"He shattered her soul. Another healed it. But destiny never plays fair." Forced to serve the most powerful werewolf clan in America, Aliyah never had a choice. But she made a silent vow—to escape the Connors and reclaim her life. That dream shatters the moment Brayden Connor, the ruthless heir to the pack, marks her as his mate without consent… and turns her world into a nightmare. Just when all hope seems lost, Werewolf King Ashton Donovan steps in with an irresistible offer: freedom, power, and the chance to make her enemies pay. Aliyah accepts—but what begins as revenge soon turns into something far more dangerous. Love. As Ashton claims her as his mate, Aliyah finally begins to heal. Until Brayden returns—with chilling secrets about her grandmother's death, and a gaze that stirs something terrifyingly familiar deep within her. Is she truly free? Or is fate playing a cruel game—one where the past refuses to stay buried, and the heart can't forget its first bond?
