The Butcher's Bride
Some monsters wear crowns. Others earn the title.
Celeste Blackwood has spent her entire life preparing to become the perfect Luna. Raised inside the gilded walls of Blackwood Estate, she knows obedience is survival. Her future has already been decided—a political marriage to Julius Blackwood, a brilliant yet merciless heir who sees her not as a bride, but as the final piece in his terrifying experiments.
On the day she is delivered to her destiny, fate intervenes.
A brutal ambush leaves her convoy in ruins, and from the blood-soaked wreckage emerges the man whispered about in every nightmare.
Kaelen. The Butcher.
Feared as the ruthless Alpha of the Rogues, Kaelen is a warrior whose name sends powerful packs into hiding. He should have left Celeste to die. Instead, he carries her into the Dead Zone—a lawless land where survival is earned in blood and loyalty is worth more than life itself.
As Celeste is drawn deeper into the Rogue rebellion, she uncovers a truth that changes everything. She isn't an ordinary Alpha's daughter. Her bloodline belongs to an ancient race believed to have vanished centuries ago—the legendary Silver Wolf.
Now, the man she was promised to wants her as the key to creating an unstoppable empire.
The man she was taught to fear will burn the world to keep her alive.
With kingdoms on the brink of war, ancient secrets awakening, and destiny demanding its price, Celeste must embrace the beast sleeping inside her before darkness consumes every pack.
Because the greatest threat isn't the Butcher...
It's the Bride.
