The night Ashrielle Ember was sentenced to die, she learned a brutal truth. Sometimes the people you call family tend to be the monsters. Branded a Glitch and hated by her own kind, Ashrielle escapes execution and vanishes into the human world. For four years, she survives. For four years, she hides. For four years, she convinces herself that the wolves who wanted her dead will never find her. Then a powerful Alpha walks into a school office and destroys everything. One look. One heartbeat. One impossible word. Mate. Now the Alpha who should be her enemy can't stay away from her. The scar on her cheek seems to haunt him. Ancient enemies are emerging from the shadows. And a forgotten secret surrounding Ashrielle's birth is finally awakening. Because she was never meant to exist. And when the truth comes out, the werewolf world will never be the same.
