Marked By The Mute Alpha

"If you are not my mate, then why does the beast within me roar at your mere touch? Why does it growl to mark you as mine? Only Mine!” +++++ Being an Alpha’s fated mate was supposed to make Angelise Morin untouchable. But it only brought her shame. When she caught her Alpha cheating, he didn’t deny it. He didn’t even apologize. Instead, he ordered her to accept it, to obey, to bear his pups. Worse? Angelise couldn’t even reject this bastard; doing so would kill her. So she ran-only to collide with the only man her mate had ever feared. Zaerian Daemon Ranvor. The Mute Alpha. He was the devil whom even the Moon Goddess failed to tame. A ruthless ruler who had never bowed to fate. And to Angelise, he was the perfect weapon to bring down her enemies. Zaerian should have killed her for trespassing. Instead, the moment he touched her, something shattered. Her scent drove his beast insane. A mere touch ignited a hunger he had never felt before. He didn’t care if she was his little brother’s fated mate—he wanted her. And he would claim her. Even if marking her meant death for both. ++++ Excerpt: “It’s none of your business who I date, Alpha! Get lost!” I grumbled as Zaerian dragged me into the elevator. “Let me go!” I demanded as the metal doors slid shut. When I tried to pull away, Zaerian caught my other wrist and pressed me against the cold steel wall. His strong hand gripped my wrists firmly, effortlessly pinning them above my head. My breath hitched as his crimson gaze locked onto mine. He didn’t speak. He never did. But his silence was more dangerous than words. Zaerian moved closer, his body pressing against mine, so close that I could feel the heat radiating beneath his shirt. Slowly, he lowered his head until we were face to face, his lips a breath away from mine. “Leave-“ I gasped when Zaerian suddenly slid his knee between my thighs, cutting off the rest of my protest. “It is my business, sweetheart.” The voice was low, raw, and undeniably real. “The only man allowed to touch you is me. It will always be me.” My knees grew weak, heat rushing through my veins. But then my mind froze in realization. Wait… he could speak?!
