Dark Matter A Novel

Three souls. One bond. No way out. When Alpha wolf Rhett Calder arrives at the Moon Summit to broker peace between warring packs, the last thing he expects is to be hit with the mating bond. Twice. He’s fated to Mira Ellan, a sharp-tongued enforcer with a painful past and zero interest in destiny. But the bond doesn’t stop there—it also pulses between Rhett and a complete stranger: Jace Rowan, a quiet Beta with haunted eyes and a loyalty that runs deep. Neither man has ever desired another male, yet their souls burn for each other with the same pull they feel for Mira. Confused, drawn, and dangerously tempted, the three are forced together by fate—and hunted by those who see their triad as a threat to tradition. As the mating bond tightens and ancient power awakens, passion turns into loyalty, and strangers into something much more. But when secrets surface and betrayal lurks in the shadows, love alone may not be enough to protect them. Because the most dangerous thing in the world… is a bond the old world refuses to accept.

Amelia never believed in the legends whispered about the forest. Until one night, beneath the full moon, her eyes met his—eyes that burned gold and promised danger. Shadow isn’t human. But he isn’t a monster, either. He is something ancient. Exiled. Desired. Cursed. He warned her: “I’m a problem you don’t need.” But she had already chosen him. And now… there’s no turning back. In a world where secrets breathe beneath the skin and packs don’t forgive weakness, Amelia and Shadow are fated to burn. Between howls, stolen kisses, and wars whispered in the dark, a forbidden bond awakens—a pull as fierce as it is fatal. A romance as wild as the full moon. A passion that could save them… or consume them both.
