The bells in Eldhollow don’t mark time—they mark tribute. And this season, they ring for Seraphine Vale.
Her body changes overnight: swollen, aching, leaking—a sign every villager fears. Milkbound. Untouched. Chosen. When the five Alphas of Thorne ride in, they don’t ask. They take her into a mountain sanctum carved with ancient runes and older hunger, where vows are branded into flesh and obedience is drawn out drop by drop.
But Seraphine isn’t just a breeder meant to keep cursed land alive—she’s the kind of power men kill for. Her milk doesn’t merely feed desire… it feeds magic, and it rewrites the rules of the pack that claims her.
Five Alphas. One bound woman. A ritual that turns obsession into law.
As enemies close in and the mountain itself begins to answer her, Seraphine faces one impossible choice: run from what they’ve made of her… or step into it—until surrender becomes something sharper than survival.
