To keep her hidden agenda from tearing her life apart, she must navigate a scorching, reluctant bond with a ruler who is determined to strip away her secrets piece by piece. She quickly learns that survival means keeping her guard up at all costs, because the dangerous King holding her captive is a master strategist—and the true monster hiding behind his royal title has nothing to do with his wolf.
