knife. Seven years of this has given me a thick skin.Let them talk. In our world, she-wolves are expected to be docile, to cook and clean, and bear pups. But I couldn't care less about their precious traditions. Every punch, every kick, every moment of training brings me closer to my real purpose – finding the bastards who murdered my family and watching the light fade from

CHAPTER TWO
JAXMy gaze lingers on the heavy oak doorway where Aubrey just left, a cold smile playing on my lips as the echo of her footsteps fades down the corridor. I return to my seat behind my desk, the leather chair creaking beneath me, and Avery takes her place back on my lap, the silk of her dress rustling as she pushes it up until her bare core meets my dick. Sly witch. I smirk at her boldness, the familiar heat of her body igniting my own.Her delicate fingers thread through my hair, nails scraping lightly against my scalp. "The poor girl adores you, worships you because she believes you're her savior," she says, her meek voice filling the sunlit office as she slowly grinds her waist against my hardening length. Every movement sends sparks of pleasure through me, my dick pulsing in response."Aren't I?" I ask, sliding my hands beneath the bunched fabric of her dress, savoring the smooth warmth of her thighs as I expose them to my hungry gaze."You are... but we both know how that was pos

CHAPTER THREE
AUDREYA triumphant smile spreads across my face as I clutch my new uniform to my chest, the fabric still crisp and pristine. Six months of brutal training, countless tests, and ruthless competition have led to this moment. Every bruise, every sleepless night, every drop of sweat - all worth it knowing Prince Jax would be proud. Though I haven't seen him since that day in his office, surely he'll acknowledge my achievement now that I've secured my position as Prince Knox's personal guard.I'm heading back to my quarters in the royal palace, eager to change and assume my post, when the morning breeze shifts. A scent hits me - cedar and storm rain - so powerful it stops me mid-stride. It slams into my senses, making my knees weak. Aria immediately goes wild beneath my skin, clawing and howling in recognition. No!I already feel the word forming on Aria's tongue, the revelation I've been dreading, when a deep baritone voice behind me speaks it into existence."Mate." The word caresses do

CHAPTER FOUR
KNOXI glare at my mate, my mind struggling to accept that she's the one from that fateful night. The conversation with Noah from a few minutes ago echoes in my thoughts a stark reminder of how quickly life can change. Just hours ago, I'd returned from the royal elite warrior camp, completely unaware my world was about to be turned upside down.A few minutes ago...The castle gates loom before me, their ancient iron wrought into intricate designs that cast dancing shadows across the cobblestone path. My polished black boots click against the stone with each step, the sound mixing with the gentle morning breeze that carries the scent of home. The late morning sun bathes the courtyard in a golden glow, catching on the elaborate gold embroidery adorning my fitted navy blue military jacket. Each thread had been carefully sewn to denote my royal status, though the jacket now bears the welcome wear of intense training.I inhale deeply, letting the familiar scents wash over me - the sweet pe

CHAPTER FIVE
AUDREY The thought of rejecting him doesn’t feel so outrageous right now as we glare at one another—not after what he did. My wolf whimpers at the thought, but I silence her. We don't need someone as shallow as Knox in our life, mate or not."Hold up there, wild child," Aria's voice echoes in my head, my wolf trying to be the voice of reason. "Yes, I admit our mate was a jackass that night, but rejection? That's a bit extreme, don't you think?""Extreme?" I whisper back through our mental link, my hands clenching into fists. "How about the fact that he's suspected of being behind the massacre of our pack? Of Mom, Dad, and James?" My voice cracks on my brother's name. Even though the details of that bloody day are frustratingly fuzzy in my mind – the ache of loss still burns fresh. The idea that my mate, my supposed other half, might have orchestrated their deaths... it feels like someone's twisting a knife in my chest."He doesn't deserve us," I continue. "And besides, how am I supp

CHAPTER SIX
I drop onto my bed with a heavy sigh, sinking into the plush mattress as my eyes trace the intricate crown molding on the ceiling. The evening shadows dance across the walls, matching the chaos in my mind as I wrestle with the impossible revelation that Prince Knox - my target - is my fated mate. My fingers absently twist the silver pendant at my throat, a nervous habit I've never been able to break."You're acting like finding your mate is the end of the world," Aria's voice cuts through my thoughts, sharp with disbelief.I mentally roll my eyes, frustration building in my chest at her willful ignorance. "In case you've forgotten, we're here on Jax's orders. Having Knox as a mate doesn't just complicate the mission - it could destroy everything.""By the Moon's blood, not everything is about Jax!" Aria's voice rises with unmistakable anger. "Face it - you're freaking out about this fucking mission because you've got feelings for him. That's it. That's the only reason." The words hit

CHAPTER SEVEN
The cool night breeze carries the scent of moonflowers and jasmine across the castle grounds, tugging at the loose strands of hair that have escaped my upswept style. I silently thank Queen Grace for taking charge of my preparation for tonight. Her maids had practically scrubbed me raw in the bath, following it with layers of scented oils that matched the vanilla-infused bath water. The scent clings to my skin even now, subtle but unmistakable.The gown they dressed me in takes my breath away every time I catch my reflection in the crystal glasses dotting the outdoor tables. It's a midnight blue silk that shifts like liquid starlight with every movement, the fabric gathering at my waist before flowing out in ethereal layers perfect for an evening under the open sky. After years of practical clothing since losing my family, wearing something so elegant feels almost forbidden.

CHAPTER EIGHT
KNOXI storm into my quarters, slamming the door hard enough to rattle the ancient wood. My blood boils at my father's latest demand. He can't be fucking serious."Oh, but he is," my wolf rumbles, smug satisfaction dripping from every word. "And I agree with him completely. Audrey should move into our quarters. The sooner, the better."If I could manifest this bastard part of myself right now, I'd punch him in his fucking face."You just want to fuck her," I accuse."No... Yes." A pause. *"Both."I can't help but let out a dark chuckle at his honesty.

CHAPTER NINE
AUBREY"No one," I manage, my heart threatening to burst from my chest."Didn't seem like that." Knox moves toward me with predatory grace, each step forcing me back until cold stone meets my spine. His scent - pine needles and winter storms - overwhelms my senses until I can barely think straight."I talk to myself sometimes." The lie tastes weak even to me."Is that so, little wolf?" He plants his hand on the wall beside my head, effectively caging me between solid stone and his overwhelming presence. The heat radiating off his body makes my skin tingle.I nod, not trusting my voice, as I try desperately to ignore how perfectly I'd fit against his chest."If that's all, Your Gra
