The Lycan's Queen Universe: My Redemption

L. S. Patel

Hunter thought he had found forever, until the truth shatters everything he believed about his mate. Burned but breathing, he pours his focus into leading his pack and swears love is no longer on the agenda. Ivy carries her own scars after a rejection that still stings, and she understands the quiet ache he tries to hide. Friendship feels safe. Simple. Manageable. Yet every shared look and steady touch hums with something warmer, something neither of them plans for. In a world ruled by instinct and fate, resisting desire takes strength. But what happens when two wounded wolves begin to hope again?

Because the more he pretends, the harder it becomes to ignore what is real—and what could change everything.
