Astrid dedicated her life to Leon, believing in their love, their pack, their future. But the devastating return of her sister, Clara, as Leon's destined mate, shatters Astrid's carefully constructed world. Betrayal cuts deep, leaving Astrid stripped bare and forced to confront a horrifying truth: her loyalty was misplaced, her sacrifices meaningless.

Just as despair threatens to consume her, Kaeleen, a magnetic and rebellious Alpha from a rival pack, storms into her life, igniting a forbidden passion that challenges everything she thought she knew. He offers her a chance to escape the suffocating control of her past, to claim a life of her own, a life where she is the priority.

But Leon won't relinquish his prize so easily. Obsessed and dangerously possessive, he unleashes a storm of violence and manipulation, determined to drag Astrid back into the darkness. Now, Astrid must make a desperate choice: succumb to the chains of her past, or embrace the dangerous allure of a love that could save her... or ignite a war that will consume them all.

The world narrowed to a single point of contact: Kaeleen's mouth on mine.


At first, it was gentle, a stark contrast to every other kiss I had known for the past five years. Leon's kisses had been acts of ownership, hard and demanding, a brand to mark his territory. Kaeleen's was a question, soft and hesitant. My mind went blank, every coherent thought dissolving into pure sensation. The warmth of his lips, the clean scent of his skin, the low, possessive growl that vibrated through his chest and straight into my soul.
