The Wolf Who Owed Me One Night

Rafe Calder crashed through Nia Vale’s locksmith shop bleeding, half-shifted, and hunted—then pressed a claw to her throat and begged her not to open the safe she had just cracked. Inside was a bloody silver tooth… and a recording from her supposedly dead brother. The city’s official hunters sealed the block, leaving Nia trapped with the dangerous wolf-shifter who could tear her apart—or protect her from everyone outside. When her blood suddenly suppresses his moon-fever, Rafe demands a thirty-day protection contract, but every touch makes it harder to tell whether he’s guarding her or claiming her. As Jonah’s recordings expose a blood pact tied to the disappearances, Nia realizes the smiling director hunting Rafe may be preparing to sacrifice the entire city. When the contract expires, will Nia use her blood to save Rafe—or break the pact by sacrificing the last person she loves?
