I Saved a Wolf, Then Had His Heirs

Escaping the dungeon, Cynthia saved a dying wolf. She became a maid—only to find the wolf was her crippled master, Alger. One accidental night left her pregnant. She ran and hid for three years. Dragged back to the dungeon, she saw Alger kick the door down. He could walk, he was a war hero, and he had the crown. He won her throne by day, and became her wolf by night, showing his old scar. "The night you saved me," he whispered, "I became yours forever." With two cubs at her feet, she knew—choosing him was my greatest win.
