A low-ranking omega fleeing a forced marriage triggers a deadly pack war when she is claimed by a ruthless rival Alpha who is her fated mate.

When the fated mate bond snaps between two heirs born to hate each other, it doesn't end a thirty-year war. It ignites one.Kaia Ashgrove has spent her whole life training to fight the Voss pack — the enemies who took her mother from her. She sits on her father's war council, sharp and unyielding, certain of exactly who she is and who she's supposed to destroy.Then she meets Rhys Voss, heir to everything she's sworn to burn down, and the bond hits like a blade to the chest. Fate doesn't care about blood feuds. It doesn't care that both packs would rather see them dead than mated.But the war didn't start the way either of them was told. Someone buried a truth thirty years deep — a lie both their fathers have carried in silence ever since — and it may be the only thing standing between them and a bond neither of them can outrun.Some mates are meant to heal a broken world.Kaia and Rhys might be the only two people who can end one.

For seventeen years, Elena Vale believed she was nobody — an orphaned ward living in the shadow of a powerful House that took her in out of pity. Then, on the night of her eighteenth birthday, a stranger tells her the truth: her family didn't die. They were erased. Before she can demand answers, he vanishes — and the Vale family declares that Elena Vale has never existed. Hunted by the people who raised her, Elena discovers a forbidden bloodline, a magic she was never taught to control, and a conspiracy that reaches all the way to the throne. Every step toward the truth strips away another lie she was raised to believe. But the deepest betrayal isn't the family that erased her. It's the one person who never lied to her outright — and never told her the truth either.
