Bound by Crown and Mate
Eleanor never expected that escaping her bullies by jumping over the academy wall would lead her straight into the arms of Adrian, the kingdom's kind and charming crown prince. Their connection is instant, and for the first time, Eleanor—a poor orphan—feels the warmth of love.
But her newfound happiness is shattered when Briar, the fierce and intimidating alpha of the kingdom’s most powerful werewolf pack, declares her as his fated mate.
Caught between two worlds, Eleanor must choose: Adrian, whose love is gentle and warm, like the sun; or Briar, whose love is intense and unyielding, like the weight of a mountain.
As tensions between the kingdom and the werewolves escalate into a deadly conflict, Adrian is crowned king and vows to protect his people, even if it means driving the werewolves out for good. But Adrian hides a dark truth—he is one of them.
Meanwhile, Briar is willing to risk everything to claim Eleanor and avenge his pack. With war looming and her heart pulled in two directions, Eleanor must decide where she truly belongs. Will she choose the light of the king or the shadows of the alpha?
In a battle of love, loyalty, and revenge, the fate of the kingdom—and Eleanor’s heart—hangs in the balance.
