They say a wolf who runs alone is already dead. But some secrets are worth dying for.​Zamani is a survivor. For years, they have walked the shadows of the human world, blending into the background and hiding a scent profile so rare that even the most powerful trackers can't lock onto their true lineage. To the rest of the world, Zamani is just a penniless rogue passing through a forgotten mountain town. But a single night in the punishing rain of the Blackwood valley changes everything.​Framed for a high-stakes break-in at the eastern armory of the fearsome Silver Ridge Pack, Zamani finds themselves cornered by the two most dangerous men on the coast:​Douglas Rosslyn Stevens: The unyielding Alpha of Silver Ridge. A fierce, traditionalist powerhouse who rules with an iron fist, Douglas believes in blood, boundaries, and immediate execution for trespassers.​Paul Smith: The pack’s brilliant, dangerously charming Beta and chief strategist. Dressed in tailored coats and wielding a cold, calculated smile, Paul views the world as a chessboard—and Zamani might just be his perfect new pawn.​With silver-laced handcuffs burning their wrists and a forty-eight-hour deadline ticking away, Zamani is forced into a deadly contract: help the pack trace the stolen weapons, or face execution.​As the hunt begins, the lines between enemy and ally blur. Douglas's terrifying dominance begins to clash with a fierce, unexpected protective instinct, while Paul's smooth loyalty masks a brilliant game that could shake the pack hierarchy to its core. But the dangerous game they are playing runs deeper than pack politics. When the full moon hits, a dormant prophecy will awaken—revealing a hidden bloodline trait in Zamani that could either save the Silver Ridge Pack, or burn it to the ground.​One rogue wolf. One unyielding Alpha. One mastermind Beta. Let the game begin.
