The Werewolf Breeding Facility was supposed to be a one-time arrangement—a discreet, carefully negotiated contract with no strings attached. For Lena Carroway, it was a chance to take control of her future, choosing her partner with precision: Rafe Thorne, a silver-eyed alpha known for his iron-clad control and his refusal to form lasting bonds. Perfect. Predictable. Safe.
But from the first moment Rafe steps into her private chamber, nothing about him feels safe. His touch is fire, his voice a command her body can't resist, and every heated encounter leaves her wanting more. The boundaries of their bargain blur with each night, until the line between transaction and obsession is nothing but a memory.
When the contract ends, Lena knows she should walk away. Rafe has other plans. Because once an alpha claims his mate under the moonlight… he doesn't let go.
