Defying The Alpha, Falling For His Stepfather

Maureen Atsali Romance

I propped myself up on one arm and looked down at Alpha Aiden, my husband's stepfather.
He was still pinned under my body on the floor, watching me with dark, hungry eyes.
I licked my lips, which were already swollen from his kisses, and ran a hand through my tangled hair. Despite my mess, I felt beautiful. He made me feel beautiful and desired in ways that my mate, Ellis, never could.
I didn't care that what we were doing was very, very wrong.
------
After losing his mate, Alpha Aiden is heartbroken, and on the edge of death, so he appoints his stepson Ellis to be the next leader of the Dark Rising pack.
There is just one problem, Ellis is not exactly alpha material. To secure his place as leader of the pack, Ellis enters into an arranged mating with Cecelia Forge, the eldest daughter of the neighboring pack. A submissive Luna is what Ellis wants, but Cecelia is far from being a woman who simply takes orders.
Promised to an alpha she has never met, only to discover that he is a fiercely ambitious man, Cecelia Forge finds herself a little too intrigued by the alpha's stepfather, Aiden. Even though he is barely a shadow of his former self, Cecelia cannot help but find Aiden entirely alluring.
Will she jeopardize the allegiance that her marriage is meant for?
Should she defy a man as dark and dangerous as Ellis?
Can she overcome her forbidden desires?
