** Some bonds can’t be broken. And some truths should never be uncovered. ** When wolves abandoned the Moon Goddess, they embraced the blood god - a cruel deity demanding sacrifices and unquestioning obedience. Alisa, raised in an orphanage that prepares girls to be sold as sacrifices or breeders, knew her future was grim. Plain, overlooked, and destined to disappear - she never expected anyone to claim her. Until the night of the auction when everything changes. Instead of going unnoticed, she’s draws the attention of Derrick Clayborne, the feared Demon Alpha of Rosewood. Derrick doesn’t follow anyone's rules but he own. He doesn’t believe in the new blood god, and he doesn’t sacrifice innocents. But his defiance comes at a cost. He has made powerful enemies, and Alisa’s presence in his home threatens to expose his secrets to the Lycan overlords. As Alisa settles into her new life, she finds herself drawn to the Alpha who saved her. Beneath Derrick’s cold exterior lies a man burdened by his own demons, and the closer they grow, the harder it becomes to growing the connection between them.
