I was Kieran’s secret lover for three years, waiting for his mark. Then I saw his phone: he just went public with another woman's mating ceremony. At that moment, I finally understood. I was never his chosen mate, just a warm body in his bed. They all thought I was a nobody, but I am the heiress of the North’s apex pack. So I walked away, exposed the truth, and now the Alpha is on his knees, begging me to come back.
