On my eighteenth birthday, my grandmother called me with three words that changed everything. Don't come home. I should have listened. Instead, I walked straight into the nightmare she'd spent eighteen years trying to protect me from. I was taken without explanation and thrown into a hidden world where girls disappear behind locked doors and powerful men decide their worth. One by one, they were chosen. Then it was my turn. A single drop of my blood changed everything. Suddenly, I wasn't just another captive. I was valuable. Dangerously valuable. The kind of valuable that could start wars. The kind of valuable that could make monsters bid fortunes for ownership. On the night of the auction, I learned exactly what my life was worth. And I was sold to the most feared Alpha in the room. Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable. To him, I was nothing more than an asset he had purchased. A rare prize. A bargaining chip. But the longer I remain under his control, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth hidden beneath his walls—or the strange bond pulling us together. Because my blood isn't the only secret I've been carrying. And when the truth about who I am finally comes to light, every pack will want a piece of me. The only question is whether the Alpha who bought me will protect me... Or be the first one to use me.

Lyra has spent her entire life being desired.... but never loved,treated as if she was born wrong. Wolfless. Unwanted. Invisible. In Moon fang pack, weak girls do not get happy endings. They survive however they can while powerful wolves decide their worth for them. After being treated like a slave and after years of humiliation, silence, and learning how to make herself small, Lyra stops believing life could ever become more than pain she quietly endures. Until the Alpha of nightshade looks at her… and calls her his mate. For one impossible moment, Lyra thinks fate has finally chosen her. Then he rejects her in front of the entire pack. But something about the rejection goes terribly wrong. Because instead of breaking her completely, it awakens something buried deep inside her. Something ancient. Something dangerous. Something that was never meant to wake. And before Lyra can understand what is happening to her, a mysterious stranger with silver eyes arrives at Moonfang claiming he has been searching for her for years. Now the girl nobody wanted is suddenly being hunted, protected, feared… and desired. As secrets surrounding her birth begin to unravel, Lyra is pulled into a world of ancient bloodlines, deadly prophecies, and mate bonds far more dangerous than she ever imagined. Because the wolfless girl they mocked all her life may not be weak after all. She may be the one thing powerful men should have feared from the beginning.
