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.

"I'm taking a walk," I said, keeping my tone light. "Or do I need permission to breathe now?"


"We were given orders," the taller one said. "You're not to leave the quarters unless summoned."


I raised an eyebrow. "You mean to tell me that the soon-to-be Luna of this pack… of your Alphas, can't take a stroll without being interrogated?"


They didn't answer but remained rigid where they stood.


Fine. It was time to try a different approach.


I stepped closer, lifting my chin. "Listen well. If either of you tries to block my way again, I will make it my mission to ensure you're both removed from your posts the moment I become Luna. You'll be lucky if all you're doing is guarding the pig sty."


The younger one faltered. The older and bolder one tilted his head. "Until then, you are not my Luna. And we cannot go against Alpha Kael's direct orders. For now, you are just a slave bought for their pleasure."
