I've spent years in these rain-soaked cedar groves, chaining the beast inside me before it devours everything.
Exiled. Forgotten. The pack's reject, too feral for their tidy rituals.
I thought isolation was my cage. My salvation.
Until she stumbled into my territory-a sharp-tongued outsider bound by oaths she never chose, her divided loyalties pulling like a fresh kill's scent.
One whiff of her, and the frenzy hit. Sweat-slick skin slamming together on cabin furs, my knot locking us in that first brutal collision. No words. Just raw need burying deep, her body yielding even as her eyes spat fire.
She fights it, this woman who glows like sun-warmed meadows after the storm, all unhurried tangles and hidden heat begging to be claimed.
But surrender to me means breaking her pack's chains. Defying the wild call that could unmake us both.
Her touch unleashes what I've buried-the thunderous growl demanding I breed her soul-deep, knot her until the equinox madness claims me forever.
I've haunted these shadows to stay sane, but she represents everything I crave and can't trust: tamed fire laced with betrayal's edge.
One knot-deep frenzy amid the towering cedars, bodies glistening and locked, and I'm confessing truths I swore to silence.
What if her independence shatters me worse than the pack ever did? Or worse-what if I let her in, and the beast wins?
A full-length omegaverse shifter erotic romance featuring an exiled feral alpha and a ritual-bound pack outsider.
