Knotted and Betrayed By the Alphahole

Liam doesn’t believe in fate—until his body chooses his mate… days after his engagement.

LIAM
I am the rational brother. I don’t make mistakes, and I don’t leave anything to chance. I planned my life down to the quarter-hour: a strategic position in the family empire, a stable Beta fiancée, and an engagement party to cement a future built on logic, not biology. Love and fate are liabilities I refuse to indulge.
But when a logistical error with the centerpiece orders forces me to personally visit a local florist, my meticulously organized reality is blown apart. One breath of her scent destroys thirty-three years of ironclad logic. I didn’t just meet my fated mate—I lost control and knotted her during our very first encounter.

STAR
I thought I had finally found my alpha. When the intense, striking man walked into Star Brite Flowers, my biology recognized him instantly. He claimed me, consumed me, and made me believe I was his entirely.
Then I found out the devastating truth: the flowers he was ordering were for his own engagement party. To someone else.
Devastated and feeling like nothing more than a biological mistake, I do the only thing I can—I run. I leave my shop, my life, and my shattered trust behind.

But Liam Vaughn is a man who fixes errors. And he is about to learn that the only way to claim the omega his body chose is to completely dismantle the safe, predictable life his mind planned.
