To settle her father’s life-threatening debt, Seraphina Ashlyn signs a contract she never fully understands—one that binds her in marriage to Darius Nightfang, the most feared Alpha in the werewolf world. For Darius, the marriage is not about love. It is a calculated arrangement designed to silence the pack council and protect his throne. His curse ensures that every woman who becomes his true mate dies before the bond completes, and Seraphina is expected to be no different. But the contract goes wrong. Seraphina survives the Alpha’s mark, weakening Darius’s ancient curse and awakening a dangerous obsession he refuses to acknowledge. As rival packs close in and whispers spread about the “human bride” who did not die, Seraphina begins to uncover the truth about her bloodline—a power deliberately erased from werewolf history. Bound by a contract meant to be temporary, hunted by those who fear what she represents, and trapped with an Alpha who never intended to keep his bride alive, Seraphina must decide whether to remain a pawn in a political marriage… or claim the bond that was never supposed to exist. The contract forbids love. Breaking it may cost them the world.
