They think she’s a myth. A prize to claim. A body to breed.

“Cute. Let them try.”

Living among humans as “Astrid”, selling potions and pawning herbs to keep her ailing father alive, Rhiannon Astrid Vale has mastered the art of survival—hiding her claws, her scent, and the dangerous secret nestled in her blood. 

She’s not just a werewolf. She’s alpha-born. And worse? She can hear every filthy, possessive, broken thought a wolf dares to have about her.

When a hunt for rare herbs spirals into a nightmare, Rhiannon is captured and dragged into the brutal world of werewolf politics on an auction block. Sold to the infamous Bloodfang Pack—a council of five rival alpha brothers barely held together by blood and violence—she becomes the most valuable prize in existence.

To them, she’s a rare, breedable, power incarnate.

To her? They’re five obsessions waiting to be unravelled.

Because Rhiannon isn’t just rare—she’s the living legacy of the she-wolf who cursed their kind two centuries ago. Her blood holds the key to saving or dooming every last one of them. And whether the curse breaks or burns depends on one thing:

Who she chooses.

Trapped between dominance and desire, with five alphas clawing for her body and her loyalty, Rhiannon doesn’t beg. She seduces. She manipulates. She makes them burn for her until they’re ready to tear each other—and the world—apart.

But as passion twists into something terrifyingly close to love, and every kiss threatens to unravel her defences, Rhiannon faces a brutal choice:

Burn the pack from within to save herself...
Or let herself be devoured by five alphas who would bleed the moon dry just to keep her.

She came in chains. She might just leave crowned in blood.

The bond pulsed like a slow-burning brand beneath my skin, calling me to her.


I didn't think I'd be falling for any girl so soon, but here she was—the girl the Moon goddess chose for us. She defied me, and I hated it, but it made me want to challenge her even more and claim her, then put her underneath my body.


But things weren't in the game for love and sex anymore. She just lost her father while he tried to kill one of my brothers. 


How was I to act when her father committed a grave offence, and knowing the elders, they must have gotten wind of it?


Rhainnon stirred a little in her sleep, muttering a word that made my heart clench even more.


She didn't need to wake up and see the war I was losing behind my eyes. Didn't need to see how close I was to surrendering to something I can't afford to feel.
