The Alpha Prince's Secret Mate

"Cody, I lied because my love for you runs deep," he confessed. "But if you truly loved me, you wouldn't have made me suffer through such a long wait." Prince Cody, the epitome of perfection among Lycans and werewolves, concealed a dark truth - he was gay. He hid this to safeguard his position on the throne, unaware that fate had intertwined him with his best friend, Rain. Their bond was tested when Cody turned eighteen and discovered they were destined to be mates, despite Rain's assumed straight orientation. Fear of rejection kept Cody silent about his feelings, and a drunken moment of intimacy led to a rift in their nine-year friendship. Fast forward two years, and they unexpectedly become roommates, with Rain now serving as Cody's bodyguard at school. As they spent more time together, their connection deepened, but Cody uncovered Rain's hidden truth, threatening to shatter their fragile rapport once more. The revelation of Rain's secret sent shockwaves through the kingdom, prompting a rebellion from the werewolf nobility who sought Cody's removal. Despite the turmoil, Rain remained steadfast by Cody's side, willing to risk everything for the man he loved. United, they embarked on a journey to fight for their love and the future of their realm, braving impossible odds and formidable foes. What secret did Rain keep from Cody, and what motivated him to conceal it in the first place? Only time would reveal the answers to these questions as their tale unfolded.
