Unfeeling and cruel, Alpha Aedion remains indifferent to the emotions of others, and the concept of mercy holds no place in his lexicon. He bears the weight of a heart-wrenching past that continues to haunt him, impervious even to the influence of his second chance mate, whom he resolutely keeps at a distance.

Athena Harris, subjected to unspeakable horrors, has endured the vilest of insults: whore, worthless, unusable, b***h. Stripped of her memories by captors known as hunters, she belongs to a remarkably powerful species within the realm. Her existence has been marred by their cruel manipulations, rendering her broken beyond repair. She has been used and abused, her spirit scarred.

Yet, within Athena resides a reservoir of strength and fierceness. A survivor who navigated the darkest of days without shedding a tear, she withstood the ceaseless pain inflicted by her captors. Hope for a brighter future has dwindled, lost in the abyss of her shattered existence.

Fate, inevitably, weaves their paths together. Athena encounters her soulmate, only to find herself repeatedly trampled upon by his actions, bearing no fault of her own. Concealed within her lies a shadowed past, unbeknownst to the Alpha who dominates her life.

But what unfolds when Alpha Aedion commits a grave mistake, resulting in the loss of his beautiful mate—the very essence of his life?

Athena, a tainted human burdened with a haunting history, and Alpha Aedion, entangled in the shadows of his own dark past—two souls grappling with misconceptions, deceit, betrayal, and brokenness. Will they manage to find a glimmer of light amidst their tumultuous journey?

In a world where Athena resists and defies, Alpha Aedion asserts his dominance and control. Yet, what transpires when the one meant to safeguard and shield her instead delivers the harshest blow by rejecting her?

Yearning for a destiny that guarantees safety, Athena finds herself irrevocably tied to a dark and heartless Alpha as her mate.

Amidst their shared anguish, will these two shattered souls unravel the web of misunderstandings and deceit, ultimately discovering the light that has eluded them for so long?
