Finn, 19, never belonged to himself.
Sold off by his own blood as collateral for a massive debt, he is a sacrificial pawn delivered directly to the gates of the most dangerous power in Forks, Washington: the reigning Lycan Cartel. They don't deal in money; they deal in territory, loyalty, and blood. Finn is quiet, yielding, and desperately submissive-a heartbreakingly vulnerable combination when tossed into a world ruled by Alphas.
Darian Thorne, 28, leads the Cartel.
Brutal, ruthless, and terrifyingly handsome, Darian is an Alpha who has built his empire on unbreakable rules and violent control. The moment he lays eyes on the boy who was delivered as payment, he sees not a victim, but a valuable asset-a beautiful, fragile thing to be claimed and dominated. Finn's spirit is broken, and his inherent nature to submit is a hunger Darian is determined to satisfy... and possess entirely.
Under the cold gaze of the ever-present full moon and the suffocating canopy of the Olympic National Forest, Finn must learn to obey the Cartel's harsh code and Darian's absolute commands. The consequences for rebellion are deadly, but the pull between them-a possessive hunger mixed with desperate need-is even more dangerous. In a world where the only law is the Silver Rule, one wrong move can turn the deepest bond into the deadliest betrayal.
