LOGINLyra Hart was nineteen when her life changed forever. Not invisible, but constantly overlooked in the world of Silvercrest Pack, she caught Kael’s attention and became close friends with him and through him, with Riven and Cassian, the heirs of the strongest packs in the region. They were her family, her confidants… and the men who would one night change everything. One reckless, drunken night at a mating ceremony, Lyra shared a fleeting intimacy with all three Alphas. When she discovered she was pregnant, she told them the truth. But instead of support, she was met with refusal and fear. Pressured by pack politics and their responsibilities, they insisted she abort the baby. Lyra chose her child instead. Betrayed, alone, and hunted by her own family, Lyra ran to the human world. For five years, she built a life as a brilliant doctor, protecting her daughter Aria and hiding from the pack world she once called home. But fate doesn’t let her stay away. Her daughter carries a rare secret, one that forces the three Alphas to seek her return. Kael’s quiet remorse, Riven’s fiery obsession, and Cassian’s guarded affection pull her back into a world of power, loyalty, and danger. Just as Lyra begins to fall for a man in the human world, her past comes crashing back. Her daughter is missing, the Alphas are in peril, and Lyra must face the very men who once betrayed her and the choice that could shatter her heart forever. Will the three Alphas unite for her and her daughter… or let the past destroy everything?

Aria was asleep in the next room, her little chest rising and falling under the faded quilt I’d bought secondhand last winter. The apartment was quiet except for the soft hum of the refrigerator and the occasional creak of the old building settling. It was just past midnight. I’d waited until she was down for the night before I let myself open the mailbox, because I didn’t trust my knees if the answer was no.I slid my thumbnail under the flap. The seal gave with a tiny, satisfying tear.One sheet of heavy letterhead. One paragraph.*Dear Ms. Lyra Hart,**We are delighted to inform you that you have been accepted to the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine for the incoming class of…*I didn’t make it past the word *
LYRA'S POVFourth year of medical school changed everything.Not just academically,thhough the rotations were intense and the residency applications consumed my life.But personally.Bryan stopped being just a friend.It happened gradually, so gradually I almost didn't notice until we were already there.A hand held a moment too long.Looks that lasted just a beat too much.Touches that made my skin warm.The careful dance of two people who wanted something but were afraid to reach for it.Until one night in October, when everything shifted.I'd been on call for thirty-six hours straight. I was exhausted, running on caffeine and adrenaline, and I'd just lost a patient—a young man who'd come in with chest pain that turned out to be a massive heart attack. We'd tried everything, but he'd died on the table.I was sitting in the hospital stairwell, trying not to fall apart, when Bryan found me."Hey," he said softly, sitting down beside me. "I heard about your patient. I'm sorry.""He was
LYRA'S POVI met Bryan on the worst day of my second year.The patient was twenty-three. Twenty weeks pregnant. She'd come in with cramping and bleeding, hope still bright in her eyes even as I took her vitals."The baby's fine, right?" she'd asked. "This is normal, right?"I'd smiled and said all the right things while my stomach twisted into knots.It wasn't normal.Two hours later, after the ultrasound confirmed no heartbeat, after the doctor delivered the news, after her screams echoed down the hallway—I'd excused myself and barely made it to the stairwell before my legs gave out.I sank onto the cold steps, pressing my palms against my eyes.Twenty weeks.The same gestational age when I'd almost lost Aria. When the contractions had started and wouldn't stop. When the doctors had told me the baby might not make it.But Aria had made it. Had fought. Had survived.This woman's baby hadn't."Hey."I looked up sharply. A man stood at the landing above me, tall, light brown hair, weari
LYRA'S POVThe acceptance letter arrived on a Tuesday.State University School of Medicine.I stared at the words until they blurred, my hands trembling so badly I nearly dropped the paper."Mama, what's that?" Aria asked from her coloring book. She was five now, dark hair falling past her shoulders, eyes that shifted between blue and gold when she forgot to hide it."A letter from the doctor school.""Open it!"I tore open the envelope with shaking fingers.*We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted...*The rest disappeared as tears filled my eyes. Six years of clawing my way up from nothing. Six years of proving everyone wrong. And now—"I got in," I whispered. "I'm going to be a doctor."Aria squealed and launched herself at me. I caught her, laughing and crying at the same time.We'd done it.---Medical school was hell.Within the first week, I understood why half the students dropped out. The reading was endless. The exams were brutal. The pressure was suffocating
