I didn’t volunteer. I was sacrificed. In the brutal territory of Velmora, girls like me are nothing but breeding stock. My father handed me over like cattle to the Alpha Selection where surviving means being claimed by a wolf stronger than fear itself. But no one told me there were two Alphas. No one warned me about the twins: Kael, the violent one with rage in his veins, and Jarek, the cold one who told me to run… then watched while his brother nearly killed me. I was never meant to survive this place. I was never supposed to feel anything but pain. But they felt something. And that makes me dangerous. They think I’ll break. Maybe I will. But I’ll drag them down with me. ……... In Velmora, the Alpha Selection is sacred and brutal. Girls are offered, judged, and claimed. None return the same. Amber is human. She was supposed to be overlooked. Disposable. But when she steps into the twin Alphas’ den, something happens no one expected. Kael wants her dead. Jarek wants her gone. But the bond won’t let go. As whispers of an impossible connection stir, Amber finds herself entangled in a supernatural truth Velmora was never ready to face. A human girl shouldn’t be able to bond with Alphas. Unless she’s not just human.

Someone she never knew was capable of loving anyone but himself.

With every end, there is a new beginning. These are the unaltered cycles that have raged on for century after century. Each century had its collection of civilizations.
