Moon Bride: A Reluctant Wife for the Alpha
"Do you think I would hurt you? You were hand-selected for me by the Goddess."
"I don't know what to think. I have waited the last two years to be claimed by you. I arrive here and I have been essentially ignored!"
He stepped into me, his luminous golden eyes razing me with the stoked flames burning in their depth. "Madison, I want to love you. I have never wanted anything more than to love you!" His words were a fervent plea as he snatched my hand.
"No, you wanted a Bride. A walking womb. Nothing more, nothing less." Ice settled in my chest. I could never love a monster that only wanted me for my ovaries. "So here I am, Husband. A ripe field to plow."
He staggered back, my words cutting him as sharply as any knife. He turned his wounded gaze on me, but I steeled myself. I would not allow myself to believe this could ever be anything more than a business arrangement. I was a means to an end for the Weres. The continuation of their race. A broodmare.
Madison Timms had known she would be a Moon-Bride since the year she turned sixteen. Now she has finally been claimed by her Alpha husband.
When Alpha Xander Cross meets his goddess-blessed mate, he only wants to love her. Regardless of her humanity.
Will his love thaw her icy heart? Or will they be torn apart by the world they are trying to rebuild?
