My stepmother stole my mother’s throne. I stole my own freedom.
After years of abuse, I leave my pack with nothing but the savings from my tattoo studio—and the venom in my needles. In Crescent City, I build a new life, ink by ink. But the Moon has other plans. When the feral Alpha Damon Blackwood walks into my shop, the mate bond ignites like a brand. I slap him and walk away. I didn't run five hundred miles to kneel for another tyrant.
Then I meet his enemy, Cassius Vane. A second bond snaps into place. I am a Dual-Mate—a prophecy wolf whose choice can unite or destroy all packs.
Now both Alphas want me. My stepmother wants me dead. And a ancient evil is waking.
I am not a weapon. I am not a prize. I am the serpent’s bride.
And I choose no one until they earn me.
