Alternate Universe to "The Fate of the Alpha's Orphaned Daughter" and "The Lost Graystone Princess" TRIGGER WARNING: This novel contains scenes depicting physical and emotional abuse Daisy Louise Harmony Thompson lives a carefully constructed lie. Hidden within a human community under witness protection, she works at her Uncle Mateo's Sneakz Burger Emporium while concealing a truth that could get her killed—she's the orphaned daughter of a murdered Alpha wolf, protected only by a mysterious pendant she must never draw attention to. When strange wolves begin appearing at the diner—including a suspicious couple ordering the potentially lethal "Volcanic Sauce"—Daisy's carefully maintained world begins to unravel. The Steel twins, Alphas Maison and Jackson, frequent the diner with their pack members who mock and torment Daisy, unaware of her true identity. But Maison's inexplicable fixation on her suggests something deeper at play. As rogue wolves increasingly breach territory boundaries and whispers of a "rogue king" circulate, Daisy finds herself caught between warring wolf factions. When an unexpected physical connection with Maison triggers dormant wolf instincts she's spent years suppressing, Daisy discovers shocking truths about her lineage and the pendant she carries. Forced to flee her adoptive home, Daisy must navigate brutal pack politics while confronting years of abuse at the hands of those meant to protect her. The bonds forming between her and the Steel twins—particularly the enigmatic Maison—complicate her plans to remain hidden. With enemies closing in and her identity exposed, Daisy must embrace her heritage and the power she's denied for so long. Only by forging new bonds under the moonlight can she hope to survive a conspiracy that reaches back to her parents' mysterious deaths and threatens to ignite an all-out war between packs.

"Please," I whisper as his teeth graze my neck, my body betraying every promise I made to keep him at a distance. "We can't—" "Can't?" His laugh is dark, dangerous. "Your wolf is screaming for me, Fin. I can smell how much you want this." His hands pin my wrists above my head, his body pressing mine against the wall. "Tell me to stop. Tell me you don't dream about my hands on your skin, my mark on your throat." His lips brush my ear, voice rough with need. "Tell me, and I'll walk away.
