She rejected him. He ruined her. But she took the one thing he can’t live without.

Elena was meant to be Alpha. She was born to lead until her father strips her of her birthright and gives it to her younger brother. Furious and desperate to reclaim control of her own destiny, she does the unthinkable.

She sleeps with her father’s greatest enemy.

But Alpha Axton is more than just a rival—he’s her fated mate. And he’s been searching for her, not for love, but for revenge, power, and a chance to destroy her father’s pack from the inside.

The next morning, Elena rejects him, walking away before he can trap her in his ruthless schemes. But Axton is a man who does not take rejection lightly. His retaliation is brutal—a leaked video, a shattered reputation, a father who disowns her. With nowhere left to turn, Elena flees.

She thinks she can outrun him.

But she carries a secret neither of them expected—she’s pregnant. And when she disappears, she takes something Alpha Axton never planned to lose.

His sons.

Now, he’ll stop at nothing to get them back.

He wants his heir.

He wants his mate.

And Elena will learn that no one runs from the Alpha.

Author’s Note — Before You Read

Welcome, lovely dark souls.

This book isn’t for the faint of heart. If you’re looking for a sweet fated mates romance where the Alpha worships the ground his Luna walks on… You won’t find that here.

This is a story of betrayal, obsession, and redemption. A world where fate is a cruel, secrets can destroy entire packs, and love isn’t always soft—it’s sharp, raw, and has claws.

Our heroine? She’s been exiled, humiliated, and left to fend for herself.
Our Alpha? He’s possessive, ruthless, and out for blood.

But revenge is a dangerous thing, and second chances don’t come easy.

So, if you’re ready for forbidden tension, betrayal, and a Luna who refuses to bow— then this is the book for you.

Just know… once the bond is forged, there’s no turning back.
