The Alpha's Regretful Mate

Four years prior, Naomi Blackwood entered into a contract to become Alpha Kaidan Vaughn’s mate, driven by the need for her healer tuition to be covered, while he required a spouse to uphold his reputation after his true mate disappeared. The arrangement was intended to be short-term and devoid of love, and for some time, it functioned as such. However, time has a tendency to stir desires for what should not be wished for, and Naomi began to yearn for more than just a credit card and an unwelcoming bed. In contrast, Alpha Kaidan remained indifferent, as his affections were still anchored to Serena, the woman who returned three years later with tears and a narrative that enveloped Alpha Kaidan in guilt. Now, the entire pack regards Naomi as a mere substitute, and Alpha Kaidan treats her as if she were invisible, until the day she graduates and resolutely decides she will no longer plead. She approaches him and requests a divorce, and for the first time in four years, the Alpha who never showed concern becomes the one pleading for her to remain. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Alpha's Regretful Mate — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
