She was condemned as a traitor. Her own mate rejected her. But the Moon Goddess had other plans.
Karen Denmark never expected to die at dawn—least of all at the hands of the pack she once served. Accused of murdering the Luna and conspiring with rogues, she is publicly rejected by Alpha Xavier and thrown into a dungeon, her soul bond shredded and her world in ruins.
A daring rescue gives her a desperate chance to flee. Bleeding and broken, Karen crosses into enemy territory—only to be captured by a stranger whose presence ignites a fire she thought long dead. He is Alpha Zaiden, powerful, ruthless, and dangerously possessive. Her wolf whispers one word: Mate.
But Zaiden trusts no one. He demands the truth about her past, and when she hesitates, he threatens to return her to the pack that wants her dead. Desperate, Karen reveals everything—the framed footage, the false testimonies, the conspiracy that destroyed her life.
Yet Zaiden isn't moved by pity. He claims her as his own, binding her in a ceremony that feels both like salvation and a cage. Now, rogues are closing in, and Xavier will soon learn she is alive. With enemies on every side and a mate who demands total surrender, Karen must decide: can she trust Zaiden to protect her, or will history repeat itself and leave her broken all over again?
