The Harvested Mate

They didn't choose her to be his queen; they built her to be his battery.

When Alpha Darius slashed his palm and bled their "destined" bond into the dirt, he thought he was casting out a worthless, broken pariah. Instead, he shattered the cage holding back the legendary White Wolf and exposed a sickening, unforgivable truth. Elowen's entire existence was a chemically engineered trap, a biological drain built to harvest her apocalyptic power so Darius's lineage could rule without burning alive. Now, as Darius spirals into the rabid, frantic withdrawal of a beast starving for its stolen source, Elowen returns to the supernatural underworld draped in silk and cold vengeance.

Her volatile power immediately ensnares Alistair Draven, the ruthless, iron-fisted Alpha King. Alistair offers sanctuary, but every searing touch is a lethal tightrope walk. Descended from the executioners who slaughtered her ancestors and bound by a royal curse that requires a White Wolf to keep him from descending into absolute madness, Alistair's protection feels dangerously like a second cage.

Trapped between an ex-mate's parasite-driven hunger and a ruthless King whose very sanity demands her blood, Elowen faces a razor-thin choice: remain someone else's medicine, or burn their entire empire to the ground to claim her own crown.
