I gasp.
The footsteps are closer,
"I'm sorry." He whispers.
"Sorry?" I mumble, half dazed, half confused.
His hand slides up my neck, fitting in the curve like it was made for it.
"For this-"
And then-
The pain blooms sharp and sudden at my neck as his teeth sink in.
For a heartbeat, it eclipses everything-the spear, the blood, the world pressing in around us. My body jolts against his, a broken gasp tearing from my throat as heat flares where his teeth pierce my skin.
And then-
Everything goes black.
And I'm gone.
In a world where vampires and werewolves are sworn enemies, Atrix-the last Alpha of a dying bloodline is shackled in silver, awaiting execution under the moon that was meant to crown him. Elora, the daughter of his jailer, steps into his cell with nothing but questions and a heart she swore she'd never offer to a monster.
But fate doesn't care for war or bloodlines.
And love doesn't ask for permission.
When secrets unravel and loyalties bleed, Atrix and Elora must choose: follow the path carved by their ancestors-or burn it to the ground together.
Forbidden. Feral. Fated.
The Alpha doesn't bow... not even for love.
