On the eve of his 18th birthday, Caleb's life shattered. As the third-born son of a former Beta, he expected to shift into a strong Beta wolf like his father and brothers. Instead, the Moon Goddess had other plans-she made him an Omega. Before he could even process the betrayal of his own body, his pack turned on him. Branded as nothing more than a pawn in their power games, they sent him to a breeding facility, forcing him to bear a child he was never allowed to hold. Escaping that nightmare, Caleb built a new life as a Deputy Sheriff in a quiet town, far from the suffocating grip of pack politics. But the past refuses to stay buried. When his old pack comes hunting for him, determined to drag him back into their control, Caleb faces an impossible choice-bend to their archaic laws or fight tooth and claw for the freedom he's bled for. One thing is certain: Caleb may be an Omega, but he's no one's prey.
