I kept it hidden from the entire Moonshadow Pack — the private mate contract I signed with Darren, the current Alpha. Every time he rushed off to spend the heat season with his Omega childhood sweetheart, the wolf inside me howled in agony, tearing itself apart. Every time, he would whisper his empty promises, "Once she's stable, we'll hold the Luna crowning ceremony." For three years, he made that promise ninety-nine times — and skipped the ceremony ninety-nine times. The first time, her wolf died unexpectedly, and he claimed the Moon Goddess had forbidden the ceremony. The second time, her heat struck suddenly, and he abandoned me, throwing himself into her bed. After that, every time there was supposed to be a ceremony, something happened to her — and somehow, he was always right there by her side. Every time, I broke down, screaming, drowning in heartbreak. However, he always looked down on me, his voice calm, detached: "She's just a temporary mate for physical needs. You should understand." After the ninety-ninth broken promise, the wolf inside me finally went silent. I placed a "Mate Contract Termination Application" on his desk. "From now on, in the eyes of the Moon Goddess, I'm no longer yours in any way."

Ravenna had always been the black sheep of her pack—an omega with no wolf, no power, and no protection except for the promise of a mate bond with Lucas, the Alpha’s heir. But that promise shatters the night of the mating ceremony, when Lucas publicly rejects her and secretly sells her to a group of rogues. Drugged, betrayed, and left for the rogues literally—Ravenna is saved by a stranger whose face she barely remembers but whose touch awakens something wild and forbidden inside her. What begins as a desperate, heat-fueled encounter leaves her broken, ashamed… and haunted by the memory of a man whose name she doesn’t know. Until she meets her new college professor. Professor Greens is cold, feared, and untouchable. But one look into his eyes tells Ravenna he’s the man from that night. He knows who she is. He knows what happened. And he’s hiding a truth that could get them both killed—he’s a Lycan, and he’s her true mate. As Ravenna struggles with the humiliation of rejection, the danger of her pack's laws, and the brutal truth about her own identity, she must decide whether to walk away from the one person who might make her stronger to protect him or risk everything to claim the power buried deep within her blood.
