**He rejected me in front of hundred of wolves. I said the words back, but the bond refused to break. After eleven months of humiliation, I returned to Silverfang expecting one final ritual: sever the mate bond, walk away, and disappear. Instead, the severance failed. Then the Lycan King arrived. Aldren of Blackthorn could claim me with a single command. Every wolf in the territory would have accepted it. He didn't. He gave me a choice. That should have been the safest thing a man could offer me. It wasn't. Because the name I've lived under all my life is a lie. The deeper I dig of who I am, the more dangerous the truth becomes. My mother's grave is empty. The Crown has been calling my name. And something wearing familiar faces has begun hunting me.

False letters. Jealous rivals. Betrayals so convincing that even the man I trust most may become my enemy. If I break the bonds controlling the Seven Territories, I could set thousands of wolves free. Or I could become powerful enough to control them all. Everyone expects me to choose a king, but they've forgotten one thing. I was born to decide what a bond means. And when the Moon finally asks me whom I belong to, I won't choose the man fate gave me. I'll choose the man who lets me walk away.
