Claimed By The Monster King
"I don't want a mate. I want a slave who knows her place."
Bailey was used to the cruelty. As the unwanted stepsister to the pack’s most vicious triplets, she spent her days scrubbing floors and avoiding their heavy-handed "lessons." But when her eighteenth birthday arrives, she expects the one thing that could save her: a fated mate.
Instead, she gets Hudson. Her stepbrother. Her primary bully. And the man who rejects her in front of the entire pack before the bond can even settle.
Broken and cast out to the servant quarters, Bailey thinks her life is over until the arrival of Hade, the Lycan King. He is cold, ruthless, and looking for a woman who disappeared from his bed months ago after a nameless, moonlit encounter.
He claims her as his Queen in front of the men who broke her, but his touch is a golden cage. When Bailey discovers a horrifying secret—that the King she is starting to love might be the man who ordered her parents' execution—she realizes she can’t stay.
She isn’t just running for her life anymore. She’s running for the two heartbeats growing inside her.
The Lycan King is coming to reclaim his throne, his woman, and the heirs she took from him. And this time, he won’t be asking.
