VesperNocturne
She was taken from everything she knew. Given to strangers. Told to build a family.
Sarah fields didn't believe in rescue. As a single mother working double shifts, she believed in survival, until the night she and her children simply ceased to exist on Earth.
She wakes on the Vulfar homeworld, delivered to a dying wolf-like race that mates for life and dies without bond. Her assigned pack, Korrin the broken alpha, Drenn the strategist, Soll the healer, don't force her. They wait. They guard. They bring her food they won't eat until she does.
They treat her like royalty. Like choice. Like home.
But Sarah remembers the white light. The Architects' smiles. The moment she realized refusal meant orphaning her children.
Now she must navigate an alien culture where females command and males protect, where scent determines compatibility, and where her growing feelings might be real, or might be engineered. The Vulfar promise her everything. The Architects promise her nothing.
The only promise Sarah trusts is the one she makes herself: her family, her terms, her choice.
Even if choosing means staying with the wolves who were sent to claim her.
