Deceived by Fate - A Fated Mate Second Chance Romance #967973

He rejected me. Shattered my heart. Now he's back—and he's not the only deadly secret I'm hiding.
I never wanted to lie. But when your pack is dying and an arranged marriage is the only way to save them, you do what you have to do.
So I became someone else. Walked into Alpha Marcus Silverpine's territory wearing a dead woman's name and a fake smile, ready to sacrifice everything for my people.
Then I met him in the moonlit gardens.
Kael. A security guard with storm-blue eyes and a touch that set my soul on fire. One reckless night together and the mate bond snapped into place—fierce, unbreakable, impossible.
Because I was promised to another man. And he had secrets darker than mine.
When Kael rejected me—said I meant nothing, that our night together was a mistake—I thought the pain would kill me. But I survived. Disappeared into the human world with the one thing he didn't know existed.
Our son.
Five years later, my past just caught up with me.
I built a perfume empire from nothing. Gave my boy the life he deserved. Thought I was safe.
I was wrong.
Someone's destroying everything I worked for. Sabotaging my business. Threatening my son. And the only person who can help is the man who ripped my heart out and never looked back.
Except Kael's not who I thought he was.
He's not a security guard. He's the Alpha King's heir. And the rejection that broke me? He says it was a lie. Says he was protecting me. Says he never stopped searching for me.
Now he wants me back. Wants to meet the son he didn't know he had. Wants to complete the bond we started five years ago.
But my enemies are closing in. Marcus wants revenge for my deception. Kael's powerful family wants to control our son's future. And somewhere between fighting for survival and falling for my mate all over again, I have to decide:
Do I risk everything on a man who already shattered me once?
Or do I run before he gets the chance to do it again?
The mate bond is supposed to be forever. But nobody said forever would be this dangerous.
