She was the runt they mocked. The omega they scorned. Years of blood, scars, and silence bought her a place in the pack - earned, never given. Now she stands as their most trusted hunter. Then he returns. Her fated mate. The Alpha who shattered her trust and walked away. The bond says he belongs to her. Her heart says never again. But he’s not leaving this time. He’s watching, hunting for the truth behind her guarded eyes. Because no one knows what she hides: the warrior’s power sleeping in her bones, lethal enough to topple Alphas. Only her two closest friends know what she really is. He wants her secrets. He wants her. But if he pushes too hard, the wolf he uncovers might be the one who kills him first.
