Description:
I swore I'd never return to the pack that cast me out and the mate who rejected me.
And for the second time, I broke that promise.
After reclaiming the ashes of the sacred banyan that fueled our kind's strength, I thought I'd be unstoppable. But when I saw Koen again, desperate and broken, I couldn't leave him behind. Not again. Not when he needed me.
Defying our pack's laws, I brought him into our sanctuary, risking everything without a second thought. I told myself it was temporary. That I could keep our worlds separate.
But having an outsider - an ordinary wolf - among us soon stirs trouble. Whispers of unrest are spreading. Loyalties are shifting. And I'm beginning to realize that loving him isn't just dangerous for me - it's a threat to my entire pack.
Because Koen isn't an Ashen Wolf. And if I can't find a way to keep the peace, keeping him here might destroy us all.
