Being born an omega is different from being made an omega by your brother. Meet Ella… Everything falls apart for Ella in just one day. Her pack kicks her out of her position as their protector, drops her to the lowest rank possible, and her mate rejects her. They even wore her silver bangles on her wrists that took away her wolf powers. Heartbroken and ashamed, she runs into the forest to get away from it all. In the woods, she meets a mysterious injured man. They spend one night together, finding comfort in each other when she needs it most. But he disappears by morning, and her pack catches her and drags her back home, where things only get worse. Then the Lycan King shows up at her pack, insisting she come with him. She agrees, mainly because she just wants to escape. But there's something the King isn't telling her. It turns out he's under a curse that's been tormenting him forever. To break it, he needs his true mate - and that's where Ella comes in. She could be his way out, but helping him might destroy her in the process. As Ella tries to figure out life in the Lycan King's world, she learns something huge: she's the Red Wolf from the old stories, meant for great things but also marked for sacrifice. Now she's dealing with pack hatred, deadly enemies, and an unexpected pregnancy on the way. She has to decide if she can trust her mate… who might either save her or be the cause of her death. With enemies everywhere and her life on the line, Ella needs to find the courage to fight for her freedom and her family's future, even if that means facing the curse foolishly.
