Ephesians Chapter 4 King James Version Novels & Stories

Lyra Voss is a curse-born Omega in the Ashcroft Pack, blamed for her parents' deaths, cast out by the only family she had left, and carrying a secret she doesn’t yet understand. She has silver eyes that nobody can explain and a bloodline everyone believes is extinct. King Jasper Vael has spent his life building a kingdom on iron and silence. He has never been shaken. Not until the night the mate bond snapped into place in the middle of a public ceremony linking him to an Omega cursed with the blood of those who destroy. He rejected her immediately. Completely. Publicly. He has been looking for her ever since. Now Lyra is pregnant, cast out, and running from rogues when a rival Alpha finds her at his border and takes her in without asking questions, she is not ready to answer. She has twin daughters, no pack, no protection and no idea that the Lycan King’s most trusted Beta has been feeding information to the enemy for years or that a silver-laced poison is slowly killing Caspian’s mother and no healer in any pack can stop it. Except the last living descendant of the Moonborn Healers. The girl he called an insult. The woman who survived him. The mate he needs to beg. Some bloodlines cannot stay buried. Some bonds cannot be broken. And some kings must choose between the throne they built and the woman the moon chose for them.

I was sold to the Devil. Rider Thorne. The Alpha King. A man whose name alone makes grown wolves tremble. My stepfather cleared his gambling debts by trading my life for a stack of cash, handing me over with a single, chilling instruction: Give the King an heir, and you go free. I accepted my fate. I prepared to be nothing more than a vessel, a temporary fixture in his cold, luxurious prison. I told myself I could survive his cruelty, his indifference, and his icy glare. But the moment he walked into the room, the universe played a cruel joke. The scent of rain and dark chocolate. Mate. The cruelest Alpha of all time is my soulmate. The sad part? He doesn't know. Or worse—he doesn't care. To him, I am just a tool. A breeder to secure his lineage before he discards me like trash. Heartbroken and realizing he will never look at me with love, I made a choice. I will give him what he bought, but he will never have my heart. But when I discover I’m carrying not just one heir, but three, and that my life is in danger, I did the unthinkable. I ran. Now, the Alpha King is tearing the world apart to find me. He realizes too late that the "tool" he bought was the other half of his soul. But he’s not chasing a submissive girl anymore. He’s chasing a mother protecting her cubs. Run, Bailey. Run.
