After Seraphina's mother dies, she lives a normal life as the daughter of a respected Alpha in her small pack—nothing too intimidating. Her father is her steadfast support. However, her stepmother poisons him, a cruel blow. Before she can grieve, they deem her useless and sell her to a formidable Alpha who is feared for breaking Omegas, not protecting them. When she arrives, the situation feels strange: the Alpha doesn't mistreat her. Instead, he observes her because her scent unsettles him, attracts him, and confuses his senses. He dismisses it as his instincts while she struggles to survive. In a world where her family betrays her, trust is scarce, and love appears dangerous. They begin to develop an unintended, risky connection—something they both want but fear to admit.
