She was marked, hunted, and punished for what she was, a lowly omega, despised by her own pack, accused of dark magic, and sentenced to die. Then he appeared. Ronan Salvatore, the cursed alpha of the North, a man no woman had survived for a year, stepped into her life with a single, and deadly purpose. He didn’t save her out of mercy, and he certainly didn’t save her for love. He saved her for a reason only he could know, and a secret that could bind them together or destroy them both. But when she uncovers his plan, and realizes the danger she is in, she vows to strike first, to survive, and to take him down before he can claim her completely. Her life would be forever tied to his curse, and the closer she gets, the more she realizes she is no ordinary omega. Something in her blood, and in her lineage, could change everything. In a world of pack rivalries, forbidden desire, and ancient curses, she must decide to either trust the alpha who saved her, or strike first before he claims her completely.
