I’m the Blackthorn family’s top surgeon and their “cleaner.” I’ve handled countless messes for Evan Blackthorn. I was also his secret lover for five years. He was inside me more times than I can count, holding me tight as I came apart, kissing me with an obsession for my body he never bothered to hide. It all ended after sex one night, when he said with a casual laugh, “I should get a wife, Rachel.” “And maybe you should find a good man and get married, too.” I wasn’t angry. I just quietly said, “Okay.” In my last life, I insisted on staying by his side. It got me both my hands broken, my career as a surgeon shattered. In the end, during a raid by a rival family, he left me behind as bait, holding his brother’s widow, Sofia, tenderly in his arms. So this time, I learned my lesson. I stayed away from him. Found a new man, just like he wanted. But this time, the always cool and calculated Mafia Don lost his mind.

Selene was born a wolf, but raised in chains. Betrayed by her pack, branded a burden, and stripped of the life she should have lived, she endured years of cruelty and silence. Her only solace came in the fleeting warmth of love. A mate who saw her, cherished her and gave her the only joy she had ever known: their twin children. But fate was merciless. When death stole him away, Selene was left with grief, two children to protect, and a heart turned to ice. From that day, she buried her emotions and lived only for her twins, earning a reputation as ruthless, unfeeling and cold. Few knew the truth that behind her silence lay a woman who had survived hell and was determined never to break again. When circumstances force her into the heart of the Shadowfang Pack, Selene faces trials harsher than anything before. The wolves see her as weak prey, unworthy of their respect, yet beneath her scars lies the strength born of suffering. To survive, she must rise not as a broken widow they believe her to be, but as something greater: a mother, a warrior, and one day a queen. "Heart of the Wolf Queen" is a sweeping werewolf epic of loss, resilience, and rebirth. A story of a woman forged in fire, who learns that even in the darkest night, there is a way to reclaim the throne of her own destiny

After I fainted from the pain, I learned the truth about my mate Kaelen’s position as Alpha of the Grayswood pack. He had inherited it from his older brother, who had died in battle. Not only did Kaelen take his brother's power, but he also inherited his brother's widow, the former Luna, Lydia. I wanted to reject him and break free from our mate bond, but Kaelen wouldn’t let me. He begged me with tears in his eyes and promised, "I have to bear a pup with Lydia to truly inherit the pack. Violetta, I swear that you're the only one I love. Once Lydia is with pup, you and I can finally be together openly!" That year, Kaelen spent 54 nights in Lydia’s bed. At first, it was once a month, but soon it became nearly every two days. Finally, after the 54th night, the news came that Lydia was carrying his pup. And that was when I finally gave up hope. But when I faked my death and escaped with our pup, Kaelen went mad. He didn't care about the Alpha title he had just obtained. He searched the world over for us, desperate to find me and our pup.
