Rejected by The Alpha, Claimed Lycan King: Bloodline She Was Never Told Had

She was never supposed to matter. He rejected her to save his throne. Neither of them knew what she really was.Elena Voss has spent her whole life apologizing for existing. Omega-ranked, overlooked, and marked by a birthmark she was taught to hide since she was six years old, she walks into her binding ceremony with one small, fragile hope - that for once, she might matter to someone.For four seconds, she does.Then Kaelen Ashworth - the Lycan King, the strongest bloodline in the Northern Territories, a man who watched his own father die at the hands of someone he trusted - rejects the bond in front of both packs. Publicly. Coldly. Because wanting her terrifies him more than losing her ever could.Exiled and alone in rogue territory, Elena starts noticing things about herself she can't explain. Wounds that heal too fast. Instincts that shouldn't exist. A power waking up beneath her skin that her own cousin, the Alpha who exiled her, seems desperate to keep buried.And somewhere behind her, watching from a distance he swore he'd never cross, the king who threw her away can't stop feeling everything she feels - every fear, every flare of power, every moment she almost doesn't survive.He built his reign on the belief that love makes a king weak.She's about to prove him wrong, whether he's ready or not.
