He was born for war.
She was raised in chains.
The bond between them was never meant to form-but once it sparks, it cannot be undone.
When Kael, the ruthless Alpha of Bloodfang, claims Elara as his ward, it's only to keep her alive-not to fall for her. Her scent haunts him. Her silence stirs his dormant wolf. And when she defies him with a single look, something long-dead in him begins to burn.
Elara doesn't want a bond. Especially not with the alpha who destroyed her people. But when she learns her brother is still alive in Kael's dungeon, she strikes a deal: one night, one truth, and then she walks.
But fate has other plans.
As war brews, betrayal festers, and hearts are shattered, Kael must choose: power or love. And Elara must decide if the wolf who ruined her can be the one who saves her.
