Rejected and humiliated by her first fated mate, the cruel Prince, Elara is sold into slavery and broken. But fate has a second chance. When she is captured by the cold Alpha Kaelen, a forbidden heat starts because she was just being rejected by her first mate. Kaelen is the only one who can save her, but their love carries a deadly secret: their child is a prophecy that could unite all packs or kill the woman Kaelen loves. In a world of betrayal and blood, can a rejected hybrid find her power and her happily ever after?

“You’re not leaving me, Do you hear me?” Lucas' voice breaks for the first time in his life. “I don’t care about the board. I don’t care about the company. I don’t care about any damn legacy. I care about you.” The monitors beep too fast and loud. I try to smile, but another contraction steals the air from my lungs. Lucas presses his forehead to mine, his hands shaking as they frame my face. “I loved you before the contract was made," he confesses hoarsely. “Before the ring. Before the rules. That night I pulled you off the street—I was done for. You were never a strategy. You were never leveraged. You were the first woman I fell in love with.” A tear slips down his cheek. “If I have to choose,” he whispers, voice cracking, “it’s you. Every time, Madison. I would burn Gray Enterprises to the ground before I let you die.” The doctors shout. The room erupts into chaos. And suddenly the contract that started it all means nothing. >>>>> Madison Warren agreed to a contract marriage to survive humiliation. Lucas Gray agreed to protect his empire. Six months. No emotions. No promises. But love doesn’t follow clauses. When betrayal, power, and family war push Madison into early labor, Lucas is forced to choose between the throne he was born for and the woman who became his heart. He was supposed to marry her for convenience. He never expected she’d become the one thing he couldn’t live without. And as the doors to the operating room slam shut, one terrifying truth remains— What if love came too late?

They burned her for a lie. Mira Ashclaw was never meant to survive the fire—never meant to rise from the ashes of a pack that betrayed her, a mate who condemned her, and a mother who stole everything she loved. Left for dead in the forest, she should have disappeared into nothing. Instead, she is found by monsters. Taken in by Darkscar Pack, ruled by the feared Mad Alpha Brothers, Mira awakens changed—her memories fractured, her body altered, and something ancient stirring beneath her skin. The pack watches her. The alphas don’t trust her. Yet their wolves crave her presence in ways they can’t explain. As the past claws its way back and the truth behind her burning begins to surface, Mira realizes survival was never her fate. Vengeance was. And this time, she won’t burn alone.
