“Shut up!” his voice roared inside the room as he lifted my collar, pulling me near him. “Are you still gonna lie? I saw you talk to that man—”

Book 2 Of The Reluctant Mate Series

If you have read Book 1, Kidnapped By The Alpha, then Book 2 continues with Hunter & Claire story!

“Get a room, you two!” Kale cried out, interrupting their staring contest.

“Yeah, so I can strangle you while we are in it,” Claire snarled.

“I would be into that…” Hunter smirked.

After being rescued from the council, the thing furthest from her mind was a mate, especially a mate who’s bent on protecting her from herself!

Adeline believed one thing for her entire life. Rafael, the bodyguard who was always at her side, was the safest place she had.
But she was wrong.
On the night her trust shattered, Rafael handed her over to a reality far crueler than betrayal. The man she loved turned into the cold figure who imprisoned her, not out of hatred, but because of a debt from the past.
Adeline’s father had taken something profoundly precious from Rafael. Something that could not be repaid with money, power, or an apology. And because her father refused to return it so easily, Adeline was forced to pay the price with her freedom.
Becoming the captive of the man who once swore to protect her, Adeline is trapped between pain, a love that has not yet died, and dark secrets that slowly come to light. Every glance from Rafael carries resentment. Every touch is a punishment, yet also a reminder of feelings that have not fully faded.
Amid betrayal and painful truths, one question continues to haunt Adeline.
Is she merely a tool for revenge, or the only thing still capable of saving Rafael from destruction?
Because in this game, love is no longer a shield, it is the deadliest weapon of all.

"I rather get dragged in the mud with chains by moving horses or be beaten with a club with nails on it than lose my virginity to you," she spat, looking at him with hate in her eyes, hoping her eyes conveyed the degree of contempt she felt when she spat out the words.

Anger and disbelief flashed in his eyes. She was going to be the first woman that would ever reject him and in such a preposterous manner. He stood up and went over to her while she gummed her back to the wall, having no other room to step back. He gripped her chin with his strong palm, forcing her to look at him, his wicked grey eyes bore into her hazel ones.

"What if it's your only ticket to freedom?"

"As I said, I rather die."

He quickly shoved her onto the bed and she scooted away as he moved toward her. "I am Eros Castillo, leader of the El dragon gang, you dare not reject me, nobody rejects me," he said in a low husky voice, his eyes five shades darker, his countenance grim and dangerous.

He shoved me into the darkness. Hatred and fear were all I could feel. “Let me out, Damon!” I screamed, my voice echoing in the cold, empty room.

He stepped forward, tilting my chin up to meet his steely brown gaze. “No, Athena,” he murmured, his voice dark and final. In a swift movement, I felt the heavy chains snap around my ankle. I kicked, tried to twist free, but he held me firm.

“Please… don’t—” My words choked off as his grip tightened on my jaw, his eyes cold and unyielding. Tears streamed down my face as he leaned closer, his voice a whisper of possession. “You are bound to me, Athena. Your life, your soul, your heart, your body—all mine. The day you were born, your fate was sealed to me…forever.”


Athena loved her freedom, her nights spent dancing and laughing beneath the stars. But one fateful night, everything changed. She sensed a watchful presence, an unseen figure marking her as his own. Desperate to escape, she ran… until she found herself captured and chained to the ruthless alpha king.

When Noémie Rochester wakes up naked in bed with her boss with no recollection of the previous night, she’s more than just shocked. She’s heartbroken.

{Excerpt}
The cold water poured down her naked body and washed away all the evidence of what had happened to her—what he did to her—all night. However, what it couldn't wash away was her aching heart.

The best intentions can go to hell.
I walked into a dark alley with the best of intentions and look where that got me. Drugged, kidnapped and thrown into a world I didn't even know existed.

I saved her… hid her from the world. Camouflaged her from my enemies. For years, I wondered if I did the right thing. Was the family I left her with taking good care of her? When I enter the auction, I get my answer. I never expected to see her big blue eyes again. Never expected for her to be the main attraction. Virgin for sale… highest bidder wins. I had no intention of buying her, but her body called to me. I find myself bidding. Again and again. Until I’m the proud owner of an eighteen-year-old virgin. She thinks I saved her again. She's so wrong. I just threw her to the hungry wolf. I’m going to enjoy breaking her down. Piece by piece. But not before I seek out the family that promised to protect her and get my revenge.

His kiss was warm and wet, and he caressed my lips with his. His big hands ripped off my skirt impatiently as I struggled to get the words "No" from my mouth.
He entered me slowly, and I grabbed him by the shoulder and whispered," It hurts!" The man stopped suddenly and said, "You are really a virgin! You mean- you are...."I was speechless from the pain.
He instantly moved fast and hard. It became rough, it was urgent, and it happened.
I felt a burst of warmth rush through my body, and all my muscles tightened.

"How?"
"Undergoing the rituals. That's the only way, you have no time to think either. The full moon will be up tomorrow midnight, you've got twelve hours to solve all your problems. Are you in?"
"Yes I'm in!" I replied after a cloud of thoughts. To be sincere, my relationship with Otto was drafting apart, I needed some help.

The witches' ritual was meant to drag me into their coven, make me powerless and even worse, break my virginity so I could be rejected by my mate.
There was only one way to get out of all the traps and problems, but which one?
And how? Am I even going to make it through, all alone? Or I'll make more mistakes?

Aria Bennett has one goal,get through high school, keep her head down, and secure a future she can actually afford.

It’s been working so far… until she’s offered a paid tutoring job with a scholarship attached.

She says yes without hesitation.

Then she finds out who she’s tutoring.

Dominic Hayes.

Star quarterback. Top of the social ladder.
And the same person who’s made her life miserable for years.

Dominic doesn’t want her help, and he doesn’t pretend otherwise. He skips sessions, makes sarcastic comments, and does everything he can to get under her skin.

Aria, however, needs the money too badly to quit.

So she stays.

What starts as forced tutoring turns into constant arguments, quiet tension, and moments neither of them quite understands.

Because the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to hold onto the past version of each other, and somewhere along the line, hate stops feeling so simple.

XANDER:

She was everything to me, the very essence of my existence. But then it all fell apart. The night before we were to unite forever, I discovered her betrayal and saw her true colors. Broken, I severed all ties and made her promise to vanish from my life. For two years, she stayed away... until now.

I didn't bother that we were at a party and that people might be looking at us when Amber grabbed me and crushed his lips against mine.

I ground myself on him, feeling him get harder as I moved.

"I should mention... I'm engaged."
Ava Reyes has spent four years doing what she does best — keeping her feelings exactly where they cannot do any damage.
She is twenty-nine, co-owner of a thriving bakery, and hopelessly in love with the one man she has absolutely no business wanting. Marcus Calloway is her best friend's older brother — steady, brilliant, and infuriatingly easy to be near.
When he left for London six years ago, Ava buried her feelings and moved on. Or did a convincing enough impression of it.
Then Marcus comes home. Permanently. And he is engaged. His fiancée, Isabelle Ferreira, is a sharp London solicitor who is warm, intelligent, and impossible to resent. She has done nothing wrong. She deserves everything she has.
Which makes what Ava is beginning to want all the more dangerous. Because the more Ava finds herself near Marcus — at family dinners, in stolen conversations, in the small accidental moments that keep finding them together — the more she notices things she shouldn't. The way he watches her. The way the air shifts between them when no one else is paying attention.
She is not a woman who chases unavailable men. She has a conscience, and it is loud. But she is also a woman who is tired of being careful.
