Sunghoon has spent years in disguise, his scent sealed and his past buried. Living as a beta in the outer territories, he's stayed safe by staying invisible, until an alpha prince lays siege to his town.
Heeseung isn't like the other alphas. He doesn't want to own Sunghoon, he wants Sunghoon's help. With the kingdom on the edge of war and secrets buried in old ruins, they strike a deal. Sunghoon will guide him through the forgotten lands. In return, Heeseung will protect his secret.
But as old instincts stir and trust grows where fear once lived, the line between survival and something more begins to blur.
