A brutal rogue and vampire attack leaves the newly appointed Alpha Helios on the brink of death, his body rejecting every attempt to save him. When the eccentric pack healer reveals that only the Alpha’s fated mate can heal him, the entire pack is stunned, because Helios had claimed he had no mate. Timid yet determined, Starlight steps forward, shocking everyone with her ethereal beauty and the truth they refused to see. She gives her blood to save the mate who tormented her, only to fall into a coma herself. As Helios recovers, he is forced to confront the bond he tried to deny. Watching over Starlight, he realizes the unbearable truth. He doesn’t just need her to live; he craves her in ways he never imagined. His wolf, once cold and indifferent, now growls with possessiveness at the sight of her. But Starlight is no longer the weak omega he scorned. She awakens changed, stronger. And she is not so easily won. Determined to make him suffer as she once did, she flips their dynamic, forcing the proud Alpha to submit to her terms. No mate bond, no consummation, until she decides he’s earned it. For the first time in his life, Helios, the dominant Alpha, is at the mercy of the omega he once rejected. And he will do anything to make her his. This is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers werewolf romance where roles are reversed, and the strongest Alpha finds himself bowing before the mate he once discarded.
View MoreHelios’s POVI could detect the scent of deceit lingering in the air before Hutchins even spoke. My cousin stood to the side, his expression carefully neutral, but I wasn’t fooled. The moment I stepped into the gathering hall, I could feel the tension, the waiting eyes, the unspoken challenge crackling like a storm about to break. Then, my gaze landed on him. Alpha Mordecai.A towering brute of a man, all brawn and arrogance, his sharp eyes assessing me with an amused glint. He leaned back in his chair, arms draped casually over the sides, a smirk playing on his lips. The room had gone quiet. Too quiet.“You’ve grown soft, Helios,” Mordecai drawled, his voice laced with false sympathy. “Mating an Omega… what a shame.” A low growl rumbled in my chest, but I kept my posture relaxed, my expression unreadable.Mordecai chuckled. “Then again, I suppose it makes se
Star's POV I woke up to the warmth of Helios's body wrapped around mine, his gentle breaths a soothing melody in my ear. For a moment, I forgot about the world outside, about the expectations and responsibilities that weighed on me. All that mattered was the quiet, peaceful moment we shared.As I stirred, Helios's arms tightened around me, holding me close. I felt his lips brush against my shoulder, sending shivers down my spine. It was a gentle, reverent touch, one that spoke volumes about the depth of his emotions.I turned to face him, our eyes meeting in the soft morning light. For an instant, we just looked at each other, the connection between us pulsing like a living thing. Then, Helios smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners, and my heart skipped a beat."Good morning, my love,"he whispered, his voice husky with emotion.My response caught in my th
Helios POV I was on my knees, yet, I had never felt more powerful. Not because I had submitted. No. Because she had chosen me. Because she wanted me here, wanted me suffering for her. And I would. Happily.Every fiber of my being screamed for her. The scent of her heat wrapped around me like a noose, tightening with every breath I took. My muscles ached with restraint, my body shaking with the effort to remain still. But I would not move. Not unless she allowed it.She was toying with me, her fingers running over my skin, her lips grazing my throat, her breath teasing the shell of my ear. She knew exactly what she was doing, testing my control, pushing me to the brink of madness. And I loved it.I had spent my life in command. Of my pack. Of my warriors. Of my own damn instincts. Yet here, with Star, I had no control. She had taken it, stolen it from me with nothing but her voice, her to
Star’s POVI was slipping. The walls I had built, the control I had wielded with such precision, were crumbling.It had started as a test. A way to remind Helios who held the reins. But ever since I let him mark me, the mate bond had tightened its grip, wrapping around my soul like chains I couldn’t break. Now, I wasn’t sure who was torturing whom.Helios stood before me, his chest rising and falling with slow, controlled breaths. His golden eyes burned with restraint, with hunger, with something far more dangerous. Something that made my pulse stutter and my skin prickle with anticipation.Between us, an electric energy pulsed. "You’re shaking," he murmured, his voice low, and rough. I clenched my fists. "No, I’m not." That was a lie. Helios took a single step closer, and I didn’t move away.I should have reminded him of his place, of the dynamic I had set. B
Star’s POVThere was a fire crackling softly in the hearth, but the warmth did little to thaw the tension humming between us. I sat on the edge of the bed, fingers tightening around the silken sheets, my mind waging war against my own desires.Helios stood before me, shirtless, the mark on his neck an unmistakable reminder of my claim on him. His golden eyes, molten with longing, locked onto mine, but he didn't move, didn't dare reach for me without my command. That was how well I had trained him. But tonight... tonight was different.The mate bond pulsed between us, palpable and almost suffocating. Every breath I took was filled with his scent, cedarwood and musk, laced with something darker, and wilder. The very thing I had spent so long resisting. My nails dug into my palm as my body betrayed me, heat pooling in my core.I should push him away and remind him of his place. Yet, when I
Helios POV I don’t know how much more of this I can take. She’s playing with fire, and she knows it.The taste of her still lingers on my lips, a cruel reminder of what I can’t have. My chest rises and falls in heavy breaths, body coiled tight with unrelieved tension.Star watches me, golden eyes gleaming in amusement. She’s enjoying this, enjoying my torment. And I… gods help me, I crave it.I should be furious. I should be demanding more. But no. My body wants to obey, to kneel, to take whatever scraps she’s willing to give. I’ve never felt this way before. Never been denied. Never been forced to wait.She has undone me in ways no one else ever could. And she’s still not done with me yet. She leans forward, pressing a single finger to my lips. A warning. A command. "Don’t speak." I swallow hard, nodding, though my pulse is hammering.
Unknown POVThe rumors had spread like wildfire. An Alpha, once feared, once untouchable, now bending to the will of an omega. To the outside world, it was disgraceful.Helios, the mighty, had become a henpecked mate. His strength, his command, his dominance, all of it, tamed by a runt. And so, the challenge came.A band of rogues, battle-hardened and vicious, gathered at the pack’s border. Their leader, a towering brute named Varkus, sneered as he and his warriors crossed into Moonlit Pack territory. They expected a fight. They expected Helios to be weak. What they did not expect, was the devastation that awaited them.A ripple of unease spread through the pack as the alarm sounded. Warriors rushed to the perimeter, shifting into battle-ready stances, their hackles raised as they watched the rogues approach.But no one moved. They were waiting. Waiting for th
Helios’ POVStar gave me permission. Not to take. To receive. And that difference made my entire body shudder with reverence.I had imagined marking her a thousand times before I ever realized what she truly meant to me. Back when I was a fool, when I saw her as less instead of the force she was. I had thought of claiming her as my right, of sinking my fangs into her skin like she was mine to own.But now? She wasn’t mine. Instead, I was hers. And as I held myself back, aching, shaking, trembling with the sheer weight of her gift, I realized I had never truly craved anything until now.Her throat was bared to me, delicate and strong, a contradiction just like her. The spot between her neck and shoulder was untouched, a canvas left pristine, waiting for the mark that would bind her to no one else but me.I didn’t deserve it. Yet she allowed it. A privilege. A v
Helios’s POVThe taste of her was still on my lips. I had thought her punishments were unbearable, being forced to kneel, to watch, to ache without relief. But now, her rewards were worse. Because they were fleeting.She had kissed me. Let me touch her, however briefly. And then, just as I was drowning in her, she had pulled away. Now, as I sat on the edge of the bed, watching her undress for the night, my entire body was locked in tension.Her nightgown slipped down her shoulders in a slow, unhurried motion. My breathing turned shallow. She wasn’t doing it for me. Not in the way a mate might tease her bonded partner. No, this was something else. A lesson. A test."Lie back," she murmured, not sparing me a glance. I obeyed immediately, moving to the pillows, my arms resting at my sides. She turned then, her eyes dragging over my body, and something dark curled in my gut. The hun
Starlight’s POVI’d always dreamed of finding my mate. Not because I thought I deserved love, but because, for once, I wanted to feel like I belonged. That there was someone, just one person in this whole world, who would see me as more than the Moonlit Pack’s worthless runt. I should have known better.The moment I stepped into the grand hall for the Alpha’s coming-of-age ceremony, my heart clenched. A strange pull wrapped around me, tightening like an invisible chain, dragging me toward the one person I never wanted to be near.Helios. The son of the former Alpha. The strongest warrior in the pack. My tormentor. And now, my mate.I had no time to process the shock before his icy golden eyes locked onto mine. I shivered under the weight of his gaze, my breath hitching as his expression twisted into something ugly, disgust.“You?” His voice cut through the chatter in the room, laced with disbelief and simmering rage. The room fell silent. I felt every gaze turn toward me, felt the sne...
