About to be sold to a cruel Pack Lord before her first shift, Elowyn Froste did the unthinkable—she ran. Her witchy bestfriend, Mia, helps her disguise. Now hidden behind chopped hair, magical scent blockers, and a fake identity, she’s Elyan Froste: the newest recruit at Ashmoore's Training Academy. Her plan is simple—blend in, graduate, and disappear into a far place with certified lordship for good. But fate has other plans. Her dorm assignment? Baron Ortega. Youngest Alpha prospect in a generation. Arrogant. Obsessively competitive. And wildly handsome. Sharing a room with him was risky enough.... Until he started noticing things. The way Elyan Froste walks. Breathes. Feels. Smells. Baron doesn’t believe in weakness. But he’s suddenly haunted by dreams of his mate. He can feel them. Sense them. Fall for them. And every time he looks at Elyan, his wolf goes mad. Now, with secrets tightening like noose-ropes and heat building beyond control, Elowyn must survive the academy, hide the truth.... And avoid the one person she was forced to belong to. His Room. Her Secret. Some lies are impossible to hide when fate is watching.

By day, Damon follows her rules in the kitchen: chopping, kneading, burning his fingers, and surviving her sharp mouth. By night, she follows his. Damon Blackwell is a cold, dangerous billionaire who hates Christmas, women, and anything that smells like joy. Haunted by tragedy and trauma, and memories of the girl he once loved and lost, he lives like a machine: money, control, and pleasure without attachment. Then his grandparents and three ruthless brothers dare him to do the impossible: Live like a normal man for 12 days to Christmas: no staff, no luxuries, no protection, no control and no bad temper. He has to change and be easygoing with investors. Fail, and he loses the biggest business deal of his life. Indulgence is over for him. The only place Damon knows he can grab survival?

The man who haunted her dreams after she broke his heart back now stands in her kitchen offering a deal she can’t refuse: Cook for him. Sleep with him.

Can Merry resist the billionaire who once stole her heart… or will old flames burn hotter than ever under the snow, the lights, and the Christmas feelings?
