Tobias has always been the Beta, the loyal second-in-command, the enforcer of pack law, and the protector of his Alpha’s family. For years, he’s watched Lily Blackthorn, his Alpha’s sweet, innocent younger sister, grow into a woman. He knows she is forbidden to him, but when she goes into her first heat, the scent of her awakens something dark and primal within him.
Tobias fights it. He tries to stay away. But his wolf is relentless, whispering one undeniable truth: She is mine.
Lily has always admired Tobias, the brooding, disciplined warrior who guards her brother’s side. But when her heat takes hold, she sees the hunger in his eyes. She feels the pull between them. And she wants to surrender.
One night. One forbidden taste. And Tobias is lost.
But when the Alpha discovers their betrayal, Tobias is forced to make an impossible choice, fight for the love that could tear the pack apart, or abandon his mate to save himself.
