18+ Content Warning - Read at your own discretion! +++ Werewolves have been extinct for as long as Evoni has been alive. Or at least, she thought they were. A dark and vacant woods has always bordered her town, but she has never dared enter them. Not until she makes the trek alone into the forest to search for a flower said to boost werewolf fertility. Only to encounter a terrifying and surprisingly gorgeous werewolf, who takes her back to his pack, that has remained hidden from humans for centuries. Unable to return home, Evoni faces the reality that her captor is the last Alpha, and he has tasked her with solving a single issue - werewolves failing fertility. The longer she spends in his pack, the stronger her connection to the sexy and forbidden Alpha becomes, and the closer she comes to fulfilling an ancient prophecy that foretells a mate bond between a human and an Alpha that will unite werewolves and humans once and for all.

I knew my best friend since childhood loved me. I knew it.

He'd gotten married while I was on an overseas business trip to my worst enemy.

I was never supposed to be on his radar. I do my job, keep my head down, and know better than to stare too long at men like him. But one look turned into a warning. One warning turned into a promise.

They were supposed to take on the world together. Bailey Brooks and Luke Carter grew up with the same dream , guitars in their hands, music in their bones, and a future that always included each other. Small-town kids with big voices and nowhere else to go, they left everything behind for Nashville believing love and music would carry them through whatever came next. But dreams don't always grow at the same pace. And sometimes the person who believes in you the most is also the one you push away. Years later, success has come at a cost neither of them expected. The life they once imagined together has splintered into silence, distance, and choices that can't be undone. When Bailey disappears from the spotlight without explanation, the world fills the quiet with rumors. Luke knows better than anyone that the truth is far more complicated. And far more painful.

I was never a woman who believed in promises. They always felt like wishes, soft things people made when they didn't know how else to hold on. Judas Mercer made them anyway. And somehow, he kept every single one. He waited for me when the world didn't. Built a life while I was still learning how to belong to one. Loved me in a way that I could finally trust. What I didn't realize was how much of our life already existed beyond me. How some bonds didn't begin with us but were already settled and familiar. She was a presence that had always been there. The woman from our past and our present woven into the spaces I thought were ours alone, standing there with us all along. Because Judas kept his promises. He just kept his secrets too. ~S~S~R~A~Y~N~E 🦋Perceived cheating 🦋Possessive MMC 🦋Dark romance themes 🦋high spice content
