Philip was rescued from rogue wolves by Nick, who died protecting him. After that, Philip took in Nick's mate, Laila, and their pup, Ray, took care of them like they were his own. For the sake of Laila and Ray, he kept asking me to compromise—again and again. Philip left me alone on our wedding anniversary to celebrate Ray's birthday.

The night Laila’s parents were murdered was the night her mate abandoned her. Covered in her parents’ blood and carrying Alpha Jason’s unborn child, Laila waited for the man she loved to return home.

But as the truth behind her parents’ murder begins to surface, Laila discovers that the people who destroyed her life are far closer than she ever imagined. This time, she isn’t back for forgiveness. She’s back to uncover the truth, reclaim what was stolen from her, and make everyone who betrayed her regret the day they underestimated her. Including the Alpha who broke her.
