Lycan King’s Pregnant Rejected Bookish Mate: A Rejected Mate Secret Baby Shifter Romance
I got a job as a Lycan King's assistant-
He said we were fated mates.
Then he got me pregnant, and rejected me.
The job I applied for said executive assistant.
It didn't say anything about supernatural creatures, fated mates, or having a sexy werewolf boss growl mine against my throat.
Lycan King Aurion Ashborne is six-foot-seven of ice-blue eyes and sex in a suit.
After the first day of working for him, he calls me into his corner office. Locks the door.
His eyes flash silver and he pins me against the wall before I can say good morning.
Mate.
What follows is weeks of him taking me on every surface in his office. Biting me, claiming me. Whispering filthy promises while he takes me apart.
I stupidly, hopelessly fall for him.
I'm human, he's a Lycan King. His world has laws against this. I'm a scandal waiting to happen.
He doesn't seem to care, until his pack shows up demanding answers.
Once they arrive, Aurion announces I'm nothing, a lowly human distraction.
He rejects me as his mate and I feel the bond rip out of my chest.
So I run away, with my dignity in a chokehold.
Three weeks later, I'm staring at two pink lines in my bathroom.
I'm a human carrying a Lycan King's baby. And he will never know.
Aurion
I rejected my mate to keep her alive. The elders don't allow human mates.
They wanted her dead. So I shattered her first.
Four months later I find her. Seven months pregnant.
Rejection has turned me into a pathetic golden retriever and I don't even care.
She's human. Fragile. Mine.
She can hate me forever. But nobody touches what's mine and lives.
Lycan King’s Pregnant Rejected Bookish Mate is a fun, interconnected standalone with heavy angst and high spice. For best reading experience, start with book 1 Lycan King’s Rejected Bookish Mate!

Still dragged a bit
Possible Spoilers.
I still didn’t care for Wen in this book, lol. I understand that a lot of authors like to create a certain tension or issue that would push the couple apart. But it was just so obvious that all the MC had to do was explain the situation to the FC. It was a simple explanation. It could’ve cleared it up, but it was dragged out so long it became irritating. And then for her to threaten to disappear with his baby that set me off too (pet peeve of mine in books). She didn’t come off a strong. She came off as emotionally immature.
Overall, the score I gave was due to the MC and the friends weren’t bad in this installment either. I would still recommend it. Again, this is just MY preference.

Now this is a novel. There was no stone left unturned. The spice pretty mild but the fact there was actual plot and world building was top tier and worth it. No knots which is hit or miss in most books. I did notice the lack of mentioning of smell and hearing for the shifters. I personally believe that is a fairly common thing to have. Definitely missed opportunities with those. Also another missed opportunity when she brought brownies. I've read stories where some shifters can't have chocolate and some can. over all if your looking for a cozy story that'll make you cry laugh and everything in between this is for you.

it’s growing on me
Alright these stories are growing on me. The fact that it was similar to a billionaire boss and secretary romance thrown in with the Lucan King, a very resistant mate bond on her part, then coupled with assassination attempts and a rejected mate bond, plus a pregnancy and of course a HEA all tied up in one. Yeah I’d say it was a good read and one I might reread again.

I love that Aurion got a story. Love him! Even though the stories are all typically the same I am okay with that. Looking forward to Bella and Kristen's stories.

2.5 stars. Absolutely needs editing! So, so many paragraph repeats! Please for the lova all that's holy hire an editor! Or at the very least READ through your own book before you publish it.
Otherwise, it has a decent plot and has potential!
