Chapter 1

"Back me up at Lunara Estate. I'll throw in extra."The wolf tilted his head. "You that sure of yourself?"I just grinned. Damn right I was.Because Lunara Estate? It belonged to my father.Mack had no clue the broke girl juggling loans and part-time gigs was actually the Stormhowl Pack's Alpha's daughter. It was the North's most dominant pack.To claim it, I had to stay off-grid in the South for a year. No names. No power plays.Dad said I couldn't reveal who I was.He never said I couldn't wreck a mutt who needed humbling.Since Mack was dumb enough to flash that smug face at me, slapping it felt like a personal favor to the Moon Goddess.I squeezed the wolf's hand. "Name.""Caden." He smirked, rubbing his jaw. "If we're hitting him in the face, I'll need clothes that don't reek of roadkill.""No problem."I hauled him straight to the mall.Got him a sharp outfit—just not the high-end kind. Had to keep up the broke, dumped college girl act alive.***7:00 p.m., Lunara

Chapter 2

Caden's "home"? Total dump.Right on the Neutral Zone border, tucked beside a rank heap of prey bones. Lawn looked like it hadn't seen a mower in years—vines crawling up the walls like they wanted inside."This is seriously your place?"I picked my way around puddles in heels that were 100% not made for this."Staff dorm."He unlocked the door. The metal shrieked like it hated being touched.Inside? Weirdly spotless. One bed. One beat-up couch. Everything lined up like he lived with a drill sergeant."You take the bed. I'll crash on the couch."He shrugged off his blazer, dropped it over a chair. That white shirt? Painted on. Every line of muscle just... there.I swallowed hard. Okay, rude how good he looked."So, what do you even do?"Hot face, hotter body—living in this place? Didn't track."Club server," he said, grabbing a water bottle from the fridge and tossing it my way.I squinted, eyeing him head to toe.Club? Server?That whole "But for that price? You're barel

Chapter 3

Then outta nowhere, Winona tagged me on social media—on purpose.She dropped an invite to the wildest werewolf hotspot in the Neutral Zone: Howl Bar."We're going. No, we HAVE to." I smacked the table. "And I'm dragging a plus one."Caden was sunk into the couch, gaming."Caden. Up. We're going out.""Busy.""I'll pay extra.""Done." He chucked his phone, stood, and straightened his shirt. "What am I this time? Cocky CEO or washed-up heir with a trust fund?""Just don't say you're an escort again like last time," I muttered.***We hit Howl Bar—already packed with smoke and sweat.Dead center sat Winona, soaking up the spotlight like she was the Luna. Wolves hovered, drooling over her in that cheap white dress and the same so-called "limited edition" bag.Mack was posted up next to her, wolf ears out, letting Winona toy with them.The second we walked in, the place went dead quiet.Winona's voice cut through the air. "Well, if it isn't Skylar. I figured shame would keep y

Chapter 4

After putting Winona in her place, things chilled—for like, a second.Then he called.My runaway father. The same Alpha who bailed on the pack to chase thrills across the globe."Skylar, how's the trial? Still breathing?""Thanks to you, I'm thriving," I bit back."Good. One last task. Finish it, and you're done.""What kind of task?""The Crestborne Pack's sealing a trade deal with humans today. Neutral Zone Trade Center. Take someone. Blow it up. Wreck the whole thing."I just... blinked.How much did he hate Crestborne?They weren't just strong—they ruled the South. Their Alpha? Lethal. Their heir? Worse.This wasn't a mission.It was a death sentence.But if I wanted out of this cursed trial... I had to take the hit.I hung up and turned to Caden. He was mid-toothbrush."Caden, I need a favor."He spit. "Another roleplay? What's the vibe—daddy issues or hostile takeover?""Somewhere in between. I'm crashing Crestborne's trade deal. Need backup."His toothbrush sli

I froze.No. Freaking. Way.Roland Pritzker.I hadn't seen that relic in five years—not since my dad's deal talks with the humans.And now, boom—instant recognition?I was masked head to toe. Only my damn eyes showing. How'd that fossil clock me so fast?Was his nose better than ours?"Run!"I grabbed Caden's arm and bolted.Behind us, Roland called out—way too loud and way too cheerful:"Don't run! Perfect timing—the Crestborne Alpha Heir's here too! Let's all have a little chat?"Alpha Heir?Where?!I whipped around——and stared straight at Caden.He had his back to Roland, yanking his mask up like it might save his life.In a fake-deep voice, he muttered, "Uh... never heard of Skylar. Just here to mop floors."Roland squinted. "He really looks like Alpha Heir... from behind."Nope. Not today.I grabbed Caden by the collar, popped up on my toes—and kissed him.He went stiff—then pulled me in, hand on my head, like this was some epic mate-bond moment.Roland clear

Caden looked away. "Wh–What? Of course not."I didn't buy it, but I let it slide. For now.Honestly, I'd rather believe he was my dad's secret bastard than accept he might be the infamous, acne-scarred Crestborne Alpha Heir everyone whispered about.But the calm didn't last.Because Mack showed up. Again.After getting kicked out of Howl Bar, things went nuclear with Winona. Word was, her dad—the Frostmoon Pack Beta—ripped into him for not protecting her and embarrassing the whole pack.He tore Mack a new one in front of everyone. Engagement? Over.So now Mack had the audacity to crawl back to me.Guess he figured if I had access to a supercar—stolen or not—I must've landed a loaded mate.Caden and I were just about to head out to hunt rabbits when we opened the door—and bam. Mack. Standing there like a bad rash, clutching a half-dead bouquet of roses."Skylar, I was wrong," he said, eyes all fake and watery. "Losing you made me realize... you're the one I love most. I don't

Chapter 7

That night, deep in the woods, Caden and I were tearing into fresh rabbit when my phone buzzed.Three texts lit up the screen—Dad.[Your trial's done. One night left. Get back to the pack.][Or I come south—and you'll regret losing the Lunara Tear.][I heard the Crestborne Alpha Heir's heading home. Finalize the bond.]I froze mid-bite. Thought Dad hated that pack.My eyes flicked to Caden. Maybe I should bring him north with me?But he wasn't eating anymore. Just staring at the rabbit. Jaw clenched. Shoulders locked.Off. Way off.I nudged him. "Hey. What is it?"Caden let out this dry, hollow laugh. "I might... have to leave."My chest tightened. "Leave? Where?""No, not like that." He turned to face me, serious now. "Skylar, I lied. I'm not just some server."My heart was already pounding. 'Great. He's about to say he's one of those sleazy wolves who sells his body for cash.'"I screwed up," he said. "I have to run. I'm a spy. I stole intel from Crestborne."They're h

Chapter 8

Back in Stormhowl territory, I was trapped under a swarm of stylists for three brutal hours."Lady Skylar, what happened to your skin? It's so rough now—did you stop using the serum I gave you?" One of them grazed my cheek like I was some kind of tragic makeover case."Less talk, more work." My head was already spinning with Caden.Tonight was the big engagement banquet—Stormhowl Pack locking ties with Crestborne Pack.Dad said I had no choice. Time to meet the Crestborne Alpha Heir. Lucky me.Eight o'clock. Ballroom buzzed.I stepped in on my father's arm, rocking a custom gown that stole the spotlight.Didn't care. My eyes were already scanning the crowd.Ridiculous, I knew. But some part of me still hoped I'd spot him."Congratulations!"Guests swarmed in with fake smiles and empty blessings.Father lit up. "Thank you, thank you. Tonight's all about the young wolves."Then the crowd shifted near the doors."The Crestborne Pack is here!"I looked up.Gareth, the Crestb

Chapter 9

I burned with rage. "You really are like a curse that won't quit."Mack sneered. "It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, Winona wouldn't have dumped me. You ruined everything—my future, my life!"I had NOTHING when I was with you. Just shame for dating some broke nobody. Then we break up, and suddenly you're the Stormhowl royalty?!"How could I NOT hate you?!"I laughed—cold, sharp, furious. "So your poverty's MY fault now? Do you even hear yourself?"He flinched. Exposed."You wolves with noble blood," he spat, "you'll never get it—what it's like scraping by at the bottom."Then his eyes cut to Caden, and that venomous smirk twisted across his face."So this is what the Alpha Heir of Crestborne picked up? Trash I already threw out? Pathetic."I lunged to slap him, but Caden beat me to it.He ripped the silver blade from his arm and pressed it to Mack's face. "Blood doesn't define you. Omega or Alpha—that's just your starting line. Where you end up? That's on you."And
