Five years ago, Alpha Gideon Nightshade rejected Elara Demlow in front of their pack. Wolf-less, humiliated, and unwanted, Elara did the only thing she could. She left. Now she has a life in the human world, a career she fought for, and absolutely no intention of ever returning to the pack that treated her like she was worthless. Until Gideon shows up at her door. A mysterious curse is killing his people, and somehow, Elara may be the only person capable of stopping it. Going back means facing the wolves who once looked down on her. The Elders who still don't want her there. And worst of all, the mate who rejected her—only to discover that the bond between them isn't nearly as dead as she believed. But something about the curse doesn't make sense. Elara can see things no one else can. Strange markings appear before her eyes. A power she doesn't understand is beginning to awaken inside her. And the deeper she digs into the deaths, the clearer it becomes that her return to the Nightshade Pack may not have been a coincidence. Someone wanted her gone five years ago. Someone may still want her dead. And this time, Elara refuses to run. Because Gideon isn't the only one who has changed. And the wolf-less girl they cast aside may be far more dangerous than any of them ever imagined.

She hasn't spoken in thirteen years. Tonight, everything she has been hiding from finds her anyway. Ayla has survived by staying invisible. No wolf. No voice. No place in the pack that took her in after her family was destroyed. She kept her head down, stayed out of the way, and asked for nothing from anyone. It worked.

Her first shift happens alone in the snow, the way every important moment in her life has happened.

She understood exactly what it meant. And she made the only decision that made sense. She ran. But all three of them have her scent now. And they are already coming. She survived thirteen years of silence. Surviving them is going to be something else entirely....

He rose and moved towards me, my heart picking up its pace with every step he took. His hand stroked the side of my face, causing a tingle to rush through me and I shivered at his touch just like earlier. He leaned in and his breath fanned over my face, hot, weakening, and mind-numbing. "You should be running, Zera," he said with a voice so raw it made me shudder against him.
