As a wolfless omega, Maya Miller knew she was never supposed to have a mate. Her only goal at Ridgebrook University was to protect her scholarship, stay invisible, and run from a fate of forced marriage.But that night, on the silent ice rink, one fatal mistake changed everything. Maya dared to challenge Kaelen Vance, the dominant Alpha, the ruthless captain of the hockey team, and the untouchable ruler of the academy.One rough touch. One sharp stare. And the air between them suddenly exploded with a heat that was massive, thick, and dangerous. Their instincts recognized each other instantly, but Kaelen's ego refused to accept it. To protect his reputation, the Alpha went too far: he announced a vicious public rejection in front of the entire campus, tearing Maya's pride to shreds.Kaelen thought he could suppress the mate bond. He thought he could bring Maya to her knees.He was dead wrong.Maya answered the humiliation with a hard slap across his perfect face, then turned and walked straight into the arms of another man ready to protect her. But a rejected mate bond doesn't let anyone off that easily. The bond mutated into a tormenting thirst, scorching their chests every time they got close, igniting a dark, uncontrollable hunger.Now, every time Kaelen's pine-and-cedar scent wraps around her, Maya knows she's in danger, especially when the Alpha starts losing control, pinning her wrist against the wall in the dark hallway, staring at her with hungry, golden eyes. Rejecting Maya was the biggest mistake of Kaelen's life, and now the wolf inside him is ready to lose it every time he catches another man's scent on his girl's skin."Your skin's still burning from my touch, Miller. So get ready, because I'm taking back what was always meant to be mine."
