Nyla Ashworth was never supposed to survive her own birth.
White hair. White eyes. A face too strange to be called anything but a curse. Her mother tried to strangle the life out of her in the birthing bed, and something unseen strangled her mother back. Nobody in Ashworth Pack ever forgot it, least of all Nyla, who grew up wearing the word cursed like a collar. Her father remarried within the year. Her stepmother made sure every day after that hurt worse than the one before, until the invisible force that guarded Nyla started returning every cruelty tenfold, and the whole pack decided she was too dangerous to keep and too frightening to kill outright.
So they did the next best thing. They dressed her sacrifice up as an honor and marched her to the border of Vantor territory to be handed over to the moon goddess and whatever waited in the dark.
What waited was Ronan Vantor, rogue Alpha, the man whose family Nyla's pack destroyed a generation ago, the man who has spent his entire life promising himself he'd burn Ashworth Pack to the ground the first chance he got.
He finds a half dead girl bleeding out in his territory with white hair matted in frost and eyes like a winter moon, and before he can decide whether to let her die where she lies, his wolf drops to its knees.
Mate.
Ronan hates everything Nyla's name represents. He has buried packmates because of the people who share her blood. And now the goddess has handed him the one woman he can't touch without unraveling every reason he's had to keep breathing for the last ten years.
Nyla doesn't know how to be wanted. She only knows how to be discarded, blamed, and left for dead. When the Alpha who should hate her most looks at her like she's something worth keeping, she doesn't trust it, and she's not sure she trusts herself either. Because the same power that killed her mother and punished her stepmother is still inside her, restless, and it's starting to wake up around Ronan in ways neither of them can explain.
Claiming her isn't just forbidden. It's a declaration of war. Ashworth Pack wants her dead. Vantor Pack wants her gone. And the closer Ronan and Nyla get, the more it becomes clear that the thing everyone called a curse might be the only power strong enough to save both their packs, if it doesn't destroy them first.
