Run before the moon rises. Hide before the wolves scent your blood. And never, ever let an Alpha know you were born to rule them.
I was raised to be invisible.
No name. No pack. No past.
Just a girl with silver in her veins, a forbidden mark on her skin, and a power that could turn every wolf kingdom against me.
For years, I survived by staying quiet. Moving from town to town. Keeping my head down. Pretending I was nothing.
Then Crescent Creek found me.
A hidden kingdom ruled by five dangerous wolves.
The ruthless Alpha prince who looks at me like he wants to claim me and destroy me in the same breath.
The scarred warrior who swore he would never protect another woman.
The golden-tongued charmer with secrets behind his smile.
The cold-blooded tracker who knows when I'm lying.
And the silent one—the one who watches me like he already knows exactly what I am.
They say they're giving me sanctuary.
A bed. A roof. Protection from the monsters hunting me.
But sanctuary becomes temptation.
Protection becomes possession.
And every touch, every growl, every forbidden glance pulls me deeper into a bond I was never supposed to feel.
Because these wolves are not just my saviors.
They are heirs to the kingdom that slaughtered my bloodline.
And when the truth buried inside me finally wakes, it won't just break my heart.
It may start a war.
Because I am not the helpless girl they rescued.
I am the last Crescent heir.
And the wolves who want to claim me may be the same wolves destined to kill me.
