Taming the Ruthless Alpha

Rule #1 of the Blackwood Alpha Institute: Only the strongest Alphas survive. Rule #2: No girls allowed. Rule #3: Never cross Valen Thorne. Elora Vance is about to break every single one of them. Born in the shadows of the cursed woods is Elora, the daughter of a banished Alpha framed for the deadliest crime. To clear her father’s name and save her dying village, she must do the impossible. She cuts her hair, binds her breasts, and sneaks into the most brutal, elite, all-boys werewolf academy in the kingdom. Operating under the male alias Lucius, her security relies entirely on a potion that masks her feminine scent, it gives her an Alpha musk that expires every three hours. One missed dose, and the den of hyper-sensitive Alphas will tear her into pieces. She planned to stay invisible, steal the files and flee. But on her first day, a mistake throws her straight into the path of Valen Thorne. Cold, devastatingly beautiful, and dripping with power, Valen rules the Alpha's of the institute with an iron fist. He is a predator who smells a lie from a mile away, and he becomes instantly obsessed with breaking the strange, fragile new "Alpha" who refuses to bow to him. When a forced dorm reassignment traps Elora in a luxury suite right under Valen, her safety net shatters. Valen plays a suffocating game of cat and mouse, testing Elora's limits. Every touch is a gamble, every look from his golden eyes feels like he’s peeling back her clothes to find the girl underneath. Trapped between deadly academy trials, a backstabbing inner circle, and an intoxicating, forbidden pull to the man she came to ruin, Elora is running out of time. She came to steal a secret, but if Valen uncovers the truth, she's dead.
