When the Alpha Begged

Five years ago, Alpha Jaxon Creed made the worst decision of his life.When a medical report claimed his fated mate could endanger the future of his pack, Jaxon chose duty over trust. Dahlia Rose begged him to question the evidence, but he refused to listen—and rejected the woman he loved.Eleven days later, Dahlia discovered she was pregnant.She left Blackridge, built a life of her own, and raised their daughter without the Alpha who had broken her heart. She never expected to return.But five years later, Dahlia comes home with four-year-old Mira at her side, and one look is enough for Jaxon to realize exactly what his choice cost him.A daughter he never knew.A mate who no longer trusts him.And years he can never get back.As evidence surfaces that Dahlia's medical records were deliberately falsified, old betrayals begin to unravel and powerful enemies threaten the family Jaxon has only just discovered.But exposing the truth won't erase what he did.If Jaxon wants Dahlia back, he'll have to do more than apologize. He must prove through every choice, every sacrifice, and every painful act of accountability that he has become a man worthy of her trust.Because this time, fate won't decide whether they belong together.Dahlia will.The manuscript specifically shows Jaxon accepting that Dahlia owes him nothing, respecting her boundaries with Mira, and eventually asking for a second chance rather than claiming one.
