On the full moon of her labor, Selene is injected with wolfsbane by her fated Alpha mate Dominic, and locked in a stone cell to die. Her only sin? Bearing a baby girl unfit for the Blackwood Pack’s throne, while he hoards every resource to protect the male Alpha heir carried by his late brother’s widow.
Bleeding out and on the verge of death, she unleashes the secret she’s hidden for three years: she is the sole heir to Shadow Fang, North America’s most formidable ancient werewolf bloodline. With a forbidden ritual, she severs their mate bond, condemning Dominic to soul-ripping agony. From a discarded Luna left for dead to a reigning Alpha Queen, she’s here to settle the blood debt—with interest.
