I thought my nightmare was over. I was dead wrong.
I was sure I did the right thing by trying to take the relic dagger from Nathan Black, but it turns out, I was walking right into his trap for my friend Evelyn. Now Nathan's gone, but he used the dagger to mark my skin before Rowan defeated him as alpha.
Even though I'm home safe, the wound won't heal, and my life is unraveling.
Now, I'm being hunted by Kael, a deadly mercenary with orders to finish what the dagger started. He's cold, ruthless, and the last person I need in my life. But when he corners me, ready to strike, something unexpected happens-he hesitates.
Kael isn't just any enemy. He's my fated mate.
But instead of salvation, this bond feels like a curse. Kael's mission is to end my life. He believes the bond we feel is being caused by the dagger, and if we can sever the bond between my blood and the relic, both of us can go our separate ways.
I hope to gods he's right.
Because even though I begin to crave him, body and soul, I can't have a rogue wolf as my mate.
