Hours before her sacred mating ritual, werewolf warrior Freya overhears her fiancé confessing that he merely used her to win political election while loving her stepsister. Wild with fury, Freya guzzles celebratory wine in the family cellar, falling into an intoxicating one-night encounter with a masked intruder. Seeking retribution, Freya swaps bridal veils on wedding morning, letting her stepsister claim the deceitful politician while Freya willingly boards a naval dreadnought to wed Alaric, the reputedly monstrous Sea Devil.
Stepping onto the flagship deck, Freya is stunned to discover that the dreaded sea beast is actually the breathtaking stranger who shared her bed. Even more complicating, an embryonic alpha cub is already developing within her womb. Bound by salt water and political warfare, Freya must navigate pirate rivalries, command sea battles, and secure her own throne beside a ruthless naval warlord who hungers for her loyalty.
