The Alpha's Bound Mate: A Forced Proximity Werewolf Romance

She was invisible. He was searching. And the bond between them was stolen before it could begin. Rivera Venn has spent eight years loving Alpha Kaelan Ashworth from the shadows—a quiet baker content to remain unseen, convinced she'd never be more than the girl who makes strawberry cakes in the pack house kitchen. When Kaelan returns home with his beautiful mate from a former enemy pack, Rivera tells herself she's happy for him. She tells herself the ache in her chest is nothing. She's wrong about everything. The moment Kaelan catches Rivera's scent—strawberries and vanilla, intoxicating and undeniable—his world fractures. His wolf, who should be devoted to his mate, begins to crave someone else. Something is terribly wrong with his bond, and when a witch reveals the devastating truth, Kaelan realizes he's been living a lie crafted from blood magic and deception. Rivera is his true mate. She always has been. But claiming her could shatter a fragile peace treaty and plunge two packs into brutal war. Rejecting her could destroy them both. And the false mate who refuses to let go has secrets that run deeper than anyone suspects—secrets that could cost Rivera everything, including her life. When magic, politics, and destiny collide, can a love strong enough to break dark spells survive the wars that follow?
