Aria Morgan has spent six years hiding the truth: she's an Omega, the rarest and most desired wolf in existence. In a world where Omegas are hunted, claimed, and controlled by powerful Alphas, she's used illegal suppressants to pass as a common  wolf, working quietly as a healer's assistant and dreaming of nothing more than staying invisible.

But when her suppressants fail at the largest inter-pack gathering in a decade, her secret detonates in front of two hundred wolves, including the most dangerous Alpha of them all.

Kael Thorne, the ruthless Alpha King of the Northern Territories, has built his empire on control. He's never found his fated mate, never let desire cloud his judgment, never lost command of his wolf. Until Aria's heat hits the banquet hall like a bomb, and suddenly every unmated male in the room is ready to kill for her, including him.

The law is clear: an Omega in heat will die without an Alpha to see her through it. Kael makes her an offer that's more threat than mercy. Seven days. His bed. His protection. Purely physical. Then she walks away and they both forget it ever happened.

But some bonds can't be broken with distance. Some addictions can't be satisfied with logic. And when an Omega and an Alpha King create a scent bond powerful enough to shake kingdoms, forgetting becomes impossible.

Now Aria's heats keep coming. Kael's ruts are triggered by her scent alone. And enemies are circling, ready to capture the unclaimed Omega who could make or destroy the most powerful wolf alive.

He swore it was temporary. She promised herself she wouldn't fall. 
Stay tuned to find out how it unravels

The message arrived three weeks after Thomas's arrest while I was reviewing protocol drafts with a Council subcommittee that had spent the last hour arguing about whether "voluntary" meant actually voluntary or voluntary with strongly encouraged participation.


My phone buzzed. Unknown number. I almost ignored it until I saw the first line of the preview and my blood went cold enough that the Council member mid-sentence stopped talking and asked if I was alright.


Another one like you. Eastern territory. They're hunting her. She doesn't know what she can do yet. Found your mother's name in old records and traced the connection. Please help. She's sixteen. They're closing in. 


I showed Kael the message under the table and watched his expression shift from focused attention on protocol language to the specific calculation he wore when immediate action became necessary.
