Book 2: "The Dark Pact"

Summary
As the battle intensifies and Riley's resistance falters under Ravok's unrelenting pressure, the Demon King gives her an impossible choice: submit to him, and he will spare her pack. Despite her refusal to surrender, Riley begins to suspect Mango's betrayal, and Ravok's forces grow stronger, leaving her physically and emotionally drained.

Amidst the chaos, Mango returns, filled with guilt, but he's not alone. Ravok, seemingly weakened, emerges with a dark new ally-a powerful and menacing wolf. The dark wolf's gaze falls on Riley's pup, sending a wave of fear through her. Ravok cruelly taunts Riley, offering her survival in exchange for submission, but threatening her pup's life if she refuses.

With her body aching and her resolve tested, Riley steps in front of her pup, determined to protect them both. Despite the overwhelming odds, she refuses to back down, choosing to fight for her people and her honor rather than give in to Ravok's demands. Torn by the impossible decision, Riley's love for her pack and defiance against Ravok's tyranny become the last remnants of her strength, even as the darkness closes in.
