“Burn me alive, Maeve. Hurt me. Break me! But don’t go — don’t fucking go — don’t make me live in a world where you’re not mine.”
    Maeve was the scrawny mate Alpha Ivan never wanted. He was unfeeling. His family mocked her. His pack shamed her. And when she miscarried their child, he called her careless—then made her best friend his breeder.
    Maeve left that night without a word. But what no one knew? She was still pregnant. A miracle from the goddess.
    Years later, Ivan is seconds from crowning his breeder as Luna and claiming the Alpha throne… when Maeve walks into the ceremony. Not the weak girl he threw away—but the kingdom’s most famous healer, rivaled by none, with a child who looks just like him.
    The bond he thought was dead still exists. The mate he rejected? Stronger than ever. And the heir he thought he lost? Still very much alive.
    Now Ivan wants them back. But Maeve didn’t return for love. She came to destroy the empire that spit her out. And this time, she’s not alone. She has his greatest enemy by her side.
