Fated mates are a lie.
I’ve been summoned by a king. One too lazy to get off his throne and go look for his mate. Instead, he’s requesting that all unmated females from each of the four kingdoms come to him. You know, because that’s so much easier.
Much to my dismay, I’m forced to go to Selaris and what I hope will be a quick trip, turns into something else entirely.
King Theo is supposedly my mate. Just my freaking luck.
Yet, there’s something off with our bond. No, with him. I don’t know what it is and I’m not certain what to do, but I’m sure the hell going to find out. Because there’s one thing that I know for sure…
I won’t be used as anyone’s pawn. Not even for a mate.
