My breath caught in my throat as I watched my husband kiss another woman. “You’re my mate, Sadie,” he whispered, cradling her face. “Nothing will ever change.” “You married that human.” “I had no choice, baby.” My father traded me away. My fiancé abandoned me. And barely an hour after our wedding, my husband made it painfully clear that I was nothing more than a political bargain. Josie’s future is destroyed when she’s forced into an arranged marriage with the infamous Lycan King, a man who despises humans and is hopelessly devoted to his fated mate. Ronan never wanted a human wife. Josie never wanted a husband who would never choose her. But as betrayal, political conspiracies, and an enemy threatens them, the line between duty and desire begins to blur. Fate chose Sadie. His pack chose Josie. In the end, Ronan will have to choose for himself.
