On the night fate bound her to an Alpha, Nyra was rejected before the entire pack and discarded as weak, unworthy, and easy to forget. Cast out with nothing but her shattered bond, she never expected her rejection to become an invitation. The Lycan King notices what everyone else overlooked. Cold. Ruthless. Unmatched in power. He does not comfort her. He does not save her. He claims her as his own What begins as protection turns into obsession, and the bond between them burns darker and deeper than anything she has ever known. But as secrets tied to Nyra’s blood awaken and her former Alpha comes crawling back, she must decide who she will become in a world ruled by strength. Because the Lycan King does not choose twice. And once he claims what is his, he never lets go.
