Bought by the Lycan Alpha. A Dark Second-Chance Werewolf Romance, #1

Wren was never meant to come back. Once branded, abandoned, and hunted by debt, she learned the hard way that survival costs more than blood-it costs hope. When she's sold at a border market like property, the last man she expects to claim her freedom is Rowan Blackthorn, the Lycan Alpha who once turned his back and let her disappear. He says he thought she was dead. She says that changes nothing.
Now Wren is back in pack lands that remember her shame, bound by old laws, watched by wolves who don't trust her, and standing beside an Alpha who carries guilt as heavy as his crown. Rowan doesn't ask for forgiveness. He doesn't beg. He only offers truth, protection, and a choice she's never been given before. But the past doesn't stay buried. Enemies rise. Betrayals surface. Pack politics turn deadly.
And the bond neither of them wanted becomes the only thing strong enough to challenge ancient laws built on control and silence. Love comes late. Redemption comes at a cost. And the moon always demands its due. The Lycan Alpha is a gritty, emotional werewolf romance about second chances, survival, and choosing love on your own terms-even when it breaks you. Perfect for readers who crave raw emotion, powerful Alpha heroes, resilient heroines, and high-stakes pack drama with a heartbreaking edge.
