For twelve grueling years, an iron-fisted werewolf alpha has scoured territories searching for the brave girl who saved him from death during childhood. When fate places an impoverished, desperate woman in his path, a chaotic encounter leaves her pregnant with his bloodline. Blinding arrogance leads him to dismiss her as a calculating opportunist seeking financial leverage, treating her with icy suspicion.
Trapped within his imposing mountain estate, she endures his barbed insults in silence, refusing to beg for mercy or reveal her painful past. But when an old, battered token slips from her possessions during a violent squabble, his world shatters in an instant. The very soul he vowed to cherish forever was the woman he pushed to the brink of despair.
