The Alpha's Borrowed Luna

"Can you stand?" he asks. My legs feel giddy, but I managed to rise with Frost’s hands supporting me. Just then, Kaius takes over. I just realized what had happened. Frost had handed me back to Kaius, and Kaius’s dark eyes had never been darker.
“I liked when you squirmed and writhed below him,” Kaius said, his voice husky. His hands circled around my throat, and my hands trailed his arm. He was naked, and I could feel his thick, hard body.
"Kaius, I don't think I can take another round," I said, my voice small but steady.
His smile held predatory promise. "We'll see about that."
Elowen Thorne is an omega wolf who has survived years of abuse in a brutal pack. Betrayed by her ex-mate, she's stunned when Kaius Valerian, the most feared Alpha in the territory, offers her a six-month contract to pretend as his mate.
Kaius doesn't just want a mate. He wants total submission. He'll use her body however he pleases, taking her roughly and without mercy, making it clear she's nothing more than a possession. Six months. One contract that offers her enslaved mother a chance at freedom - if Elowen survives.
Elowen isn't some submissive victim anymore. If Kaius wants her, he'll have to break through her defenses. She'll fight him every step of the way, even as her body betrays her deepest desires.
When a failed assassination attempt reveals shocking connections between her mother's past and Kaius's family, Elowen must figure out whether Kaius is protecting her for his own gain or because he actually cares for her. In a world where silver blades and bloodshed settle arguments, Elowen discovers that being bound to someone by both a written agreement and a mate mark is far more dangerous than she ever imagined.
