She rejected her fated mate. Fate answered with her greatest enemy. ​Born as the daughter of the Alpha of Alphas, Lyra was raised to be a weapon, not a daughter. After catching her fated mate in bed with her best friend, she rejects him before the entire pack and flees to the only place her father cannot control: Thornewood Academy. ​But Thornewood is no sanctuary. Behind its enchanted walls, monsters become ordinary... and secrets become deadly. She met ​Malakai Von Voss, the exiled vampire prince who arrives with blood on his hands and a crime that could ignite a global war. His immortality is gone. His enemies are closing in. And the one person his starving body cannot survive without is the daughter of the man his father has sworn to destroy. ​She is a werewolf. He is a vampire. Their bond should be impossible. Their love should start a war. ​As mysterious murders shake the academy, an ancient tournament forces every student to fight for the future of the supernatural world. Every alliance carries a price. Every kiss is treason. ​Lyra and Malakai must decide whether to become the monsters their fathers raised them to be... or burn the old world to create a new one. ​Not all love stories begin with roses. Some begin with funerals.
