Noong andito siya wala naman kaming naging espesyal na koneksyon, isang buwan ko siyang nakasama, inaruga at inintindi. Sa sobrang gwapo niya at di maikakailang dayuhan siya mula ulo hanggang paa, hanggang ngayon di ko alam kung ano ang dahilan ng kanyang pagkaligaw sa lugar namin at bakit ganoon ang kanyang naging sitwasyon ng mga oras na iyon at kung bakit sa dinami-daming tao sa mundo, ako ang pinagkatiwalaan niya.

I was with Don Massimo for five years. The whole time, he never hid his favorite: Cara. His driver’s daughter. The man who took a bullet for him. He called it paying a debt. Like a fool, I bought it. He gave her jewels. Fast cars. He even bought her an island. Three days before the wedding, I found out he'd moved the venue. Not to my family's estate in Sicily. But to the island. Her island. His excuse? Cara was claustrophobic. Couldn't handle a big indoor wedding. I was done. Three days later, the wedding happened on that island. But the bride was a no-show. Massimo was publicly humiliated. He tore the city apart looking for me. That’s when he found out. He thought he was marrying me. Instead, I married his greatest enemy. Nikolai Volkov. The Godfather of the Russian Bratva. He ditched Cara. He ran to my family's estate and waited. Seven days and nights. With flowers, a ring, and a whole lot of begging.

I came here on a scholarship. No parents. No safety net. Just brains, bruises, and a shot at a better life. Now they want me on the hockey team? I’ve never even touched a stick. And if I say no—I lose everything. The only thing colder than the rink is how they look at me. The rich girls with their designer skates and perfect smiles. The coach who’d rather pretend I don’t exist. And him—Jaxon Reid, the team’s golden boy, who skates like sin and speaks with his eyes more than his mouth. He thinks I’m a joke. They all do. But I’ve fought for every inch of my life, and I’m not about to back down now. Not when college is the only thing standing between me and going back to nothing. So I’ll lace up. I’ll fall, I’ll bruise, I’ll bleed if I have to. And maybe—just maybe—I’ll learn how to play their game better than they do. Because survival isn’t about being the best. It’s about refusing to lose.

She was sent as a peace offering. She arrived as something they had no law for. When Ivy Voss is traded across Pack borders to seal her father's treaty, she expects politics, cold stares, and a year she can survive with her dignity intact. What she doesn't expect is Caelum Dusk, the Alpha's quiet, steady brother who looks at her like she's something worth keeping. Or Rook Vane, the enforcer who followed her from the Syndicate, who knows every dangerous thing about her, and whose orders she just discovered are not what she was told. One man offers her roots. The other offers her wings. The Pack's ancient laws have no word for a woman who wants to grow both. As the treaty fractures and an enemy neither side anticipated makes its move, Ivy must reckon with the wolf she never knew she was and the life she never knew she wanted. Love has territory too. And some borders, once crossed, cannot be uncrossed. In Ashveil, peace is never free. And neither is she.

"You don’t scare me, Llewellyn,” I lifted my chin as I spoke even though my pulse betrayed me.
