Amelia never cared that her wolf hadn’t surfaced. She had a loving family, loyal friends, and a pack that embraced her despite being different. Even her Alpha reminded her she was enough just as she was. But everything changes the day she meets her fated mate—and he coldly rejects her. Devastated and heartbroken, Amelia walks away from the only life she’s ever known—her pack, her identity, and the supernatural world. Among humans, she builds a quiet life, hiding the pain and the part of herself that never fully awakened. Then Gerold finds her. A powerful Alpha with his own scars and secrets, Gerold sees something in Amelia no one else ever did: strength, fire, and untapped power. She isn’t his mate, and she wants nothing to do with Alphas or pack life—but Gerold is patient, persistent, and unwilling to let her slip away. Bit by bit, Amelia is drawn back into the world she left behind. She rediscovers joy, purpose, and the thrill of belonging. And when her wolf finally awakens, she embraces her place in Gerold’s pack, becoming a vital force in their rise. But with the upcoming Pack Game of Thrones—a brutal contest that determines dominance for the next decade—Amelia must face her past. And when she locks eyes with the mate who once broke her, everything she thought she knew shatters. Now, with truths revealed and loyalties tested, Amelia and Gerold must stand together. But can their bond survive the storm that’s coming?
