(TRIGGER WARNING: DARK THEMES AND MATURE CONTENT)


Imagine being a powerless witch, the lowest of the supernatural food chain, when you're from a bloodline of some of the most powerful witches in the planet. 


Yeah. Tragic.


But now on top of that, imagine finding out that you're the fated mate of some cold, ruthless Alpha King who's rumored to bath in the blood of his enemies and eat little witches for dinner. That's just bad luck at this point.



But it's the life of Odessa Pierce.

–––––

In a modern Earth torn by a century long war between the werewolves and witches, with humans stuck in the middle, Odessa Pierce's life is changed forever. 


She's unexpectedly chosen by the Alpha King of the North American region himself to be his BRIDE to seal a "truce".
 

However, in a shocking twist, she discovers that she's mated to the ruthless Alpha King and now has to navigate her growing feelings for a man she thought she'd hate, while still trying to survive in a world that's out to eliminate her kind. 


As ancient prophecies and dangerous enemies arise, will she be able to pierce through the dark veil clouding the Alpha King's heart and make him accept her? Or will their forbidden romance ultimately crumble under the brunt of the secrets and 
revelations that begin sprouting? And what will be her role in this never-ending war? 



Follow Odessa and Kaelos in a dark, delicious ride filled with magic, lust, blood, and the kind of chaos only fate can create.

I felt caged. I felt like the gods had dealt me a fate that I definitely didn't deserve.


"Odessa..." Kaelos wrapped his hand around my wrist, causing me to shiver a bit. 


But then I brought my gaze to him and watched as he got on his feet as well, his cologne and the shampoo still lingering on his hair grounding me for a moment.


"You don't have to handle any of this alone. That's why I'm your mate. Your husband." He whispered, bringing his hands to my face and cupping it gently.
