Mated to the Grumpy Alpha
READING AGE 16+
Alpha Declan Levesque has six weeks to choose a Luna or the Council will choose one for him.
He does not want the one the Moon picked. Ciara Cortez is a human vet tech with a pulse that runs too fast, a grandmother's salt line on every windowsill and no idea what lives on the Ridge above her town. She can't hear the pack. She can't take a hit at the border. And his wolf, Axel, has already decided she is his.
Ciara has a peaceful life waiting. Her best friend Theo has loved her since they were kids, and he is warm, kind and human. All she has to do is say yes. But a grumpy Alpha keeps showing up wherever she is in danger, and every time his hand touches hers, the whole world goes still.
Declan can reject her. He tries. The Moon keeps handing her back.
With a hungry pack of rogues at the fence and a Council elder who will burn the Ridge before he buries another human, Declan must choose between the law he swore to keep and the one woman it was written against.

Worst night of my life, Axel said.
He had been saying it since midnight. I sat in Betsy outside Ciara's house with my eyes on her porch light and let him run through it.
I patrolled the perimeter four times in the damp. I could have been warming her bed instead.
"Her bed isn't on the table,"……
