"The scent of blood lingered in the air, thick and suffocating. Kai’s grip on Violet’s wrist tightened as he whispered, his voice laced with something she couldn’t quite place—fear or anger, she didn't know. ‘Tell me the truth, Violet. Who is that child?’ Her lips trembled. She wanted to lie, to run again like she had all those years ago. But the moment his glowing eyes bore into hers, she knew there was no escape this time. Not from him. Not from the past. And certainly not from the truth that would shatter everything." Violet Flere never planned to return. She never planned to knock on his door. But desperation has a funny way of making people do the unthinkable. Years ago, she fled from Kai Thorne, from the world of wolves and the dangers that came with it.

Kai was never a man to beg, never a man to break. But when she appears after all this time, standing on his doorstep with secrets she refuses to speak, he realizes something is different. She’s different. And there’s a child with her—a child whose presence sets his blood on fire in ways he doesn’t understand. There are whispers in the dark. Of an enemy who never truly died. Of a past that refuses to stay buried. Of a truth so twisted it threatens to consume them all.

And a name spoken in the dark that makes even the strongest wolves shudder.Something is coming. Something no one understands.And this time, running won’t save her.Violet thought she left that world behind. Kai thought he had moved on. But fate doesn’t care about their choices. It never has.
