Rejected. Humiliated. Broken. When Celeste’s fated mate betrayed her for a stronger she-wolf, she lost everything—her home, her status, her dignity. Cast aside as weak, she had no choice but to leave the only life she had ever known. But fate wasn’t done with her. Taken in by a powerful Alpha feared across the packs, Celeste’s suffering should have ended. Instead, it was only the beginning. Her body burned with an unbearable pain, her mind tormented by visions of something ancient—something terrifying. She was changing, evolving into something out of legend. A wolf that shouldn’t exist. As whispers of prophecy swirl around her, her ex-mate begins to regret his choice. But Celeste is no longer the helpless woman he left behind. And this time, she’s not alone. Her second-chance mate is nothing like the first—ruthless, powerful, and utterly unwavering in his devotion.

It will take strategy. It will take revenge. And when the time comes, Celeste will show them all that what remains after heartbreak… is something far more dangerous.

The words felt like a blade to my soul, severing something deep inside me. My body trembled, my Omega instincts screamed for me to submit, to plead for his love. But I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t beg for someone who never wanted me. So I ran. I ran from the whispers, the shame, the pain tearing me apart from the inside. I ran until my legs gave out, until I had nothing left—only to stumble into the hands of Dante Nightbane, the Tyrant King of the Shadowfang Empire. Where Cedric’s touch had been cold, Dante’s was searing. Where Cedric’s rejection had left me empty, Dante’s possessive gaze made something deep inside me burn.
