The Alpha’s Deceptive Vow (Rise of the Rejected #3)

He thinks I stole his legacy. I think he’ll destroy my heart. The Moon Goddess says we belong anyway.

CADEN
I almost killed her the night she ran in front of my car clutching a sick child to her chest. The second I touched her, my wolf recognized her as mine.

My fated mate. There’s only one problem: Talia is the woman I was supposed to destroy. She became the owner of my late aunt’s estate, a hidden mineral vein worth billions, and every instinct tells me she’s a liar.

But the girl I’m watching cry over orphaned kids, fight nobles twice her status, and look at me like I’m danger wrapped in temptation?

She doesn’t feel fake.
She feels inevitable.

TALIA
I know men like Caden Vane ruin women like me.

Alpha of Nightfall Pack.
Untouchable. Ruthless.
Born into a world that would crush a slum girl for daring to breathe near him.

Yet every touch burns, every look feels like a promise I’m terrified to believe. He says I’m remarkable.
His kiss says I’m his.

And when I learn why he really came into my life, the mate bond might not survive what comes next.
