Introduction

Her back hit the wall, his breath hot against her ear.
“I should hate you,” Laura whispered, though her body trembled at his touch.
Lucian’s hand slid lower, possessive, dangerous. “Then why,” he growled, lips brushing hers, “do you ache for me every time I’m near?”

Once, Laura trusted her mate completely. Until Alpha Lucian chose another woman, shattering her heart. Now she rules as the feared Alpha King—cold, untouchable, except for one weakness: Lucian's five-year-old daughter.

When vampire assassins target her crown, Laura's forced into an impossible alliance with the man who destroyed her. Every mission draws them closer. Every touch reignites the fire she's tried to kill.

Can she resist the mate who burned her once before or will surrendering to him be the deadliest mistake of all?

Chapter 1

CARMILLIA POV

‘’Dad there’s no way I’m going to represent our pack in that gathering and you know that’’ Carmilla yelled at her father throwing tantrums up in the room. Her father’s beta watched the two of them in disgust, if not for her father’s closeness and his position he would have ordered her to be banished from their pack or probably sold her off as a sex slaves.

They all endanger their lives to protect her every single moment, an omega is more powerful than her like she’s damn useless to the pack.

‘’Father, I can’t go don’t you understand my points?’’ I asked in tears welling up in my eyes.

“And im saying you’re the right person to go represent our pack at the coronation; I’m sure you will be fine” he said reassuring with face beaming with smiles but I’m not fully convinced because I’ve a pretty feeling that it’s going to be a bad long teary day for me.

“can’t I go and represent the pack with an omega?” Beta Greg butts in but a glance from my father shut his mouth immediately.

Yeah! I’m damn aware of the hatred he has for me, if there was way for him to eliminate me, he would have done that long time ago but I guess he cares about my father’s happiness so much if not, I would have long e forgotten.

“Lia is going and there’s no objection of any such young lady” my father commanded with his alpha’ voice shaking me up slightly though not slightly because I’m a weakling.

“On one condition alpha” I said with a sly smile. I might not be strong like a princess I should be or as a werewolf but there’s something I have which is intelligence that can’t be beat.

“Are you trying to play games with me?” my dad asked playing with his chin… his eyes were somehow intimidating but I refused to be played.

“You going to hear out my condition or not?” I asked getting impatient and tired of standing on my feet.

“Shoot it out” he said …. “I will go to the coronation if only I’m allowed to attend alone without any escort of any such” I aired out my condition smiling brightly….

I’m quite sure he will accept my condition but that’s just the step one to the main plans because I’ll make sure I wasn’t seen all through the part and boom no stress or insults and I’m back to my pack.

“Why do I feel as if you’ve other interior motive behind this Lia” he asked securitizing his eyes slowly… “I don’t have any ulterior motive dad” I replied simply for him to believe him.

“Fine but go get ready, you will drop at the occasion and later will be picked up once the party is over” he said shushing me away while his beta followed suits.

You know there’s no need to air out your opinion the other time at room” I said gently avoiding his gaze trying to keep my pace fast… he moved closer to me while holding my arm tightly almost crunching my bones, whispering loud enough for me to hear. “I don’t want to be rude princess but watch the way you talk to me or else you might have your bones broken to pieces bit by bits before you get the chance to make a meaningful thing out of your life” He threatened me slowly holding my neck in the process almost choking me on my saliva.

I hurriedly walked away in tears the moments he released his grip on me ‘’ I can never be accepted in my father’s pack all because I’m weak”. I walked to my room shedding tears almost causing an ocean there; I face assaults from people that I’m meant to rule over everyday single day but none was aware to my father because even his beta hates my guts so he blocked every access where any complaints came get across to father but I cared less.

I dressed up quickly so as not to keep Greg waiting and getting on his nerves again, no one wants to show me love. My life has been complicated ever since I was born; many of the pack members believe I killed my mother but I also don’t know the truth because I wasn’t in my right state of mind when the incidents happened so I was tagged at the murderer and been treated with disgust and hatred till now. I rushed out of my room to meet the cart already leaving; this is definitely Greg’s order just to humiliate me as usual.

I wasn’t surprised because I’m used to it already, I rolled up my sleeve raising my gown up enough for mud not to splatter across the whole embroider thread and pick to my race immediately just to catch up with them: I stumbled countless time on the ground falling flat to my face but I kept moving. Finally, the cart stopped for me to enter but by now I’m now messy and stinking from mud and sweat but that’s less of my concern I need water to restore my breath or I might lose it completely for real.

Sensing my dilemma, one of the wolves gave me water which I gulped down in a go, secretly stealing glances from Greg to read his mind but I couldn’t. we got to our destination and I got down while looking for a perfect place to change my dress before entering the party which I did.

Acting like a ghost I found a secluded area to sit my butt while watching the events with little or no interest at all. I just want the party to come to an end so I can go home and rest my head while thinking of a way to pay Greg back.

I stood to my feet’s in attempt to go out when I smelled this vanilla scent, I tried ignoring it initially but I got fond of it within seconds that I felt my legs tracing the scent until I bumped my head on a well built muscular chest... ‘My wolf screamed in my head ‘’mate’’.

I snapped my head back to him with face full of smiles but all I saw in his eyes is hatred nothing else. Like a thunderstorm he growled out loudly “I, Alexander Gold alpha of the liming pack and also the seven king of wolf’s kind hereby reject you Carmilla silver as my mate and Luna”

"White wolf! Kill that monster!"
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.
