Evie Callahan never believed in monsters—until one dragged her off the street and locked her in a world she didn’t know existed. A world where alphas rule through blood and fear. Where her name means nothing, but her blood means everything. Turns out, she’s not just human. She’s rare. Valuable. And every pack wants to own her. Especially him. Lucian Calder. Alpha of the Calder pack. Vicious. Controlling. Dangerous. And he says she’s his mate. His rules are brutal, his touch addictive, and the longer she stays, the harder it is to tell if she’s a prisoner… or truly his mate. Evie swore she’d never belong to anyone. Then the second Alpha finds her. Older. Colder. And he claims she was never meant for Lucian—that the bond they share is a lie, and that he’s the one she was born for. Now she’s caught between two powerful rivals, hunted by the council, and stalked by another. Both Alphas want her. Both would kill for her. Both are willing to burn the world for her. And neither is letting go.
View MoreA gasp left my lips, and I shoved at his chest. Hard. My palms hit solid muscle, but I didn’t stop pushing until he finally let go. My hands shook as I pressed my palm to the wall, my legs shaky.“I’m not… I’m not anybody’s.” I swallowed, my throat tight, my chest hammering so hard it felt like it might crack open.I had to get out. Away from him. Away from this place.He stepped forward like he didn’t give a damn about personal space, his breath hot on my skin.“You feel it.” His golden eyes flickered, locked onto mine.I gritted my teeth, my fingers curling into fists. My nails dug into my palms. “I don’t feel shit.”Lucian’s lips curled, but it wasn’t a smile. His jaw clenched like he was holding something back. Anger? Disgust? Whatever it was, it burned in his golden eyes, flickering over my face.I tried to step sideways, but he moved with me. Closing the distance. Blocking me in. My breathing was too fast, my pulse hammering in my ears. I needed to get out. Now.My fists uncurle
EVIETHE WOLVES were right behind me. Their snarls echoing in the dark, and I could hear their claws scraping against the ground, chasing me down. Their eyes were all I could see, glowing like flames in the night. My lungs burned with each breath, but it wasn’t enough to outrun them. No matter how fast I ran, they were closing in. I could feel them getting closer, could feel their hunger in the air. The ground beneath me seemed to shift, like it was swallowing me whole. I couldn’t see the end of the forest. My legs were giving out, but I didn’t stop.Then, I felt it.Hands so cold and rough closed around my neck, tightening. I tried to scream, but it wasn’t a scream. It was a breath, ragged and useless. The bite came next. Deep and burning like teeth sinking into my flesh, tearing me apart. Pain. Burning pain. I fought, but it was useless. Everything went black.I WOKE up with a gasp, my body jerking upright, eyes wide and frantic as I looked around. My heart slammed against my rib
EVIEI SHOULD’VE taken the main road. The thought hit me as I walked deeper into the woods, my boots pressing into damp earth. The air was thick with the smell of rain as chills ran through my body. I pulled my jacket tighter around me, not that it helped. The cold had already slipped deep in my bones. It wasn’t even that late, but Black Hollow had this way of emptying out fast once the sun went down. People didn’t stay outside. The streets went quiet, the windows dark, and if you were dumb enough to walk home alone, well… that was your mistake. Mine, apparently. The shortcut through the forest saved me a good fifteen minutes. I’d taken it a hundred times before, never thought much of it. But tonight, something felt—off. The air was too still. No rustling leaves, no distant hum of cars from the highway. Just silence.I swallowed, adjusting my grip on my bag. It’s fine. You’re just being paranoid. Except my paranoia had been right before. My fingers brushed over the sc
