The Dark Forest is a place of whispers and nightmares, where few dare to tread—and even fewer survive. For Silas, the feared and unyielding Lykan King, it is just another hunting ground. But on a night when the air is thick with the scent of blood and fear, he finds her. A defiant, breathless beauty running for her life, chased by werewolves bent on her destruction. Silas doesn’t ask who she is or why they want her dead. All he knows is that she’s his. From the moment their eyes meet in the shadows, something ancient and primal takes root in his soul. He will protect her at any cost, even as she fights to escape his grasp. But she’s not just fleeing her pursuers—she’s running from a force far darker, a nightmare that even Silas’s strength may not be enough to face. And as her secrets slowly unravel, so does his iron will. He becomes consumed, his obsession burning hotter with every moment she remains just out of reach. Danger closes in from all sides, and enemies from his past rise to claim what they believe is theirs. But Silas doesn’t share. She is his mate, his salvation, and his greatest weakness. To protect her, he’ll risk his kingdom, his life, and the savage beast that roars within him. Because in the end, no one escapes the Lykan King—not even the one he would die to save.

I accidentally wear the gown Miles Graham prepared for his childhood sweetheart. To my horror, he forces me to take it off in public. "I prepared this for Nora—do you think you're worthy of wearing it? Take it off! You're dirtying it!" He knows I have serious PTSD after almost being violated, yet he insults me with those words. I look at him tearfully and beg him not to say anymore. That's when the gown's zip bursts open. My PTSD acts up. I'm so overwhelmed that I collapse on the floor and have a seizure. Miles dismisses everyone and takes Nora out on a date. He leaves me lying there in humiliation. I call my mentor before being discharged from the hospital. "Ms. Gardner, I've decided to participate in the water conservation project in Affenheim."
