LOGINFive years after being forced into a bond she never chose, Allene finally breaks free—only to awaken a power no one knew she possessed. Rejected, hunted and betrayed by the pack she sacrificed everything for, Allene escapes into the arms of Draven, the feared rogue leader and sworn enemy of her former mate. Their union is meant to be political. Temporary and a weapon of revenge. But as forbidden alliances form, old crimes resurface, and a deadly race pits rogues against alphas, Allene discovers that her enemies are closer than she imagined—and that her own blood may hold secrets capable of shaking the Alpha Council itself. In a world ruled by dominance, bonds, and lies, one woman’s rejection may ignite a war no one survives.
View MoreDraven’s POVSomething felt wrong the moment I stepped onto the training grounds, and it wasn’t the kind of feeling you could ignore or brush aside as nerves before a big race. It sat low in my chest, heavy and quiet, like a warning I hadn’t fully understood yet but couldn’t shake off either. I slowed my steps as I walked in, my eyes moving across the riders, taking in everything without saying a word at first.They were too loud.Too restless.Too… off.Engines were already running even though no one had given the signal to start, and instead of the usual focus I had come to expect from them under Allene’s training, there was something else in the air. A kind of wild energy that didn’t belong here. One of them nearly clipped another bike and didn’t even bother to apologize, just laughed it off like it was nothing, like control didn’t matter anymore.That wasn’t how we trained.That wasn’t what she taught them.I stopped a few steps behind her, watching as she tried to gather them, h
Allene’s POVSomething was wrong.I felt it before I even understood it.The moment I stepped into the training grounds that morning, the air felt… off. Heavy. Loud in a strange way. The racers were already there, engines running, voices raised, movements sharp and restless like they had been waiting too long for something.Too much energy.Too much noise.Too much… aggression.I stood there for a moment, just watching, my eyes moving from one rider to another. One of them nearly knocked into another bike, not even slowing down, just shouting something and speeding off like it didn’t matter.That wasn’t normal.Not here.Not under my training.“Line up!” I called out, my voice cutting through the noise.It took longer than usual for them to respond. A few ignored me at first. One even laughed like I had made a joke.My chest tightened.That had never happened before.“Now,” I said again, firmer this time.Slowly, they came together, but even then, they couldn’t stay still. Some were s
Leo ard povThe door had barely closed behind Kattie before the room fell into silence again.Leonard stood there for a while, not moving, his eyes still on the door like he could see through it. His expression did not change, but something in his gaze shifted slowly, like pieces in his mind were settling into place.Then, after a few seconds, he let out a quiet breath and turned away.He picked up his glass again, staring into the drink, watching the liquid move slightly with his hand. Everything was working. Slowly, but it was working. Kattie was doing her part, the racers had already taken what was given to them, and soon, very soon, things would begin to fall apart inside Obsidian.And when they did… he would be ready.A soft knock came at the door again.This time, he did not hesitate.“Come in.”The door opened gently, and she stepped in.The woman from the night before.She carried a small bag in her hand, the smell of food filling the room almost immediately. She looked relaxe
Kattie’s POVThe motel looked the same as always, quiet and almost empty, like a place that belonged to no one and everyone at the same time. Kattie paused for a long moment outside, crossing her arms lightly over her chest, feeling the cool air brush against her skin. She told herself she was calm, that she had thought everything through, but inside, her stomach twisted. Something about today felt different.Something about Leonard felt… different. The calm that he’d shown at the council didn’t ease her nerves—it made her nervous in a way that only those who had seen his temper knew. Calm Leonard could be worse than angry Leonard.Calmer meant he was thinking, and thinking meant he was dangerous.Her boots clicked softly against the concrete as she walked down the narrow hallway, her steps slower than usual. She tried to rehearse what she would say, how she would apologize without giving away too much, how she could gauge what he was thinking without making him suspicious. Her mind
