Abandoned by the Alpha, I Became the Lycan King's Mate

Margaret has spent her entire life in the shadow of her younger sister Elizabeth. Born just seconds apart, she was always expected to yield, to sacrifice, to make herself small so others could shine. When the Alpha of her pack chooses Elizabeth over her, Margaret is publicly rejected and cast aside on the same day. Broken and humiliated, Margaret flees to the edges of pack territory where no one expects to find anything worth saving. Instead, she stumbles into the domain of the Lycan King -- a figure spoken of only in hushed warnings. He is ancient, powerful, and feared by every wolf alive. Yet the moment his eyes meet hers, he claims her as his own without hesitation. Now elevated from a discarded omega to the mate of the most powerful creature in existence, Margaret finds herself caught between two worlds. Her old pack wants her back for political gain, and Elizabeth will stop at nothing to reclaim what she believes is rightfully hers. But the Lycan King does not share, and he does not forgive. Can Margaret embrace the power she was always meant to carry, or will the ghosts of her past destroy the future she never dared to imagine?
