Claimed By The Exiled Alpha Rejected Mate

One night. One rejection. One secret that changed two worlds.*

**Zara**

I was just a med-tech on a deep space station—invisible to everyone, especially alien royalty. Until Prince Kael crash-landed in my med bay, bleeding out and speaking in a language that somehow... I understood.

One touch. One impossible psychic bond that should never have formed between human and Draknari. For a moment, I thought the universe was finally on my side.

Until he woke up and said the words that shattered my world: *"This bond is a mistake. You are nothing to me."*

I ran to the furthest edge of the galaxy, but I took something with me—a secret growing inside me with silver eyes and alien strength.

**Kael**

Bond with a human? Impossible. I rejected her without hesitation—my throne, my people, my duty came first. But the Draknari Council had other plans. They exiled me for the "contamination" anyway.

For five years, I've been a warrior without a world, hunting the rebels who destroyed my family. Until I tracked them to a remote colony and found something that stopped my heart:

A little girl with my silver eyes and her mother's defiant spirit. My daughter. *Our* daughter.

The rebels want them both. Over my dead body.

I'll burn every star in the sky to protect what's mine. Even if she still hates me. Even if I have to grovel. Even if it means war.

*Some bonds can't be broken. Some loves are worth dying for.*
