THE BETA IS MINE

Alia, a second-born Alpha Female, has waited her whole life for her mate. But at the Claiming Ball, the intoxicating scent of her destined partner leads to a shocking betrayal. He claims another! Now, this fierce Alpha must navigate a world of shifting loyalties, hidden truths, and a mate who seems determined to push her away. Can she reclaim what's hers, or is she destined to lose the Beta she knows is made for her?

The grand ballroom shimmered under the opulent chandeliers, a dazzling display of wealth and power. Yet, for Alia Williamson, it felt like a cage. Every breath was a struggle against the overwhelming pheromones of countless Alphas and Alpha Females, all vying for attention.

She’d come with her brother, Alpha Caspian, to the Claiming Ball, a spectacle she’d always viewed with detached curiosity. Until now. A scent, an intoxicating blend of wild forest, cut wood, and mint, had sliced through the sensory chaos, freezing her in place. Her mate. He was here.

Her eyes found him across the crowded room, a towering figure in black, his gaze locked onto hers. The mate bond snapped into place, a jolt of pure connection. Then, a flicker of something she couldn’t decipher in his obsidian eyes, and he turned away, striding towards a man holding lists for the Claiming. A cold dread seeped into her bones. He was listing his name. Not for her.
