Being fated to three Alphas should have made her the most blessed she-wolf in the packs.

Instead, it made her their game.

One toyed with her life.
One pretended to love her.
One tried to control her power.

But when betrayal shatters her heart, she leaves them all behind.

Except... one Alpha refuses to let her escape.

Because to him, she was never a pawn.

She was always his mate.

The mate he had waited...hundreds of years for.

Valerie Jude was once the beloved daughter of the pack’s greatest warrior, until her father was executed for a crime he swore he never committed.

Branded as a traitor’s daughter, she was stripped of her status and forced into slavery within the very pack her father once protected.

For eight years, Valerie lived in silence, enduring humiliation, beatings, and hunger in the shadows of the pack house.

Stripped of dignity, forced to survive as a slave, she learned one rule:

.....endure, or die.

Even her wolf became a secret she could never reveal.

Because the truth behind her father’s death was more dangerous than she ever imagined.

Days before the future alpha’s ascension, Valerie stumbles upon a conversation she was never meant to hear.

A sick bet.
A calculated betrayal.
And a truth that shatters her remaining hope.

The man she trusted is not her savior, but one of her tormentors.
The alpha who ruined her life… is her fated mate.

To him, the sacred mate bond is not a blessing, it is a punishment.

A humiliation he plans to repay with cruelty, rejection, and destruction.

To the others, Valerie is nothing more than a prize to be used and discarded.

But fate was never done with her.

As three alphas close in on her, each with their own twisted intentions or dark desires, Valerie stands at the edge of something far more dangerous than suffering.

The awakening of the wolf she was forced to silence.

When the truth behind her father’s execution begins to surface, and her wolf stirs once more,

the three alphas will learn too late:

The girl they broke was never weak.

And the mate they planned to destroy…

Was never meant to kneel!!!!!

I could hear both cheers and arguments from my office.


At first I thought it was coming from the training grounds, but I realized that it was happening at the front door.


I wondered what had happened to cause such chaos, so I left the document I was working on and headed there to check.


Before I got near the front hall, that familiar sweet scent hit me like a tone of bricks and my heart pounded with joy.


Valerie was back. She had come back safely.


I couldn't believe it and couldn't wait to see her.


I hastened my steps but before I could walk out of the door, I heard her argument with Innocent.


Innocent was complaining about the warriors getting hurt during the mission, while Valerie reiterated that the injuries were unavoidable.


I didn't want to get involved in their usual arguments, but I had to step in eventually. Otherwise, the deadlock would never be broken.


"What's happening here?" I asked as soon as I got close.
