Once Upon a Full Moon
After my father's Beta killed him, I ran away and lived my life as a human. It wasn't much, but my life was my own and I liked it that way.
Until one night, when I decide to take a shortcut through wolf territory and I'm captured. Expecting to go to the dungeon, the Alpha presents me as a potential mate to the mysterious and reportedly cruel Lycan King, Bowden.
He takes me from my home and brings me to his kingdom where I'm expected to live as his mate. A mate he doesn't even want.
I didn't sign up for this life. I don't want any of it. Least of all to be some king's dutiful and submissive mate. I'm just waiting, biding my time, until I can run away and join the human world again.

"You know what…I'm done. I'm leaving
Bowden's eyebrows pull up in amusement. "Are you now?”
"Yes. Try to stop me.”
He stands aside. "I won't stop you. Go. Goddess knows, I could use a little peace and quiet." I start to leave, but before I even reach the door he calls out. "Oswald!”
The guard opens the door without any delay. "See the queen to her room and lock her in for the night," Bowden orders.
"I thought you said you wouldn't stop me." I spin around and glare at Bowden, furious with him for changing his mind.
"I won't…but Oswald made no such promises." The king nods at the guard who simply steps outside and closes the door behind him again. "Don't play games with me, little wild child. I am far more experienced than you'll ever be, and this is a game you'll never win. You are mine, and you are going nowhere.”
