When Selene Nyxbourne, oldest daughter of the Nyxbourne pack, discovers she is carrying a child that is not her mate's, her world is upended. Cast out and branded a traitor, she becomes a hunted exile.
Fleeing into an inhospitable expanse of barren land, Selene crosses paths with Ruvala, a lone wolf with a shadowed past and amber eyes that burn with a fierceness to rival the sun. As assassins and hunters trail their every footstep, Selene and Ruvala must navigate a land where every shadow is a potential threat and even a single moment of carelessness can get you killed.
With her unborn child possessing an ancient power she does not yet understand, their very existence has become a threat to a madman who is intent on sending their world further and further towards the darkness. But in an unforgiving world where even love may be a death sentence, can Selene truly outrun the rage of a madman—and embrace the true mate who was destined to find her in the ashes?
[The pacing in this story is slower than most, for those that love slowburn romance and more character driven world building. It will not be for everyone.]
