Ryan’s first mistake was moving in with a vampire. His second was thinking he could ignore him. Thorne D’Aurelius—the Second of the Vampire Court, dangerous, unreadable, and an absolute nightmare of a roommate—never turns the music off. But when Ryan, a newly awakened omega wolf, discovers the truth, everything changes: Thorne can hear every thought he tries to hide. And with his first heat approaching, every fantasy becomes louder… every craving harder to resist. Thorne knows it. Uses it. Plays him with words sharp enough to draw blood. Enemies. Roommates. Obsessions. And no escape—because how do you run from the monster who sleeps a wall away and lives inside your head?

Things didn’t look great, not only did I lose the last piece of my life as I stared down at the foreclosure notice on my mothers house. I now had to face the realisation she will probably never come home. Watching someone wither away, knowing they were once full of life, once the biggest influence in your life and now they were reduced to skin and bone, bedsores, and a machine breathing for them as the life slowly drained out of them, bloody s*ck*d. I thought for sure that would be the hardest day of my life when they rang me to tell me there was nothing else they could do for her. Yet I still held out hope, held onto the possibility no matter how slim it was that she would return to me, just wake up like nothing happened. Scrunching up the foreclosure notice, I toss it in the bin before adjusting the box tucked under my arm. I walked to the trunk of my car dropping my mothers alcohol stash in it. I couldn’t leave it in the storage locker. No flammable liquids but I couldn’t bring myself to throw it out either, mum loved a drink. I hated that she was a drunk but now I would give anything to see her with her drink in her hand while laughing and telling me stories. Sighing, I close the trunk and hop in my car looking at my childhood home one last time before I say goodbye to this part of my life. I was truly on my own.

"You were pregnant when you ran," he murmured, his voice trembling with disbelief. "And I—" his throat bobbed as he swallowed hard, silver eyes shimmering with raw pain, "I didn't even know." I bit my lip until I tasted blood, tears stinging my eyes. "You rejected me," I choked out, fury and heartbreak colliding. "You humiliated me, Killian! I had nothing left... nothing but him. I couldn't let you or anyone in that cursed pack destroy him too." For the first time since I'd met Killian, the ruthless Alpha looked utterly broken. "Aria..." he whispered hoarsely, "I've made a mistake I can never forgive myself for." When Alpha Killian rejects his fated mate under the Blood Moon—publicly shattering her pride and heart—Aria runs, powerless, hunted, and carrying a secret he never knew: his child. Years later, fate drags her back into the world she swore to escape... and back into the arms of the ruthless Alpha who once destroyed her. But this time, Aria isn't the weak, broken girl he cast aside. She's stronger. Wilder. Dangerous. And Killian will stop at nothing to claim what he lost: the mate he rejected, and the family he never knew he had.When dark secrets unravel and the Blood Moon prophecy resurfaces, love and vengeance blur into one. Will Aria forgive the man who ruined her life... or destroy him before he breaks her again?
