To Dahlia, being sold like a commodity, while desperate old men clamored to have a taste of her was the height of degradation anyone could face, but little does she know that that was only the tip of the iceberg.

In a world where destiny is created and manipulated by the moon goddess, the last thing Dahlia expected is that a single night with the Alpha’s son would reshape her life—and not for the better, in her books.

Once the omega slave and the alpha’s plaything, Dahlia is faced with more challenges than she ever imagined. She is scarred beyond measure. Hurt, battered and desperate. 

She’s not an omega but a full blown werewolf, a werewolf with a strong dormant bloodline—a bloodline strong enough to scare even the moon goddess.

Her close proximity with Alpha Zarek had somehow managed to awaken her dormant wolf, opening her eyes to secrets she never knew about herself.

The mission had been to save herself. To get her daughter to safety and flee, so now imagine her surprise when she discovers a huge secret about him. A huge secret that has her questioning everything. 

Now hunted by the Alpha of her old pack and stalked by a vengeful man after her blood, Dahlia must navigate her tangled bond with her possessive new master. But as passion rises and secrets unravel, she must choose:

To save him and get to know about her real roots or flee— as usual. It would have been easy to take the easier route, the more predictable path but there’s a problem: She’s Alpha Zarek’s fated mate.

Dahlia was born for this moment. To have the entire world under her control. She’s not broken. She’s waiting. And she has no intention of backing down.

Their bond is a burden.

Their affection, a lie.

But the fire between them? The scorching engulfing fire burning between their veins might be real.

And even if it is, it will either unite them. Or end them.

It was about to rain. I could smell it in the air, could feel it in the way the hairs on my skin stood on end, and in the way goosebumps spread across my skin like a thousand whispers brushing against me, each one echoing a memory I tried not to remember. 


I couldn't bring myself to move an inch even though I knew that I should try to run from the looming downpour, probably scampering into the safety of my warm manor in the heart of the city.


My mind was not at ease, my wolf felt restless. I was burdened. And this had nothing to do with the growing insecurity in the pack due to the awakening of Nyx'Zariel, this had nothing to do with the Elders seeking desperately for a way forward, or the uncomfortable pressure being mounted on my shoulders to either take up the throne or give it up to an Alpha with no memories— not like I was even sure that he indeed lost his memories.


It had everything to do with a particular slave girl.
