Eva had spent her entire life being reminded of what she was.An omega.The unwanted daughter of a powerful Alpha, born to a woman her father never considered worthy of his name. She grew up beneath the same roof as her legitimate siblings—but never as one of them.She was forbidden from sitting at the family table.Forbidden from speaking when important guests were present.And certainly forbidden from dreaming of power.Until the day her father announces her marriage to Alpha Lucas—the heir to the most powerful pack in Erion and the man destined to become the next Alpha King.Lucas is everything Eva has been taught to fear: cold, ruthless, impossibly powerful, and incapable of tolerating weakness.Their marriage is nothing more than a political arrangement.Lucas needs an omega bride to secure his succession.Eva's family needs the alliance to protect their position.Neither expects love.Neither expects loyalty.And neither expects Eva.Because the despised omega who enters Lucas's palace isn't the helpless girl her family believes her to be.She has spent her entire life learning how powerful people think.Now, she's finally been given a seat at their table.And Eva has no intention of remaining beneath anyone.
