Monster’s Claim

The little omega distracted me, and now I’ll pay the price.

I wasn’t expecting a monster to stumble across me as I was bathing, I just wanted to soothe the heat burning through my veins.

I definitely couldn’t have guessed he’d claim me in the stream, binding us together moments before my mother arrives to announce my engagement.

She can’t erase what happened, but she thinks she can hide it long enough to obtain my bride price. Should I let another alpha override the monster’s claim, or should I save my mate?
