Chapter 1

At the full moon banquet, I slipped away from the Alphas trying to court me and drifted, bored, into a corner.I was the daughter of the Ashford Pack Alpha — the most beautiful she-wolf in the entire southern territory. Alphas lined up to pursue me, and I couldn't be bothered to give any of them a second glance.My best friend Emily appeared at my side, her eyes glinting with mischief. "Seraphina, I've got a bet for you. Think you can make my brother fall for you? Win, and I'll give you my mother's healing moonstone necklace. Lose, and you hand over that limited-edition sports car you love so much."I raised an eyebrow. I'd been coveting that moonstone necklace for a long time. A rare gem said to accelerate a werewolf's healing — and there was only one like it in the entire territory.I glanced across the hall to where Kieran Frost stood.He was speaking quietly with a few other Alphas, his fitted black suit outlining a long, lean frame.Everyone in the werewolf territory knew it: the

I stormed out of the study, ripped off that damned black lace, and drove to the bar at the edge of the territory.Alphas and Betas kept trying to talk to me. I ignored every last one of them and drank myself numb, one glass after another.The alcohol blurred my vision, but the pain in my chest was a blade that stayed sharp.Two years. Two years of intimacy, warmth, and possession — and I had been nothing more than his experiment while he "tried someone else.""Another bottle."The bartender hesitated. "Miss, you've already had quite a bit—""I said another bottle."Through the haze, the bar door swung open. A familiar Alpha scent drifted in, and my wolf came alive instantly.Kieran.He was wearing a black shirt, his expression cold.I lifted my head, squinting through blurred vision toward the entrance. When I saw the figure beside him, my glass nearly slipped from my fingers.It was Melody Ashford. My half-sister.She was in a white dress — gentle and delicate — head slightly bowed, n

Chapter 3

I drove the three rogues off with everything I had left, then collapsed from the silver poisoning.When I opened my eyes again, I was in the healing center.My body felt like it had been taken apart. The silver was still moving through my blood, the burning spreading from my shoulder to my limbs.The door opened. Footsteps approached, carrying that familiar cedar scent.Kieran.He walked to the bedside, a delicate crystal bottle in his hand. "Moonlight herb. For silver poisoning."I kept staring at the ceiling. Didn't look at him."Let me change your bandages." He moved to step closer.I jerked away, twisting my body to avoid his hand.The movement was too fast. My shoulder wound tore open with a searing pain.I bit down on the inside of my cheek and laughed coldly. "What are you doing here? Come to check on a rogue wolf?"Kieran's eyes darkened, those ice-blue irises fixed on me."If I don't come to see you," He paused. "who else will?"That hit harder than any wound. It cut straight

After drinking the potion, I drove back to the Ashford pack estate.My stepmother Vivian was standing in the foyer. The moment she saw me, her expression curdled."Out all night. You're exactly like your shameless mother." Her arms were folded, her voice razor-edged.I set down my luggage, looked her in the face, and slapped her.The sound rang clean and sharp through the foyer.Vivian screamed and clutched her cheek, staring at me with a mix of fury and fear."A rogue she-wolf who destroyed someone else's mate bond." I said it quietly. "What gives you the right to lecture me about anything?"Footsteps thundered from upstairs. Marcus came rushing down to steady Vivian. "You come home and start trouble the second you walk in? You've disrupted this whole pack!"I watched him rush to that woman's side and felt nothing but contempt. "Give me my share of the pack's assets, and I'll leave this territory for good. You'll never see me again."Marcus's expression immediately shifted to concern.

"Mom, Dad, I'm home." Her voice dripped with sweetness.Marcus and Vivian transformed on the spot.The two people who had barely looked at me moments ago were now beaming, warm and fawning.Vivian hurried forward. "Melody's back! Are you tired? Hungry?"Marcus's gaze landed on Kieran, and he straightened immediately. "Alpha Kieran, welcome to Ashford territory. It's an honor to have you."I stood on the stairs and watched them orbit around Melody and Kieran like planets, performing for an audience.Kieran's gaze swept the room and landed on me. He frowned, just slightly. "And this is?"As if he had never seen me before.Marcus blinked. "Oh — this is my other daughter. Seraphina." Kieran gave a small nod and said nothing more. He didn't spare me another glance.Melody smiled. "She's my younger sister. Since Kieran is here, you should stay for dinner, Seraphina."Her smile was warm and gracious. The triumph in her eyes was completely naked.At the long dinner table, Melody and Kieran sa

I didn't look at him. I pushed back from the table and walked out of the estate on legs I had to force steady.My heart felt like it was about to explode.Margaret called after me from behind. I didn't answer — just quickened my pace toward the deep woods along the territory's edge."No she-wolf compares to her." Kieran's words played back like a blade, over and over.I stopped walking, tilted my head back, and looked at the moon.Then I shifted into my white wolf.I ran. I ran as hard as I could, trying to fling that sentence out of my head, trying to outrun the pain in my chest."Running away, Seraphina? You were so talkative at the dinner table." Melody's voice came from behind me.I stopped and turned. She had shifted too — smaller than me, her coat dull and mottled with brownish-grey patches. Not pure Alpha bloodline, and it showed.I laughed coldly. "You chased me out here to brag about whatever sweet nothing Kieran said to you?""Jealous, Seraphina? Makes sense — Kieran only has

Chapter 7

At Marcus's order, the guards rushed me immediately and clasped silver chains around my wrists to suppress my shift.Two guards dragged me into the silver dungeon. My knees hit the stone floor hard.Marcus stood in the doorway, his face iron. "Chain her. Silver whip. Ten lashes."A guard lifted a silver whip from the wall. In the dim light, it gleamed with a cold, killing edge. I fought with everything I had. "Marcus! What the hell is wrong with you?! I'm your daughter!"Two guards pinned my shoulders. I was forced face-down onto the floor, my back exposed.When the first lash came, I clenched my jaw tight. The silver burned through skin and went straight to bone.My consciousness began to blur. My mind, without my permission, drifted to a rainy night in a cemetery.It was the anniversary of my mother's death. I'd been sitting in the rain at her grave, not wanting to go home.Kieran had found me. He draped his jacket over my shoulders."Don't sit in the rain. You'll get sick."Then ano

He kicked the rogue wolf aside in a single motion. Everyone around them froze.So did I.But Kieran barely glanced in my direction. He turned his Alpha dominance on the auction hall manager instead. "I thought this event was restricted to Alphas. How is a rogue wolf getting in?"The manager nearly dropped to his knees apologizing.But Kieran had already turned back to Melody, his voice gentle. "I know seeing rogues unsettles you. It's handled. Don't let it ruin your evening — find something you like and I'll get it for you."Melody looked up at him, her eyes bright. "Anything I want?""Anything." His voice was quiet and indulgent.Melody smiled like a child who'd been given the world. She rose on her toes and kissed his cheek. "You're so good to me."I stood there watching, and suddenly felt like laughing.This man who was protecting his true love — and still, a second ago, had moved to protect me.What exactly did he think he was doing?I turned and pushed through the doors to the ter

Chapter 9

Kieran paused.In two years, every time I had appeared before him I'd been vivid and striking and completely put-together.He had never seen me like this.He frowned and stepped toward me quickly, reaching out as if to help me up. "What happened? How are you this injured?""Don't touch me." I stepped back and nearly fell.Kieran's expression hardened. His Alpha dominance radiated off him. "Seraphina. What are you doing? Over a few burned pages?"He looked at the charred manuscript in my arms, uncomprehending. "You didn't even flinch when you donated things worth a fortune. But now you're risking your life for scorched paper?"I laughed. It came out loud, and then the tears followed — one after another, dropping onto the blackened parchment.I raised my head and looked straight into his eyes."Brother-in-law." I said it slowly, watching the color drain from his face. "You don't understand. You'll never understand. Stay out of my business from now on."Kieran went rigid. His eyes narrowe

Chapter 10

The Alpha Council sentenced me to ten days in the silver holding cell.I sat in the corner, every wound suppressed by the silver, unable to close. My wolf was completely neutralized — I couldn't even attempt a shift.On the third day, the guard rotation changed. The new guard arrived with a smile."Miss Seraphina. Someone sent you a gift." He pressed play on a recording."Melody..." Kieran's quickened breath made my whole body go still."Do you love me?" A woman's voice, soft and coy."I love you." His voice was different — a tenderness I had never once heard from him. "There's only you. Forever.""What about my sister?" Melody pressed, playful. "Don't think I don't know you spent two years with her. She's so beautiful. You couldn't have fallen for her, could you?""Just someone to warm my bed." Then the sound of fabric, and shallow, muffled breathing. "You're the only one I've ever loved. Forever."Just someone to warm my bed.My heart was punctured a thousand times over.I covered my
