Tamercy
"You were meant for my brother, Rosiana. But he is in the ground, and your blood belongs to the pack. By ancient law, you belong to me."
Nineteen-year-old Rosiana Vale spent her entire life trying to be invisible. Between scrubbing greasy floors at a local diner, dodging her alcoholic father's explosive rages, and hiding her left eye-a striking, luminescent silver that people call a curse-she has survived on pure grit. Her only dream is an acceptance letter to Blood Moon University, a prestigious, isolated mountain campus that represents her only escape from hell.
But safety is an illusion.
When she arrives, she catches the eye of Nate Blackthorne, the kind, protective younger prince of the campus elite. For a brief moment, Rosiana experiences a glimpse of true warmth. But a brutal, sudden tragedy cuts Nate's life short, shattering her world before it even begins.
Then comes the nightmare.
The pack invokes a grim, inescapable tradition: If a betrothed brother dies, his chosen woman belongs to the surviving brother.
Enter Alpha Lucien Blackthorne. He is cold, lethal, and the most dangerous man in the kingdom. He didn't want this marriage, and Rosiana deeply resents his terrifying authority. But trapped together in his gilded estate, forced to honor a dead boy's legacy, a suffocating tension ignites between them. As rogue wolves gather at the borders and her silver eye begins to trigger a long-lost royal magic, Rosiana realizes she isn't just a placeholder in a monster's bed. She is the key to an empire-and the brutal Alpha who owns her will tear the world apart to keep her.
