She was supposed to disappear. He was supposed to let her go. Vivian Chen fled her family's empire the night before her arranged marriage-taking nothing but a stolen flash drive and a secret that could destroy three dynasties. For five years, she built a new life in a small coastal town, raising her daughter alone, pretending the past couldn't find her. Then he walked into her bookshop. Gideon Ashford. The man her family sold her to. The cold-blooded heir who was supposed to be her husband-until she vanished and humiliated him in front of the entire financial world. He says he's here for the flash drive. She knows he's lying. Because Gideon doesn't just want the evidence she stole. He wants answers. He wants revenge. And when he discovers the four-year-old girl with his mother's eyes, he wants something far more dangerous. Her. But Vivian isn't the frightened heiress who ran five years ago. She's a mother now. A survivor. And she'll burn his empire to the ground before she lets him take her daughter. The only problem? The man hunting her might be the only one who can save them both.

And now she's slipping through his fingers.

Xyra Lumina Crescent, first born child to two full-blooded alphas and an alpha female. Xyra is hidden away from her pack, from the outside world and even from herself as she has no idea why she cannot shift or why she is hidden away in a temple to train, train and train. Far away from her family and younger siblings, Xyra sought freedom and to be able to be with her family. But she is trapped and watched by the ladies of the temple of females. A vision of an attack on her pack force Xyra to break free in other to save her parents who would die in the attack, and her people who would be taken hostage. Xyra returns home, but she does not just get the easy life she thought she would get. She discovers that maybe staying at the temple where life was easy was better after all. Who is Xyra? And what is The Last Daughter? ____ 'What will happen if he finds his mate and she dies?' I asked the most obvious question. Dad's wolf gave mine a look. 'Xyra, did you see anything?' 'Yes, not clear, but a strong enough warning. He's going to run mad, isn't he?' 'All lycans do when they lose their mates. Which is why the goddess restrain from giving them one.' Which was true. With how easy they lost their minds after losing their erasthasis, it was best they didn't have one. No one wanted a powerful lycan to go wild and wipe out an entire population, just because their soulmate died. It indeed was why they didn't get one too often. In fact, one could stay for a thousand years and not hear of a lycan finding a mate. They usually just fall in love and get married or get married without love. The king was the strongest like I read. If him losing his mate would turn him against the entire population of living creatures, then maybe it is my duty to protect her. Maybe, just maybe this is what I am meant to do.
