Synopsis

He tore up the wedding contract in front of everyone—then shoved a moon-ring onto my finger instead. I was the replacement. The trash bride no one wanted. But Kael Mercer, the wolf heir everyone feared, looked straight through the crowd and said my name like it was the only one that mattered. I only crashed that wedding to steal back my mother's perfume formula. My stepsister was supposed to marry the monster. But the second Kael's ring locked around my finger, I felt it—the pull, the heat, the way his wolf went silent under my skin. He doesn't love me. He needs me. Without my blood, he loses control. Without his protection, I'll never find out who really killed my mother. So I did what no one expected: I flipped the contract. Now the alpha heir works for me. Or we both lose everything. But when the next eclipse hits and his beast takes over, will I still be the one holding the leash—or the one pinned beneath him, begging for mercy I'll never get?
