I was the perfect Luna, a devoted wife - a legendary warrior in disguise - until my Alpha mate moved his brother's widow into our home and discarded me like a wolfless sacrifice. He chained me to the cursed Lycan King's bed and walked away laughing.They have no idea I've awakened the curse that once bound me...a power that can break Alphas and make them kneel.Three years later, I'm the realms top surgeon and my ex is back on his knees in my clinic begging for mercy which I no longer possess to save his current Luna (the widow).The queen has risen from the ashes and every single one of them is about to choke on the deadly trap I've laid.

He called me "little sister." I called him my forever.I've loved Skyler Voss since I was sixteen—my brother's best friend, my pack's most feared enforcer, and the man who looked right through me like I was invisible. For years, I watched him from the shadows, memorizing the way he laughed, the way he rode, the way he commanded every room he entered.Then came the night of my twenty-first birthday. The night the mate bond snapped into place.The night he looked at me with horror in his eyes and said the words that shattered me: "You're like a sister to me, Wren. You'll only ever be a sister."So I ran. I buried myself in my art, in a new city, in a life where Skyler Voss was nothing but a ghost I refused to let haunt me.Five years later, I'm not the same girl who cried herself to sleep over a man who didn't want her. I'm successful. I'm strong. I'm done.But when a family emergency drags me back to Ironvale, I discover that Skyler isn't done with me. The rejection that once broke me is now breaking him—slowly, painfully, driving him to the edge of madness. His wolf is feral. His control is slipping. And he's looking at me like I'm the only thing standing between him and the abyss.He wants a second chance. He wants forgiveness. He wants me.But I've spent five years learning to live without him. And I'm not sure I remember how to love someone who once made me feel so utterly worthless.
