To secure a fragile peace between two warring packs, a sacrifice must be made. Alpha Torin of the Midnight Pack expects the worst when he agrees to marry the daughter of his bitterest enemy. He’s heard the rumors: she is a spoiled, arrogant princess sent to spy on his people. Determined to break her spirit, Torin strips her of her titles, throws her into a freezing attic room, and forces her to work alongside the pack's lowliest servants. He waits for her to snap. He waits for her to fight back. But the girl who arrived at his packhouse isn't a princess at all. It's Evangeline—the forgotten, abused, and supposedly "wolfless" daughter her father hid from the world.

As Torin's fierce hatred turns to confusion, his inner wolf begins to roar in protest. The electric spark between them is undeniable, but Torin refuses to trust a suspected spy—even as his beast insists she is their fated mate. But a dark web of lies is unraveling. As the horrific truth of Eva's past comes to light, a dangerous secret begins to bloom in her veins. She was never wolfless; she was poisoned. And as the poison fades, the true royal Alpha heir is about to awaken. Torin wanted to break an enemy princess. Instead, he will have to spend his life kneeling before the queen he tried to ruin.

“I’m not scared of you.” “Really? Because that’s quite a fight-flight-freeze response you’ve got going on. Pupils dilated. Body quivering. Breaths fast and shallow.” He smiled. “Oh, wait, that’s not fight-flight-freeze! I’ve seen you like this before, haven’t I? Every night for a fucking year.” She licked her lips, "That was then, this is now,” she said. “Say the word and I’ll be on my knees for you in a heartbeat, same as I always was.” —------- Event planner Tessa Monroe has just come face-to-face with the man who shattered her heart two years ago. When she first agreed to a sugar daddy arrangement with David Warren—a sinfully handsome, wildly wealthy billionaire ten years her senior—she knew the rules. It was supposed to be purely financial and intensely physical. She certainly didn’t expect to fall in love with him... or that he'd fall in love with her —At least, so he'd claimed. After all, who the hell cheated on someone they claimed to love? David Warren had spent the last two years convincing himself that he hated Tessa. For the first time in his life, he'd broken his own rules, fallen in love, and risked his heart by asking her to marry him. Her rejection didn't just bruise his ego—it broke him, and he'd walked away full of hate, anger and resentment, swearing that he was done with her for good. It's been two years now, but it's obviously not enough time to quench the volatile fire between them. Walking back into each other's arms is dangerous, and playing with this much chemistry guarantees they’ll both get burned. But neither of them has ever been good at resisting the heat. Not when there's chemistry…So much chemistry.
