"He wasn't supposed to survive. Falling for her might be what finally kills him." Viana Dan Silvervale skates to survive, not to dream. Rent and her mom's medical bills don't leave room for anything else, least of all billionaires who buy rinks just to steal her ice time. Cross Alex Morvath plays hockey like he's got something to prove, and he does. He's the last alpha of a wolf line everyone thinks is dead. He's not supposed to want a human. He's definitely not supposed to want her. But the second their eyes meet on the ice, his wolf picks its mate, and Cross doesn't do "no." Viana doesn't do "yes" to billionaires who look at her like she's prey, not until he offers her a way out of rent she can't refuse. Too bad her body's already decided he's hers too. One rink. One contract. One secret that could get her killed. One boy who falls first, hard, and possessively. One girl who’s about to find out that some monsters don't chase… they claim.

In the land of wolves, Dawn Celestia Elwood was thrown into a sea of uncertainty when her mate's rejection left scars that almost destroyed her. Determined to pick up the pieces of her broken heart and heal, she leaves her pack, seeking refuge to tame her troubled heart. However, just like an intertwined locket, some red string of fate decides to interfere and mend her in a different way, as she unexpectedly meets the feared Alpha — Dark Van Hanzen. Living up to his name, he was a wolf burned by his own past darkness. Yet, despite his evil exterior and ice-cold heart, something about Dawn draws him in, as he can't seem to resist her inner Luna. Their tortured souls call one another in both the lightest and darkest way they could've ever imagined, forming a bond that just might be strong enough to heal them both. However, their world is at war, and packs tear each other apart in the never-ending cycle of carnage and chaos. And so as revenge reigns and haunts them both one way or another, they're now forced to play in a dangerous fire and a cruel game... they must rise to win. Against all odds, will they have a fighting chance to change it all? Will their bond be able to find redemption among the ruins and downfall?
