A sacrificial bride. A poisoned Alpha. One ceremony changes everything.
Emily, an orphaned Omega with no pack standing, is shoved onto the altar as a substitute bride for her cousin. The ritual demands a Hill daughter's blood to cure Nightshade Alpha Ethan, who lies unconscious from Moonshade poison. She braces for a silent, loveless existence tethered to a stranger who cannot move or speak. Instead, the ceremony snaps Ethan awake, and his first conscious act is an absolute fixation on her. His sudden, fierce devotion becomes her shield, letting her stop flinching and start calculating as she navigates pack politics and hidden enemies.
