Banished from his pack, Kael has spent years in the shadows, haunted by violence and the weight of sins he can’t undo. Solitude is the price he pays until a desperate stranger crosses into his territory one night.
Elena is searching for shelter, but what she finds is more dangerous: a man caught between savior and beast. Kael wants her gone, yet her steady presence chips at the walls he’s built. A glance lingers too long. A brush of skin sparks fire he swore he’d never feel again.
But the forest holds no safety. Rogues close in, and Kael’s past refuses to stay buried. Protecting Elena means unleashing the ruthless side of himself he vowed to bury. Letting her near means risking the fragile hope he barely knows how to hold.
Caught between who he was and who he might become, Kael faces the one battle claws can’t win the fight to forgive himself.
Will he believe he’s worthy of love, or let his past take her too?
