The Alpha’s Broken Mate

di Tessa Lake (Autore)

Tessa Lake, 2025

He's the monster other Alphas fear. She's the girl who should've been his weakness. Together, they're about to break every rule that was supposed to keep them apart. They warned me about Alpha Kade the second we crossed into Shadowpine territory. "Don't look him in the eye." "Don't speak unless he asks." "And whatever you do, don't let him catch your scent." Too late. I felt it the moment our car hit his land—this pull, this ache, like my soul recognized something my brain couldn't process. And when those silver eyes locked on mine through the crowd? When that low growl rumbled from his chest? Yeah. I was screwed. Here's what nobody tells you about fated mates: sometimes the Moon Goddess has a sick sense of humor. Because Kade isn't just any Alpha. He's the one they whisper about. The one whose first mate died in his arms five years ago, the one who hasn't shifted since, the one whose wolf is supposedly so massive, so wrong, that even his own pack fears what he's become. And me? I'm seventeen. Trained to fight since I was twelve because my mom didn't get that chance. I've got exactly twenty-three days until my eighteenth birthday, until I can officially claim my mate. Twenty-three days of living under the same roof as a man who looks at me like I'm salvation and damnation wrapped in one. Twenty-three days of pretending I don't feel the heat of his stare. Of ignoring how his hands clench every time another male gets too close. Of acting like I don't hear him pacing outside my bedroom door at 3 AM, fighting his wolf's need to claim what's his. But there's more to this than some cosmic second-chance romance. My birthday isn't just any night—it's the Blood Moon. The same Blood Moon that took his first mate. The same night that's whispered about in our pack's oldest stories, when the barriers between worlds grow thin and ancient powers wake up hungry. And Kade? That secret he's been hiding, the one that makes him stronger and faster than any Alpha should be? It's connected to me. To my bloodline. To whatever the hell is supposed to happen when the Blood Moon rises. Our old Alpha is hunting us—he wants me back and he's not asking nicely. Rogues are circling the territory like they know something's coming. And Kade's pack is starting to ask questions about why their broken Alpha suddenly seems... alive again. Everyone keeps telling me to stay away from him. That he's dangerous. Damaged. That a mate bond this intense will consume me. But what they don't understand is that I've been fighting my whole life. And I'm done running. This isn't your average fated mates story. This is what happens when the broken Alpha stops playing nice, the warrior girl stops pretending she's not hungry for him too, and fate decides to detonate a bomb right in the middle of their carefully controlled world. Buckle up. It's gonna be a filthy, feral, absolutely unhinged ride.
