She wakes in a strange place with no name, no past, and too many strangers pretending to care.
They say she's part of the pack.
They say she's safe now.
But the forest says something else entirely.
As strange visions blur with waking life, and her shadow starts to move on its own, Isolde begins to wonder what's real-
and what was buried for a reason.
Some memories are dangerous.
Some lies keep monsters asleep.

The Betrayal
"Light up my darkness," he murmured against her bare flesh. His fingers trailed up her arm, leaving a blazing fire beneath them. His lips pressed softly against her shoulder and her eyes fluttered closed, accepting his touch. "Let go and I'll take away all of the pain." She desperately wanted to free herself from the torture of the heat, of the shift, of the sadness, but she pushed his firm chest away from her. She yearned to finally fulfill her place among the divine. She desired to guide and protect the species. She wished to eliminate the Challengers. The longer she endured the pain, the more power she would attain to help her fulfill her responsibilities. To the men who watched her ascend, it looked as if she was interacting with thin air, but she knew he was there with her. She smiled softly at him, caressing his cheek. "My Darkness, let the pain fester within me. I crave it." * The Betrayal is a part of The Marking Trilogy and cannot be read as a stand-alone book. The Marking must be read first.* Cover by @Finding_BriaComplete
