The Ruins By Scott Smith

Naya, the only daughter of the most powerful Alpha of the Moon Pack, watches her world collapse at the age of fifteen when her parents are brutally executed for treason by King Nolan. Stripped of her title and protection, she is condemned to a life of slavery within the very pack that once revered her. For five years, she survives on scraps, enduring humiliation and cruelty—until the Moon Goddess intervenes and binds her fate to Ethan, her childhood friend. But Ethan rejects her. Though forced to marry her by divine decree, Ethan treats Naya with nothing but disdain, subjecting her to abuse and betrayal. During a mandatory full-moon shifting ceremony, Ethan exposes her inability to shift to Alpha King Benjamin—Nolan’s ruthless son. Declared unfit to remain in the pack, Naya narrowly escapes banishment when Benjamin condemns her instead to palace slavery until she can awaken her wolf. Burning with hatred for the king whose family destroyed her own, Naya views the palace as her chance for revenge. Yet fate takes an unexpected turn. Despite being bound to another, King Benjamin finds himself drawn to Naya’s quiet strength and warmth. Their forbidden connection deepens, blurring the line between vengeance and love. When jealousy and ambition collide, Ethan and the king’s mate, Tanya, conspire to destroy Naya. Kidnapped and poisoned, Naya loses her unborn child, and her trust shatters when deception convinces her that Benjamin has betrayed her. She flees the palace, vowing revenge once more. Months later, Naya returns—disguised, hardened, and ready to strike. But at her public trial, the truth finally comes to light. Betrayals are exposed, enemies unmasked, and Naya must decide whether to cling to vengeance or reclaim the love and destiny that were always meant to be hers.
