My Tormentor, My Mate, My Alpha

I expected to be terrified of him.
I was intended to despise him.
Nonetheless, destiny had other ideas.

My existence broke overnight, and I was forced into the merciless hands of the most hated Alpha in the realm, Dante Blackwood. Cold, vicious, and absolutely domineering, he made it plain that I was just a piece in his cruel universe.

Still, our relationship reveals a different picture.

I should not long for the one who broke me. Neither should I feel this strong connection every time he snarls my name nor should I quiver at his touch. Though destiny has bonded us together as mates, he is my tormentor, prisoner, and main adversary.

I have to choose whether to fight against the mate link or submit to the darkness of the Alpha who was never intended to be mine while conflict is building and secrets are breaking.

In a society of power, passion, and treachery, love might be the most perilous game available.
