When Gwendolyn Lee Grace lands her first nursing job after graduation, she’s thrilled — until she realizes her new position is a live-in caretaker for the reclusive patriarch of the wealthy Bearanstein family. Their sprawling mountain estate is as mysterious as its owners… and none more so than Arthur Bearanstein III — the brooding, impossibly gorgeous heir everyone calls Baby Bear. Arthur’s life is already ruled by duty. As the only son, he’s next in line to inherit the Alpha position from his ailing father.

In a world where love can awaken the beast, sometimes “just right” means fated.

Hunted as the last survivor of a disgraced bloodline... Lyra Vale was supposed to die beneath the execution blade. Branded a witch. Hunted as the last survivor of a disgraced bloodline. Dragged before the kingdom that slaughtered her family, she expects death—not the ancient magic buried inside her to awaken before the entire royal court. Then the prophecy arrives. The Bone Crown has chosen her. Now the kingdom fears her existence, the Church demands her execution, and the shadows beneath the capital are beginning to wake. Worst of all, Crown Prince Cassian Draeven refuses to let her go.

The kind of man people obey before he even speaks. And according to the prophecy, he is destined to destroy the world. Forced into the deadly heart of the royal palace, Lyra becomes trapped between assassins, forbidden magic, court betrayals, and a prince whose obsession with her grows more dangerous by the day.

And the throne of Varethis was built over something ancient that should have never awakened.

For nineteen years, I believed I was just a fragile human adopted by a werewolf pack. I kept my head down, learned to fight, and prayed I could survive three years at Viremont Academy, the brutal training ground for the supernatural elite. But the day I arrived, I broke their world. When I touched the ancient ranking crystal, it didn’t just reject me. It shattered. And the system flashed a single, terrifying word: UNKNOWN. Suddenly, I’m the obsession of the four most dangerous heirs in the academy. Darian, my fiercely possessive childhood werewolf friend who now looks at me with a dark new hunger. Zayden, a ruthless dragon prince whose royal blood instinctively bows to my presence. Lucius, a morally grey warlock holding all the forbidden secrets. And Jarek, an untamed saber-tooth shifter driven by a terrifying, primal need to claim me. They despise each other. They refuse to share. But they are inexplicably, dangerously drawn to me. They think I’m just a glitch in the system. A mystery to be unraveled or a prize to be won. But there’s a reason my blood makes their ancient magic sing. There’s a reason the shadows in this academy are watching my every move. I am not human. I am not a wolf. I’m something much older, and much deadlier. They say the magic sealed inside me will either unite this world or burn it to the ground. If these four lethal men don't stop fighting over me... I might just let it burn.
