Alpha (Ash)

I never thought being saved from pain, degradation and death could come at such a twisted price. He is nightmares made flesh, the living embodiment of everything I fear. Yet in my darkest hour, he is the one who comes for me. If he demands my submission in return, how can I deny him?

Leigh's career is in ruins, her dreams shattered - and her nights haunted by the memory of a man she shouldn't want. When an exclusive invitation to partake in Mattenburg's annual Masquerade drops through her letterbox, she sees a chance to take back control over her life. If she can find a good scoop, she'll have her job back in no time - and her mind off the stranger who claimed her so completely before disappearing into the night. But gilded invitations don't come for free, and Leigh's about to find out just how steep the price for entering the Masquerade will be....

Being mated to an alpha was never part of Leigh's plans. As much as the man who's claimed her as his heats up her bed and sets her body on fire, she's not ready to give up everything for an alpha she hardly knows. Especially not after all the lies and deceit he's spun to keep his real identity hidden from her.

But when her alpha's scheming enemies learn of her existence, there's no one but him left to save her.

Will he sacrifice everything he is to rescue the one he calls his mate?
