A broken bond is a death sentence. A rejected mate is the only cure.

Sophie Vale was a ghost long before she returned to the Ashcroft pack. Five years ago, her fated mate—the powerful and cold Alpha Bodhi—rejected her in front of everyone, shattering their bond and forcing her into a life of survival as a rogue healer. She never planned to come back, but a literal rot is eating the pack from the inside out, turning wolves feral and leaving a trail of bodies in its wake.

The "bond rot" isn't just a random curse; it’s a living infection feeding on the jagged edges of their severed mate bond. Bodhi is infected, and as the Alpha, his decay is poisoning the very land he rules. To save the pack, Sophie must do the one thing she swore she’d never do: reunite with the man who broke her. But the bond between them hasn't just survived—it has mutated into something hungrier and more dangerous than before.

As the shadows of the past collide with a new, ancient evil, Sophie and Bodhi are forced into a desperate ritual to mend what was destroyed. If they fail to weave their souls back together, the rot will consume every wolf in the territory. But if they succeed, they might find that a bond forged in fire and betrayal is stronger than any fate ever intended.

The Alpha rejected her. The curse claimed him. Now, they must bond or bleed together. Read The Alpha's Broken Mate today.
