Everyone fears the Cursed Alpha.
Everyone except the woman destined to break him.
Kaelan Blackthorn is a billionaire CEO by day and the Alpha of the Blackthorn Pack by blood.
Born with a deadly curse, he has learned to control the wolf inside him—but the truth remains unchanged: Any mate he marks will die.
He has already lost control once and the massacre that followed still haunts him.
Since then, he has vowed never to take a mate.
Never bond.
Never risk another life.
But when Lyra Hale crosses into his territory, everything changes.
Her scent calms the violent wolf inside him.
Her touch silences the curse that never stops whispering for blood.
And the mate bond snaps into place the moment he sees her.
That terrifies him more than anything.
Because Lyra isn’t just his mate—she is the only one who can break his curse…
or trigger it completely.
Now every pack wants her—some to use her, some to kill her.
And Kaelan becomes the only one who can keep her alive.
As dark forces awaken and forgotten bloodlines rise, Lyra must decide:
save the Alpha fated to end her life or flee before their bond consumes them both.
But Kaelan’s wolf has already decided:
curse or not, she is his.
