My father is alive. That should be good news, but knowing he's still chained up in Alpha Darius's dungeons makes everything even more painful.
Ever since that bastard invaded our pack, my life has become a living hell. We lost our lands, our homes, and most of our people. The few survivors, including my mother and me, are hiding in caves, struggling against the cold, hunger, and dwindling food supplies. While children cry from hunger and the wounded fight to stay alive, my father remains a prisoner of the man responsible for all our suffering.
Desperate, my mother decides to seek out Darius and beg him to release her husband and ensure our people's safety. However, the Alpha is only willing to negotiate under one condition: our packs must unite, and I must become his wife.
When my mother returns with the news, I feel my world shatter all over again.
“You want me to marry the man who destroyed our pack?” I ask, unable to believe what I'm hearing.
“It's the only way to save your father, Violet. And to make sure our people survive.”
I don't want to get married. Especially not to a man known for his cruelty, arrogance, and thirst for power. But I can't abandon my father to his fate, either, or allow innocent people to keep dying.
Now, I have to leave behind everything I've ever known and become the Luna of an enemy pack, sharing my life with the man I hate most.
Darius believes that by conquering my pack, he's also earned my obedience.
But there's a world of difference between forcing me to take his last name and making me accept him as my Alpha.
