She was a wolfless pariah—broken, shamed, and cast out by the very pack that should have been her sanctuary.
After a year of torment and a brutal rejection from her fated mate, Killian, Lyra’s spirit is shattered. Cast out and left to die, she stumbles into the path of a man whose darkness eclipses her own—the Mad King, Caelum.
Volatile. Imperial. Unforgiving.
He claimed her on sight with a possessive mark that left her breathless with terror and a forbidden thrill. But behind his cold fury lies a man just as broken as she is—and an obsession so absolute, he would raze the world to keep her.
As rebellion looms, led by the very monsters she fled, Lyra is caught between the shadows of her past and a king who is both her captor and her only hope.
Will she shatter under the weight of his crown… or awaken the legend in her blood and rise as his equal?
