Cursed Lycan's Scarred Mate

"I'll scratch and bite," Vivian warned, meeting the Lycan Alpha's gaze with unwavering confidence.

Ronan smirked, his hand gripping her chin possessively, forcing her to look up at him.

"You'll crawl and beg too," he promised.

After years of fruitless searching, Ronan, the eldest of his brothers, had given up on ever finding his mate. So when he went to confront a trespasser on his land, he was surprised to discover an Omega wolf covered in Wickan magic symbols, barely clinging to life. He was even more shocked when he realized this fragile creature was his mate.

Vivian, rejected by her first mate for failing to conceive a child, was barely tolerated by her family. Known as her father's ultimate disappointment, she could only try in futile attempts to lie with other Alphas by his insistence.

However, after a local coven cursed her, she barely escaped death at the hands of her pack and fled across the river into uncharted territory—land her pack was forbidden from treading upon.

She woke in the company of a gruff Lycan who declared Vivian to be his destined mate despite the curse that was slowly killing her—and him. As Ronan cared for her, Vivian gradually began to trust his intentions.

And when Ronan devised a plan to save Vivian, with the help of another coven, it led them on a path neither had expected but seemed fated to follow. But both Vivian and Ronan were hiding secrets from each other, secrets that threatened the fragile relationship they had begun to build.
