I never imagined betrayal could burn like this, until I walked in on my husband, screwing another woman, and everything I’d given ripped from me. Divorced, humiliated, my child torn from my arms, I fled to the city… a place ruled by power, desire, and danger. That’s when they found me. Four Alphas, impossible, relentless, and fated to me. They claimed me before I knew how to fight back. Their hands, their whispers, the heat of their bodies pressed against mine, leaving me trembling, aching, and alive in ways I’d never known. I came to Lunaris City with a single purpose: to rise above the law and reclaim what was stolen from me. But the four Alphas who stake their claim, the insatiable beasts who awaken every primal hunger, aren’t letting go. As danger, lust, and power swirl around me, I realize that to win what’s mine, I may have to surrender to all four of them… completely.
