This is a dark story with many upsetting themes and triggers. At first, Corinna ran, not from love, but from the crushing weight of her birthright, the terror of a fated bond she wasn’t ready to accept, and the scars of PTSD that still whispered her ex would one day find them. Though Wyatt knows she is alive, fear keeps her silent and distant. After months in near-total isolation, healing beside someone who once knew her mother, she finally finds the courage to reach out. For Wyatt, those months are a special kind of torture. Knowing his mate lives but refuses to answer him is almost worse than not knowing at all. He holds his pack together while unanswered calls and unreturned messages slowly break him. When Corinna finally makes contact, the end of the silence gives him and his allies the strength to begin pushing back against the ruthless Council. As time passes, Corinna cautiously lowers her defenses around Wyatt, allowing herself to see what a true mate bond and a real family are meant to be. But just as it seems safe for her to step out of hiding, Alpha Xander and the Council discover the Sanctuary and launch a brutal attack, forcing Wyatt to hide her once more. When Wyatt uncovers the Council’s darkest secret, victory seems within reach until Xander slips away and finds Corinna first. Alone and powerless, she faces him at the worst possible moment, with Wyatt arriving too late. Xander believes he has finally won. He has no idea he has crossed a line that will awaken something unstoppable. Now the question remains: can Corinna pull Wyatt back from the edge and end Xander’s reign of terror once and for all?
