Alpha King’s Forbidden Mate - A Forbidden Love Royal Court Werewolf Shifter Romance #974684

He's the most powerful King in werewolf history. She's the secret everyone wants to bury. Their love could save the world—or burn it to ash.
Sera never asked to exist.
Born of a forbidden union between werewolf and fae, she's spent twenty years as her father's dirty secret. Hidden away. Beaten down. Used as a servant in the very house where she should have been cherished as a daughter.
She's learned to survive by staying invisible. By burying her magic so deep even she forgets it's there. By accepting that hybrids like her don't get happy endings—they just get through another day.
Until one night changes everything.
Kade Black doesn't do half-measures.
As Alpha King, he's spent two years searching for the one thing his wolf craves more than power—his fated mate. Every ball, every gathering, every eligible she-wolf in the kingdom... nothing. No spark. No bond. Just emptiness that gets harder to hide.
He's starting to believe the Moon Goddess forgot about him.
Then he catches her scent across a crowded ballroom.
Wild honey and night-blooming jasmine. A pull so strong it brings him to his knees. His mate. Finally. After years of waiting, she's real and she's right there—
Running away from him like her life depends on it.
Because it does.
Sera knows what she is. An abomination. Forbidden by ancient law. The kind of mistake that gets people killed. And now the King—the actual KING—is claiming she's his? Looking at her like she's precious instead of wrong?
It has to be a trap. Or a test. Or temporary insanity that'll wear off the second he finds out the truth.
But Kade isn't walking away. He's declaring war on anyone who tries to separate them. Rewriting laws that have stood for centuries. Fighting his own council, rebellious Alphas, and centuries of hatred—all for a girl who's been told her whole life that she doesn't deserve to be loved.
The Moon Goddess has a plan. It involves three impossible trials, an ancient prophecy, and a choice that will either shatter every chain that's ever bound them—or set the entire world on fire.
Sera has survived beatings, starvation, and twenty years of being invisible.
But can she survive being seen? Being claimed? Being loved by a King who refuses to let her go?
"I would burn kingdoms before I rejected you."
When the most powerful wolf alive chooses you as his Queen, running stops being an option. Fighting back becomes the only choice. And love? Love becomes the most dangerous weapon of all.
