“She was sold to the palace as a slave. But her blood was what brought the Lycan King to his knees.” Veya was rejected by her fated mate for being a broken wolf. She thought her life was over, until her father sold her as a slave to the most ruthless Lycan King in history. King Rael Arkhelen Vor’Serrax was infamous for his bloodlust. Loyalty meant nothing to him; women were nothing more than tools to tame his brutality. He was supposed to destroy Veya in a single night. But the moment her scent reached him, the beast within bowed to her, while the King’s pride rebelled. Veya was no ordinary slave. She wielded what little privilege she had as a weapon to survive, and it only made the King’s obsession burn hotter. When the truth came out—that she was the last descendant of the Shadow Wolves—her place in the palace shifted. From a means of release to a threat to every royal concubine. From a palace slave to the sweet poison the King couldn’t let go. But the danger was far from over. An enemy from the past returned, carrying a coup that could strip them of everything. Including the brutal love slowly blooming from their deepest wounds.

In a world where loyalty bleeds and love burns, Luna Seraphina Dumaris thought her greatest sin was being unloved. But on her second wedding anniversary, she discovers the unthinkable — her husband, Alpha Rowan Dumaris, has been sharing his bed not with another woman… but with her brother. Betrayed. Shamed. Trapped in an “open marriage” she never asked for, Seraphina flees into the night and crosses into forbidden territory — the Rogue border, ruled by the Devil’s Riders, two outlaw biker Alphas feared across every kingdom. Lysander and Lucien Thornvale were once heirs to the BlueMoon Pack — until a prophecy branded them cursed. Now, they live by no Alpha’s law… until a broken Luna walks into their bar and into their lives. Her mark awakens something savage inside them — something ancient, powerful, and dangerously bound to fate. What begins as revenge spirals into obsession. Desire turns into destiny. But the curse binding them all demands a price: to save the twins, Seraphina must sacrifice herself. And as war brews between kingdoms, forbidden lovers, and fated bonds, one truth remains — sometimes, the greatest rebellion is to love who you were never meant to touch.

Because hatred was supposed to keep him alive, not make him crave the very man he vowed to destroy.
