Teeth. Blood. Darkness.

When Patty Woodworth claws her way out of the woods, she's the only survivor. She's also awakening to a world of fangs, primal hunger, and an alpha who burns with terrifying certainty: she's his fated mate.

Alpha Draco doesn't negotiate. Doesn't soften. Doesn't release what he claims.

But Patty's blood hides something ancient—something older than the pack itself. Something worth killing for. In a world where pack law is absolute and destiny wears teeth, she realizes too late: the worst thing that could happen wasn't dying in the woods.

It was surviving them.

Claiming her may cost Draco everything. Or save them all.
