My Alpha Mate is a bully

He subjected me to cruel bullying, and now, against all rules, I bear his secret baby girl. With his unexpected return to our small town, my pack compels me to negotiate with him. An outcast accustomed to insults, I'm bound by orders and haunted by memories of rejection and torment that I can't escape.

My pack requires his protection—he's the alpha of the black ops, after all. Despite the need to prioritize my pack over personal feelings, I find myself unable to do so. The shame I should feel for the way he still affects me clashes with the duty I must fulfill.
