SHE-WOLF QUEEN: PACK OF FIVE

She was their greatest warrior. They threw her away like she was nothing. Sage Blackwood spent six years bleeding for the Crimson Howl Pack. She trained their fighters. Defended their borders. Buried their dead. And when she uncovered a corruption that went all the way to the Alpha's throne, they repaid her loyalty with silver chains and a death sentence. She escaped with broken ribs, silver-burned wrists, and a wolf so poisoned it could barely breathe. They left her in the Deadlands to die. She didn't die. Found by a mysterious Alpha named Rhett - a wolf with no pack and a past he refuses to speak about - Sage begins to heal. But Rhett isn't the only Alpha drawn to her. Three others emerge from the shadows, each one powerful, each one dangerous, and each one triggering a mate bond that should be impossible. Rhett. The protector with gentle hands and a blood debt that could destroy them all. Kieran. The exiled prince whose brilliant mind sees her as a political weapon - until his wolf decides she's something far more. Zion. The feral Alpha who has never submitted to anyone - until he laid at her feet and bared his throat. Dorian. The shadow operative who knows her secrets better than she does. Because he's been watching her for years. Four Alphas. Four bonds. One ancient prophecy that says a wolf like Sage - a Quintessence - hasn't walked the earth in five hundred years. She can bond with all of them. She can forge a pack powerful enough to shake the foundations of the werewolf world. But Crimson Howl wants her dead. Kieran's ruthless mother wants her controlled. And a darkness older than the packs themselves is waking up - drawn by the scent of a power that was never supposed to exist again. Sage didn't survive the chains and the silver and the fall to be someone's weapon. She survived to be a queen. She just has to live long enough to claim her crown.
