The Beta's Queen

A gasp escaped the moment I laid eyes on Luke. My eyes snapped at my father and I could only pray that he hadn’t seen my reaction!
Luke was my mate! Luke! My father’s best friend was my mate. I fought the urge to scream it out loud the second I saw the shock in his eyes and he shook his head. Luke didn’t acknowledge what I was feeling until I was outside on the terrace swearing at the moon goddess! He walked up behind me and breathed in my scent and a delightful shiver ran down the back of my spine.
“This can’t happen. We can’t be together …” His voice made me ache for him to touch me. I turned around and glared at him. I was still in shock. My feelings for Luke and the bond were pulling me closer to him with each ticking second.
Arora was born the daughter of a cruel and chauvinistic king. She fights to prove herself, but her father only views her as an arm decoration. When she finds out her mate is also her father’s Beta and best friend, her life takes a turn for the worse. The future queen can’t be mated to a much older man, much less a friend of her father’s.
