Erin Horn has spent six years building a life outside pack law.
A packless werewolf and grief counselor in present-day Montréal, Erin knows exactly what unchecked Alpha power can cost. Her younger brother died in Blackridge territory during a mysterious nighttime pursuit, and the pack buried the truth behind sealed records, official silence, and a funeral payment she refused to accept. Since then, Erin wants only two things: independence and answers.
Then Wilson Brooks walks into her life.
He is Blackridge’s newly installed Alpha, the man responsible for governing the very pack Erin despises. Worse, the moment they meet, their wolves recognize a mate bond neither of them asked for.
Erin refuses to let instinct rewrite history. Wilson may be powerful, controlled, and dangerously difficult to ignore, but a supernatural bond does not earn her trust. If he wants a place in her life, he will have to prove that he is more than the title attached to her worst memories.
Wilson has problems of his own. Someone is sabotaging Blackridge territory, old evidence connected to Erin’s brother has resurfaced, and tensions with a rival pack are rising fast. Protecting Erin comes naturally to his wolf. Respecting her right to choose, especially when every instinct tells him to keep her close, is far harder.
The Alpha I Never Wanted is an emotionally charged fated-mates werewolf romance packed with a reluctant heroine, a relentless but restraint-tested Alpha, buried pack secrets, dangerous political pressure, slow-burn attraction, and a mate bond that complicates everything instead of solving it.
If you love powerful wolves, wounded trust, forced proximity, protective Alpha energy, and a heroine who refuses to surrender her agency, open the book and enter Blackridge.
