As the moon hung high, casting its light upon them all,
No sooner than its rise, did that moon and its light fall.

For the past year, eighteen-year old spare heir and werewolf Michael has lived in the shadow of loss. Unable to shake the guilt of not saving his older brother, grief haunts him like a second shadow, and to make things worse, a recurring dream of a mysterious girl won't let him go.
When that dream leads him to the once forbidden Woodlands, Michael makes a chilling discovery: a living Fae. Not only should her presence be impossible, as her people no longer inhabited this world, her existence is dangerous. For her. For him. For his mother, whose role in helping the Fae escape the almost war a year ago would be seen as treason by his pack and his father, the ruthless Alpha.
To protect his mother, Michael must smuggle the fairy to the new Fae world before anyone discovers her. To do that, he'll need the help of the Witches-his best friend Zanna, in particular-but tensions between the Wolves and Witches are high as both are fighting to claim the abandoned Woodlands. And if he cannot ensure neither side's claims are successful, the fairy will be exposed along with his mother's secret.
But protecting the fairy comes at a price. Michael wants to hate her, but finds himself drawn to her in ways that threaten his mission and his heart. And with a forced betrothal looming over him, falling for the fairy is absolutely not an option.
Torn between loyalty and truth, duty and heart, Michael must decide who he is: the Alpha's son, the grieving brother, his mother's protector, or something else entirely. Because the Woodlands are stirring again, and Michael's choice could bring war or redemption.

Ivy felt like she had been lit on fire, a cold icy fire that was burning her alive.
"I wish you were dead", she hissed at him as she broke the kiss.
"Do it, kill me", he hissed back.
She went for his throat, the lessons definitely helped but she was no match for him.
"One day you'll be able to best me. Lucky for me that day isn't today."
Ivy had wanted to claw his eyes out, "you're a monster."
"So is everyone."
"Not everyone kills seventeen guards."
"You're right, only the strong kill in our world. Too bad we don't live in a fairytale."
"Don't dare make me feel insane, it's insane, the world we live in!
The death that surrounds SkyWood is sickening!"
"It's utter insanity, love."
"I hate it", "as do I."
Than release me from our bargain! Let me live a life free of you!"
Ivy said talking of her sworn allegiance to him for two years.
"No!" He said before slamming his mouth back to hers.
Their kisses were insanity.
Crazy to a fault.
"I love you."
Ivy hated when he said it, "no you don't.
One with a black heart cannot love."
"I fucking love you with my whole black heart."
"You don't know what love is.
You love the idea of love.
You love how loving me makes you feel."
"And how does loving you make me feel?"
"Like your heart isn't black."
"Fair enough."
They kissed urgently, Ivy removed her pants while he ripped her shirt from her body....
