She was rejected, hunted, and hiding a secret that could destroy two packs - then his enemy found her first.

When Logan Pierce publicly rejected Sera as his mate and shattered their bond, she ran. She had nothing left - no pack, no protection, no future. Just a secret growing inside her that she swore no one would ever discover.

Two years later, she's survived. Barely. Working double shifts in a dingy neutral city bar, raising her toddler daughter in a studio apartment with water-stained walls, pretending she doesn't miss what it feels like to belong. She's not living - she's hiding. And she's very, very good at it.

Until Darius Steele steps out of the shadows.

Logan's sworn enemy. Alpha of Shadowfang. A man who doesn't ask - he claims.

He isn't offering salvation. He's offering a deal: her safety and her daughter's future, in exchange for the sweetest revenge he's ever tasted - possessing everything his enemy was too arrogant to keep.

Sera knows exactly what she is to him. A weapon. A prize. A way to make Logan bleed without drawing a claw.

She should say no.

She doesn't have a choice.

What begins as cold-blooded strategy turns into something far more dangerous than revenge. Forced into his territory, claimed before his pack, and bound to an alpha who makes no apologies for what he wants, Sera discovers that the possessive alpha who took her for all the wrong reasons may be the only one who sees her - truly sees her - for the first time. And Lily? Lily already calls him Dare.

But Logan Pierce hasn't forgotten what was taken from him. When he comes back to reclaim his bloodline by force, Darius will have to choose: the revenge that defined him, or the family that saved him.

This dark werewolf romance burns slow and scorches fast. It is packed with a possessive alpha who will raze the world before letting anyone touch what's his, a rejected mate who had to become her own hero before she could let someone love her, and a secret baby who binds two enemies into something neither of them planned.
